Hello Sven and All - >> I agree that this information isn't terribly useful to the user and that >> the details of how the visual classes differ are far too esoteric. >In particular since GTK+ (or rather GDK) pretty much hides those >differences. It is extremely difficult to tell the difference between a >16bit and a 24bit display if the rendering goes through GDK. ... which basically means (if I understand you correctly) that the entire GIMP rendering pipeline and I/O to and from files, etc. is done with the advertized 24-bit color depth, but the actual display may actually use only 16-bit color, without the user knowing about it (other than by looking at the image). Interesting. Thanks again! Sally _______________________________________________ Gimp-docs mailing list Gimp-docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-docs
