You might not have noticed that we have started to remove options from the user interface. However you should be aware of the fact that we try not to add new options unless there's a very good reason for it. Actually the plan was to let the plug-in previews respect the settings from gimprc that already exist: (transparency-size medium-checks) Sets the size of the checkerboard used to display transparency. Possible values are small-checks, medium-checks and large- checks. (transparency-type gray-checks) Sets the manner in which transparency is displayed in images. Possible values are light-checks, gray-checks, dark-checks, white-only, gray-only and black-only. That would of course mean that the same settings apply to plug-in previews and to image windows. Sven
