The list of needed aspect ratios can easily grow as you have the normal print formats in different parts of the world, in europe we currently have 3:2, 2:3, 3:4, 4:3, DIN paper sizes, 5:4 (monitor aspect), 16:9, 2.39:1 (IIRC, that would be wide screen DVD format if you were to create your own menus that could well come up). And that's just from the top of my head, I might have missed quite a lot that are important to other people. So my proposal would be to split up the aspect ratio into two float fields that allow entering a free form aspect just as such, an aspect x : y. If you would keep a history of the last 10 entered aspect ratios to be selected through a combobox that would be icing on the cake and make the whole selection superb... If you like I'll draw a picture of what I have in mind. regards Karl Günter _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
