OK, then you're probably right , it's a buggy eg. and it would be best to give examples the work correcly to get ppl off to a good start. > > The fact that there's an offset here and a drift in the transform code > in the core is pure coincidence.

However I was seeing a more significant offset on NONE that I detailed when I split the "lancos offset" bug (principally for this reason). gg _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
