I hope that you both read the message in which I was suggesting touse the terms "default", "original" or "current" depending on wheresome values come from. As I explained in that message, the"original" value (read from the file) will usually override any"default" value (coming from GIMP or from the plug-in). However, some plug-ins do not even attempt to read the "original"value for some parameters because for some file formats it does notmake sense to re-use the same values as in the original file. For JPEG quality, I think that it is best to do as in Tor's patch:if the "original" value is higher than the "default", then use that.Otherwise, use the "default" so that the user is not surprised tohave a file saved with a lower quality than expected. -Raphaël_______________________________________________Gimp-developer mailing listGimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
