The tool does exactly the same but the dialog looks like Photoshop's one. > Does it? I havn't used PS since a long long time... if it looks like PS then I have to have a look at PS but I don't expect to find there highend visualisation functions like in motion picture color grading tools nor the cool discreet like preset banks... ;-) Yes exactly the same except for: - the more visual primary color selection with enhanced visualisation - powerful storage banks for test setups - a drop down preset lib - loading and saveing of settings - added compare tool - sliders with scale marks and middel point mark finally you can say it's exactly the same ;-) > The only improvement I see is the ability to see the actual influence of the overlap value on the color gradient, wich is cool, but I don't know if it's cool enough to change the whole dialog, that already works fine. > I only had an hour to made the mockup so I don't found the time to implement highlight/mid/shadow support or other needful extensions... you are right this had to be integrated for future mockups - and even I have to go step by step - next version will show a lot more maybe... ;-) Until today nobody has integrated this small cool things in a standard image editing application - not even that small things... (what sense made it to figure out complex things if even the simple ones are not realized? ;-) > Maybe it would be better for future versions to redesign the dialog adding some real enhancements to the tool, like arbitrary 3-point gradient selection and/or a curve for tweaking. In that case, the use of a wheel is better than a linear scale because it matches better with the well known color wheel scheme. > You are absolutely right - lets go and start with this - I really would enjoy to integrate all this things into a mockup and discuss pros and cons... > Gez. > > p.s.: I support the idea that Campbell Barton suggested a couple of days ago. Maybe it would be better to create a new mailing list focused on functionality discussion. This would avoid the frequent conflict user requests vs. developers priorities and would bring some fresh ideas for the project. > I don't want to bug any developer with functionality requests if this list is only focused on coding, but I'd really like to have a place for discussing features and useability issues that are also very important for the overall quality of Gimp. > That would be really great! I'm a bit modest with posting here because of that... And where to find the people from the GUI wiki?
