Here's a counter-argument. Suppose I need to make a whole bunch of fixed size images (perhaps for a slide show or to fill in spaces in a grid). I set the Fixed Size entry to 640x480 (or whatever) and make a few of them. But then I need to make some other adjustment involving a crop or rect select. I un-check Fixed, make my selection, and now I've lost the 640x480 and I'll have to type it in again. I like the idea of initializing the field the first time from the current rect, if the user hasn't typed anything in, but once the user has typed something, please don't make them re-type it. Could the field be initialized to "", instead of 100x100? Then if the user clicks Fixed when the field is blank, fill it in then with the current rect; but if it's not blank, leave it unchanged. ...Akkana _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
