The question here is how to make them live together without damaging the UI consistency. And how to deal with some of the current problems with overlapping windows (how the utility windows obstaculize the working canvas when it is maximized, dragging the canvas beyond the image borders to avoid overlapping, etc). I don't think that making tabbed and floating live together is a very hard problem -- Firefox does that just fine (and it sounds like Opera does it even better). As far as overlapping windows go, I live with it -- I use focus strictly follows mouse -- Robert Krawitz <rlk@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Tall Clubs International -- http://www.tall.org/ or 1-888-IM-TALL-2 Member of the League for Programming Freedom -- mail lpf@xxxxxxxxxxxx Project lead for Gutenprint -- http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net "Linux doesn't dictate how I work, I dictate how Linux works." --Eric Crampton _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
