Do you see the "Auto" button next to the image list menu-box ...? I never knew about that, actually. Unfortunately, the resulting Layers dialog doesn't say which image it's attached to. > Nor was I able to do it from either the file menu on the toolbox or > the dialogs menu on the images. It can be done from the tab menu -> Add Tab -> Layers. It works, although it's a bit obscure (you have to know two relatively obscure things to get there). Anyway, I see two approaches for dealing with the image / layers (or similar dialog) relation: - Always attach everything relating to just one image to its image window - Use inspectors like now The former has the potential to be less confusing and would make showing several layer stacks straightforward. Size requirements for an image and its layer stack might be quite different, though. Like I said, when I can afford it, QXGA time... _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
