I do have the feeling we draw different conclusions. to clarify what I write: import (creates new GIMP document window): bg-color-layer should be set to png bKGD. import (creates new layer): png bKGD should be merged with image pixels. > conclusion there: > GIMP's equivalent for the PNG bg color is Preferences->Display- > >Transparency I cannot agree with this. completely different intent. bg-color-layer and png bKGD are about what will the image consumers see. Preferences->Display->Transparency is about how do GIMP users gauge transparency. --ps founder + principal interaction architect man + machine interface works http://mmiworks.net/blog : on interaction architecture _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
