Cool. I didn't know about this right-click trick. It's working greatand it's a good start. Is there a possibility to make the detachedmenu permanent? I've restarted gimp and the menu was gone.
As I said, I want to streamline my work with gimp while in tabletmode. I was thinking to have a very thin window that fully expandsinto a toolbox when the mouse enters it. The window would contain mybuttons and it would shrink once the mouse leaves it. It would also bea top window, so it would stay above the canvas. The window managerwould always display this window on the edge of the screen (thisbehaviour is very similar with that of the input panel from vista -http://www.wacom.com/vista/tablet_input.php).
I was thinking of trying a client-server system for this. The gimpwould start a server when it loads the plugins and the button windowwould be a separate app that sends whatever command the server pluginaccepts. The server would take the command and apply it on the currentimage (or, if there is no way to determine the active image, togimp.image_list()[0]). Is such a thing possible?
Thanx.
