Ive tried to tallk to them as well and basically they say it isn't wrong, because its not fixed in a standard. I call that a poor excuse for not fixing a usability issue. Based on usability needs it needs to be handled like metacity and now I hear Compiz do it, the way GIMP expects it to work. Almost anything else and specially the current status creates a usability nightmare. I have an utility window, not registered in the task bar and its BEHIND the main window. I have no way of raising it or using it without resorting to application side workarounds. That means in gimp using tab hide&show of all docks, that might bring it up, but its a hack. _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
