Firefox has close buttons on tabs. I think gimp should have the same. > Detach (or, Move to Window, with "(new window)" as an option) This is not an option by design. There are problems we can not be solved sanely with multiple swm windows, so there can be just one swm main window.

No, theres an image bar, with pretty much identical function. > it will not ship like this. I have problem with this attitude. Its not how open-source works. If its stable, you release it and then keep adding design and features in the next cycle. 2.8 has already taken too long. People who shoudn't be building Gimp from git are doing it. Heaping on "does not match design goals exactly" style roadblocks does more harm than helps. If it fills the basic requirements and is stable, its not a release roadblock. Id like to hear other developers opinions on this. > but it is good to find out that the trivial "just put > some tabs like firefox" solution shows its weaknesses. Firefox tabs have close buttons for some time. This is just something gimp lacks at the moment. -- --Alexia _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
