Hi Rob. I'm not sure I'm using correct procedures in replies etc to this list. I've not used mailing lists before except to post to the Gimp users list. I need to post to this lost because nobody replies to the user list. My quiries tend to be more technical than just how to use Gimp. There is another change of code I had to do in connection with improving Gimp for tablet use which I'llpost about. Yes, the New View isn't as much use when you use single window mode because one major use would be to tear it off to be able to do what I wanted. I really think you need to be able to do this. I'll go back to separate window mode whenever I want a separated new view but you get used to single window mode where there is less messing around with windows. The other route would be to use Display Navigation. This does have some advantages because you have more feedback on where you are. The highlighted box is OK but the dimming kills being able to see what you are doing in conjunction with the whole image. The other aspect of this facility is that Wacom screens are not as accurate as most other LCDs. I have an Eizo so I check colours more accurately with this. Ryan.
