No, there's no GIMP there, I did link that screenshot just to demonstrate the stacked layout: if you look at that, you may notice some of the windows are collapsed. I can't currently reproduce this layout with GIMP running for aforementioned reasons. > It might be from your prose that running gimp in "single window mode" > would address your problems, but I'm not certain, never having come > across wmii before (is it related to wm2? doesn't look like it). No, it doesn't. I don't like single window mode, it doesn't go well with my workflow. Also, last time I tried it has some issues, so it's way too early for it yet. > > P.S.

No, I'm talking about versions of GIMP starting from 2.7.*, including GIMP 2.8.0 and 2.8.4. Basically, it seems to me, the single window mode introduction has broken the multiple window mode. It doesn't matter which exactly versions, they behave the same way. I have tried different versions, and even on clean installation of Debian wheezy it behaves the same way. The only thing which could be of some importance is GTK+ version, it's 2.24.13 currently, but I've tried previously with other 2.24.* versions with same effect. > The primary testing platform for GIMP 2.6 was Debian GNU/Linux with > GNOME 2.
