I loaded at random a 16 bit tiff image. Case A - your 2.8.4 portable version, drop the tiff file over the design area: - a GIMP Message box tells me that my file is unsupported file format - if I just click OK, the popup box close and nothing else happens - if I try to move that box with the mouse, then a Windows error box (title bar: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library) tells me that "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way, blah, blah."; another Windows error box tells me that ufraw-gimp.exe no longer works - after closing the last Windows error box, a single GIMP Message error box tells me that (1) the plugin ufraw-gimp.exe has crashed / GIMP restart is recommended and (2) opening of my image has failed - GIMP remains open, with blank drawing space If I drop the tiff file over the toolbox area, the single difference is that the last (1) and (2) GIMP error messages are shown each in separate error boxes. Case B - the official 2.8.4 installed version, either drop method: - a GIMP Message tells me this sting "Warning:\n The image you are loading has 16 bits per channel. GIMP can only handle 8 bit, so it will be converted for you. Information will be lost" - GIMP remains open, with the desired image on it, reduced to 8 bit; I can continue to work on it, if so desired Cristi -- Cristian Secară http://www.secarica.ro _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
