Elle: I think I just fixed the two issues you mentioned (exporting with layers and importing grayscale tiffs). Could you grab the latest code and test those again, to confirm that they're fixed? (Note that there's an additional problem related to importing with premultiplied alpha that I'll haven't fixed yet.) -- drawoc On Fri, May 24, 2013 at 1:03 PM, Elle Stone <l.elle.stone@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 5/24/13, Mukund Sivaraman <muks@xxxxxxxx> wrote: >> The following file plug-ins have been revised to use GIMP's new API. >> I feel they need more testing as the changes are intrusive and the file >> types can support a variety of pixel formats.
