I think the only reason this has never been implemented is that it has been in the "long term goal" the feature of making layers auto-expand as required upon any operations outside its boundaries. This "unbounded layers" feature has been on the wish list since "forever" I guess - and it would make the display of the current layer size less useful - but even them it would not be at all useless. I think having status codes for the title and status bar to be one of the most appropriate ways to display this. Maybe also add layer information to the "Imageinformation" window (a layer tab) could be done as a more visible way to do it, as adding a status code for it would make it still be too hidden away for most users. js -><- On 19 April 2014 03:45, Liam R E Quin <liam@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On Sat, 2014-04-19 at 17:56 +1200, Jehan Pagès wrote: > >> > I add a feature request to display layer dimensions somewhere in the >> > main window or the layers one.
