Sound logical, except if I recall correctly The GIMP loads brushes, patterns etc. on startup. Maybe if you refresh the palettes or something [I know if you have a Script-Fu you can reload the Script-Fus without restarting the app, but you have to go through a menu so it's eaiser to click on the little line at the top and make that particular menu permimantly float when editing Script-Fus], but I'd doubt it'd apply for this considering we're talking about restarting the application. If you're looking for a solution, how about learning C++ [or whatever GIMP's language is] and writing a patch yourself? -- ~Mike _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
