Hi, We need to coin a name for this, I hereby declare it the CWB-tool ;)

Most single clicks are as you say easily reversed, but CWB is in my opinion one of those.

A three-step solution? Do we expect a user to enable CWB and then disable it when done? Wouldn't a user just enable it at first sight, and never touch the button again? - Which brings us back to the current behavior. The only feature you would gain by disabling it, would be to avoid the occasional accidental click - which is a useless feature compared to CWB. I don't know how big a change this would be. Currently CWB is the "resting"-tool when no other tool is selected. It should be possible to make CWB a normal tool like crop and straighten. /abrander _______________________________________________ Rawstudio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://rawstudio.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rawstudio-dev
