and only in unstable/debug builds i.e. not in the 2.6 series.

yes, it is not hidden and it is implemented.

the option associated with that is 'transient docks' (in the
'interface section of the preferences IIRC)

[Gimp-developer] is this option hidden somewhere, or it is not implemented ? (related to dock windows)

2009-01-06 Thread Cristian Secară
During the translation process I came across this tooltip:
===
When enabled, dock windows (the toolbox and palettes) are set to be
transient to the active image window. Most window managers will keep
the dock windows above the image window then, but it may also have
other effects.
===
I wanted to check my translation on the real thing, but I also want to
see this to see this option in action (sounds good to me). But I don't
know where that option is.

Is this implemented ?
(Win32 here)

The real issue is that sometimes one wants to see (or work on) more
than one image at a time, or e.g. to compare two views with different
filters.

Multiple windows each of which can have tabs might work, like a
tabbed Web browser.
