Hi

Is there a simple way of repoting a bug?  Can I just post it here?

Cheers

The GIMP uses a database-backed bug tracking package called
Bugzilla. This allows us to keep track of the history of bugs,
and know which ones are fixed, when we would like the unfixed
ones to be fixed, and so on. We share this with GNOME, and the
URL is http://bugzilla.gnome.org

To enter a bug, you will need a bugzilla account. This is a very
easy process - when you ask to enter a bug (click on the New
link), if you're not logged in you will be asked for a log-in and
password, or be offered the possibility of signing up.

To enter a bug against the GIMP, click New, then GIMP, and in
the following (horrible looking) page, select a Component,
enter a summary and a description. The rest of the stuff on this
page doesn't need to be filled in, and probably shouldn't be
filled in most of the time.

And that's it. 

Guidelines for writing good bug reports are available here...
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/bug-HOWTO.html

Cheers,
Dave.

The simplest way is to point your browser to http://bugs.gimp.org and
follow the steps there. The GIMP uses GNOME Bugzilla to keep track of
bugs, enhancement requests etc.

Please check if your bug has been reported before prior to posting a new
bug.

If you're looking for a more detailed description please take a look at
http://mmmaybe.gimp.org/bugs/howtos/bugzilla.html

Hope this helps.

Sincerely,
./Brix

Re: [Gimp-user] Tool select

Hi Gary,

 I am able to select a tool and use it on the image. However I can not
 deselect the tool. I close the dialog box but the tool icon is still in

The GIMP will always have exactly one active tool. The default
tool is the rect select tool - perhaps this is what you are
expecting?

Perhaps a no-op tool might be an idea (a pointer that does
nothing except point). I'n not sure... Anyway, it doesn't
currently exist :)

 I am just starting to use GIMP. I have partially restored one black and
 white photo so far. It looks like it will be a rewarding challenge

Hope this helps, and enjoy the adventure.

Cheers,
Dave.

 regions was particularly annoying. I have read and reread the
 documentation but cannot find the answer.

 How do I get rid of the tool icon when done with it?

Sorry, but I don't understand what you are trying to do. There is
always exactly one tool selected. Why would you want to deselect it?
Having a tool selected shouldn't hurt in any way. Perhaps you can make
another attempt at describing your problem.

Just noticed that it had not been sent to the list.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the info. I was afraid that with an active tool that I was not
really using that I might accidently mess up the image. I feel better now
that I understand what is going on.

[Gimp-user] gimp-help-2 .. xi:include

2004-01-10 Thread Owen
Docbook is nearly as difficult as fonts!

Tried making the latest CVS 

cd ../html/C  /usr//bin/xsltproc --xinclude --nonet ../../stylesheets/plainhtml.xsl 
../../src/gimp.xml
Writing gimp-xrefs-en.xml for book(GIMP)
No template matches xi:include in chapter.

and 100s more of No template matches xi:include

The URL here
book id=GIMP xmlns:xi=http://www.w3.org/2003/XInclude;

doesn't seem to point to anything specific but you can find an 
XML schema for the XI namespace by hunting around that site.


Google is not much help.


Would be most grateful for any clues.
