In addition to CMYK the issue of ICC color profiles has been raised. Photoshop offers several profiles for e.g., coated paper, uncoated paper and so on. It is clumsy to develop in Gimp, and then transfer to Photoshop just for profiling. What are the prospects of doing something in this area? Is any of it on the agenda? i am not certain what all color profiling needs. i have been following lcms mail list and still do not understand it. i have been able to use gimp and templates to make web pages and i have planned to make LaTeX pages, however my time seems to be almost up. carol.gimp.org is down right now -- for whatever reason, but i put a screenshot of a color dialog that has appeared in the new gimp. i am not certain if it meets your needs, but i would be curious to know how it fails to. http://www.gimp.org/~carol/files/colorselector.png the way to get this dialog in your gimp would be via the dialogs menu; it is called "Colors". as you can see from my screenshot, it is dockable. truthfully, if you can print an html template you can easily print a LaTeX document. if you would be interested in seeing my scripts (python) send me a note and i will provide them for you. carol ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

When I am working on an image and I want to modify the hue/saturation, the first thing I always do is move the dialog box so that it is not covering the image. Perhaps it would be an improvement if there were a way for the GIMP to remember the location of the last dialog box and then open subsequent dialog boxes there. That way, I'd only have to move the dialog box the first time. It does that already. Unfortunately a lot of window managers decided to completely ignore this setting and center the dialog instead. We have since removed the transient relationship from the tool dialog to the image window and this problem is gone. Sven It is not what I complain against.

[Gimp-user] Menus *over* the picture
Hi, I build almost everyday the cvs for gimp-2.0. Sometimes ago, I've remarked that the menus were always "on top". Moving the picture I was working on was moving it *under* the opened menus. Sometimes later, I remarked (I was happy of that) that the focus raised the picture. I've just compiled the 20040322 version on the cvs and I remarked that this feature is here again. So I have several questions: - Is it a feature or is it a bug (generally the question is the opposite, I think) ;-) ? - If it is a feature (some exchanges I have had in the past seems that it *was* a feature, I hopped this feature was dropped...) is there a mean to disable it ? I've been fooling in the preferences menu and I've not found where it is hidden. -- Regards - Jean-Luc pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Re : [Gimp-user] color and grey-scale.

Now, I don't know how to get the blue color into the image. I tried selecting sections by color and replacing but that looked horible. Is it possible to not just end up with a matte, all blue image, when I am done. It would be great if when converting to one color the different colors were preserved (red converts to blue and yellow gets converted to a lighter blue). I hope this makes sense.
