No, you can't select multiple layers. I'm suggesting that there should be a way to do so (and delete them). On Wed, 2011-01-19 at 09:16 +0100, Ofnuts wrote: On 01/19/2011 07:03 AM, Jeremy Nell wrote: If I select multiple layers (by, say, ctrl-clicking), I should have the option to drag

The ability to select multiple layers opens a rather large can of worms. What happens when you paint with several layers selected? Then Gimp simply doesn't allow you to paint (because it doesn't know which layer you want). Simple. If you have so many layers than it's has become tedious to

Because it simply isn't scriptable. There is no way to multiselect so there is no way to delete multi selected layers. One could use/abuse other layer toggles by having a script delete all: Linked or not linked layers, Visible or non visible layers, Trans locked or not translocked layers. -Rob

So, are you saying that it isn't possible in Gimp? If so, then Photoshop wins this round (sadly) because such a feature because is useful and makes working a bit more streamlined and intuitive. On Wed, 2011-01-19 at 07:27 -0500, Rob Antonishen wrote: Because it simply isn't scriptable.

I know nothing about code. However, I am happy to contribute ideas (like I just have) for future releases, scripts, etc. Unless, of course, only those in the know are permitted to do such things. (That was a joke ... before some uptight developers get even more edgy.) Where can I submit this

[Gimp-user] Wacom zoom strip and buttons

2011-01-19 Thread Jeremy Nell
Been working on Gimp for over a month (after working on Photoshop for a decade) and can say that Gimp is very underrated. Adobe can learn a lot from Gimp. Like picking up the Wacom tablet with ease. One thing, however, that I find very confusing is how to map the Wacom buttons and zoom-strip to

If I select multiple layers (by, say, ctrl-clicking), I should have the option to drag all of them into the bin. Unless I've missed it somewhere, is there is a script enabling the deletion of multiple layers? None that I know of. Depends on the ratio of layers to delete / layers to keep. If

Actually, using the script that merges linked layers, I suppose the user can simply link-and-merge the layers he wants deleted, then deleting the merged layer. On Wed, 2011-01-19 at 14:02 +0100, Tőkés Ábel wrote: The source code of Gimp is available, you are free to do this whenever you
