Hello again, I've been using GQview as a persistent file open dialog for Gimp for the past couple days; so I just recently noticed that sometimes when I hit ctrl-1 expecting to open a remote gimp window via external_1, I get the output of external_2 executing on my terminal instead. When this first happened, I thought I just had a brain fade and the external commands' shortcuts were supposed to be numbered from 0. I complacently switched to using ctrl-0 to bring up images in the gimp. This morning I continued my project from the night before in the still running GQview; I hit ctrl-0 but it rotated my image instead! And so, for a while ctrl-1 was back to running the Gimp, the way I had remembered it before (and the way it's documented, iirc). Just now, it switched back to being ctrl-0. Before digging in for some time consuming attempts at reproducing the flipflop, I thought I'd run the issue by you, John, (and the whole list, of course) to see if you or anyone else might know off-hand what might be causing this. I also have a related cosmetic usability enhancement suggestion: Perhaps the pop-up context menu of external editors could list the number or keyboard shortcut next to each editor. I have all 10 defined, and it's a minor inconvenience to have to count out the entries to derive the shortcut number. (Though I suppose it does probably help me remember which number is which, since it takes a bit of extra thought to determine. :) Thanks, Steve PS - I just noticed that 1.5.8 was released; I haven't tried it yet, but by the changelog it doesn't seem it would act differently with respect to this issue. -- Steven Mueller [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
