Public bug reported: Can't change grid spacing in GIMP without program restart. Ubuntu 14.04 x86-64, gimp 2.8.10-0ubuntu1 (from official repo).
Steps to reproduce: Go to "Edit" -> "Preferences" menu -> choose "Default Grid" -> change "Spacing" -> click "OK". If grid is not enabled, go to "View" -> "Show Grid" menu and check it to show grid. The grid spacing / cell size is equal to old settings, not to new after changes. Only if I close gimp and open again it apply new grid spacing and show grid with new cell size. Expected: When I change grid spacing in preferences and click "OK", Gimp should immediate apply changes and change grid to new cell size without program restart. Grid Offset settings works same: can't apply without program restart. ** Affects: gimp (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: gimp trusty ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gimp in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1422136 Title: Can't change grid spacing in GIMP Status in gimp package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Can't change grid spacing in GIMP without program restart.
