Spacebar to switch temporarily to move is awfully useful. I didn't know about it until this discussion, but I've often wanted something like that -- I'm forever switching between move and something else, for instance when I'm creating lots of different text layers and need to position each one. If you change spacebar to pan, I hope you'll consider investing some other key with this "temporary move tool" meaning. Now that I've known about it for a couple days I'm already sorry to have to give it up! Do a lot of gimp users not have a middle mouse button? Maybe tablet users who don't want to put down the stylus and switch to a mouse? (That would be understandable.) Or is this just because ... that other program does it that way, and its users are used to it? ...Akkana _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
