No description
This is the result of a UX session with Aryeom. Just showing a message forbidding editing of non-rasterized text/link/vector layers is problematic, because it doesn't help people understand how to unblock their situation (if they really want to just edit directly the layer). Additionally we are now blinking the layer. A possible alternative could have been to pop a dialog up, with the same message but also with a quick-action button to allow rasterize in a click (similar to how we are popping a dialog up to revert the rasterization when clicking on a text layer with the text tool or a vector layer with the path tool). The problem is that even though the need to edit directly a non-raster layer arises from time to time, most of the time, when you use such layers, you don't intend to edit these (unlike editing text/path with matching tools, you more often wanted to edit the relevant data). Therefore it is more often than not just a mistake when you try to paint directly on such a layer. I.e. that very often, you were intending to paint on another layer, or add a new layer above your non-raster layer. Therefore a dialog popping up every time you made such a mistake would be annoying and workflow-breaking. A simple error message and some blinking leave for a fluid process. |

GNU Image Manipulation Program
3.1 Development Branch
------------------------------
This is an unstable development release in the GIMP 3.1 series.
If you think you found a bug in this version, please make sure that it
hasn't been reported earlier and that it is not just new stuff that is
still being worked on and obviously not quite finished yet. If neither
of these, please report it!
If you want to hack on GIMP, please read the file devel-docs/README.md.
For detailed installation instructions, see the file INSTALL.
1. Web Resources
================
GIMP's home page is at:
https://www.gimp.org/
Please be sure to visit this site for information, documentation,
tutorials, news, etc. All things GIMP-ish are available from there.
The latest version of GIMP can be found at:
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
We also have a website dedicated to documentation at:
https://docs.gimp.org/
2. Contributing
===============
GIMP source code can be found at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/
Resources for contributors:
https://developer.gimp.org/
In particular, you may want to look in the "Core Development" section. Some
articles of particular interest for newcomers could be:
* Setting up your developer environment: https://developer.gimp.org/core/setup/
* GIMP Coding Style: https://developer.gimp.org/core/coding_style/
* Submit your first patch: https://developer.gimp.org/core/submit-patch/
3. Discussion Channels
======================
We have several discussion channels dedicated to GIMP user and
development discussion. There is more info at:
https://www.gimp.org/discuss.html
For the real junkies, there are IRC channels (e.g. #gimp or #gimp-user)
devoted to GIMP on GIMPNet (a private free software oriented network).
Many of the developers hang out there. Some of the GIMPNet servers are:
irc.gimp.org:6667
irc.us.gimp.org:6667
irc.eu.gimp.org:6667
More discussion channels, such as forums, will be listed on the above
"discuss" page when they are moderated by a team member.
Links to archives of former discussion methods (e.g. mailing lists) are
also included in that page.
4. Customizing
==============
The look of GIMP's interface can be customized like any other GTK+ app
by editing files in `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/gtk-3.0/` (settings.ini and
gtk.css in particular) or by using "themes" (ready-made customizations).
Additionally, GIMP reads `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/3.0/gimp.css` so you
can have settings that only apply to GIMP.
You can also manually change the keybindings to any of your choice by
editing: `${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/GIMP/3.0/shortcutsrc`.
Have fun,
