Description david gowers 2005-09-04 11:36:43 UTC
Copy Named or Cut Named write the copied area both to the named buffer and the
global buffer.  This is roughly the opposite of what I expected, though I'm not
sure whether it is actually a bug.
Comment 1 Sven Neumann 2005-09-05 10:25:34 UTC
I tend to agree with you on this one. The code clearly does exactly what you
report it to do, but I think it's the wrong thing to do. Copy Named and Cut
Named shouldn't alter the global buffer.

Fixed in CVS:

2005-09-05  Michael Natterer  <mitch@gimp.org>

	* app/core/gimp-edit.c: don't let named cut/copy affect the global
	buffer. Fixes bug #315225. Also make "Global Buffer" translatable.
