blend tool: the description and the order of repeat mode: Truncate (GIMP_REPEAT_TRUNCATE)
Last modified: 2018-05-24 14:30:22 UTC
Created attachment 283637 [details] painting with blend tool with each repeat mode Step for reproduction: 1. Open GIMP and select blend tool. 2. pull down repaet-mode combobox at tool option dialog. Actual result: the description of each modes and the order in the list are: 1st. row: 'None (extend)' 2nd. row: 'Sawtooth Wave' 3rd. row: 'Triangular Wave' *4th. row: *'Truncate' Expected result: 1st. row: 'None (extend)' *2nd. row: *'None (truncate)' 3rd. row: 'Sawtooth Wave' 4th. row: 'Triangular Wave' Other information: See attached image. This is result by using blend tool with each repeat mode. It shows that a gradient is *not repeated* when 'Truncate' mode is used. this means that 'Truncate' mode is a variety of 'None' mode. So, from the view of usability, I think that the mode should be named 'None (truncate)' instead of 'Truncate' and that the mode should be placed near 'None (extend)' mode in the list.
Created attachment 283638 [details] [review] change the name of 'Truncate' and the order
I attach a patch for it. It is much appreciated if the patch would be adopted.
We know. This enum is part of the public API and cannot change its order, we can only append to it. This can only be done when we break API for GIMP 3.0.
