GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 118191
[TRACKING] Improvements to load/save
Last modified: 2018-05-24 10:52:18 UTC
There are a number of interesting and useful suggestions for how loading and saving of files can be improved. This tracking bug is intended to list all of them in one place so that when a new load/save api is designed it can take these things into account. Assigned to general simply because XCF load/save is currently implented as core functionality, and because the core would have to be changed to support a better API anyway.
maybe we need Import Export components in bugzilla? (preferably a seperate component for each)
Changing title to use convention for tracking bugs. Dave.
Added 118202 because of the comment about ways to rotate jpeg without a full decompression. Part of improved loading is only loading as much as you need.
A couple of versions ago the text box on the load save was removed for windows. I frequenly find folder by typing the name and having the directory name completion show the options. This can be a very fast way to navigate. The other way that I frequently use it is if I have a folder open I can copy the folder location and paste it in as the starting directory. Now the only way to navigate is clicking on the folders. Could even be a shrinking section only for those who use it. If this is not the best place to post this, please let me know so that I can post it elsewhere. Thanks
A tracking bug is the worst place you could have added your comment to. Anyway, you can enter your directory in the dialog you get when pressing Ctrl-L or '/'.
