GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 168936
librsvg plugin doesn't query for size when ran through "open as layer"

Maybe it even shouldn't open the standard dialog it opens when launched from file>open, but I found it more useful for it to respect the pixel size of the image than of the SVG. Other information: Wasn't sure if the librsvg plugin is part of GIMP or librsvg, feel free to reassign.
file_open_layer() calls file_open_image() with GIMP_RUN_NONINTERACTIVE. I think this is intentional but I am not quite sure what's the idea behind this. Changing the behaviour of the plug-in, as you requested, would require that the core knows how to call the svg plug-in. That's not currently possible unless we want to start adding special code for all kind of file plug-ins.
Fixed in both branches: 2005-03-08 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org> * app/file/file-open.c (file_open_layer): open images interactively. Fixes bug #168936.
