Rectangle select tool : Can't enter locking parameter text, If I check the 'Fixed:' checkbox.
Last modified: 2012-11-23 16:17:40 UTC
1. Open or create any image. 2. Select the "Rectangle select tool". 3. In the tool options section, Check the "Fixed:" checkbox. 4. Now parameter textbox is disabled, Can't enter any text until I exit and relaunch the GIMP. I can get this problem in any 2.8.x builds including unofficial/official, x86/x64. This bug doesn't appear in previous version. I'm using Windows 7 Pro x64.
I can't reproduce this on Windows 7 - which of the input boxes exactly are disabled?

It seems that I found a cause. This problem occur when the OS's regional format is set to Korean(Korea). When I set the regional format to English(US) then the problem do not occur.

I can confirm this bug on Win7 32 bit after setting the system regionale settings to 'Korean'. Changing regionale settings in GIMPs Preferences dialog has no effect. With Korean regionale the Fixed textbox doesn't have the entry 'Current' like in other regionale settings. Entering numbers on the numeric pad blindly zooms the image in and out.
Found the workaround. Set [LC_ALL=C] environment variable in windows system setting, then no more bug appears. This workaround may cause side effect to other applications that use setlocale() function I think, but can be avoided by using simple launcher script(.cmd) like: --------------------------------------------------------- @ECHO OFF @ECHO Launching GIMP.. SET LC_ALL=C CALL "C:\Program Files\Gimp-2.8.2\bin\gimp-2.8.exe" --------------------------------------------------------- I think you can fix this bug easily.
Ah, that sounds familiar, and has just been fixed in GTK+. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 668239 ***
