Description biroa 2004-05-25 12:39:02 UTC 
Some small problems with the "Tip of the day" strings:

"Click on the \"New Layer\" "
"or \"Anchor Layer buttons\" in the Layers dialog"

Maybe "buttons" ("button") should be outside the quote.

------------------------

"To create a perfect circle, hold <tt>Shift</tt> while doing an ellipse "
"select."

1. What's a "perfect" circle? Maybe this word could be dropped.
2. This does not create a circle, just a circle-shaped selection.

------------------------

"You can press or release the <tt>Shift</tt> and <tt>Ctrl</tt> keys while you "
"are making a selection in order to constrain it to a perfect square or "
"circle, or to have it centered on its starting point."

Again: what's a perfect square/circle?

We would appreciate a patch for the file tips/gimp-tips.xml.in.

Actually the tips could need a more thorough overhaul but that's handled in bug
#141443 already.
Comment 2 biroa 2004-05-25 14:43:58 UTC 
Is http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/gimp/tips/gimp-tips.xml.in
the current version?
Comment 3 Sven Neumann 2004-05-25 15:35:04 UTC 
Most probably, but I've never used the web interface.
Comment 4 biroa 2004-05-25 19:05:12 UTC 
Created attachment 28012 [details]

Made a few changes based on this report and bug #141443. Also some more
modifications.
