Description Joe Pea 2008-09-15 07:33:20 UTC
It would be amazing if you guys could develop a blending manager that could manage all the effects you have on one layer, and allow you to turn them on or off (similar to photoshop) instead of permanently applying a blend.  This would allow us to experiment with many blending options at a time instead of guessing the order of blends we have to do to achieve the desired effect.  In other words, it is inconvenient to make 5 blends on a layer, then decide that the first blend you don't want and have to roll back everything you did just to change the first effect.  Can you guys possibly do this!!!  It would definitely make GIMP a worthy competitor to Photoshop.  The lack of this feature is the only reason why i close gimp and open photoshop.  Otherwise Gimp is the freakin best because its free and easy to manipulate with seperate windows!  With this added feature Gimp would stomp on all the rest!  What do you guys think?

I think that you do want to contribute to the effort of making GIMP use GEGL :)
http://www.gegl.org

This bug is probably a duplicate of an existing one (somewhat related bug to #79025).

Hi and thanks for the bug report! This is however indeed a duplicate.

Does this mean that GEGL doesn't currently run with GIMP?  How do you actually use it?  Was the GEGL logo on gegl.org made with GEGL?  

I'm not actually a programmer so I won't be able to help make GIMP use GEGL, but I can't wait until someone does!  What can I do in the meantime?
