bugzilla or here?

Hello.

Some description on this help are not reproduceable actually
by the GIMP application. I want to tell them for this team,
because they seem to be obsolete features.

Which should I send this report, to this mailing list or to the Bugzilla?
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/buglist.cgi?product=GIMP-manual

Hi,

As there may be some discussion about your changes, this list is the
best, IMO.

Hi,
here is a list for amendment which I noticed.

----------
Layer masks can be added to a layer without any alpha channel.
When the layer mask is applied, the layer gets its own alpha channnel.
It can be seen at the Layers dialog: the font face of the layer name becomes
bold to normal.

dialogs/layer-mask.xml
To create a layer mask start with a right click on the layer to call
the context menu and select <guilabel>Add layer mask</guilabel>
- in the menu. If the menu item is grayed first select
- <guilabel>Add Alpha channel</guilabel> in the same menu. A dialog
+ in the menu. A dialog
appears where you can initialize the content of the mask:

menus/layer/mask-add.xml
The <guimenuitem>Add Layer Mask</guimenuitem> command adds a layer mask
to the active layer. It displays a dialog in which you can set the
initial properties of the mask. If the layer already has a layer mask,
- or if it cannot have one because it does not have an alpha channel, the
- menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.
+ the menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.
</para>
<para>

menus/layer/mask-add.xml
The <guimenuitem>Apply Layer Mask</guimenuitem> command merges the
layer mask with the current layer. The transparency information in the
layer mask is transferred to the alpha channel and the layer mask is
- removed. If the active layer does not have a layer mask, the menu entry
+ removed. Then the layer get its own alpha channel in case it does not
+ exist. If the active layer does not have a layer mask, the menu entry
is insensitive and grayed out. See the
<link linkend="gimp-layer-mask">Layer Masks</link>

---------
The Toolbox menubar issue.

menus/file/new.xml
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
- You can access the command from either the Toolbox menubar or the
- Image menubar through:
+ You can access the command from the menubar through:

----------
On Module Manager, it seems that some buttons and a column of the main
list are removed.

xml/menus/edit/module-manager.xml

-----------
Paths Tool Option dialog has one suit of radio buttons, one checkbox,
and two buttons: <guibutton>Stroke Path</guibutton> and
<guibutton>Selection from Path</guibutton>, but no
<guibutton>Selection to Path</guibutton.

dialogs/path-dialog.xml
</listitem>
- <listitem>
- <para>
- From the <guilabel>Selection to Path</guilabel> button in
- the Tool Options for the Path tool.

-----------
Pointer dialog's context menu does not have preview-icons submenu.

dialogs/pointer-dialog.xml
<title><quote>Pointer</quote> dialog options</title>
- <para>
- As in every dialog that contains preview icons, you can control the
- preview images in the tab menu. To get more informations about that
- topic read <xref linkend="gimp-concepts-docks"/>.
- </para>

-----------
Desaturate command has been promoted to a tool, so now it can be activated
anytime, even if the active image's mode is not RGB. Of cource, it can do
nothing on grayscale or indexed images.

toolbox/tool-desaturate.xml
<note>
<para lang="en">
This command only works on layers of
- <link linkend="glossary-rgb">RGB</link> images. If the image is in
- Grayscale or Indexed mode, the menu entry is insensitive and grayed out.
+ <link linkend="glossary-rgb">RGB</link> images.
</para>
</note>

-----------
Preset function has replaced <guibutton>Open</guibutton> button and
<guibutton>Save</guibutton> button.

Would it be possible:

* put the patch on a webserver somewhere on the net or,
* create a new bug against the GIMP-manual on bugzilla.gnome.org and
attach your patch on it, or
* send your patch to one of our authors.

Extracting the diff out of the mail is quite unreliable.

Cheers,

Hello, Roman.
I read your advice, then I have understood
the rule of this forum clearly.
Thank you. I will use Bugzilla as well as possible.
