New layer dialog pop-up

Hi!

Can I configure Gimp2.2 to disable the new layer pop-up dialog? I think it's more annoying as usable.

What can I set in this popup?: - the layer's name (just a double-click on the layer's name ) - the layer color (90% of case, I think its transparent. If somebody want other color, its just a drag&drop from the colors icon)

In the version 2.2 I see a good progress the eliminate all the pop-ups and simplify it (if can't eliminate it). The measure tool its a good example of it.

If can't be changed by user, can we return the 2.0's way? (just a click, and there is a new layer).

Best regards, Khiraly

Well, I don't think transparent is the common case. That was the main reason for changing this. The other one is consistency but see my comment below.

Shift-click to suppress the dialog. This is consistent with a lot of other places where you can Shift-click to skip the dialog and reuse the last-used values.
