Startup "layout"

When Gimp starts, it displays the main menu panel and the "Layers, Channels, ..." panel. Is there anyway that I can get it to automatically display the File->Layer->Colors menu also? I can "pin" it to the desktop for a session, but it'd be a lot less tedious if I didn't have to do that every time I started Gimp.

Be seeing you, norm

Is this really not possible?

Normally, it's enough to open the dock, and quit the GIMP. The docks you have open, as well as their positions on the screen, are saved at the end of every session.

Cheers,
Dave.

Odd. That has not been my experience. I definitely have "Save window positions on exit" checked. Even clicking "Save Window Positions Now" doesn't help.

Dave probably was a bit confused here, torn off submenus are not docks. Unfortunately it is not yet possible to save the state of the torn off submenus. I believe that a patch to implement this would be accepted, but I doubt that there are many people who would benefit from that, so it is quite a low priority task...

Bye, Simon
