Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    (step 2) save it and close GIMP under 10 clicks.

    File -> Overwrite (2 clicks)

    File -> Quit (2 clicks)

    Yes I want to quit, even though I haven't saved it as an .xpf file (1 click)

    Total: 5 clicks

    [–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    It's more like File-> export->select PNG->save->select your file(that you just opened and modified)->save->yes I want to overwrite it THEN close the image in Gimp->no I don't want to save image.xpf.

    Instead of a CTRL+S

    I mean sometimes you'd probably missclick too...

    File > overwrite

    Bind it to Ctrl+s if you want.

    It only saves as an xcf project if you choose save instead of overwrite.

    the fuck do you mean "it's more like" i just reproduced those 5 steps using my copy of gimp

    [–] Valmond@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago (2 children)

    Not saving a project file, but the image file you just opened. Learn to read, sheesh.

    [–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 6 months ago

    Yes, that is what those steps do

    [–] AVincentInSpace@pawb.social 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

    like you are aware that overwriting the file you opened, as opposed to saving a project file, is what I just told you how to do in 5 clicks?

    [–] Valmond@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

    That's already insane IMO. But yes okay not the hyperbole of 10 clicks, "only 5", I'll give you that 😊.

    Cheers
