Outlook vs Evolution vs Kontact: an e-mail client comparison (opensourceversus)Outlook vs Evolution vs Kontact: an e-mail client comparison (opensourceversus)Posted May 20, 2005 18:07 UTC (Fri) by jwb (guest, #15467)In reply to: Outlook vs Evolution vs Kontact: an e-mail client comparison (opensourceversus) by TwoTimeGrime Parent article: Outlook vs Evolution vs Kontact: an e-mail client comparison (opensourceversus)
GIMP lets the user arrange almost anything in any place on the screen. You can dock the dialogs, have more than one dock, and have multiple views of the image, or even multiple toolboxes. What do people complain about? It doesn't look exactly like Photoshop! Either you copy another program's design, or you make your own, but both ways the users will complain.

The real solution is for the interface to be extremely customizable, and for the default configuration to match some other interface. If the GIMP's interface were just like Photoshop, except that you could arrange it differently, few people would complain (except for people who like particular previous GIMP version default interfaces, who would want a way to configure it to the way it was).

I just installed gimp and tried it. It works somewhat like how I want but not really. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. When I run it I have two windows: One window with tools and a second window with the image. I've tried and tried but I can't get the tools to add to the window with the image, or the other way around. I seem stuck with two windows which isn't what I want. I want a single window. The image should be just another dockable component that I can put below, above, or to the side of the other components.
I'm also unable to dock items side by side. I can only dock above or below an existing component. It's a good start though.
