    I don’t, but some people like multi window GIMP, and apparetnly several applications in the automotive (kiCAD for example) and scientific field

      People who like multi window gimp must be a very special kind of nerd. I used it before single window mode was added, but when it was I never looked back. Positioning each subwindow in a way that didn’t suck was such an absolute pain

        It’s not a pain if you use a tiling WM, and doesn’t KDE remember and restore window positions yet?

        alias hc=herbstclient
        # GIMP
        # ensure there is a gimp tag
        hc add gimp
        hc load gimp '
        (split horizontal:0.850000:0
        (split horizontal:0.200000:1
        (clients vertical:0)
        (clients grid:0))
        (clients vertical:0))
        '               # load predefined layout
        # center all other gimp windows on gimp tag
        hc rule class=Gimp tag=gimp index=01 pseudotile=on
        hc rule class=Gimp windowrole~'gimp-(image-window|toolbox|dock)' \
        pseudotile=off
        hc rule class=Gimp windowrole=gimp-toolbox focus=off index=00
        hc rule class=Gimp windowrole=gimp-dock focus=off index=1

          it’s not a pain

          Here’s the dozen lines of config I had to write and tweak and debug to make it tolerable

          Uh huh. You do you.
