Re: [Usability] bad dialog, need advice

["Dylan McCall" <dylanmccall gmail com>]

Is it really necessary to have an Apply /and/ a Crop button? All that tool does is crop things, so it can be easily assumed that, when pressing Apply, one wants that selection to be cropped.
That's what I was expecting, anyway...

Hmm, thanks, that's food for thought...

For the time being I'm going to try to rework the existing dialog so
that it is at least usable, as a stop-gap measure. That's just glade
tweaking.

Then I'll see if I'm clever enough to push the functionality into the
main window...
