Description of problem: If one does something like an unsharp mask, there's no indication that the procedure is happening, and no indication when it's finished. Since the interface is non-modal, it's easy to go on and do other things before the action completes, which may not be the intention. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gimp-2.6.8-2.fc13.x86_64 But I'm pretty sure it started with gimp-2.6.8-1. How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Do something time-consuming in gimp. Unsharp mask, say. 2. Watch the status bar at the bottom of the window for status. Actual results: No feedback. Expected results: A progress bar, followed by a completion message. Additional info:
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle. Changing version to '13'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
This problem and other status bar issues were apparently caused by a slightly incompatible change in gtk+ 2.19. GIMP upstream is working on a fix: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=612956
