[Solved] Rectangle selection problem

Since yesterday, when I make a selection with the rectangular selection tool the selection comes with a 2:1 width to height constraint. If I hold down the shift key it changes to 1:2. It never used to do this - I was able to make a selection of any shape I wanted. The elliptical alternative is uncon...

[Solved] Re: GC 10.5.2 Beta Build 2902

1. I downloaded and opened this and it complained that MacOS had deleted or mislaid the Preferences. It offered to rebuild them, and on acceptance appears to have done so correctly.

Re: New (and unwanted) dialog

Thanks - sorted!

I have some sympathy with JamesInSanDego's point. I suspect that I use about 1% of Graphic Converter's capabilities!

[Solved] New (and unwanted) dialog

Since a few weeks back, I have been seeing a new dialog in the following situation: 1. Scan an item in a magazine using TWAIN. 2. Select the item using <command><option>E and copy. 3. Expand the window using canvas size to just over twice the height. 4. Paste bottom centered. I get a dialog (see att...

[Closed] Beta downloads

This may not be the right place to post this but here goes anyway. When I open a downloaded beta DMG, it has no toolbar and therefore no sidebar. This makes it just that little bit more difficult to drag the app to where I want it. My other Finder windows open with the sidebar by default. Is this a ...

Re: Scanning Shortcut

I use GC10 Preferences/General/Image Capture,TWAIN and select Enable: Command-T to open TWAIN driver.

No need for special action, it's built in.
