[Gimp-user] New Guides script glitches

["Rick Strong" <rnstrong primus ca>]

I can’t get the New Guides script to stop running. GIMP 2.10.2, WIN 7 sp1.

I used it to place two guides by percentage (Image>Guides> New Guide by percentage) and it did that, but now 
I get an error message that the New Guides script is still running and I can’t place any more guides.

Oh wait, when I got rid of my main window, there was the dialogue for the New Guides script hiding underneath 
everything. Is there any way for this dialogue (and all others) to be “always on top” and then disappearing 
once the guide has been set? Actually, one might want the dialogue to stay active and on top until all the 
guides have been set.

The other glitch in this otherwise handy tool is that the New Guides script can only set a specific distance 
in pixels, not inches, points or any other measure. Maybe in the next version?

Thanks,
Rick S.
