I appreciate the information. It would be nice if the program did this and kept
everything in a stable mode as single window mode as in Photoshop. Still it's a
work around that will help me in creating textures by being able to check my
color matching with the main piece I'm working on.

I've been on other forums for Gimp but so far this site has the most polite
people and provide information that is useful and quite knowledgeable. I think
I'll be quite happy here. Sorry for such a late reply.
