MR Description
This MR improves the usability of Tool Presets by allowing users to restore a preset’s settings with a double-click, making the preset selection more intuitive.
Changes
- Double-Click to Restore Active Preset:
- Previously, clicking on an already active preset had no effect, requiring the user to select a different preset before selecting the desired one to restore its settings.
- The
gimp_container_icon_view_item_activated
function was updated to callgimp_context_tool_preset_changed
when a preset is double-clicked, restoring the preset’s tool options immediately.
Benefit
- This change simplifies the process of restoring Tool Preset options, providing a more efficient workflow by eliminating unnecessary clicks. Now, double-clicking an active preset will quickly restore its saved settings, improving the overall user experience.
