Warning dialogs in GIMP 2.10.18: Persistence after gimprc reset
0 reputation · 25 Nov 2021, 04:43 UTC
The goal is to use GIMP 2.10.18’s granular warning‑dialog preferences to suppress low‑priority pop‑ups while keeping critical alerts such as color‑profile mismatches active.
It is unclear whether these settings survive a gimprc file reset or corruption, or how they behave in portable installations where the configuration may be re‑initialized. Additionally, the hard‑coded warning that prevents closing images with unsaved work might override disabled preferences, but the exact interaction is undocumented.
Does disabling a warning via Edit → Preferences → Interface persist after the gimprc file is reset to defaults?
Do portable GIMP builds retain the customized warning states across launches?
Is the hard‑coded unsaved‑work warning the only alert that cannot be suppressed through the preference system?
