gimp2 @ 2.8.8 +quartz: keyboard malfunctioning

Reported by: david.e.pi.3.14@… Owned by: dbevans (David B. Evans)
Priority: Normal Milestone:
Component: ports Version: 2.2.1
Keywords: Cc:
Port: gimp2

Description

When trying to export an image it is impossible to type in the filename in the file form, because the keyboard is captured by the toolbox and each keystroke is interpreted as a shortcut activating a tool in the toolbox

Will take a look. Can you provide any further details to help track things down? What version of Mac OS X/Xcode are you using? Did this problem also occur with the previous version (2.8.6)? Anything else that might help?

Thanks

Sorry I should have written about those: the Mac OS X version is 10.9 and Xcode is 5.0.1.

I haven't tried any of the previous versions of Gimp from MacPorts as I just got a Mac (I was a long time Linux user). I can only tell you that the binary app bundle directly from the gimp website (version 2.8.6) works fine, but this difference might also be due to differences? in the GTK libraries. Inkscape (also using +quartz) also works fine.

Known bug on Mavericks with GIMP's old menu-integration code, fixed today for master and gimp-2.8:
Bug 710943 - Many keys invoke shortcuts, even in text entry fields like e.g. the file name of Save Image

The fix adds a new dependency: gtk-osx-application

Back ported upstream patches to enable Cocoa based OS X integration for +quartz builds per suggestion in comment:4. Thanks!

Additional patch required to properly link with gtk-osx-application. Configure now enables Mac native menus if the platform is Mac OS X and gtk2 is built with the quartz gdk backend. This fixes the reported problem (for me at least) on both Mavericks and Mountain Lion. X11 builds of gimp2 are not effected.

Fix committed in r113381.

Yes the last updated fixes the problem for me too. Thank you very much!
