Release Notes for the 2.7 development snapshots. This is an unstable development version of the GNU Image Manipulation Program.
Please realize that this is just a snapshot of the development tree. We are working hard towards GIMP 2.8, the next stable release. GIMP 2.7 is in no way a final product. A lot of new features are incomplete and some things may even be completely broken. If you need to get work done, please use the stable version, GIMP 2.6.
Introduction GIMP 2.7 is the result of three years of hard work and collaborative development. User Interface Single-Window Mode GIMP 2.7 introduces an optional single-window mode.

More Screen Real Estate For Dockable Dialogs The docking bars have been removed and replaced with overlaid highlights. Save And Export A rather big conceptual change is that saving and exporting images now are clearly separated activities. To export into other formats File->Export... needs to be used.
