Some also require the presence or absence of GNU Image Manipulation Program Generated by docbook2odf Page 23 of empty Undo History. The implementation of Undo by GIMP is rather sophisticated.

because it can only handle RGB, grayscale and indexed images. Working with pre-press and Gimp will require some planning, and it’s way too much to write about here. We have devoted a whole chapter to pre-press Us er ’ s M a n u a l Co l o r M odel s Indexed image files contain less data and therefore require less memory to store. If you are designing graphics for the web, you should keep in mind that many generally very simple — just scan in 72 ppi. This resolution will suffice for color photos that don’t require a high level of detail. If you scan items where detail is important, such as drawings, you have

Many operations require very little Undo memory (e.g., changing visibility of a layer), so you can perform long sequences GIMP asks you to confirm that you really want to revert the image. “Pieces” of actions Some tools require you to perform a complex series of manipulations before they take effect, but only allow you to undo
