- Raster effects are not the only ones to suffer from it, but here
goes: effect dialogs inherit caption from menu item name. In several cases the caption is too long and is shrinked. This is not quite visually appealing. Two solutions comes to mind: 1) automatically resize dialog to match caption's length and 2) provide a separate string to dialog's caption which translators could try to make smaller.
2 is better of course
Maybe I'm a little confused; this isn't a translation issue, right? We need the shorter string in English too? So we're suggesting adding another entry to the INX file for Window title?

2200x1500 picture and when I click "Cancel" nothing really happens.
Ted, can you comment on that? (and btw, have we agreed to eliminate the "pin" checkbox? Are you working on that?)
I'm curious about it. I'm restructuring the code a little bit to make it cleaner -- which may in turn fix this. I'll put it on my list of things to check to ensure the new code works.
We haven't agreed do remove the pin dialog checkbox. I wanted to get some of the internal stuff fixed, then go back to that. I'm still not convinced that everything should be floating palettes, especially the effects. But, I don't think that the export dialog should be either for most people. Yes, for people who export things regularly, or several PNGs of different areas -- but for me, it's just an extra click on a simple operation.
