help: TIFF with multiple images and File Open

Some applications such as Nik 6 Color Efex can generate TIFF files with multiple images. In the case of Nik, it is the input and output images.
Using File Open, is there a way to select which image in a multi-image file ?

Re: grid lines : issue on one installation

Thank you Jonathan !

I overlooked the grid selector in the crop transformation dialog box.
I had established a default grid for the crop tool since a long time ago and had forgotten about it when I used it on a different computer.

crop transformation : transitioning to arbitrary

When transitioning from any aspect ratio to arbitrary, it may be preferable not to reset the cropping rectangle.

Reason :
User might want to adjust nearly to a given standard ratio, but not quite.
By not resetting the cropping rectangle, a fine adjustment can be made.

Re: Update Available - Version 8.0.408

It would be nice if a user could navigate using dependencies from the image browser, without entering the edit menu and then clicking and selecting check boxes. Compare to navigating in the structured favorites of Chrome or Edge web browsers : simply hovering over a folder opens it and allows naviga...

crop tool : right-click menu for cropping 16x9 not always working

Use right-click menu on input image
- reset cropping rectangle to entire image

Use right-click menu on input image
- proportions 16:9

Outcome : proportions stay the same ( 4:3 )

Re: Composite images : User interface suggestion

... But maybe this could work the way you want: if Shift-click on a side thumbnail moves focus to the source image, perhaps Shift-click on an image could move focus back to the side thumbnail if any and do nothing or just work as a regular left-click otherwise? The interface must take into account ...
