Loading settings file might break gimp command #6

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Situation:
Path to gimp executable is saved in pts settings files in the GimpExecCommand 
key and loaded when you open a settings file.

Problem:
* Loading any pts with a Gimp path that doesn’t fit your current system 
config breaks Photivo’s gimp export.
* This is a problem especially on Windows where the Gimp exe file contains the 
version number, e.g. "gimp-2.6.exe" for the current stable branch. Similar 
problem when taking a pts to another computer (e.g. because of differing 
application folder paths).

Solution:
Since the Gimp path is not an image specific information, I suggest removing it 
from the pts and ignoring the GimpExecCommand key when loading older settings 
files.

Note:
We should probably check the settings files for similar issues with other keys.
