is this option hidden somewhere, or it is not implemented ? (related to dock windows)

This discussion is connected to the gimp-developer-list.gnome.org mailing list which is provided by the GIMP developers and not related to gimpusers.com.

This is a read-only list on gimpusers.com so this discussion thread is read-only, too.

is this option hidden somewhere, or it is not implemented ? (related to dock windows)

During the translation process I came across this tooltip: ===
When enabled, dock windows (the toolbox and palettes) are set to be transient to the active image window. Most window managers will keep the dock windows above the image window then, but it may also have other effects.
===
I wanted to check my translation on the real thing, but I also want to see this to see this option in action (sounds good to me). But I don't know where that option is.

Is this implemented ? (Win32 here)

yes, it is not hidden and it is implemented.

the option associated with that is 'transient docks' (in the 'interface section of the preferences IIRC)

yes, it is not hidden and it is implemented.

and only in unstable/debug builds i.e. not in the 2.6 series.

Aha, so that's the mystery.
Strange, though, because I am working on the stable (2.6.x) gettext file from here http://l10n.gnome.org/POT/gimp.gimp-2-6/gimp.gimp-2-6.pot (i.e. not the HEAD version)

That's probably because the disabling is done by an #ifdef GIMP_UNSTABLE, so intltools cannot detect that this string will not actually be used in the compiled binary. And of course, the option has been around since before 2.6; you should be able to find it in 2.5.x
