remembering the image size as set in Preferences needs application restart

If I set a new image size in preferences, say by using one of the dropdown preset dimensions, the new size will be taken in consideration by the File -> New... menu only if I restart the application.

Is this a known issue ? Or am I missing something ?

Other strange thing is that if I delete completely the whole user directory (the one begining with a dot), as if GIMP were fresh installed, the new image dimension is 610x377 in GIMP 2.7.x instead of 640x400 in GIMP 2.6.x.

This is how it is defined, if making your own, adjust app/core/gimptemplate.h to suit (I think)

#ifdef GIMP_UNSTABLE #define GIMP_DEFAULT_IMAGE_WIDTH 610 #define GIMP_DEFAULT_IMAGE_HEIGHT 377 #else
#define GIMP_DEFAULT_IMAGE_WIDTH 640 #define GIMP_DEFAULT_IMAGE_HEIGHT 400

Still much easier to redefine that in User preferences/default image :)
