Kerning for text tool

Will 'kerning' ever be implemented for the text tool?

Would it be ok to do a 'feature request' for this in bugzilla if it's not currently being considered?

Thanks, Eric Pierce

Hi Eric,

There is a feature request for this open in Bugzilla. As far as I know, this is not (yet) supported in pango (which we use to layout text), and until it is, implementing it in the GIMP would be difficult. This is in the works for Pango, and might well appear in the GIMP for version 2.2.

It is currently being considered. Please see bug #120268. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=120268

Cheers, Dave.
