Question about scaling images in Gimp 2.2.1

Ok, so I was trying to scale an image and I right-clicked and clicked "Image", then "Scale Image", and when the scale image dialog appears I changed the units from pixels to percentage and the number changed from pixels to some LARGE number (like over 2000). When I specify a percentage that I want to scale to, say 75%, the image scales down to something tiny (like 8 x 9 pixels).

How does one scale an image by a percentage using Gimp 2.2.x?

Thanks!

Peace...

Tom

there was a discussion about this in the developer mail, i think. if i remember correctly, they are going to put this back into the scale dialog like it was.

okay, i am responding to my own email, i read somewhere that this is not the best way to start your day or something.

the discussion was on this list and the promise was that it would be fixed in the 2.2.2 release which was out yesterday.

i guess i just wish that it be restored to the scale dialog where i am used to having it.

Yep, it's back to the old behavior in 2.2.2. Thanks!
