Currently using 1.1bs GR

Ive noticed the following:
1. When trying to use the save option under the file menu - nothing happens -- meaning the dialog box appears, you type in the file name, but nothing saves.
2. The Preference Option under the Options Menu - Nothing happens

Suggestions
1. Could you add the ability to rotate the images from within GR? I think java has a built in library for this.
2. Would it be possible to download an album from a personal gallery homepage, add images to the gallery and then reupload the gallery. I have found that making modifications from within GR, such as the reordering or sorting of pictures, editing the caption etc, to be much faster in GR than working through the web interface. The resorting of images is much faster!!!

Thank you

This is probably because the library that does that is not installed. You need to add it in the .lax file. See here.

Yep, bad build. Jesse just told me on IRC. I'll upload a new one shortly.

I can't do it within Java, because it plays havoc with the memory allocation, but I'm planning to use an external executable to do, similar to ImageMagick.

It's planned too :-)

Thanks again guys for the quick reply. Addressing point#1 however - the link you provided was to a previous post of mine. I did what was instructed in the post, however the save option still does not work. Possible I have a corrupted library, however Im just here to report that adding lib\jsx1.0.7.4.jar to the lax.class.path did not work for me.

Thanks
