New GIS Manager is powerful. To add raster, vector and commands is easy. Now is need a DUPLICATE
icon on GIS Manager: if you select one object (layer or command or paint label) on the list you can
select the DUPLICATE icon and the same object is duplicate for modifying. This function is very
useful for small changes, for managing vector layers, for commands.

done (for all layers but not groups). as i moved to australia two weeks ago, i haven't been able to follow all the discussions about grass6 beta lately. is it already OK to add new functionalities again or should only bugfixes be uploaded to CVS?

I have a small bug fix to the r.terraflow menu and an improvement to the
raster display panel. Now it will filter cat/values for display and give a
choice for background color. I'll submit the bug fix on Monday, but hold off
on the raster panel update until 6.0.0
The duplicate is a very nice idea that I've wished for too. Also, I want to
report that the form mode for d.what.vect WORKS on my Mac now.
THANKS VERY MUCH to those of you who finally tracked down and fixed this
difficult bug!

This will be much appreciated. I have a series of updates to the GIS Manager
too.
I noticed that in Radim's code for dm.tcl there are stubs for cut and paste
for branches of the layer tree in the display manager--complete with icons
and all. Did you perchance use these? If not, it might be a good idea to
split your duplicate into the cut and paste parts. I'm adding a second tool
bar for monitor management. If you do cut and past icons, I might rearrange
the buttons on the 2 bars so as to keep the width down in the GIS Manager.
Let's coordinate on this. Thanks very much for the nice addition.
Michael

It would be good to match the icons in v.digit with d.m (refresh, pan,
etc) too. Oh, and while you're at it a GUI for r.digit?

no, i didn't use that code. i checked d.m.tcl but i couldn't find it. can you give me the line numbers?
If you do cut and past icons,
i'll see how it might work, once i found that code.
I took a look at the icons. The only one that is potentially in common
between the GIS manager and v.digit is for pan. However, the v.digit pan
icon looks too close to the zoom back icon in the GIS Manager. Maybe the GIS
Manager pan icon should be used in v.digit???
I like the idea of a nice interface for r.digit. It needs a c-programmer
though.

"redraw" was the one that caught my eye. Maybe stuff the d.m redraw
button into the monitor's display in the v.digit button?
..trying to make things more intuitive..
i had a look at the two-toolbar version of the GIS manager. i don't think that we need cut/paste/copy buttons. the current setup with copy (and paste in one step) and cut can do all a user needs: you can get rid of a layer and you can duplicate it. or am i missing something?
cheers
