An Overview of GIMP 2.8 - Beginning Photo Retouching and Restoration Using GIMP - page 11

Many of the functions used routinely have keyboard shortcuts. It's a good idea to familiarize yourself
with them and make a habit of using them on a regular basis.
The Image Navigation Bar
This is a useful new feature for GIMP 2.8. The Image Navigation Bar allows you to easily browse through all of
the images that are open in GIMP, by viewing the thumbnails just above the image workspace (Figure 1-10 ).

Simply click the thumbnail of the image you want to display in the workspace. The thumbnail of the
