this is maddening. i can't get any help elsewhere so hopefully someone here can get me out of this hell.
did a fresh install and the feature just doesn't work. see the video linked above.
i've tried Google but either my Google-fu is failing me or there's some idiotic thing i'm overlooking that no one else on the planet has before because zero people seem to have this problem in the history of the program.
all i'm trying to do is get three dialogs on the right (layers on top, colors in the middle, tool options on the bottom) and a single column of the tools on the left. i can get the tools just fine, but dialogs as a whole seem to be unable to dock at all regardless of the version of the program i'm using (same thing happens in 2.8.XX). no matter where i try to drop any dialog, at any time, it fails and stays in it's own separate window and cannot be docked again. anywhere. and, yes, i'm clicking the
tab and not the window. again, see video.
i can add dialogs to existing docks via the button to the right of the dialog tabs (that little triangle one) but when i remove or try to reposition any dialog that's docked, it detaches and stays that way. it won't dock again unless i add it via the button i mentioned before. no matter what. i'm at a complete loss. i've used GIMP for over 10 years and do commissions on the reg. but i did a clean install of Windows 10 this past spring and have had this problem ever since. this is driving me up the wall. i'm going out of my mind. any help is appreciated.
