Quote: I had that setup until earlier today when I found it convenient to disable single-window mode. Everything was messed up when I turned it back on.
That's the crucial bit
The classic Gimp three pane display is Tools/tool options - Gimp Image window - Brush/Layer docksShuffle those around, return to single-window mode and the positions stick. Unfortunately going back to mult-window mode does not fix the problem.
Best option is start again.
Edit -> Preferences -> Window Management then click on Reset Saved Window Positions to Default Values and OK
Restart Gimp and move your tabs around, "practice makes perfect" as they say.
To prevent it happening again.
Edit -> Preferences -> Window Management
Untick Save window positions on exit
Click on Save Window Positions Now and OK
Then when you go out of single window mode you know that restarting Gimp returns to your setup.

Strange that does not work. The window positions are held in your Gimp User profile in the file sessionrc. Delete that file and the window/dock positions return to default.
Quote:...I tried using the white border option, but I do not get a white border, just white line...There was another user reported that problem. Seemed to be an issue with a HD (4k) display. I do not know.
