started a discussion of the captions used in the "Canvas dialogue".

Always I have to think - what does "Position applies to": Position of the existing image (new canvas on the other side) or position of the modified canvas"?

Now I know - it is the "Image Position": Please add the word "image" to the describing string.
Maybe Pierre (and Helmut) can take a look at this?

Right, "Image position" would make the dialog a bit clearer. The space for the label is very limited, though.
