PS I’ve adjusted the Preferences to point to the location of Gimp.

As expected, right-clicking on an image and selecting “Image->Edit Image” opens Gimp, but it doesn’t open the image file for editing. Was I wrong to expect the image file which is embedded within a Scribus document to be opened for me?
