With a double click on an image name, you raise this image to the foreground of your screen. With a simple click you select this image so that the buttons of the dialog can act on it.
In the Tab menu for the “Images” dialog, you can choose between and . In List mode, they are lined up vertically, with each row showing a thumbnail of the contents of the image, its name, and its pixel dimensions. In Grid mode, the images are laid out in a rectangular array.

This command works only on an image which is loaded without any
window. Though images can be opened by the New Window command,
if the image has been already loaded without window by a
primitive procedure command (such as
gimp-image-new,
file-png-load, etc.), it can not be
unloaded even if its windows are closed to the last. Then use
this command to close it.
