We can discuss for some time about what should be present in the basics. Since GIMP is the GNU Image Processing Program, image processing is probably more basic than image drawing. Anyway, probably you did not search for a long time, since on page 87, Figure 3.125 is named "Drawing a straight line". A subsection of the same title begins on page 85. -- Olivier Lecarme _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
