If it was me I think I would rectangle select the area I wanted to make into a 'reflection', copy it, and paste it into the image as a new layer. Then I would do Layer > Transform > Flip vertically. There's a 'reflection', that can be moved up or down and scaled on its vertical axis (if desired) to fit where you want it in the image. If transparency is wanted, add a layer mask to the reflection layer and fill it with a white-to-black vertical gradient; note that you can go outside the layer with the gradient to get partial fading as needed. Not "one click" fast but not at all time consuming, and you get the exact reflection you want, with GIMP-quality scaling and etc. in the finished product. Plus you can edit your saved XCF file if you need to adjust the reflection effect later on. :o) _______________________________________________ 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
