I've been playing around with your method of making a selection, and I'm afraid I have a newbie question. How do you blur the QuickMask? I use the QuickMask all the time for making a selection with a fuzzy brush. Do you simply activate the QuickMask and then Filters > Blur > Gaussian Blur? But doesn't this Blur the entire image - selected and not selected? Thanks so much. -- __________________________ DJ _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
