If you imported the image or layer from a JPeG (.jpg) file, it will not have an alpha property for that layer. Use menu: Layer / Transparency / Add alpha channel Delete will then (by default) make the deleted section transparent. When you save back to a JPeG, GIMP will paint the background (of the saved image only) white. Save into an XCF file to retain all of the layers, transparency, etc. Cheers; Leon _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
