 I am attempting to use the Tools/TransformTools/Transform/Rotate to

 centerpoint of rotation?

Which version of GIMP are you using? Please check the version number
in the About dialog or run 'gimp --version' and report back here.

 Sorry.  I am on gimp-1.2.5.

Looks like you hit a bug in 1.2 then. I seem to be able to move the
center of rotation in the grid preview but the dialog seems broken.
If you want to see this fixed, please open a bug-report at
bugzilla.gnome.org. I doubt however that someone will find the time to
fix this in the 1.2 series.

The bug is not present in GIMP-1.3.

Thanks, Sven.  I was afraid of that.  I had 1.3 installed, but
downgraded when it seemed that the GAP stuff wasn't yet ready for 1.3. 
I'm just a newbie with gimp so I am doing everything the hard way as I
learn.  I haven't yet actually needed GAP so perhaps I would be better
off with 1.3.  Thanks again.

GAP is working for gimp-1.3.

It is available at http://sven.gimp.org, hopefully you can work through
the complicated index page there.  He lost some readiblity through his
clean design, maybe.

First of all, you can have gimp-1.2 and gimp-1.3 installed
side-by-side. There's no need to downgrade or upgrade; it's simply two
different packages without any clashing files.

Then, if you haven't used GAP yet, perhaps you don't need it at all.
If you want to work on animations, there are prereleases of GAP for
GIMP 1.3 available from http://sven.gimp.org/.

Thank you. I guessed that from the way they both installed.

Thank you. Needed or not I still want to learn it.  I have re-installed
gimp-1.3.20 and downloaded GAP from your site.  Are there any caveats? 
Do I just install with the same prefix as gimp?

Thank you, Carol. I have just installed 1.3 again and I have downloaded
GAP from Sven's site.

Please do always use the latest 1.3 release which is 1.3.21 at the
moment. If you are brave, you could even try the CVS version.

It doesn't really where you install GAP to. It should find GIMP-1.3
and install the plug-ins into the GIMP plug-in directory even if that
is not in the configured prefix.
