Similarly, repositioning the layer is a rather hit and miss way of repositioning the image that it contains. What should I be doing? TIA Simon ImageCanvas size Make it the size you like (or can).

I just want to say that I just recovered from De Quervain's disease after an intensive week using GIMP. I'm not familiar with the new versions of this software, but mine requires keeping both my thumb and index finger pressed against the mouse while painting and retouching pictures. I did this for 4-5 days, 3-4 non-interrupted hours a day. I ended up with a strong pain in my wrist due to the inflammed tendons at the base of my thumb (De Quervain's disease). My right hand was practically inoperational for 2 1/2 months. A corticosteroid injection and a constant routine of ice and medication saved me from a wrist surgery. I could not believe a mouse could induce such damage to my hand while using GIMP. H. Noriega Hi, as already replied, all known painting software require the mouse button to be pressed while painting. However very few users actually go painting 4-5 hours uninterrupted - of course, if that is a routine task, the first thing is to get an appropriate mouse that will be more anatomical. That should minimize things. The motive I am writing however is another one: Mr. Noriega, can you think of a better way of handling painting with the input devices found in most computers? (i.e. keyboard and mouse - maybe mic). The GIMP is comunity based, and you can help us build a better software Even one that gets ahead the commercial counterparts in some respects. What I ask of you is the following: use your experience and comunity discussion to get to a nice proposal of how the interface could be improved so that such an usage could be more pleasant. Then attach what you get to to a feature request to the gimp (this can be done at http://bugzilla.gimp.org) The GIMP is written and maintained by volunteers, so there is no guarantee that whatever you suggest will be veer implemented - but most likely, someone will be interested enough to take it ahead.

The problem is that when creating animations that transition either from full opacity to full transparency or vice versa, everything seems fine while creating the animation, but my transitions disappear in the final product (animated GIF). If going from full opacity to transparent, the layer remains fully opaque until the last frame and then disappears. Similarly, it remains hidden until it reaches full opacity. I'm using xcf source images in rgb mode and xcf frames in rgb mode. This is maddening, as I have spent several hours creating what I thought was a working image, only to have my animation transformed into a mess after performing a frames to image, optimize for GIF, and saving as animation. What am I missing? You're missing, that gif DOES NOT support partial opacity. You can try this workaround: Insert white layers below each existing layer in sequence. Then merge down each layer to inserted white layer. And then save as gif animation. That worked for me.
