Basically what I said was that while the rectangular select
works fine,
all the others don't. When I select with Oval, Hand draw or
Intelligent
scissors, the cut from the Gimp looks perfect, but when I paste into
OpenOffice Writer it is always a rectangular picture the width and
height being the outer most points of the cut.
It all makes it pretty useless for what I need it for. Would
you know
of a way of getting this right?
You could try this, though it's a bit of a kludgey workaround :).
1. Make sure the layer you are working with has an alpha
channel (Right click the layer in the layers dialog-Add
alpha channel).
2. After making the selection (oval, scissors, or whatever),
invert the selection. (Cntrl-I or Menu-Select-Invert) 3.
Cut everything else out (Cntrl-X). Now these regions will all
be transparent, leaving only what you want.
4. Invert the selection again (Cntrl-I) returning to your
original selection.
5. Copy that (Cntrl-C) and try pasting it. Even if it pastes
a rectangular bounding box, everything other than what you
want will not show.
I tried that, but it doesn't work. Although The Gimp clearly shows the cut
out as an oval, with the rest of the picture gone, when I copy and paste
it
into OOo Writer it pastes as a rectangular picture (i.e. *not* a
rectangular
bounding box with an oval picture), with borders the size of the outermost
points of the oval.
Cheers

I want to cut out part of a screen shot and paste the cutout into another
application.
1 - I do the Shift - PrintScreen
2 - In The Gimp I do File | New and paste. Now the screen shot is in The
Gimp
But none of the Selection Tools can be activated. It sticks to the cross
arrows that moves the image around the workspace.
Is it possible at all to work on a pasted image?
TIA
Gert

Yes, you have to anchor the pasted image
Activate the Layers dialogue and you will see what is happening
