Transparent should be opaque, opaque should be transparent, almost transparent should be almost opaque, etc. Quickest way is to right click on the layer and choose Add Layer Mask. From there choose Transfer layer's alpha channel. Then select the newly created mask and do Invert from the Colors menu. You can then apply the mask if you want. -- Ville Pätsi ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] resynthesizer problems
Frank, When you start Gimp, you don't see a menu item called Filters? If not, your installation is defective. Also, if you don't see heal selection, you don't have python installed in your Gimp installation. Hope this helps.

[Gimp-user] Gimp doesn't respond to mouse in image area, at all
Hello. Some time ago, the Gimp stopped responding to my mouse in the image window. In other windows and on menus the mouse works fine (ie I can select brushes and such and use the interface without problems), but in the image window (or more precicely, the canvas area) it's as if the mouse doesn't even exist. All kinds of clicks are ignored, the rulers doesn't show the position of the cursor, and the position in the lower left also isn't updated (it is set once upon entering the window, but after that it's dead). My tablet still works fine, but not being able to use the mouse for anything is somewhat annoying. This originally happened out of the blue one day while using Gimp 2.2.11 (I unfortunately have no idea what caused this to happen). I tried upgrading to 2.2.12 and then 2.3.13, without success. I also deleted the ~/.gimp* directory in the hope that regenerating the config would fix the problem, but no. No matter what I do, I can't make the Gimp recognize the mouse in the image window. The mouse isn't anything special, and it used to work with the exact same X config I've got now. I haven't changed the xorg.conf file in several months. The Gimp is the only application with this problem. This is on a dual-core amd64 processor in 64-bit mode (haven't tried 32-bit), Linux kernel 2.6.18, Xorg 7.1. Does anyone know what might be causing this, and how to fix it ? Thanks, ~ Gerry I have the same problem, can anyone help?

Help me. I am new at GIMP and installed the 2.8 today. After I run it and create new, I can click on the tools, layer windows, and the pattern and gradients normally(Like how I saw in online videos), but I can't click on the image/canvas area in the main window. I can click on the menu bar at the main window, but not the image.

Re: [Gimp-user] Clone tool not working
When using the paintbrush-tool, ctrl-clicking should function as a color-picker. Does that work? No that does not work. In the 'Keyboard shorcut' menu, I can see shortcuts, for example, copy, cut etc, where Control key is written as CTRL but in case of clone tool, the default key is C. It does not accept at at all neither CTRL nor LEFT CLICK, while trying to reset. Presseing C activates the clone tool but the error is as I have reported in my first mail.

Re: [Gimp-user] Clone tool not working
Does your desktop environment use ctrl+click for something else? As far as I know, ctrl+click is not set to anything else. I have checked the System keyboard shortcut list and could not find it. Setting the shortcut for clone to other key combinations also does not work.
