Von: Peter Karlsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] I should be able to move any layer freely about and manipulating it separately from the rest of the layers (and the pic/canvas). You can do this, at least I don't get what your problems with this are. This is how layers work in CAD-software (to which I

Hi! I'm trying to rotate an image (which is in a layer) by 90 degrees which is taller than it's width. So when I rotate it, gimp will automatically crop the image no matter what I do. I have the Clip result unchecked. Gimp 2.2.8. How do I remedy this (I'm stumped)? Best regards Peter Karlsson
