Thanks Sven!

Btw, I love the subtle design changes you guys made in terms of the 
menus and such.

Much more streamlined and less redundant than before. I really like it!

Upgrading to 2.3. is a rather bad idea since this is an unstable
development snapshot. You better keep 2.2 around for real work.

  

the problem I'm having is that before, I could choose
a layer and using the magic wand selector, I could isolate my
selection
to only content in that layer with regards to "empty" space around it.
But now, it seems to pass through to the lowest visible layer which
makes 
it impossible to do some editing on the current chosen layer. Is this
a problem? 



Toggle off "Sample merged" in the tool options.

[Gimp-user] Selection problem on 2.3.11?

2006-09-13 Thread Darren Govoni



Hi,
   I just upgraded from 2.2 to 2.3.11. 
Btw, Thanks for the path-to-text
ability, works great! the problem I'm having is 
that before, I could choose
a layer and using the magic wand selector, I could 
isolate my selection
to only content in that layer with regards to 
"empty" space around it.
But now, it seems to pass through to the 
lowest visible layer which makes 
it impossible to do some editing on the current chosen layer. Is this a problem? 
or is there a new way to do what was easy before? I don't want to have
to turn all the other layers off to select the 
continuous empty area of a layer.
 
Thanks,
Darren
