Re: [Gimp-user] Why can't I clone

2007-01-16 Thread David Gowers

Your window manager is exceptionally uncooperative. Reconfigure it or use a
different one. I've NEVER heard of a window manager that's as rude as to
block CTRL+click from application use.

doesn't change. If I click while holding down the CTRL key, the pointer
changes to a hand, and moving the mouse moves the *WINDOW* on the screen.
When I release the mouse button, the pointer goes back to the clone tool

the forbidden symbol.

I can't select a source area, so cloning is impossible.

Why?
All help is appreciated.

1. Click on the Clone tool
2. Move to the source area
3. Press Ctrl
4. Left click
5. Release Ctrl and Left click button
6. move to target area, start cloning
