Until recently the routine for trimming the boundary of an image was, (1) Select > All, (2) grab a boundary with pointer and drag it toward the center, (3) drag other boundaries in a similar way until the desired boundary was indicated, (4) Image > Crop to Selection. Done.
Appears that an update since the last time I used GIMP added a new feature. (?) Now left and right boundaries are linked with top and bottom boundaries. Dragging the top boundary pulls the sides in simultaneously. =8~( There must be cases where that is helpful but what if the objective is to change only one boundary? The top for example. I've tried unlinking Width and Height in Layer > Layer to Boundary Size. No dice. I've tried holding <Shift>, <Ctrl> or <Alt> while dragging a boundary. No dice. How is the new feature overridden?
