i too don't understand how the same function in two versions of a program would be different. there are things about programming i don't understand (how to do it) and when a program works and the developers try to make it better, somehow they succeed in making it worse. but to the question, the functions in the two versions, you would think, would be the same.
my suggestion to you is to join the developers mailing list and pose your question to them. they may not even be aware of the change in functionality. or maybe, there is something you are not aware to do (like when you make a selection, to press the "enter" key to "save" the selection so you can continue to do what you could do in 2.8) to make the function operate like it did in 2.8. yet, they may have an answer for you rather than a workaround to your problem. cheers dwain On Wed, Dec 5, 2018 at 12:55 PM Henk Koning via gimp-user-list < gimp-user-list@gnome.org> wrote: > Thank you, Steve, for taking the time to react.
