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 am used to). > If I have to "anchor" the floating layer, then I'll have to perform > additional steps if there's another manipulation I would like to > do to the layer (without affecting the whole image/pic/canvas). Especially, I don't get why doing something on a layer - even temprarily hovering and anchoring a selection - should affect the whole image. Anchoring is just a click outside the floating selection, so it's not many additional steps. BTW, could you explain what each of the "image/pic/canvas" mean to you? > But I guess I can emulate this behaviour with multiple pictures. It might be a good thing to describe the workflow you're used to, then we could try to translate it into GIMP terminology for you.
