Apologies if people get this duplicated but I didn't receive my own message and thought it may have been lost.
---------------------------------------------------------- Hi there, I have a question on copying a portion of an image in gimp. First, a little context. I needed to create a layer with only some features in an image. For that, I first selected a suitable area in the image using the "Free Select" tool. I then copied its contents (Edit -> Copy) and pasted it (Edit -> Paste) in a new layer (Layer -> New Layer). This creates a new layer with only the desired features, as can be verified making the new layer the only visible layer. Now, if I go to the "Channel Dialog", I can see the RGB and alpha channels looking right, with only the selected features there. However, if I make a copy of one of the RGB channels (right-click on the R channel, for example, and duplicate it), there is more than just those features, as can be verified by making it the only visible channel. My question then is if this is a correct behavior and if so, how can I make a copy of a selection with only the contents of that selection? Thank you, Hermano _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
