Re: [Gimp-user] Second try at Re: select region inside a rectangle
Thanks very much to everyone, I have a great experience learning new tricks :) I am posting at quite a few lists, and this one is one of the most helpful and friendly.

I have the following (hopefully simple) problem: given two rectangles with a common border, is there a way to select the region *inside* one rectangle (to fill it with another color), without affecting the contents of the other rectangle? The steps I outlined work for your attached image of two white rectangles surrounded by black lines. Depending upon the details of the actual images with which you are working, you might be able to make it work with more or fewer steps, but the principle should still hold. ns ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user -- Adrian Dusa Romanian Social Data Archive 1, Schitu Magureanu Bd. 050025 Bucharest sector 5 Romania Tel.:+40 21 3126618 \ +40 21 3120210 / int.101 Fax: +40 21 3158391 ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

If you save the textures there with the extension .pat (after opening them in the Gimp), they should be available as Gimp textures (you would have to restart the Gimp first). Thanks very much Claus, I am indeed under Linux so this is fine.

[Gimp-user] select region inside a rectangle
Dear all, I'm a Gimp newbie, using it for a long time but at an amateur level. I have the following (hopefully simple) problem: given two rectangles with a common border, is there a way to select the region *inside* one rectangle (to fill it with another color), without affecting the contents of the other rectangle? I attached a .png file just for illustration, I hope attachments are allowed. The problem is of course simplified, in the real problem I have different shapes for each rectangle (but still with comon borders, like in maps).
