[Gimp-user] how to select within a selection

2010-08-19 Thread Helen 
Can someone tell me how to make a fuzzy selection within a rectangular
selection?

I want to bucket-fill the green areas only in the top left.  So I
rectangular-select the
top left, and use the fuzzy-select tool, but the fuzzy tool continues to
selection in
the entire image.

Thanks much,
Helen Etters

Hold down CTRL+SHIFT while making your fuzzy select.
