Perhaps you find help at http://gimp-savvy.com/BOOK/index.html there go to "layer masks" Hago

Then you're right. no, I am saying that when I applied the mask, the only way I can modify Alpha values is using leves or curves, seleccting "Alpha" on the pop-up menu and then modifying _only_ alpha values of the layer. But its a pain in the ass doing it this way. Regards niko > > Hago

I am shure that there´s a better way ;) but you can try this: - open the gray scale image, then Edit -> Copy - open the working image, add a new layer with a layer mask, activate layer mask and do a Edit -> Paste in that layer - in layers & channels, roght click on the layer mask and choose "mask to selection" Ciao, Bjørn -- o_) Bjoern Buergerhttp://bbuerger.home.pages.de .-. _/\ .--- --/---\-/(/-' Linux User Group Braunschweig (LUG - BS) `-'http://www.tu-bs.de/initiativen/LUG/
image to selection
In Corel Photopaint, one can load a selection from a gray scale image. Is it possible to do that in GIMP? /Carl Winbäck

It's in the same menu with "Apply Layer Mask". But it would be a plain mask, not the mask you've applied!!! -"Layers"-"Alpha to selection" should be useful for you, too. Also, have a look at the channels dialogue. Hope it helps! CU, Michael ---=[ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ]=--- ---=[ http://technoid.xodox.com ]=---
