It does not mean that - it's showing the layer boundary, but there might still be a selection. > (ctrl+shift+a) and repeating again... nothing either. OK Check also in tool options you do't have Registered selected. At the bottom right of Tool Options for teh clone tool is a Reset icon you can press, see if that helps. You can also check you have not clicked on anything in Channels - all 3 (or 4) channels should be selected. Channels is under Windows/dockable dialogues/channels You can also right-click the layer and check its properties. Under Switches, only Visible should be checked, and the two Coomposite items should both be set to Auto. Mode should be Normal but i think you already showed that was the case. Also, if the image is in Indexed mode, use Image/Mode to change it t RGB. Also make sure you do not have caps lock pressed. To compile gimp yourself you will need its dependencies - a recent enough version of gtk+ in partcular, as well as gegl and babl and mypaint, the last 3 installed into a custom prefix such as ~/opt/ to avoid breakage with the system one. https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Hacking:Building has an overview, you'll need to check out the 2.10 branch though, git checkout 2.10 after the git clone and before doing anything else. > > > Liam -- Liam Quin - https://www.fromoldbooks.org/ with fabulous vintage art and fascinating texts to read. https://www.delightfulcomputing.com/ Full-time "slave" in voluntary servitude _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
