Re: [Gimp-user] Cut tool doesn't remove unvantet aera.

If you export to JPEG, you can't have transparency (format doesn't
support it), so you get the backrground color instead.

But what is the "cut tool"?  By default the "crop tool" crops the image
(all layers) so there is no transparency left.

But when exporting and importing the image it has the original size with the "removed" area colored with the background color used when the image was exported. The image original is showing fine inside the cut area.
