FWIW, context-help on the rectangle selection tool shows that one can move a selection by pressing the Alt key; or subtract areas from a selection with the Ctrl key or add to a selection with the Shift key, but those keys also do something else at the same time, making them nearly useless. I don't know how to resize a selection -- I'm amazed that there aren't any handles on the selection. It's as if The Gimp's authors have never seen a (non-*nix) graphics app. ____________________________________________________________________ TonyN.:' <mailto:tonynelson@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> ' <http://www.georgeanelson.com/>
