As a casual, inexperienced user of GIMP, I would like to add my comment about saving selections. Using a trial version of PS I tried many different things on the same photo(s). Some of them being colour fiddling, DOF manipulation, cut-and-paste, and many more. I found the ability to save a (named) selection, (and indeed a number of different selections for the same photo) to be very useful, and in fact pretty essential. Converting to GIMP, (because PS would bust my budget!) I was alarmed when I could not find a "selection save". Having read through this thread, I will try to use "save to channel", but I just cannot get my head around how to retrieve the "saved" selection. Any assistance on this will be most welcome. BTW: GIMP is truly great!!!!! _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
