[Gimp-user] how to fill...

[scythargon <forums gimpusers com>]

I have area(the whole layer) that I have filled with semi-transparent gradient, so now, I select it - 
(layer->alpha to selection) and trying to fill with ordinary non-transparent color, but I get the same area 
with the same semi-transparent gradient, the only thing that I changed - the main color of gradient:(
