[Gimp-user] moving parf of an image

[JLuc <jluc no-log org>]

'o

i'm getting used to gimp
but something still keeps me wondering "am i doing right ?" :
its how i move part of an image :
i select the part i wanna move (using any of the select tools),
cut and paste it in the floating selection layer,
move it (and possibly do other transforms),
and anchor it back to where it belongs to.

Is there some simpler way i'm not aware of,
for example without cut'n'pasting,
when all i wanna do is moving part of an image ?
