Re: [Gimp-user] Windows Version lacks 'Select a region to grab'

["Dora Smith" <villandra gmail com>]

So are you having trouble selecting a region to grab, with other kinds of 
images in GIMP or only screenshots?

I haven't tried to use that feature; I use select, then copy, then paste, or 
else clip the first image to what I actually want and then paste it as a new 
layer.

If there is a selective problem with screenshots, it may be the image type 
or something of that sort; try saving it to a different file type in your 
screenshot program.

I know, but on the other hand I'll very often edit the screenshot(s)
with Gimp anyway, because Gimp can do eveything the screenshots editors
do, and more...
