No, you don't create a layer and paste an image in it, you use either
"Edit>Paste as>New layer" or "File>Open as layers" and pick the image
file using the file selector. In both cases you end up with your image
in a new layer. As long as that image remains on a layer distinct from
the rest, moving and scaling it shouldn't be a problem.
Shouldn't be a problem... Hmmm.
I've used "File-Open As layer" before. That how I wound up with the new
layer/image in the center of my work area. Moving it IS the problem. I
don't
know how. IN the attached example, I need to enlarge the image and move
it to
the right.
I'm trying to understand how to do that.

Found it !!!
Would not have expected it to be buried so deep in a menu structure (I'd
have
expected "Move" to be and option under "Edit", but Now that I've found
it, it
works great.

I suppose you are using KDE?
If so, go to "System Settings" - "Color" - "Options" and uncheck "Apply
colors
to non-Qt applications", that should fix it.

Subject: [Gimp-user] Two different Wacom tablets - Pressure
Sensitivity
Message-ID: <83596 forums gimpusers com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
I am a Digital Technology teacher, wanting to use Gimp for some graphic
design
work. For reasons that I can't reverse we have two sets of Wacom tablet
models
in the class:
Intuos pen tablet - CTL-480
Intuos Draw tablet - CTL-490/W0
(fyi: we asked for "the same" but were our order hit a time when one
model went
out of stock so ended up with half of each model.)
When either of the tablets are in, both of them show pressure sensitivity
is
correctly detected in the Wacom control panel (as I press harder the bar
goes
up).
When I use Adobe Photoshop, pressure sensitivity is working for either
tablet.
At this point the company who got two sets of tablet in for our order
says they
both work and that we should be happy with their service.
But in Gimp 2.8, it seems that either of the tablets may work (first
time) but
once the have both been used, only the CTL-490/W0 model works with
pressure
sensitivity, all the while the Wacom Control Panel and Photoshop both say
either
tablet is fine. I have gone through and Edit => Input Devices to disable
and
then re-enable the pen pressure but the CTL-480 won't regain pressure
sensitivity.
This seems to be a Gimp issue as the Wacom Control Panel and Adobe
Photoshop
work with pressure sensitivity just fine.
... How can I fix this problem so that student will be able to use either
of the
Wacom tablet models?
Thanks in advance.
