[Gimp-user] Cut tool doesn't remove unvantet aera.

[Kolbjørn Stuestøl <kolbjoern stuestoel no>]

When using the cut tool it cuts the image as aspected. The area outside the cutting line is made transparent. 
But when exporting and importing the image it has the original size with the "removed" area colored with the 
background color used when the image was exported. The image original is showing fine inside the cut area. 

Tried to save the cut image and reloading it again and then exporting it, but with the same result. 

Tried to reinstall GIMP, but it didn't help anything. 

A way around is to copy the wanted area as a new image and then export the copy. 

Running GIMP 2.10.32 on Windows 11. (Downloaded from gimp.org/downloads/). 

Hoping someone has a solution on this problem.
