Gimp rectangular-select copy/paste only pastes correctly once.
Last modified: 2018-06-17 17:19:25 UTC
Created attachment 372204 [details] Information from Gimp bug-report tools Gimp rectangular-select copy/paste only pastes correctly once. When pasting a selected section a second time, then the 2nd pasted section usually does appear, but moving it around fails. Selecting a second time (after a first paste) is also often not possible, the selection stays empty (so doing a rectangular select from left top to lower right does only show an empty selection at lower right). Workaround is to select a different tool (pencil for example) and then try rectangular-selection again. Then the tool usually works properly again (for one paste action). The (type of) image I was working on is an indexed png with transparency. An example of such image can be found at: http://forum.freeciv.org/f/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=90128 (Trident tiles for Alien World, message from Danau on Wed Apr 25, 2018) Selecting/pasting a second time also crashed once. Attached the two pieces of information provided by the Gimp bug-reporter tool.
