Draw your larger selection and save it to a channel. Check the "Expand from center" option in the tool's Option dialog and then click inside the selection to activate the drag handles[*]. Use the handles to resize your rectangle. Invert your selection and then intersect it with the previously saved channel (CTL+SHIFT the red button next to the trashcan in the Channels dialog). [*] Even though the handles might be visible, they are not actually active after a "Select->Save to channel" is performed (this is probably a bug). _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
