Hi David, If convenient, please advise me of the bug number on this so that I can track it. Thank you very much.
Related to the "bug", I hope you also noted the problem that there is no Preferences option of using "black" as the default for newly created images. You said... > BTW, floating before rotating is NOT how I would do this. Please share your reasons why you would not do that. It seems perfectly logical now that I know it is possible, and it seems to be _exactly_ the method/result I wanted without all the other mucking around. (All the other mucking around [alpha channel, add layer, etc.] may seem simple to Gimpers, but please do it 10,000 times and then tell me how you feel about it -- We have so far scanned & edited over 50,000 such images in Photoshop and have more than double that number yet to go.) I _really_ appreciate your mention of Select...Float -- that is exactly the needed answer IMHO.
