Color-to-alpha only applies to the selection, so you can restrict its effects by doing a selection first. For instance to remove a background, use the wand to get a rough selection of the background, grow the selection by a couple of pixels so that it includes the edges of the foreground, and perform color-to-alpha. _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
