as seen here above I made and rotated several selections without any problem.

a friend of mine now wants to do the same, despite the same settings as I do myself, the rotation is not working for my friend

here blocks the operation while executing

we are obliged to close everything because gimp remains blocked


I myself have no problem with the same settings but my friend is blocked every time,i checked all the details with my friend and see no difference everything is as my settings.
did I miss something, who can help us find that possible small detail.

Gimper66, in het gereedschapsvenster staat bij het draaigereedschap de selectie (2) geselecteerd in plaats van de laag (1).

Gimper66, in the tool window, the selection (2) is selected instead of the layer (1).

No, it should it rotate the selection. The setting is right. He need it to use the Mode> Selection because he's just rotating the selection. I recently used this setting in my plugin "Denim Patch text effect".
Maybe your friend memory was exhausted or low. Just a thought.

thanks everyone for the quick response.
I also suspected that it could be the computer memory that is too low at that moment
But just to be sure, I hope there are more answers to come.

You can go to: Preferences>System resources>Tile cache size. This will sets the maximum RAM that Gimp will use.

Before trying to debug anything, I would remove all those scripts and plugins (IMHO that's way too much plugins :shock: , especially when you know that a lot of them are badly written and/or do not work anymore and left GIMP in an unstable state or do not reset the tools how they were before running the plugin)

Once you've removed them ALL, (tell your friend to save them somewhere else if he really like them), try again to rotate the selection with a neat and clean installation, if it works then you know that the problem comes from the plugins > then add your plugins by group and try to rotate the selection between adding group of plugins.
(closing that webcam and other software as well before running GIMP, would be a good move to be sure nothing is interfering with GIMP)

everything is solved the gimp program was violated,we uninstalled gimp and then reinstalled it.
everything is working perfectly now.
he may have downloaded something from the internet, something that damaged the gimp program.
but all's well that ends well.
Thanks everyone for the comments,greetings, gimper66
