Are you staying with 2.8 for a reason? Can you drag out the UI further, using the mouse? Try double clicking the title bar. |

Trying to make Gimp look like photoshop perhaps ? Congratulations you made it into a digital etch-a-sketch Until you really know how all the tools work set it back to the default. Edit -> Preferences -> reset tools options / reset windows. You really do need the tool options and if you need full screen the tab key toggles on/off. I can just about get that into a 1 minute imgur video. https://i.imgur.com/xLlZSR2.mp4 |

2.8 is the default download for Linux Mint. Yesterday I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it was still 2.8 |

I'm back. Now I have lost the box where you can select the opacity, gradient, etc. for the clone tool and other tools.

You are in multi-window mode. You closed the Tool Options. You closed (or maybe minimised) the Layers / resources dock. Why did you do that? There once was a serial breaker of Gimp 2.8 on the old gimpforums.com Some videos I made to help. https://youtu.be/i2sKkA3vqvw reset gimp 4 minutes Which you have already done but more information in the video. https://youtu.be/vqEUZvvhFKY restoring 2 minutes more dragging docks around https://youtu.be/lkAPp1ckCNs 6 minutes further setting up Gimp 2.8 interface. Have a look through those. Back to my original advice, reset Gimp to defaults. Then Do not move the Windows around. Put Gimp into single Window mode |
