GIMP question

Bother!!!

I think I’m doing the exact same things… but I can’t get red asterisks on the final document for that page…

Sigh

This is so frustrating.

I’ve closed GIMP repeatedly. I set the text color to red. I open a new copy of the image. The box is red, I type and asterisk… and it’s black.

Sigh.

I reopen GIMP before I set the text color to red, obviously.

I wonder if I actually have to shut off my computer between tries…

So, it apparently takes all those things. A computer restart so GIMP starts fresh. Then selection the color before opening the text tool… etc. Whew.

Wow, that’s very cumbersome behavior for GIMP. I don’t seem to have that issue, I can change font colors fairly easily. Maybe you have a memory problem with your computer where you have to clear it by rebooting? Do you have a lot of applications open at the same time?

Hi, ??
I have a new computer with a solid state hard drive. About half my memory is empty. But, it does come with a lot less memory than a regular hard drive.

The manual sure makes it seem as if changing color is easier than I’ve found it.

It could be that this computer saves things more… The problem seems to be that once I use some tool or function in GIMP then it keeps offering it to me…

I sure wish I could think of the similar but different question that came up…

OH, I know. I just noticed that I’ve had visits to my Home Page Archives… What’s that? and how are people accessing it? I mean, it’s not in my menu, at least not that I’m aware of…

And, WP is showing that the Referrer is Twitter….
