Hello there - I am a novice user of Gimp and I'm having a problem that a friend of mine doesn't and we wonder if it is a Windows 11 issue. What I am doing is the following:
First I open an image that is size 1024 x 1024.
Then I open as a layer another image but this much larger at 3054 x 3054
It seems I can only see a 1024 x 1024 section of this larger image
I then use the scale tool and replace the width 3054 with 1024
As soon as I click into the height box, this 2nd image vanishes just showing the first image
I hit the 'scale' button anyway
I suspect my 2nd image rescaled has moved to outside of the visible area - on one occasion I was able to bring this rescaled image back by using move tool and keeping finger on right cursor key and slowly this image slid back into view but it doesnt do this each time.
Am I doing something wrong or is this a Windows 11 quirk since my friend on Windows 10 doesn't get this result - on her computer the rescaling acts as one would expect.
Grateful for any advice
