Hi there, thanks for reading this!
I have an image (layer) in b&w I want to use as a mask. In Photoshop, I used to make sure the layer is active and just press "strg+alt+2" or make a selection from the RBG or Green channel in one click. This gave me a selection that is hard in the bright white areas and softer in the areas where the light is less bright. I used this simple method to edit the highlights in my images with absolute precision, since I can paint on the b&w layer and exclude certain areas as well. It was so quick an easy and I was wondering if there is fast way to get the same selection out of gimp?
Thank you in advance
