I use these options a lot in my art, and they appear to not exist in the current Gimp… the controls are so complex that I can't be sure, lol… so I really need my previous options back! Can anyone tell me how to do that… and/or, how my options vanished in the first place? Thanks!
That reads like you have reverted to a Gimp 2.8. If that is the case you will need to go back to Gimp 2.10
The differences for anyone not used to Gimp 2.8
- 2.8 has a single option the colour (1) and clicking in the color option brings up the choose color dialogue with its colour picker. Only that single option and you might just see from the preview, leaves the foreground with some transparency.
- 2.10 can set the colour the same way, clicking in the color to bring up the dialogue (2) also a direct picker (3) More options (4) to improve the result and because it is now a GEGL operation the canvas shows the result.
