| Select tool acting weirdly! |

My Magic Wand select tool was acting normally and then suddenly it stopped selecting (none of the settings have changed as far as I can tell). I selected part of an area with the rectangle select and that worked properly, but when I tried to select the rest the Magic Wand did nothing (it's set to "add to selection")--no selection. Then I tried it on a different area that has various parts seen through tree branches hat I need to select and it selected the entire area in a rectangle (as if it were the rectangle select). Any idea what's going on? Obviously there must be some kind of wrong setting but I can't find it.
Thanks in advance!

| Swappable iPhone/Screen Mockups in Gimp? |

I've used a few Photoshop templates in the past to create iPhone/Computer screen mockups.
They typically work by replacing a layer that houses the content, which will then show on the screen of the iPhone.
I've tried opening one in Gimp and it doesn't work the same way (nor did I really expect it to).
Assuming I had a png of an iPhone (or computer or whatever) in which the screen was transparent, how do I make a layer that will show up in the phone, which can be easily replaced from project to project.

Hi everybody!
I'd like to know how I could solve the issue 0xc000007b error I get when i launch the Gfig plugin exe.
My computer is Windows 10 64 bits run. I guess some 32 v 64 bits issue, but I am not sure.
Thanks for your help.

| How To Do Path Thing? |

creating a path which is actually following a long convoluted trail through an image of a large stretch of bushland.
Instructions don't mention how to stop doing it. Just pick another tool?
They don't mention how to keep it - just happens automatically when I save the image?
Doesn't make clear to me if I must convert to a selection. ?
Not sure if I have to 'stroke' it ?
Can I come back to it and edit it next time - continue it as one path or does it get 'frozen' once 'stroked' etc ?
p.s.
And if I can step back to a most primitive basic question:
I always immediately make a copy layer in the belief that this way I'm ensuring I'll no way damage my original image.
Is this a bit daft? Would I get just as much protection if I immediately simply save the image with a new name?
But anyway, having done it, created a copy layer to work on I'm always thinking I should then delete that original layer and then I'm safe, all connection with my original now broken. Is that equally daft?
p.p.s. I suppose there's no way to get back a path that disappeared?
I couldn't find how to end the making of a path no matter where I looked. In the finish I read something that suggested double clicking on the last node would do it. So I did that. All seemed peaceful. So then I selected the move tool.
The path immediately disappeared and wouldn't come back.
That was a good half hour's work. How to use the path tool? Including 'stop using' the path tool?
