I never tried this before. What if, say, you construct a square with the paths tool, select it, and then decide to add a triangle to this shape and select this, too? I tried holding down SHIFT but that doesn't work. Any other ways?

Please keep in mind that I am mostly ignorant when it comes to using Gimp 2.1. I am making a cover for the book I just finished. The main image I'm using for the front cover needs to be made slightly transparent. Here's what I've done: First I clicked on the image (which is, I believe, my second layer) and then used the "Opacity" menu on the right to try and adjust the image. What I get is a checkerboard. Totally weird, at least from this newbie's point of view. What is happening and how do I get this to work for me. (BTW something I read seemed to suggest that it mattered what type of file your image was saved as. This is a JPEG.)

| Pasting from the Clipboard created by PrtScr key |

I have been unable to discover a way for a script to paste from the clipboard (clipboard image created by "PrtScr" key). I can obviously use the edit>paste option to do it manually (which works), but the procedure in a script using "gimp-edit-paste-as-new-image" does not return an image. I realise that the procedure notes state
"This procedure pastes a copy of the internal GIMP edit buffer to a new image. The GIMP edit buffer will be empty unless a call was previously made to either 'gimp-edit-cut' or 'gimp-edit-copy'. This procedure returns the new image or -1 if the edit buffer was empty."
and the clipboard is not mentioned (whereas it is in pasting brushes and patterns).
I have not been able to find anything on this after many hours of searching.
My question is "Is it possible in TinyScheme/ScriptFu?"
