Problem with animation speed (gif) |

Hello there, i'm new to this forum, please excuse my english.
I've created a gif image by combining several layers using filter/animation/optimize difference (or gif) ans set the duration of each frame manually (1200ms for the first and last layer, 600ms for the other ones) by editing the name of the frames.
When previewing result in gimp (filter/animation/replay animation) it works perfectly, but for some reason when i export the result into a gif image, all the frames duration are the same (100ms set by default, wich i can modify when exporting but that doesn't solve the problem).
I tried to double the first and last frame to trick the computer, but gimp detect the doubled frames and set it to 200ms istead of 100ms, wich is not working at the end ..
Worst thing is that the whole operation worked out for some other gif that i made (with same method and sometimes same frames), and didn't work for some others gif. The result seem random to me.
Is someone can explain where i'm doying wrong, it will be greatly appreciated !
Thanks.

Creating layer from a selection |

Hey,
New to Gimp. Used photoshop back in the days, but not recently.
I'm currently trying to create a layer from a selection within an image. I'm fairly certain that used to be part of my workflow on photoshop. The way I came up with in Gimp (2.10) is this:
1 - Create the selection, using say the Fuzzy selection wand.
2 - Create a floating layer (?) from the Select... menu on my selection. Now I have floating layer on the right.
3 - Then make that floating layer a real layer, using right-click on the floating layer and "to new layer".
Now, it appears that the step creating the floating layer actually impacts the initial layer from which I made a selection. It removed the selected area from the initial layer.
That's not what I expect - I'm creating new layers in order to work on those layers, without impacting whatever I have underneath. Is there a way to achieve this? I see a workaround - Duplicate the base layer from which I made a selection first. Then select & float from the copy. But then that's an extra step that feels unecessary....
Better ideas?
