GEGL Operation dialog when clicking on image - jack63ss - 03-04-2025

I am having an issue with the GEGL tool. When I click on any image I get a GEGL Operation dialog. If I click on Cancel the dialog goes away but as soon as I click on the image again the dialog comes back. Even happens on a New blank image. I was using Gimp for a little while before this started happening, and I guess it is possible I did something to cause the problem, but I have no idea what I did or how to fix it. 

SO, I rebooted and then uninstalled/reinstalled Gimp and the problem was still there. Then I uninstalled Gimp, deleted all the GIMP/GIMP 2.10 directories I could find, and reinstalled. Now it is working OKAY. Checked around the forum but didn't see the problem reported anywhere, but does anyone have an idea what is going on ? What could I have done to make this happen, so I don't do it again ?

Thanks, Jack

It is a known "effect" with either that Tools -> GEGL Operation or a GEGL filter such as Gradient / Any of the filters with a  gegl against them in the menu.

When finished using the filter, change to a non-GEGL tool, I use the paint tool but you could use the measure tool ( for safety).
