I have a really crippling problem (2.8 user)
I am working on a large topographic file which is 22 000 x 22 000 . Gimp is saying 4 GO and some when I load it . My RAM is 32 GO .
Now what I need is to isolate a part of this picture (about 5 000 x 3000) .
Whatever I try (cutting off , doing a transparent or white selection) when I want to save the result , GIMP crashes to desktop with no error message .
I will not be able to finish my work if I cannot get this small 5000x300 part what makes me desperate .
Can anybody here help me with explaining what is happening (I have obviously more than enough RAM so why would GIMP want to crash ?) and how I could solve the problem ?
Many thanks in advance .
