Can we start again from scratch, with the original image, the actual FG color. You can also attach the before and after images (as XCF)?
My before and after images are available in my first post. The toolbox settings would be the same, because I never touch them, other than the threshold that I didn’t record the exact # for and so can’t duplicate, and of course the little square showing a different foreground color. :-)
The bucket fill shouldn’t be tinting an entire image EVER, right, regardless of what threshold or foreground color I pick? Based on every article I’ve read, it should either be filling or not filling; I haven’t been able to find any other examples of Gimp behaving this way.
Yes, and we can't reproduce the problem either. I can see a way to have you result but this would be using separate selection plus bucket-full selection: if the color-selection step has "feather edges" enabled, then the selection would be partial over the dots and this would tint them.
Espermaschine in comment #11 reproduced the problem, so it’s not just me…? I wouldn’t even know how to do the double-selection process you described, and that’s not what I did here… and the dots aren't just partially covered, they are totally covered, and every other time I’ve seen this happen, it has been 100% of the image that has been tinted. Do you have any idea what Rich was suggesting that I use instead of bucket fill to circumvent this problem?
