Alternative methods are fine, I can supply several, but make sure you go back and read the post answering the question, which is manipulating gfig.
If you want suggestions give the OS you use most and ask.
Thank you to everyone for all the helpful suggestions and rich2005 for the great video snippets.
I am using the gfig plugin on the latest MacOS and current GIMP.
I use Windows and MacOS both, but maybe Windows has the edge since I am not doing Xcode stuff much these days.
I tried this on my Windows 10 (latest) laptop as well.
I paid a bit more attention this time.
The Gfig plugin worked as expected. I could create individual stars, resize, move, etc..
Then, I started to mess with the foreground and fill colors.
At this point, it exhibited the same behavior as previously on the Mac.
At one point the plugin crashed.
Giving it more thought, this same pattern may have happened on the Mac too.
Except the crash part.
I used GIMP's "reset all filters" option, but the gfig plugin remained in the previous state.
I'll proceed to trying the alternative methods suggested.
Thanks again to all that responded and for your help.
