I'm learning the basics of using GIMP. I'm making a simple "color palette" for a design project.
I want to draw several rectangles, each as their own layer, and have that entire layer be the size of the rectangle.
When I click "New Layer" and draw the selection, I can color the selection, but the layer still has the size of the background layer (instead of the small rectangle, like I want).
I can manually resize the layer, but I'd assume there's a better way size the entire layer to the rectangle I want.
How do you do this?
