Can I use the move tool to move the image without moving the layer? - blogsofwardotme - 08-07-2025

Hi there, I regularly update Gimp now 3.0.4, but it still drives me crazy the image moving all over the place when I pull a selection string or just scrolling the image around with my trackpad.  Do mac user find it more stable downloaded from macports? in the meantime I tried to use the move tool to move the image but it moves the layer too. Thank you

I don't know what you do to cause this, but among the layer locks there is Move lock if that can help.
