Unable to close a path on Mac OS - fricciardi - 02-08-2021

thanks for any help, I have been at this for days looking for an answer.

I cant close a path on Mac OS Gimp 2.10. COMMAND click just brings up the right click menu.  

How do you close a path so you can stroke it on Mac OS?

TIA

Can you click the 'Edit' radio button in the paths tool options ? That should allow you to close the path. (unless it is yet another of the bigsur bugs)

Thanks for taking the time to assist.

No, clicking Edit still leaves me in the same boat.  If I set the toggle to "edit" and hold Command, any click is a right click which brings up the context menu. There is no way to close the path

That is a shame. Pulled out an old macos virtual machine + an old Gimp 2.10

FWIW - see https://i.imgur.com/AdWRTWt.mp4 about 30 second demo Wink note no key press involved just the radio button.

So it could be the macOS or the version of Gimp or something else. Not many Mac users here, I use linux and only fire up that VM for problems such as yours.

If it is Gimp 2.10.22 you can report it as a bug https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues
