Copy part of one layer to another layer in GIMP
#1
How can I copy a part of one layer to another layer in GIMP?

I want to make an object in an image disappear in GIMP by copying a part of another image to this image. I have once successfully applied a workflow explained in an online instruction which says to (1) open both images as layers in GIMP, (2) add a white layer mask (full opacity) to the upper layer and (3) to use a tool - I think it was the Clone Tool - to copy a part of the lower layer to the upper layer. Unfortunately, it does not work the way I remember it and I find neither this instruction again nor another manual which would explain it.

My images contain many details which are sometimes hidden by covering objects. That's why I'm looking for a solution different from cloning a part of one image to another location of the same image.
