I am trying to create a rectangle shape with rounded corners that I can freely move around, align, fill, etc. I tried using the rectangle select tool and add a stroke, then copy that and paste as new layer, but the layer's stroke were cropped/semi-transparent on the right side and on the bottom.
If I try to create a rounded rectangle selection, and paste it as a layer, GIMP does not seem to want to keep the rounded corners.
How can I solve this problem?
1Thank you. Just one note. This works for me only when I select 'White' in the layer mask options dialog. – raacer – 2014-06-20T22:52:01.417
Excellent explanation, but I, too, have found that the layer mask should be white. This makes the 'additional little white square' not black, too. :-) I've edited the answer, to save people having to redo it, as I did. This is in Gimp 2.8.10 – Michael Scheper – 2015-10-30T00:20:54.767
