    If you add the Error Console to one of your docks most of the warnings will appear there. This can make it easier to spot any problems.

  • Check the Tool Options and make sure that all settings there have expected values, or else try to reset to default values.

  • Check which Image Mode your image is using. Some operations have limitations when using Indexed mode.

  • Check if a selection is active and if needed remove the selection.

  • Check the Layer Dialog and make sure the correct layer is active, that the opacity, blending mode and layer attributes are set as expected.
