            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR

I got some ideas concerning the selection tool for editing photos.

First: "Greying out" the regions that are not selected is a cool feature but it
is confusing that this effect is only visible if the selection is not being
resized. The main problem I see here is that on mainly black images you cannot
really see the selection you made until you stop resizing it. And once you
start resizing you have to guess again. So please always show the grey areas.

Second: Since a few versions Gimp supports resizing the selection not only in
the corners but also on the sides. This is a very cool feature which I'd really
like to have in digikam, too.
