You can, it is very unintuitive though. You draw the shape using the eilpse tool and set a border for the selection.
It's not hard, but there is really no way to figure this out without ever looking for a tutorial.
It's absolutely stupid design and more difficult than it needs to be.
I'll say it - Photoshop is infinitely more intuitive than gimp for the average person. Sure, if you are fucking determined, I'm sure you can figure it out eventually. You can even make it work. But if you say it is easier than Photoshop, you are wrong.
I love FOSS stuff but way too many people are delusional about the pros and cons of it. There are absolutely cons.
I stand with op.
I don't believe that you can even figure out half of the things yourself if you are determined. There is no way you can use it without looking up tutorials for even basic things.
I fully agree in case my precious comment wasn't clear. It is a mess!
All this time I was using the ellipse tool, filling it, then shrinking my selection and deleting.
Ah well, I learned Inkscape recently and it's a better tool for stuff like that anyway.
