How do I make Tools Options show up in GIMP 2.8?

By David Jones

I'm using GIMP 2.8.

How do I make Tools Options window show up? E.g. I select a Flood Fill tool, and I would like to change Threshold.

In menu go to :

Windows>Dockable Dialogs> Click on Tool Options

You can select any other needed window in Dockable Dialogs.

If you double-click on an icon in the Toolbox (e.g. Flood Fill), the Tool Options dialog will appear. This is much faster than using the menus.

ScreengrabNickolai I think I've figured it out. See attached screengrab: there are three little dots at bottom of tool-options box. Drag the downwards to reveal rest of contents. On Gimp 2.10 on Windows using a 32" 4k monitor, and gimp is almost unuseable due to tiny icons.
