-You're done, enjoy it! 😄
Heal tool selection plugin
I do not think it impacts that. Have you used GIMP3? Way better text handling.
it's not though. I just tried it and you can't highlight text and then scroll through fonts. you still need to know specifically what font you want or know all the fonts installed on your system. Unlike photoshop where you can highlight text and then scroll through the fonts you have installed which will change the highlighted text to whatever font on the fly. Gimp still to this day doesn't do that.
Not in the popup dialog, but in the text tool properties (on the left under the tools after you select the tool). You can scroll through the fonts there and your selected font will apply to the currently selected text.
My biggest pet peeve is having to scroll past 5000 versions of Noto font.
