[Gimp-user] Redo paints after creating a new layer

[Johan Vromans]

Hi,

When on vacation I often do this:

- import an image of a map (download, digital photo)
- enhance it until satisfactory
- create a new layer
- place a series of dots denoting a route

I often discover after placing a whole lot of dots that I forgot to
create the new layer first. Using undo, I go back to the pristine
state. I can then redo the history to get the dots back. However, I
cannot redo the paints anymore after creating a layer.

Is there a way to accomplish this?
