## 6. The “Image” Menu

### 6.1. Overview

In this section, you will find help for commands in the Image menu, which includes commands that use or affect the entire image in some way, not just the active layer or a specific part of the image.

| Note
Besides the commands described here, you may also find other entries in the menu. They are not part of GIMP itself, but have been added by third-party plug-ins. You can find information about the functionality of a plug-in by referring to its documentation.
