Brightness/Contrast to Selected Area Only

Dear Gimp Users List:

I would like to apply Brightness/Contrast adjustments to only a selected area. It seems the adjustments are global despite having something selected. Is there a way to do this?

Apologies Michael, I replied to the wrong message originally.

Have you tried the Dodge/Burn tool? Shift-D on a Mac (maybe PC too)

I'm using vers 2-10-12 on a 2019 Mac.

Good Luck Brad

Brightness/Contrast applies only to the selected pixels. Your problem could be elsewhere. How do you produce the selection? How so you check that the selection is still there?

Remember that on 2.10, you often have to "commit" the selection (strike [enter] or double-click).
