currently planning to create a dotted map of the world - any ideas here
#30
dear friends

how  how can i be able to get the black dot!?

well - i am trying to figure it out.



   

well  - do i need to work with two layers !?!



the guy here - in this vid - he works with two layers..

How to Create Dot Patterns with GIMP (3 Methods) 
s://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TTLVlR7KHA

hmm - at the moment i stuck...

i just played around ..


   

well - here i did not make use of two layers
but i managed to get the circle "marked".... Smile



guess that i have to follow the steps that patrice suggested



Export that image as a .png and put it in your Directory/Folder patterns which should be on Linux at /home/{your-name}/.config/GIMP/2.10/patterns


Quote:On the note side: The combination of the Select all and the Click with the ellipse tool will make an "auto-circle" right in the center of the image, thus no need for guide or shortcut keyboard to draw from center, Although drag+shortcut is a better method as you have more controls, and you will need to learn that method in the future.
But and because you said you are a very beginner, thus for today I tried to remove drag + shortcut keyboard "equation" to make it as simple as possible without actions or very limited with minimum actions on the canvas itself.

i will try to do so....



   

hopefully i am able to use the patterns now - for my little map project

i now follow your advices  rick, patrice and ofnuts

have a great day - i am so happy to be part of this great forum




update .i try to follow this instruction here  ..https://imgur.com/FpEVWdO

i am not able to see the pattern ... why is this so?
