| Filter Animation bleeds at edges (flames) |

I imported 30+ PNG files of a fireball output from the fun TimelineFX tool.
I did the import as layers option.
I've tried with and without filter animation blending.
When I do filter animation playback, the edges of the animation coming from the separate fireball layers which have alpha transparency...
bleed solid orange all around the circumference.
This seems very strange. I did the "replace" option for each image/layer in the playback and it still does it.
My expectation for the animation is that the tiny particles at the edges would disappear layer to layer as it was being displayed, giving the effect of fluid fire particles.
Thoughts?
In the past I've taken sequences of images like that and animated like in JavaFX and it was smooth and accurate.
I would just use the GIF that can be output from TimelineFX but it is just a little bit slow with no way of adjusting.
So I wanted to create a GIF using Gimp.
I'm using 2.10.34

Hello
Is it possible to create a brush that can pick up 2 colors at a time, allowing a line in which the 2 colors appear separate or mixed in places, depending on the structure of the brush bristles - in fact, exactly as in oil painting?
Such a brush may already exist, but I'm not familiar with it.
Thank you for your advice
sincerely
Denis

| Corners, How do I sew in Gimp? |

Googling my question hasn't given me the answer so I'm wording it differently here.
I want to take a rectangular border.
Transform one by 90 degrees.
Have them meet in the corner.
But then I want the border to look like a border made into a frame.
In other words for those who sew I want it to look like the preview image for this video,

But of course with my digital border.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thank you,
Angel

| Import pdf - how to ensure imported image's print size equals pdf-file's page size? |

Questions are:
- When importing into GIMP a pdf-file (for exporting as jpg or png or gif), how to ensure that the measurements of the print size of the imported image equal the measurements of the pdf-file's page size?
- When importing a pdf-file into in GIMP - how to ensure that displaying the imported image at a zoom-factor of 100% takes an area equal to the pdf-file's page size?
Long story:
I created a pdf-file with pdfLaTeX, packages TikZ/pgfplots/standalone.
A graph of a function, ticks of x- and y-axis are 1 cm apart from each other when displaying at a zoom factor of 100%.
According to document properties in Adobe Reader 9 and in KDE Okular 1.3.2, page size is 12,495 cm x 12,343 cm.
I.e., width of the pdf's page is 12,495 cm and height of the pdf's page is 12,343 cm.
When viewing the pdf-file at a zoom factor of 100% in Adobe Reader 9 or in KDE Okular 1.3.2, then the area on the screen taken for displaying the pdf's page in fact is 12,495 cm x 12,343 cm. (I used a caliper for measuring the area on the screen. ;-) ). Resolution of my monitor is 94 dpi both in horizontal and in vertical direction.
Edit/Preferences/Interface/Display in GIMP 2.10.8 also says that the monitor resolution detected automatically is 94 dpi.
When importing the pdf-file into GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program, 2.10.8), I am asked to give a resolution in pixel/inch.
I expect the following behavior in GIMP:
- In any case the print size after importing should be as close to the pdf's page size as possible, 12,495 cm x 12,343 cm.
- The measurements of the area on the screen taken by the image displayed at a zoom factor of 100% should in any case also be as close to the pdf's page size as possible, 12,495 cm x 12,343 cm.
Thus the imported image's size in pixels should be calculated so that
[imported image's width in pixels]/[resolution given in pixel/inch]*2.54cm/inch = [width of pdf's page in cm]
<-> [imported image's width in pixels] = [width of pdf's page in cm] * [resolution given in pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm
and
[imported image's height in pixels]/[resolution given in pixel/inch]*2.54cm/inch = [height of pdf's page in cm]
<-> [imported image's height in pixels] = [height of pdf's page in cm] * [resolution given in pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm .
E.g., when choosing resolution 100 dpi x 100 dpi, then with the pdf-file in question I expect
[imported image's width in pixels] = 12,495 cm * [100 pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm = 492 pixel and
[imported image's height in pixels] = 12,443 cm * [100 pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm = 489 pixel.
E.g., when choosing monitor's resolution, 94 dpi x 94 dpi, then with the pdf-file in question I expect
[imported image's width in pixels] = 12,495 cm * [94 pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm = 462 pixel and
[imported image's height in pixels] = 12,443 cm * [94 in pixel/inch] * inch/2.54cm = 460 pixel.
But not only the size in pixels varies, but also the print size and the area used for displaying on screen at a zoom-factor of 100% both deviate from the pdf-file's page-size and vary depending on what resolution in pixel/inch you give.
E.g., when at the time of importing the pdf-file I chose resolution 100 dpi x 100 dpi, then according to Image - Image properties
size in pixels is 490 x 486 pixels and
print size is 12,45 cm x 12,3 4cm.
Displaying with a zoom-factor of 100% takes an area on the screen of size 13,24 cm x 13,21 cm.
Notice that height and width of the imported image in pixels differs from what I expect.
Notice the difference between the print size of the imported image and the pdf's page size.
Notice the difference between the print size of the imported image and the area taken for displaying on screen at a zoom factor of 100%.
E.g., when at the time of importing the pdf-file I chose the monitor's resolution, 94 dpi x 94 dpi, then according to Image - Image properties
size in pixels is 461 x 456 pixels and
print size is 12,46 cm x 12,32 cm.
Displaying with a zoom-factor of 100% takes an area on the screen of size 12,64 cm x 12,36 cm.
Notice that height and width of the imported image in pixels differs from what I expect.
Seems, when giving the monitor's resolution for the pixels/inch-resolution, then both the print size of the imported image and the area taken for displaying the imported image on screen at a zoom factor of 100% are very close to the pdf's page size.
The differences in print sizes with the imported images and the deviating of print sizes of imported images from the pdf's page size show that importing the pdf into GIMP goes along with stretching the image horizontally and vertically.
That stretching seems to depend on the resolution in pixel/inch specified at the time of importing the pdf-file into GIMP.
That stretching causes with the exported jpg distance of the ticks on the x- and y-axis of the graph of the function not being 1 cm any more.
Also, the print size of the imported image does not reflect the measurements of the area taken for displaying the imported image at a zoom-factor of 100%, although GIMP seems to have proper information about the monitor's resolution.
