Lets say I'm designing a board game cards. I have a kind of master layer group, where I have designed and hid all layer groups, needed for certain card types.
We have coins and workers. There may be certain amount of coins (so I have a layer for each occurrence , like 1, 2, 3 & 4 coins). I'm going to create a number of duplicates of that master layer as a separate cards and align them in a grid. Then I'll just turn visibility on for the required coin layer. It will create a coin cards set (1coin, 1 coin, 2 coins, 3 coins, 4 coins on the same image to be printed).
And here I want to make some changes to coin layer, lets say change margin between coins, resize or even replace the coin image (lets assume that image itself is a child layer). And I want the to be made to master layer and propagated to all duplicates, created from that layer.
Is there any way to do this in gimp?
Maybe someone knows a better tool supporting such functionality. I'll appreciate any help.
After a MS windows 10 update, my MS Office XP no longer works (on startup, the acces the screen appears and then disappears) . I often make backups, after installing my last backup, I could start Office XP again and could export the data. I used the access database since 1996 and I want to import the data in LibreOffice Base. As I started with gimp a few years ago and first did'n like it (now, after learning it, I do like it). Using LibreOffice, I found it very basic and did'n like it : it's like I was in the boiler room. After reading several sollutions and tested them out, I could import my data in Libreoffice Base (after export access---> dbase4). A few lines were not imported, but I inserted them by hand. Now I had to learn how to use tabels / query's / forms and rapports. Hard to do when be microsoft brainwashed, but I persevered. After a few solutions that ended in the dust bin, I felt my brain learned to think the Libreoffice way.

Hi all, I'm looking to put a "scale" on an image. It's actually a map that I'm cropping a region from. So, I need to be able to draw a straight line on the full size original, between two known points, and divide that into a specific number of subdivisions (e.g. miles, but more likely minutes of lat/long in my situation).
Ideally, the result would put "tick marks", or "notches" along the line, in the manner of a graph scale, but as long as the points are identifiable I could do that by hand.
After all that, I would then crop the image, leaving some part of the line in the crop to act as the new scale.
which I think I could make work, but I suspect it's unnecessarily complex, since the target of "equal division" is an arbitrary path. I'm hoping there's a better/simpler/faster approach for the straight line situation?
I'm using Gimp for the first time.
I would like to change the size and the resolution of my image.
So I open the image, I select 'image scale and size' . there I can choose the width, the height and the resolution(72ppi), which is for me the quality of the jpeg, then I clic on 'scalling' .
After that I clic on 'export under' then 'export' and there a new window propose me to choice a quality between 0 to 100.
What is the différence between the resolution (72ppi for the web) and the quality 0 to 100 ?
I'm using my wacom bamboo tablet, and I can't get the paintbrush tool to respond to the pen's pressure.
I recall on my old computer, I had to actually open GIMP with the pen or else it wouldn't recognize the pen apart from the mouse, for some reason. But I tried that here and it didn't make a difference.
I tested with microsoft whiteboard and it is responding to the pressure in my pen, but GIMP is not.
Hi there,
I made this script that translates every text layer of the layer group selected, or the text layer selected.
As you can see at lines 50 to 54, I had to skip the text layers witches text are None because it generated an error and interrupted the script. But I don't understand why some of my text layers return the None value when I ask them their text. All those text layers have a text. Any clue anyone ?
Code:
# lines 50 to 54
# Vérifier si le texte n'est pas de type NoneType
if text is not None:
# Traduire le texte en utilisant la bibliothèque translate
translated_text = translator.translate(text)
else:
translated_text = "ERREUR TEXTE NON TRADUIT\n{}".format(text)
Another question I have is about the libraries I had to include. I added them directly next to the .py that needed them and it works. But I guess it is not the elegant way of doing so. If I do another script needing the same libraries, I would have to include them once more. Is there a way to include libraries in the gimp specific python installation ?
the dependencies are as followed :
traducion.py (my script) needs translate
translate.py needs providers
providers/mymemory_translated.py needs requests
the main script is :
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
from gimpfu import *
from translate import Translator
# Recuperation du groupe de calques selectionne
group = pdb.gimp_image_get_active_layer(image)

group_text = layer
break
if group_text is None:
# Créer un groupe de calques nommé "text-fr" s'il n'existe pas
group_text = pdb.gimp_layer_group_new(image)
pdb.gimp_item_set_name(group_text, "text-fr")

Hi all I'm wanting to blend 2 layers together for a heightmap (where the red lines I have drawn)
Also is there a way to get the magic wand to select an area kind of like where the red lines area If I were the merge the 2 layers together rather than draw it manually with the free select tool? thanks
