  JPG default export quality
Posted by: Ritergeek - 11-29-2023, 10:41 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Is there a way to set the default value for jpg exports to 100%? Right now it's 90% and I always save at 100%. I've looked through the export settings in Preferences and see only Export File Type but nothing about quality.

  Saving Templates
Posted by: zeuspaul - 11-29-2023, 10:39 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

I must have known how to do this because I have a bunch of them.  I assumed they were saved when I exited Gimp.  But now when I make a new template or modify one the new/changed template does not come back after exiting Gimp and restarting the program.

How do I save templates in Gimp?

  Enlarged Buttons within Sub Windows
Posted by: CptJazz - 11-29-2023, 07:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello! Is there a way to increase the size of the buttons and sliders (see red circles on attached photo) for the sub windows for editing color properties? (the attached photo shows the window when you select Colors > Levels)

I've already adjusted the font size on the gtkrc file for the dark theme to make the text viewable on my 3480 x 2160 monitor. Looking through the settings in the gtkrc, I can't tell if I'm missing the line of code that adjusts that, or if I need to achieve this a different way.

Thanks!

Question What is the gimp equivalent to ctrl-0? (make canvas fill working area)
Posted by: zangalt - 11-28-2023, 01:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Title, pretty much.  I know I can do ctrl plus scroll wheel, but I'd like to know if there's a way to jump right to having the canvas fill as much of the wroking space as possible like how ctrl-0 does in photoshop. I'm using 2.10 by the way. I apologize in advance if this is in the wrong part of the forum. New here.

  Photo of person to fine, detailed line drawing
Posted by: Xogroroth - 11-28-2023, 06:59 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Greetings all:

Been looking for answer on various sites, but all the results turn out to be very thick lined, and undetailed.
Tried to figure out a way to get far thinner lines, while at the same time, add far more detail.
This is what I generally get:
[Image: hq720.jpg?sqp=-oaymwEhCK4FEIIDSFryq4qpAx...B_AAfarriQ]

but this is what I am looking for at the bare minimum:
[Image: 6a64e7a18561b6d1660beea1fb89554e2d812a19_2000x2000.webp]

Preferably even more detailed, with all the hair strains showing.

Nowhere did I find a good tutorial for this, although, I read, there is an automation for this, a plugin, but the author did not speak of how it was called.

If anyone can help me out, please?

Thank you.
Xog.

  Beginner -> tablet & Gimp 2.10
Posted by: Nyutator - 11-27-2023, 11:13 PM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (3)

Hi everyone

I just bought a tablet and wanted to try it. Gimp seemed to be a good option for it.
I successfully installed my XP PEN start 03 but I didn't succeed in having brush options that match with the drawing I get with a real pen ... not even close.

Do you have any suggestion. Please, keep in mind that I'm a real beginner.

Thank you for your time

EDIT: I have maybe found what I was looking for and it could be the calligraphy tool.

  Gimp 2.10.36 to Gimp 2.10.34
Posted by: zeuspaul - 11-26-2023, 10:29 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (9)

Can I revert back to 2.10.34 from 2.10.36?  I have the 2.10.34 exe set up file.  Can I just reinstall 2.10.34?

The reason is I am getting a Gimp crash when I make a rectangular selection one pixel wide and a bunch long.  Then I copy then paste then to new layer.  It crashes when I select to new layer.

Maybe it is faking it.

Photographic proof? Is that still possible?
