  Gradient Stops Not Spread Out
Posted by: bfdc - 07-20-2023, 10:12 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Not too long ago (months) I could make a linear gradient of, say, seven colors spread across the width or height of a project simply by drawing a line from the top to the bottom of the layer. Since a week ago, that has changed: instead of the color stops (square thingies) being spread across most of the line I draw, all the squares are bunched together in one spot.

Is there a setting to fix that, or is that just how it is now?

In the attachments (if they are there), "A" shows the full screen as I attempt to make a gradient the height of the box.

"B" shows a close-up of the "color stops" all clumped together.

"C" is what it's supposed to do in the first place; however, this one was done by reducing the view to 5% so I could extend the line way off the page, thus spreading the clump of color stops across the layer.

I have, in that way, solved the problem, but I was wondering if anyone had a solution for the problem besides working around it.

[attachment=10104][attachment=10105][attachment=10106]


I should mention that Pic "B" is a close-up of the screen in Pic "A." And I should have enlarged the image in Pic "C" as it shows the full-sized graphic but at 5% view; even though the color stops look the same as in B, if it were enlarged you would be able to see the space between them as they covered the entire graphic.

  Smoothly Blended Edges for Image with Black Background
Posted by: GimpMonkey87 - 07-17-2023, 10:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi all,

I would like to blend the edges of my image so that it smoothly transitions to black. 
I need to use this image on a website that as a black background (#000000), and I want to avoid any visible borders around the image. 
   
What would be the easiest way to achieve this?

Thank you

  batch command experienced an execution error
Posted by: tristan - 07-17-2023, 07:28 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

This script - full disclosure, I made it with the help of AI as I'm not much of a coder  - is getting the following error:

batch command experienced an execution error:

Error: /: argument 1 must be: number

gimp: GEGL-WARNING: (../gegl/buffer/gegl-tile-handler-cache.c:1076):gegl_tile_cache_destroy: runtime check failed: (g_queue_is_empty (&cache_queue))
EEEEeEeek! 2 GeglBuffers leaked


I haven't been able to figure out how to fix it. I've tried the usual things--making sure GIMP is up to date, etc.

Thanks for any help offered.

Code:
#!/bin/bash

# Prompt for image selection
input_image=$(zenity --file-selection --title="Select an image or document" --file-filter="Image files | *.jpg *.jpeg *.png *.tiff *.webm *.pdf")

# Check if a file was selected or the dialog was canceled
if [ -z "$input_image" ]; then
 echo "No file selected. Exiting."
 exit 0
fi

# Extract the directory path from the input file
input_dir=$(dirname "$input_image")

# Extract the filename from the full path
filename=$(basename "$input_image")

# Construct the output image path in the same directory as the input file
output_image="${input_dir}/${filename}.jpg"

# Step 1: Scale the image to a width of 800px
# Step 2: Fit canvas to image size
# Step 3: Export to JPG with quality set to 80
gimp -i -b "(let* ((image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE \"$input_image\" \"$input_image\")))
                 (drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image))))
             (gimp-image-scale image 800 (/ (gimp-image-width image) (gimp-image-height image)))
             (gimp-image-resize-to-layers image)
             (file-jpeg-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable \"$output_image\" \"$output_image\" 0.8 0 1 1 \"\" \"\")
             (gimp-image-delete image))" -b "(gimp-quit 0)"

  .FIT file 'seized' by GIMP
Posted by: Careybird - 07-16-2023, 10:03 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Greetings, help shall surely be appreciated, please.

I have a Lezyne bike computer which logs ifles with a .FIT extension. Somehow, GIMP has 'captured' these files and created them to be opened by GIMP. Lezyne's o/s does not recognised them so I cannot load them onto the Lezyne site. I have un-installed GIMP hoping that might cure the problem but, alas, it hasnt.

Is someon able to help me, please? A priivate reply is welcomed, if allowed, @ careyskanda@gmail.com

Careybird

PS I tried to attach a copy of a file from Lezyne but apparently it has been forbidden

  How to propagate changes from source layer to its duplicates?
Posted by: challenger - 07-14-2023, 08:24 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

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.
