I'm still using version 10 (I like it!), but I've been working on a file that's 8100x5400 and suddenly everything is frozen. I've worked on many files this size (and bigger) before with no problems. I can't save, delete, x out of windows, etc. Computer is fine otherwise. Any ideas?
Oddly, the marching ants from a previous selection are still active and the windows I have open within the program can minimize and maximize.
I found this on Reddit--is it safe to try?--
I don't know why it works, but killing "GNU Image Manipulation Program Plug-in" on taskmanager brought GIMP back to life. It showed an error message, about the "failed" plugin and I was able to save my file.
Not sure what I just did but accidentally I closed the program--now it works fine. But I lost several hours of work. is there any way to recover it?
I'm trying to make a custom livery for the LMU game. It requires 2 TGA files (customskin.tga and costumskin_region.tga).
My problem is that the parts of the car I coloured red in GIMP are shown in black in the game.
I already found out that I have to make some changes in the region file but can't find what I exactly have to do.
Hi! Im working with a book, and each chapter has a name, "Chapter 01, chapter 02...chapter 11" etc. But Gimp open dialog, when i sort by the folder name columns, sort it the 10,11,12, first, then 01, 02, etc
Any way to have a "normal" order. Iincluded an screenshot
Hi, this is the initial release of my python hexagonal grid plugin converted to the GIMP 3.0 API. The functionalities where also expanded, most notably with the sample sheet output, and a few bugs and calculations corrected.
By default, it creates an hexagonal grid, using a search algorithm for optimal rasterization. It can also output a sheet with multiple hexagonal grid samples, selected by quality, in a nice tabular format.
Requirements:
GIMP 3.0 (and probably later)
Intallation:
Extract the .zip file and place the pl_hexgrid folder inside your user profile's Plug-ins folder.
You can find the plugin at Filters > Render > Pattern
Excerpt from the readme:
Quote:This GIMP plugin aims to draw regular hexagonal grids that fit the pixel grid as perfectly as possible, avoiding some common artefact like blurred vertical or horizontal lines. This optimisation also ensures that each hexagon is exactly the same and symmetrical.
As no perfect fit exists between a square grid (pixels) and an hexagonal one, hexagons' proportions are slightly stretched. The amount of deformation depends on their size. The working size factor of the plugin is the apothem, i.e. the distance between the center and the middle of a face. The user interface presents a more understandable "width" parameter, a measure of the distance between two faces.
Hope it is useful for someone. The included help is very basic and a bit technical for now, don't hesitate if you have some questions.
But one thing isn't optimal for me in Batch-Mode: all the picture that were processed get the name "Crop..." with a number.
It would be more useful to have (also) the original file name in the output name.
In Batchmode there already exists the variable "filename", but when I put it in in the line with the output
1. I edit a jpg image from my camera, add a layer or two and complete other edits, then export as another jpg.
2. When I open the jpg, either to preview it in windows or load it into Gimp, it takes noticably longer to load and render.
3. The image initally shows but is out of focus, then seems to load the second layer and appear sharp.
i have wide feet, the only wide that fits me is new balance extra wide. but recently, i have noticed new balance extra wide doesn't fit me. what i am trying to figure out is if they made their shoes more narrow, or if i have some kind of a medical condition causing my feet to get bigger. in the picture below, I am trying to compare the width of the new shoes with the old ones. but i dont know how to do it in gimp. i know the measure tool exists, but i dont know how to point it in the right spot, and i dont know if i am drawing a straight line.
