i recently had to reinstall linux mint, and upon reinstalling GIMP 2.99, i discover that i can't use these keyboard? shortcuts anymore
and i can't assign them either, because the scroll wheel doesn't count as a key
what do i do to get those back?

the shortcuts in question being:
- ctrl + alt + scroll wheel: change brush size
- alt + scroll wheel: change brush opacity

Hello. Still another newbie question. Why this script don't work? (GIMP 2.99 but this is so basic stuff that this should don't matter)

EDIT: I checked documentations for hours and also mined examples shipped with GIMP but there are no examples that use gimp-paintbrush-default and oddly I don't found anything in documentation about creation of scripts that draw something on existing images despite this kind of scripts seems to be most common)

EDIT: It should draw line from cornet to pixel at x=100 y=100 using current brush.

I've been using GIMP for years and had a new hard drive installed, so I just had to download GIMP again.  Now, when I select anything to rotate it, the outline shows as if it's rotating as I change the angles, but the selection does not rotate with it, only the selection box outline rotates, then once I click OK it processes but nothing selected ever rotates.  The selection box does rotate, but nothing that was selected does.   I've even opened a new image with a blank canvas, with only a single layer, and drawn on it, selected it, and same thing, it shows it should be rotating but it doesn't.  I've 'de-selected all' as well in case somehow it selected something, but still the same issue.  Is there something I'm missing here?  Thank you!

Dear all,

I would like to create one picture from several pictures of the same object that I took from a microscop.
I work on microscopic elements and I can't take juste one picture of the whole blade so I decided to take several pictures of the same blade. In each picture there is at least one element that still the same from a picture to another because I want to make sure I always have a reference point (or landmark).
Do you know if in GIMP there an automatic way to recreate the blade from all this pictures? Or do I have to take them one by one and reassemble them manually?

I ma sorry if I am not clear...Please tell me if you need precisions or if you don't understand my question.

Thank you for your answer!
Have a great day!

What steps do I take to fill the doughnut solid ?  When I select the edge color and bucket fill inside all of the black inside and outside gets filled in.  How do I get the fill to stop where where there is a line?  Darryl

Hey there!

I just don't have the Vocabulary to do a proper google search since I don't know how this process is called.

Basically:

Here (on the left) is the briefcase that they used in the movie Pulp Fiction to make it shine when the character Vincent opens it.

I want to remove the area with the lightbulb & its components and only leave the authentic briefcase.

     

So, I cut out the area with the lightbulb but now how do I "smear" the nearby colors to make the briefcase look naturally empty?

I think that splitting the coloring-in in multiple 'sectors' would make sense - one tone for the 'bottom' of the base, one for the 'right side' of the case and the last for the 'backside'.

In the end I want to use this 500x500 px image in a 1000x1000 4 panel meme that I am making, as I want to place an object 'inside' (over) the brief case. So it doesn't need to look perfect, only decent enough for a person looking at said image for about 3-5 seconds to not notice that the background coloring looks totally whack.

Any help is appreciated! I plan to check back here in a day or two.

Thank you,

Generate Practice Images with Pixlr AI
 
Pixlr AI  presents a useful way to generate images for photo editing practice or tutorials.
Here, this will be for a tutorial on combining images with Wavelet Decompose.
This can be accomplished by:
 
1.     Use Pixlr AI to create  an image, for this example “brick tower with trees under stormy skies”, to use for a foreground image.
2.     Search Wikimedia Commons for suitable background image. The phrase here was “mountain landscape”.  This could also be done with Pixlr AI, but I preferred the display of options provided by Wikimedia Commons.
3.     Apply Filters Enhance Wavelet Decompose to the foreground image.
4.     Place the background image as a layer above the first scale with Grain Merge layer mode.
5.     Free Select any area or areas in the foreground image that should not be blended with the background image.
6.     Fill or paint these areas in the background image with 50% Gray.
7.     Adjust the opacity of the background layer.
The combined images should now present.

Let's say you have a photo of a fence and you want to put a number of photos of people behind it--but you want each person behind the other people. What would be the easiest and simplest way to go about it?

1. i'm pretty sure this is a recent change, too:
when i'm checking various layers, the yellow-black striped outline around the layers doesn't update to reflect the one i've selected until i do something to that layer, such as click on the canvas with any tool
is this a bug? it's a downgrade - not being able to tell if you successfully switched to the layer you wanted so it certainly seems like a bug


2. this next one i think was an old change, but i can't move the viewport while holding a selection box handle anymore. why? this was so useful to get precise measurements across large distances in gimp 2.10


3. also, fonts are partially busted in the flatpak version. i cannot make text bold or italic, the toggle button is there and i can turn it on and off but it doesn't do anything
