  Why don’t my custom palettes persist?
Posted by: tomory - 06-06-2023, 07:05 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hi, everyone,

I created a custom palette for a design I’m creating but when I quit and reopen The Gimp, it’s not in the list. This has happened twice in a row now. Do I need to do something special to make Gimp save my custom palette?

It’s not a huge deal because my design has only five colors in it. Still, it’s inconvenient to have to keep recreating it.

(I’m using Gimp 2.10.34 revision 1 on Mac OS Ventura.)

Thanks.

  How can I overwrite .blp files in GIMP?
Posted by: jpcmg5t - 06-02-2023, 07:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello, I like to play this game called Speedy Eggbert.

I wanted to mod this game using GIMP, but the files are all in .blp format instead of .png. GIMP allows me to open the files and edit them, but it doesn't let me overwrite them. I have another program called XNView which allows me to overwrite the files. but I much prefer using GIMP than XNView as I'm familiar, know how to use all the editing tools and find it easy. And copying the files from GIMP to XNview is too time consuming.

So if XNView can overwite .blp files, then why can't GIMP do it? And is there an extension that can allow me to do this?

  Part of image cut off
Posted by: sl60 - 06-02-2023, 01:24 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I was just working on a large image (site plan ), saved it, and when I opened it again Gimp had cut off the left side of the image and doubled a portion of the right side. Is there any way to restore this? I can't show it because of copyright issues.

The layers panel is there but as I work on various layers the layers are not displaying in the panel--itt just show the base layer and the copy of it that I made.
How to fix?

  Editing photos
Posted by: gazza - 05-31-2023, 08:38 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (12)

Hi
I have been taking quite a few landscape photos recently and editing them in GIMP. When the photos are taken the hills or mountains in the background just appear dark outlines. I understand the naked eye would just see them as dark outlines depending on how far away they are. I believe in Lightroom and Photoshop, an adjustment brush can be used to brush over those items to lighten the dark contrast and make the colours of those hills etc more visible.  What would be the best method in GIMP. I am assuming that maybe I have to select the areas and adjust the contrast and brightness. I have tried that but the results are not wonderful
Any help appreciated
Gary

  Editing Problem
Posted by: jeffarda06 - 05-31-2023, 02:24 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello,

I've created an A2 size image from the template provided by Gimp.
I've rotated 90° this image to have a "Landscape" type image.
Then I've added some text.
Unfortunately, this one was added upside down and I also had to rotate it 90° to put it in the direction of the image.
Then, every time I click on this text (to add letters or increase the font size), I get the message:
"Confirm Editing Text... The layer you selected is a text layer but it has been modified using other tools. Editing the layer with the text tool will remove these changes".
When I press the "Edit" button at the bottom of this window, the text rotates automatically by -90°!

It's very painful.
Why such a behavior?
Is there anything to do?

Thanks
