  Gimp 2.8.22 How do I crop to a Free Selection?
Posted by: Songbird - 05-29-2022, 03:29 AM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (10)

After carefully outlining this pencil using the Free Select tool I went to Image and clicked on Crop to Selection, and it didn't. Instead it gave me a rectangular crop that hugged the pencil. Actually, all I really need is the pencil on a white background, and I'd like to draw a black line around the edge of the pencil. Can someone help me do this?

(I can't seem to attach a screen shot of what I'm talking about.... Do I need special permission from an admin?)

Question Where is Gimp 2.10.30 hiding in WIN 10?
Posted by: Sweetlunacy - 05-28-2022, 09:53 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

The main GIMP 2.10.30 folder IS NOT in my C: Drive/Program files - or- Program files (x86). 

I downloaded from Gimp org, opened the zip file, ran the setup.exe and it works great but the folder is not coming up in any search.  I have view set for all hidden files.

Does anyone know where it could be on WIN 10 or if I'm overlooking something obvious?

  Alignment and distribution doesn't work.
Posted by: SF01 - 05-28-2022, 03:06 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

[Image: V7HBEvv.png]
As you can see this is what horizontal and vertical distribution does.
Instead of this:
[Image: Step05.png]

It shoots the layers outside of the picture instead of keeping the mcontained inside and distributing them neatly, like PowerPoint can.
How to fix it to properly distribute elements instead of counting how many pixels od space I need and moving elements manually?

  linking a image with its mask
Posted by: reena - 05-26-2022, 10:34 AM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (12)

I have tried script for linking a image with its mask but its not working. I need it to be worked urgently. Kindly help.


Code:
(define  (script-fu-auto-mask-image Mask InImage OutImage)
 (let* (
     Image (car (file-tiff-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE InImage InImage)) ImgW (car (gimp-image-width Image)) ImgH (car (gimp-image-height Image))
     PrimeLayer (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer Image))
     (gimp-layer-add-alpha PrimeLayer))
     (gimp-layer-new Image ImgW ImgH RGB-IMAGE MaskLayer 0 LAYER-MODE-NORMAL)
     (gimp-file-load-layer RUN-NONINTERACTIVE Image Mask)
     (gimp-image-set-active-layer Image MaskLayer)
     (gimp-image-select-color mask CHANNEL-OP-ADD drawable (0 0 0))
     (gimp-image-set-active-layer Image PrimeLayer)
     ;(gimp-edit-clear drawable)
     (gimp-drawable-edit-clear drawable)
     (gimp-image-remove-layer Image MaskLayer)
     (file-png-save-defaults RUN-NONINTERACTIVE Image drawable OutImage OutImage)
   )
 (gimp-displays-flush)
 (gimp-quit TRUE)
)

I am trying to execute it through this command.
gimp -i -c -b '(script-fu-auto-mask-image  "Pictures/test/mask.png" "Pictures/test/DSC00805.tif" "test.png")' -b '(gimp-quit 0)

  How to change the color of an object in a photo
Posted by: MaxPixel - 05-25-2022, 04:01 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I'm new to Gimp and photo-editing. I took a photo, and there's an unpainted white panel that's distracting. Here's the photo: https://imgur.com/8xVe5Xv

Is there a way to add something to the panel?

Is there a way to change the color of the panel to black or grey?

Since the panel is a 3d object, it would not have uniform level of black or gray. Also, it would not be perfectly black since no real-life object is perfectly black.

  Filter to enhance the quality of image
Posted by: Stephen Liu - 05-24-2022, 06:11 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (81)

GIMP 2.10.18

The image (.png) attached here was scanned on Smartphone without scan software.  Then I ran "mogrify" (IM command) converting it to positive image.

Code:
$ mogrify -negate image.jpeg

and then I cropped the image running Screenshot on "Image Viewer".

Please advise what filter shall I run to enhance the image quality and to remove its green color.

Thanks

Regards

  How can I put an image behind an object in the background?
Posted by: gods10rules - 05-23-2022, 07:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I'm trying to figure out how to but the mermaid behind an object in the background image. I've tried watching YouTube videos, but can't really comprehend them, and they all seem like too much work for something that should be simple.

These two pics are separate layers, there should be and easier way to put an inserted picture, behind an object in the background

For example, I'm trying to put the mermaid behind the chair facing the wall, but a part of the tail is still covering the chair.
