  Batch conversion
Posted by: allo - 09-06-2022, 01:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I installed the BIMP plugin for batch conversion (I have 1500 files to convert!!), but I'm having trouble doing what I want to do.

I need three changes:
1) A change to the value curve with two points added to the curve:
  - Input 5 and Output 40
  - Input 220 and Output 235
2) Saturation increased to 1.200
3) Contrast increased to 10


It's easy to do the contrast change, as that is quite easy to access through the BIMP plugin, but I have no idea how to do the other two changes! Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance!

  UFO landing on my camera!
Posted by: PixLab - 09-06-2022, 07:20 AM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (3)

Yeah... it's a click-bait Big Grin

More seriously, it's just a nice optical effect, those 2 islands are at 15 kilometers (8 nautical miles) away and today they looked like they were hovering the sea  Cool
I just wanted to share  Wink

   

   

   

Those 2 islands are called "Caubian Island" and are part of the Danajon Bank double-barrier reef one of the only 6 double-barrier reef in the world.

  Need to change the color scheme
Posted by: fixit7 - 09-05-2022, 09:17 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I can barely read the black text with a gray background that my Gimp is using.

How can I change that?

Thanks.

I can not figure how to attach an image?

Posted by: Merlinw - 09-05-2022, 07:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello everyone, simply I'm able to make lines as shown in the first photo but I want them like second photo. Is there any way to do them by using gimp features? I just want to create an image like in the second photo. How can I make that? is there any source/video that I can use? thanks in advance.

  Why is Gimp JPG so large?
Posted by: hsmokey - 09-04-2022, 04:41 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hi there, I'm trying to save a relatively large image in Gimp as a JPG and the size of the JPG is super big. For comparison, please see attached images showing file size for the Gimp JPG vs another JPG (not from Gimp) of the same dimensions, but about 32 MB smaller in size. Any ideas as to why the Gimp JPG version is so large and what can be done to decrease it? Thanks!

Not sure how to use them without making the photos leave the computer

  Linked Layers
Posted by: meetdilip - 09-03-2022, 11:25 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (3)

I read that Linked layers are just like Smart Objects in Photoshop. And it is supposed to be available in 3.0.

Does 2.99.12 have this feature? I am not sure where to find it or use it. Thanks.

Question Align side by side horizontally - No gaps. - SOLVED
Posted by: Krikor - 09-03-2022, 03:45 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello All,

I'm having the following difficulty:

I have several layers, they are all the same height but differ in width;
All are now aligned vertically;

I want to align them horizontally so that they are juxtaposed; as close together as possible without overlapping.

Ideally, the top layer should be on the left of all layers, followed by the layer below it on its right, and so on until the last layer is positioned at the other end of the horizontal (on the right).

With Inkscape there is the option:
"Move objects as little as possible so that their boundings boxes do not overlap."

I tried it with the Alignment Tool, but I never really understood this tool, and I didn't get that kind of alignment.

I thought the "Distribute targets evenly in the horizontal " option would do the job, but not even close.

How could I achieve this alignment optimally?

Thx!


Insisting I found a solution.

I had to sum the width of all the layers (I only used 6 layers in this experiment) and then increase the width of the canvas size to that value.
After that, "Distribute targets evenly in the horizontal" did the desired alignment.

But having to sum the width of a hundred layers is daunting.  Undecided


I was wrong, I noticed now that there was overlap between the layers after using the technique described above.  Blush


Solved!

The arrange-layers-0.2.py plugin does just what I need!

I know which is the widest layer among the approximately 100 layers.
I multiply the number of layers by that width and the result I use as the canvas width value.

So just apply the arrange-layers-0.2.py plugin and like magic everything lines up!!

Thx Ofnuts! (I'm pretty sure this is your plugin)

  Will background color print?
Posted by: hsmokey - 09-02-2022, 10:02 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi there,
We have a piece of art we're trying to edit and then save and print- We would like it to be a certain size but, as is, there is a gap between the size of the artwork and the 'background'. We would like to change the background color to match the border of the artwork, however, are unsure if the background color will actually save and print since it's not the same layer (or maybe not a layer at all?). Does anyone know if the background color will in fact save as displayed and print that way? Please see attached image for reference-

Thanks!
