Hi,

For the last two days I've gone round in circles using both Gimp & Irfanview in an attempt to modify violin music scores.

   

I'm 75 and just learning to play my violins in my small music studio; the sheet music scores are placed on a bench music stand but my eyesight isn't up to reading them whilst playing a violin hence I want to modify by deleting sections whilst enlarging the sections remaining to fit an A4 page when printed.

   

I can delete the unwanted sections as seen but then I get stuck wasting no end of time trying to enlarge the remaining sections to 8" x 1.75" and stacking them to fill the new spaces. I can enlarge each but don't know how to move them as wanted. I'm also having problems printing the 8 x 1.75 using my HP Laserjet P1102W mono printer. I want to print in Portrait then I can place three pages onto the stand meaning dividing each line but I could also print in landscape. I'd prefer to use Gimp.

   

My studio in June; I've now got four violins and a Balalaika plus lots of recording gear; all I need now is to sort out the music scores to suit me then I can concentrate on learning to read music and play my violins.

Any help will be most welcome.

Kind regards, Colin.

GIMP 2.10.32 on macOS High Sierra, Template window contains nothing, it is empty. What can I do? Thank you.

Hi.
First sorry if my word choise is confusing, Im an amateur so I might not understand some term.
Im trying to edit game asset. How do I make a cut on texture to precisely match the alpha channel shape? Using fuzzy tool can be done but it only make a solid cut, some semi transparent will made into solid cut.
In layman's term, how do I make alpha channel as a cast and use it to cut a flat texture so that it will have the exact same transparency?



Edit: Some illutration what Im trying to do.

There is a gif file, when I input it in GIMP and output it as another gif, it is always obviously larger than the input gif. Why? I tried some methods to optimize it.

Sorry I am not able to add an attachment.

Hi!

I'm new to the forum and scripting, and have little GIMP experience.

I am working on my first python-fu script, which opens jpg files, changes them, and saves to new jpg files.

How one would load a jpg file while preserving its original 'sRGB' color space? When I open the file through the GUI, GIMP asks me if I want to keep it or convert to 'GIMP built-in sRGB'. However, when my script loads the file with pdb.gimp_file_load(), It just converts it automatically.

I'm running GIMP 2.10 on Debian.

Thanks a lot!

Is there a way to save a file with pdb.file_jpeg_save(), while overwriting the 'software' exif tag?

Even though I set the tag with pdb.gimp_image_set_metadata(), the resulting file has 'GIMP 2.10.32' as its value.

Thanks a lot!

Hi

I'm sorry for my bad English. I am really incompetent in advance Gimp using.

I would like to modify the "down right corner" symbol of 'Note_Cymbal_Yellow_Sizzle.png' in order to look like the 'Note_Cymbal_Miss_Sizzle.png' symbol but I don't know how to do that. I would copy/paste the "down right corner" symbol in the other file to obtain the 3 other corners.

I imagine it's a basic manipulation for an expert.

Could someone do that for me please ?

No idea if this has been mentioned before or not. Could you put all the solved questions under another topic so people can look there first - like a FAQ or something?

I'm sure that due to an upgrade from GTK2 to GTK3, the default responses (i.e., the active button) when a pop-up dialog displays changed between GIMP 2.8 and 2.10.  Even after a few years, these changes still bother me.  Is there any way, external to the GIMP code itself, that the default responses for a given dialog can be set?  I'm hoping that there is some kind of external file where this might be set.  I'm just not familiar enough with the GTK internals to know if this is possible or not.

Thanks for any insights.
