I have used GIMP many times to create animated online ads - sort my frames out, add the frame timing to the end of the layer name (x000ms), etc.
Never had an issue - when I come to do it today it seems it always uses the default timing provided in the save options even though I have specified the required timing!?!
Have gone back to a previous one, saved that and it works fine - I can't see anything I am doing different.
I did use the playback preview within GIMP and that showed it working fine - just after exporting it it fails.
I have three questions together really, I apologise in advance - I want to move a box, delete an item and dock a box to another.
I suffer from poor vision and the layout of GIMP was set up for me by a friend. Recently, the Tool options disappeared and in its place "Core pointer" appeared where it used to be (I never had that before). In this situation I was unable (for example) to change the ratio of the rectangular select tool (or even to enable/disable fixed ratios), change brush styles/sizes, fonts or anything that would normally be done from the Toolbox Options. I found on the forums here a recommendation to enable, then disable, single window mode to overcome this, it appears not to have only happened to me. While this has worked, it has put the Toolbox on the right hand side of the options (see the attachment), presumably because its place has been taken by "Core Pointer." In "Configure Input Devices" I am unable to deactivate Core Pointer. How can I move the Toolbox to the top, delete Core Pointer and dock the Tool Options to the bottom of the Toolbox? I want something like this, but with floating windows:
I decided against resetting everything to default because, as I remember, everything came up in black and white, which I simply cannot see. Please don't suggest dragging and dropping, something which doesn't work on my system (it never has - the boxes will move but not dock), but if anyone can help me with any other suggestions it would be very much appreciated.
My hobby is astrophotography and what I cannot do with Siril in linear image or in PixInsight LE in non-linear image I do it with GIMP.
I would like to ask you a question regarding several closely related processes.
I work with raw format that I convert to TIF. In photographs with a high dynamic range, and assuming there has been no loss of information in lights and shadows, it is necessary to increase light in shadows and reduce light in highlights, and then increase local contrast. In GIMP with the G'MIC plug-in I find several processes that I can use. If I use masks I can use them on certain areas and if I break up the image with wavelets
I will be able to use them only on certain structures (stars or nebula).
In relation to the dynamic range of the image:
1. Colors > Exposure (exposure for me is a combination of aperture, ISO and exposure time, but this process has two sliders for shadow level and 'exposure'). There is a tutorial to bring up the shadows, but what about the highlights?
2. Colors > Shadows/highlights
3. Colors > Brightness/contrast
4. Colors > Auto > Equalize
My doubt with these is because I think that they are several perspectives of the same thing: the modification of the black point, the white point, and the midtones in the histogram; and I have no information on whether they cut out the information or not. Is there any other tool that will help improve the dynamic range of this
type of images?
Regarding the dynamic range, and trying to be clearer, I am looking for a tool that allows me to increase the space of the shadows and the highlights, at the expense of a compression of the midtones, so that I can extract detail from the extremes of hystogram (and this is not only to move three points in the hystogram I suppose)
And to increase the local contrast:
1. Filters > G'MIC > Details > Local contrast enhancement
2. Filters > G'MIC > Details > Tone mapping
Are they the same? From a technical point of view, could someone tell me what each of these processes does?
Have hundreds of old slides to scan in, and unfortunately, the majority of them seem to be Kodak Ektachrome, and have a red/brown tinge to them.
Is there a good tutorial around, or an "easy fix" to correct this? (He says, hopefully...)
Sample:
I've managed to load an editable set of lines. I now want to draw a precision circle and I'm stuck again
Code:
images = gimp.image_list()
fill_type=1
new_image = images[0]
new_layer = new_image.layers[0]
new_vectors=pdb.gimp_vectors_new(new_image, 'Vectors!')
pdb.python_fu_path_csv_import(new_image,new_vectors,"/home/mark/cardano/original.csv")
pdb.gimp_image_add_vectors(new_image, new_vectors, 0)
// all good so far, I now want to stick a circle on it
// the next two lines dont work. says I have wrong parameter type.
points=[[4330,4086],[5749,2526],[5589.639999999999,4205.5199999999995]]
pdb.python_fu_ofn_circumcircle(new_image,points)
Hi, longtime Gimp user, 10+ years, very casually though.
The SSD where Gimp was installed recently died (Christmas). Today, I tried to install Gimp on a different drive and the installation fails. It is trying to install Gimp on the no longer existent drive, and there is no option to install it on the new drive.
Before you tell me to "uninstall the old Gimp" as per the pinned instructions on this forum, Windows uninstaller fails, of course, because the old SSD does not exist. The old SSD is dead.
Therefore, since the Gimp installer lacks such a basic function as drive selection, it appears I will need to spend time in the registry. I am not a computer genius, so yay. Great design choice.
So could someone with a bigger brain than me please explain step by step how to remove the old Gimp from the registry so that the Gimp installer can then install to the correct drive?
This dog was standing on a red mat and you can see some of the red reflected on their white hair. I have removed all the extraneous parts of the image but would like to change the color or tint of the edges.
If I used the fuzzy select tool to select these red areas how can I change those areas to more closely match the surrounding areas that are more white?
when i run the mouse over the photo that i have showing nothing happens...when i turn to black then it rubs the photo out and shows the patern in behind the photo.
Should the white have any affect on the photo or am i missing something?. hope this is clear.
hi ,
I am using gimp 2.10 on windows 10
I want to do the following
Select a polygon section in an image . I am able to do that using free select tool .
Now I want to select any vertex of polygon and pull it farther . This should distort the image inside that polygon . But when I do that simply the polygon shape changes but there is no effect on underlying image .
I hope that I am able to explain my requirement .
To give another example - suppose image is of human body . I draw a polygon such that right hand is inside it , now when I will stretch or squeeze the polygon then right hand should get deformed .
Can you tell me how to do above ?
Thanks.
I am trying to load a set of generated 2 point lines on top of the image they display a hidden geometry to..
I have stuck path-csv-0.1.py in my plug-ins directory and it shows up in the plug in browser.
I cant find where it is in the interface, how to run it.
