  Textlayers not editable anymore
Posted by: HeinzlGimp - 07-16-2022, 11:19 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hey there,

I'm having a big problem.

I'm using a template to edit text on a background photo with already set Textlayers.
All of a sudden the layers are not choosable by leftclicking anymore and I can only edit the layers name, not the text itself.
I didn't save the changes or anything it just suddenly didnt work anymore and now all several savings of the template have the same problem.

Any Idea what I did wrong? How to reverse it?

I read that by rotating or similar actions the layers get converted in to pixels or something and are not editable anymore,but if thats the case why did all change at once and stay 
this way without saving the file?

Help would be REALLY appreciated.

Thanks in advance and have a nice day

Please help me fix this guysSad

  Need basic help
Posted by: bat_dude - 07-15-2022, 09:59 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi all,

Eons ago I used Adobe PS and could do the basic task but have not been able to figure out how to do this in GIMP.

I need to do what I assume is a simple copy of one image and past it on top/into another.
What I need to do is take image of bat call pulses and paste it into another blank image with frequency lines as the background.

This show predicted call frequencies for species not yet known.

Seems the repetitive task will serve my needs but clearly I need a bit of hand holding to master the few steps.  I can not seem to find the correct menu items to select and complete this task.  Once I have the steps I should be able to repeat them as often as necessary.

Tnx for anyone willing to assist.  As the old saying goes"It is never too late to teach an old dog new tricks...it =just takes longer!" ;-)
Cheers
Bat Dude

  Save all open files / Reload Script without Restarting
Posted by: Mark Rock - 07-14-2022, 06:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I have many open files (200+?); I really would like to avoid saving 1 at a time.  I found a script that appears to add a 'Save All' option.  I've installed into correct folders. I think I need to refresh scripts (per https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-filte...pt-fu.html); but I am not seeing an option to refresh scripts.  All I have under script-fu menu is "Console" and "Start Server..."

I would appreciate recommendations on how to achieve the goal of saving all those files; getting that refresh scripts function to execute.

*edited to add* I am using GIMP 2.10.24 (revision 3)

I ended up clicking through Close all.  So accomplished my immediate need... but I do this to myself a lot.  Would be nice to just autoincrement a file name and save it all in one click.

  Move/translate item to absolute position?
Posted by: c_______z______ - 07-14-2022, 03:49 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (1)

gimp-item-transform-translate allows me to move an item relative to its starting position. But what if I wanted to move an item to an absolute position, let's say, to 0,0. Is there a procedure that does that?

  How do I enable hyphenation?
Posted by: Mr.Gabriel-123 - 07-14-2022, 01:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Is there a way to add automatic hyphenation in GIMP?

I'm designing a brochure and need a straighter margin on the right side when the text changes lines, but the only way I've managed to do so is by manually adding a hyphen(-).


Kind regards,

Gabriel

  How to delete a file saved on levels
Posted by: Stephen Liu - 07-14-2022, 11:16 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (19)

GIMP 2.10

How to delete a file saved on levels

I saved a preset file "remove-cast-color" on levels. Pls refers to screenshot.  How can I delete it on screen ?

I can only delete this file on Terminal of Ubuntu 20.04 running;

Code:
$ rm /home/satimis/.config/GIMP/2.10/levels/remove-cast-yellow

To remove colour casts;
Apply Colors > Auto > White Balance from the main menu. This should automatically remove colour casts from most photos but not 100% workable.

On Internet I found following document;

Removing a colour cast using GIMP
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iehOYBYgXE

That document is for GIMP 2.8.  I'm running GIMP 2.10 here.  The screen is different.  Pls help.  Where can I find relevant document fro GIMP 2.10?

Thanks

Regards
