I have an image and I cut out the middle and want to fill the transparent middle part by dragging in the remaining image from the edges of the cut out part.

Any ideas?

Hey Folks,

I am hoping I can get some help with recreating an image into a "hatch" file that consists only of black and white lines or dots. Attached is an attempt of mine to create this using the Newsprint Filter. The problem with my attempt is the areas of greyscale. I need something that is simply and only full black and full white. The width and frequency of the lines will convey the image brightness. 

An example of what I'm attempting is shown in this YouTube video, where the author uses a CNC program to recreate an image of Steve Jobs with the black and white hatch.

About 4:50 in the video shows a closeup of the final product, showing how the image is portrayed with full black and white. 

Is this possible in GIMP? I appreciate the help.

A wish to make this clock face image see-through.

Hi,

Is it please possible to import some or all layers of a Gimp image to an other one ?

Thanks 

This surprised me a bit. I wanted to add the "illuminated" red text to the above cartoon. And of course .gif does not support partial transparency, so the glow around the letters was a problem.


See my "work in progress" screen here (large)  https://i.imgur.com/aHVH8nA.png

As you will notice, I was planning on using the full sized background file, with just a smaller layer to show the reddened text. Utilizing the (combine) attribute on both layers. This strategy  has worked well for me with gifs numerous times...but alas the partial transparency....so I decided to go with .webp

And, it worked.  But I was surprised to discover that gimp automatically generated a duplicate of the back ground layer in it's entirety, and combined that with the red letters to create a new second layer, at full size. You can download the above image and open it in gimp to verify.
Basically it "deoptimized" the animation, in conventional .gif parlance

Which gave me sort of a "duh" moment, realizing that I could have done the same thing with a gif, and managed the partial transparency in a way that .gif would not plunder.

But, there is a silver lining.  The .webp version is still half the file size compared to a "doctored" gif version.

After scanning a 35mm strip of Ilford Ortho B&W (negative) film, VueScan does a fairly decent job of displaying the inverted end result (VueGrab attached). BTW they're stereo pairs, hence the repetition. But on importing the RAW file into GIMP 2.10 and invoking the Colors/Invert function, that presents a very washed out version (GimpGrab attached). Any ideas as to why that's happening? I'm familiar with using the RGB Adjustment panel in the case of color negative film but I presume that doesn't have a place when it comes to B&W. Perhaps I'm wrong about that. My thanks in advance for any enlightenment.

Hello.  I have a question or two please?
Gimp leopard pattern.  I need to make the spots small so when I print them they can fit on something that is 1 and a 1/2 inch in length and a 1/4 inch wide.  How can do I do that? Also what is the last full version where the patterns were already installed? Any help would be greatly appreciated ❤️

Hi all!

I was hoping to get some insight about a script I'm trying to work out. I wanted to see if it was possible to create a script to crop images to different sizes. It's always going to be the same number of images, always in the same order, and the size they need to be cropped to is always the same based on the order (i.e., the first image is always cropped to dimensions of A x B, the second is always cropped to dimensions of C x D, etc). If possible, I would also like to have these cropped images assembled in a particular way into a sixth image, and also (if possible) have them all be exported to a folder of my choice under a specific naming convention (again, one based on the order). 

Currently, I have separate scripts to individually crop each size of image, but since the order is always the same, the final assembled image is the same, and the naming convention is the same, I was hoping to be able to speed up this process even more so it could be done with a single click of executing a script. 

Is this something that GIMP can handle? I know that it can't natively batch process the same operation without external tools like BIMP, but I wasn't sure if it could do something like this. If GIMP can't do it, is there something that can? I've been trying to find another program that could do something like this, but so far I'm out of luck.
