  New Layer: Black. Way to add this?
Posted by: Asterra - 09-03-2021, 06:26 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

I'd say I need to add a new black layer about 75% of the time I'm adding a new layer.  So it always struck me as a little odd that you get presented with several default options, but "black" isn't one of them.

All I'm after here is a way to add "black" as a default option so I don't have to sacrifice either my chosen foreground or background color to get it done.

  How to brighten background only?

Hello! Any tips on how to brighten the background only in a portrait? I have tried several techniques but it has ended up choppy each time. Thanks in advance!

  ofn-manual-stipple
Posted by: Ofnuts - 09-02-2021, 08:00 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (5)

This plugins tries to emulate someone hammering a pen on a paper to create hand-made stippling. Basically it converts a luminance map into random paintbrush strokes:

   

At its worst is can generate  lo-fi version of photographs, but the smallest visible detail is around 20x larger than the brush size and it requires a lot of preliminary tweaking:

   


As usual it can be found here.

Enjoy.

PS: Old timers will notice some likeness with RobA's "Random Density Map" script. Actually the ideas are similar. The main differences are:
  • this script tries harder to be luminosity-accurate
  • this script is somewhat faster
  • this script is is not as resource intensive (RDM blows the undo stack to gigantic proportions)
  • RDM has some more functionalities

  Issue with the text quality inside GIMP
Posted by: toplisek - 09-02-2021, 12:26 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (18)

I tried many times but very bad quality when I try to add a box with the text. I have solved using WORD file and write a text with the COPY/PAST within GIMP image. How to solve text as it seem an issue with the resized text and vector behavior. Text is bad quality even used original fonts. Word file has very good quality. Can be improved text quality inside GIMP or I can use another options?

You can see WORD text and ERGO marked text within GIMP. It is distinctive difference. Should we use AI format to use text or there is an option?

  Changing contrast of a text layer works as preview, but not after confirming
Posted by: X3nion - 09-01-2021, 11:41 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (13)

Hey folks,

I'm using Gimp 2.10 and have the problem that a modification doesn't take effekt.

I created a text field (which is created automatically as a separate layer) with a specific text.
Then I wanted to change the contrast of the text/layer. In the contrast window I get the preview of how the "new" text will look like.
However when clicking on the "OK" button, the modification is withdrawn and the old text remains.

What could be the reason for that? And what could be done to get this issue fixed?


I'd be grateful for every hint!


Kind regards,
X3nion

  Plug-in is not returned via Plug-in Browser
Posted by: Krikor - 08-31-2021, 10:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hello!
Why when accessing: ➤ Help - Plug-in Browser and typing luminosity or even ofn-luminosity there is no return from this search for the plugin Ofn-luminosty-masks?

I have other plugins with that name and they all show up when I do this search, except Ofn-luminosty-masks.

Ok, I know where this plug-in is, that's not the case, it's more out of curiosity than a real need.
I found that all plugins could be found through this search.

What would be the explanation?

Thx.

  GIMP Won't Launch
Posted by: Piz - 08-31-2021, 03:31 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (12)

Just like the title says. I click to launch GIMP and it either appears to do nothing or it flashes the title screen and starts loading stuff then quits after a second or two.

So far, I have:

  • Restarted my machine.
  • Uninstalled and reinstalled, with and without Revo Uninstaller.
  • Manually renamed my GIMP folder in AppData.
  • Manually deleted my GIMP folder in AppData.
  • Manually deleted all GIMP folders in AppData.
  • Re-downloaded the installer.
  • Done all of the above, AFAIK, in all combinations.
My most recent attempt was uninstalling with Revo, manually deleting all the GIMP folders I could find in AppData (it creates one in Local as well as the primary one in Roaming; Local only has a folder for crash logs, which don't appear), rebooting, and installing with Revo. GIMP launched and ran for perhaps an hour, then crashed and will not launch again. That has happened multiple times trying the same sequence.

I'm running:
  • GIMP 2.10.24
  • Windows 10 Pro 19043.1165
  • Asus ZenBook 13, 12Gb

Thanks for any and all help!
