  Can I select something across multiple layers?
Posted by: Geocide - 09-28-2021, 06:02 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello, I am making a heightmap for the game Teardown, and I am new to complex editors like gimp entirely. 
[Image: 8ZtOvHv]
The port (the section with uniform color) and the ground above the port, shown as a brighter red, are on different layers. I need to select the area within the port, minus the area covered by lighter shades of red. If it's helpful, the reason I need to select this particular section is because I want to add a specific shade of blue on top of this section on a new layer.
The preview isn't showing the image, so in case it doesn't work, I will also link the image below. Thanks for any help!

  How to overlay layers
Posted by: Krikor - 09-28-2021, 02:44 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

What I'm trying to do is overlay a stack of layers on top of another stack, keeping the order of the layers.

Something like I tried to demonstrate in the image below, where the stack of Image 02 is on top of the stack of Image 01.
[Image: hqXeQvR.png]
I tried to use the Plug-in Interleave layers, but the interleaving between the layers occurs (alternating layers of Image 01 with those of Image 02).
[Image: 4Xsf9V6.png]
I tried:
A - Export the layers of Image 02;
B - Open as layers, inside Image 01.

But in this case there is an inversion in the order of the layers of Image 02:
Instead of coming in order (from top to bottom) A00, A01, ..., A50, it comes as A50, ...,A01, A00.

I thought of using the Layer - Stack - Reverse Layer Order option, but in this case all the layers of the image are inverted and not just the layers of Image 02 (which are inverted by this process).

In short, what would be the way to obtain the result of Image 03

Thx!

  Get all pixel coordinates of selection
Posted by: joho21 - 09-27-2021, 07:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hello there! I've used GIMP for various different things over time and I've recently been thinking about how to automate some of my image processing needs. What I would like to know: is there an easy way to either get a list of all the XY coordinates of all pixels in a  particular selection or, barring that, get the XY coordinates of all the pixels on a given layer?

  python-fu-ofn-bend-path What am I doing wrong?
Posted by: PixLab - 09-26-2021, 02:13 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Everything is in the title => I'm not able to bent GIMP (I'm speaking about the "Path"  Big Grin )
A picture is worth thousands words (the word GIMP is way smaller than the envelope, and "Path" is selected (NOT the envelope, anyway I tried also with the envelope selected Big Grin ) )
   

tried to restart, it does nothing.

  Is GIMP the best software for me?
Posted by: SamuelRox - 09-26-2021, 01:00 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (7)

Hi
Im not a designer but our art teacher has told us that if we are interested in doing art for a job we should get GIMP. But a friend of my dad says this is bad advice and I must learn to use Illustrator.

What do you think is this true. Will I able to make the kind of things that I want to with GIMP. 

Also I think Illustrator is pretty expensive and I don't think my parents would get it for me.

  Using Guides
Posted by: gazza - 09-26-2021, 04:18 AM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (3)

I have been trying to put together a simple image that will end up 190mm in width using the Guides. I need to place vertical guides 10mm , 25mm, 30mm, and the next 7 at 17mm. I have tried to create a new image the exact length that would be required, and tried to add the guides. I start from the L/H side and all of the guides are measured from the L/H side except I add the additional length each one. When I check with the measuring tool, and when I look at the measurements on the bottom of the screen they are nothing like what I have put in. I have used, Pixels, and MM and CM, but I cannot get this one to work. I have looked for a Tutorial on this, but cannot find one to answer my questiions. This is not the first time this particular task has got me very frustrated. I have also tried using the measuring tool but this does not seem to help. 
Regards
Gazza

  Problems with colors? settings? layers?
Posted by: chris64 - 09-25-2021, 08:40 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I can't draw a color. When I try the opposite color comes out. (kinda but not really) That's because the color that comes out depends on the colors of the layers underneath. For example I tried to draw a white rectangle but it instead the rectangle became several colors. Some parts are blue, green, white, black, brown, and purple. Huh
