  Moving file tabs
Posted by: ellencooper - 02-17-2021, 01:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hey there,

I am trying to reorganize file tabs by clicking and dragging to the position I want, but they do not move.  I've tried shift-click, ctrl-click, alt-click. win-click...nothing works.  What am I doing wrong?

Win 10 64 bit; GIMP 2.10.22

Thanks!

  Text Centre Align Issue
Posted by: DrumFu - 02-16-2021, 07:55 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello, I'm a novice user of gimp and I'm having an issue with the text tool. 

When I try to use the "Centered" alignment of the text tool, it seems to be aligning waaaay to the right. Take a look at the attached screenshot for an example.

I'm assuming there's some setting I've amended by accident. Does anyone have any clues?

Thanks very much.

  Gimp 2.8; looking for the Beautify plugin (Lubuntu Linux)
Posted by: Immortality - 02-16-2021, 04:42 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (3)

Hello everyone,

This is my first post, thank you for hosting this forum.
Before I began this thread I have searched the forum (and the Net) for topics/search results that might already have dealt with my question, but I could only find results for Gimp ran on Windows. I run Lubuntu Linux (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, 32 bits [I think]).

First of all, I am a n00b in both Linux and The Gimp Smile. Please take this in consideration. My skill on installing or operating my Linux OS does presently not go beyond performing the sudo apt-get install "x" command. Please bear with me.

I recently saw an article online that demonstrated the life sketch function of the Beautify plugin. I was very impressed and would really like to use it.

The first problem is, is that I could not find the plugin anywhere on the Internet. Perhaps my n00b-fu is at fault here.  I would appreciate a link.
The second question would be, if I could please receive some guidance and advice as how to install the plugin. Taking my n00b-fu in consideration.

Thank you for your  guidance and your patience,

Immortality

  ASCII text
Posted by: denzjos - 02-16-2021, 11:53 AM - Forum: Other graphics software - Replies (2)

Silly, but if one want to put some text art in his design, this could be a help. 
https://www.kammerl.de/ascii/AsciiSignature.php
Make some text, choose the font, the parameters and the style (gray, white or old school green)
Make a screendump with the text in white style (background) to load it in gimp. (File / Create from clipboard)
To remove the background (if necessary) white in gimp :  Colours / Colour to Alpha
This remind me when I was working on a PC with a Hercules graphics card on a green or amber monochrome monitor.

Shocked How to clear a .gif image from a filter by confronting with the original image
Posted by: Ambrus - 02-15-2021, 02:40 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hi!
Hi designed i simple "shutter" with GIMP, a layer painted with a brush and a level of opacity say of 30% I think. I saved the image in .png so I can import that image in an another program I use to work with gif animations.
I use no one, one or more of this shutter on each gif I work with.

The question is: If I have to remove the effect of the opacity layer I added to the gif animation as part of the workflow and I have the original .gif I can think of materially import in GIMP the original gif and the new one, and work some magic by confronting each and every frame of the two animation, one at the time...never ending story!!

So: There is a system to automate the process with gimp, confronting the new and variously worked gif with the original, maybe applying on the way a mask in small zones so in those zones they stay in the new form?
Thanks for reading me, hope to be enough understandable.

Thanks to all, have a nice day, night etc.
Ambrus

  Best way to select pen from old drawing
Posted by: jediguitar101@yahoo.com - 02-15-2021, 02:36 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I've got an old Dungeons and Dragons map from I was a kid and I'm trying to remove the drawing/pen (which is black/grey at varying degrees) from the off-white/blue-grid-graph-paper that it was drawn on. What's the best way to go about this?

  text in space
Posted by: denzjos - 02-14-2021, 07:39 PM - Forum: Other graphics software - No Replies

For a making weird text one can use the 'spacetypegenerator' :
https://spacetypegenerator.com/index.html
One can transform a text with a bunch of sliders and if one is satisfied with the design, one can make a screendump and load it in gimp. (File / Create from clipboard)
To remove the background (if necessary) white or other colors in gimp :  Colours / Colour to Alpha 
By clicking on the 'select button' (top right) one get different generators.

  Polar Coordinates Filter: 1 pixel seam
Posted by: stonebe - 02-14-2021, 05:12 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

The Polar Coordinates Filter sometimes leaves a 1 pixel seam. This often occurs after editing an image which consists of two layers which are merged to one layer. The gap can be avoided by marking the "Map backwards" option. However, this workaround sometimes enforces another correction afterwards. Is there a known approach to handle (i.e. avoid) this 1 pixel seam problem?

Im currently using Gimp 2.10 on macOS Big Sur Version 11.1.
