  Toolbox disappears
Posted by: Geoff St@rt - 06-02-2020, 12:01 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi,
I am happy with the new arrangement of the GIMP toolbox and the grouping of tools.
However, my toolbox has started disappearing almost completely. This is nothing to do with docked dialogs not being displayed or the Ctrl+B key shortcut.
Screenshot of barely visible tools

This view shows a sliver of tools just visible but not usable. When I switch off the Use Toolbox groups checkbox in the Preferences\Toolbox dialog the tools do appear, but I like them grouped.
I am currently teaching a group of people online and I want to present a consistent view for all.
Is there a fix for this problem?
Thank you in hope!
Geoff Stilwell

  I Can't Get A Logo Right - How Can I Make Edges Smooth?
Posted by: MyaGrimm - 06-01-2020, 11:00 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi, I don't have much experience trying to illustrate in GIMP. I'm trying to make a simple logo for my mom's small painting business. I attached a photo to show the issue I'm having - on the very left is an image I saw on Google - they made paint streaks look like the letter 'T', I'm trying to do the same thing with the letter, "J". My "corners" aren't turning out as rounded as I'd like, you can see the angles in the turns.


HOW I ATTEMPTED TO DO IT:
If you look to the right, those are 3 different attempts - I tried to do it by creating different transparent layers, taking the rectangle select tool and then rounding the edges, making 8 layers and filling the alternating layers with white/black and growing the layers by 6 pixels each time. Am is my resolution too low and I should just be working bigger? 6 pixels doesn't seem like a lot, so maybe I'm working too small - but maybe there's a better way to do it overall. Thank you Smile

  Pen Pressure Sensitivity Problem
Posted by: theyellowestflower - 06-01-2020, 08:50 PM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

Hi folks!

It's been a really long time since I've posted to a forum, so please forgive me if I don't have the normal "forum manners". I'm looking for help with a very specific problem that I don't have the know-how to solve.

I have an active stylus with pressure sensitivity that I'm using with my HP Spectre 360. It's a touchscreen computer and the pressure sensitivity does seem to work well with OneNote for Windows, which is not an application I'd like to use for drawing. I knew that there weren't any pressure sensitivity settings in Paint.Net (the program I've been using for a while for digital art) and decided to download GIMP after reading good things. 

However, now that I have GIMP, I can't seem to find a way for it to register the pen as different than the mouse, or to sense that there is different pressure being put on the pen nib in general. It's very sad and a little tiring to have it work in an application not made for drawing, then not work at all in an application made for art, as someone who enjoys non-digital drawing.

If there's anyone out there with any solutions to this problem- be it an external driver or fiddling with settings or anything, I would really appreciate the help!

Thank you so much in advance!

  high-pass filter in python fu
Posted by: theuncle2k - 06-01-2020, 06:15 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (1)

Hello everyone,

it might be me overlooking something obvious, but I cannot find anywhere the procedure to call the high-pass filter in Python-fu.

Just to be on the same page, the filter can be found in "filters - enhance - high pass.." in GIMP 2.10.

I cannot find it in the procedure database. I also tried to look in the scripts folder, in order to import it or re-implement it, but it's not there, so it might be a built-in.

Do you know how I can call the high-pass filter in a script?

  Transparent layer problem
Posted by: Penguin - 06-01-2020, 05:07 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

    Is there a way to fix this? Example: When using the brush on a non transparent layer, everything is fine and the transition is smooth. But when I draw on a transparent layer the transition isn't as smooth anymore and looks quite bad. I just hope there's a way to get rid of this.

  Scripting GEGL operations
Posted by: Kevin - 06-01-2020, 10:55 AM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (14)

As someone eventually raised an issue about scripting GEGL: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/1686 I took the code Massimo wrote and butchered it a bit to make it easier to create multiple PDB entries.

I would appreciate it if someone on Linux would try out my code to see if it works (as I only have Windows).

Suggestions on code improvements/re-writes welcome Smile


There are two files in the zip archive. The Python that does the work and the .scm that uses the new gegl operations, which registers scripts here
   

Thanks

EDIT 2020.08.24: Removed attachment as it's the wrong way to do it.

  Remove selection question
Posted by: sl60 - 05-31-2020, 11:04 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I selected an area of a png black-and-white drawing, then pasted a separate file into it and anchored it, then moved on to other parts of the image. Then I decided I wanted to scale the former pasted image bigger and unfortunately I had already saved it to send to someone, so the Edit menu was wiped out. So I ran the rectangle select over the entire pasted area (and beyond the borders as well), knowing that the existing parts of the drawing would not be wiped out and so was able to erase the pasted area. But when I re-selected the area to re-paste the file, the entire selection I had just made returned (beyond the borders as well) and so the file pastes in those parts outside the area that I want to paste into.

Is there a way to undo this selection and start fresh?


I solved the issue by using Paths. But I'm wondering if there could be another way?
