  color palette malfunction
Posted by: coelacanth - 12-10-2020, 11:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

hi in my gimp color palette a triangle appeared, months ago, in the corners of the color rectangles. i do not know how or why. it sometimes makes it impossible to do what i want to do and sometimes things seem to work normally.
can someone tell me why it appeared? what it is and how to get rid of it? ...and why colors appear there that i haven't chosen for anything?
i've clicked every icon within the color box and many things elsewhere on the page; i've tried the "help" option and i've websearched the question, phrased different ways. i've gotten no explanations and nothing that references it.

...it seems to me one effect it has is it mixes the color i've chosen with the color in the triangle (image 3)...?
another thing that i think is related is that, as my last attached image shows, i try to lighten a color, the triangles disappear (on the palette only, not on the work page) but when i try to use the new color it does not work. (ie, bucket fill - the color stays the darker one... but if i go to a much lighter shade, it seems to mix with the color in the tiangle, making a completely different color - as in image 3)

 Thank you!

  Guide to Ofnuts Tools
Posted by: carmen - 12-10-2020, 10:30 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

Well, as threatened, it's out: download here https://drive.google.com/file/d/14Be0yAQ...sp=sharing

  1. As always, feedback welcome (keeping in mind that I am only responsible for collating Ofnuts documentation into e-book format--epub)
  2. For those unfamiliar with epubs, basic tips on epub usage on your computer can be found here https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-A-Guid...nuts-Paths
  3. Another tip:
  • create a directory (folder) 'Guides'
  • put there your downloaded guides, cheat-sheets and other helping documents, or links to them
  • add the folder to your taskbar as 'new taskbar'
   
  • remember that epubs are fully text-searcheable, besides coming with a nice Table of Contents
Enjoy!

  Beginner VS Gimp
Posted by: pepeh - 12-10-2020, 04:29 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi.


have some problems with gimp.

1. I don't have all tools on the tool bar (not sure but it's like only 1/3)
2.How to import more than 2+ images? (in 2+ sepereted windows)  For example when I wanna take a colour from 1 picture and use on other or to resize it and put later on the 2nd layer.

3.Last but not least.Soo annoying is when I want to move 1 picture the some other layer is moving.How to lock or whatever the layer.

Question Layer Group - add or remove multiple layers
Posted by: Krikor - 12-08-2020, 02:02 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hello all,

Are there any ways to manage adding or removing multiple layers in a Layer Group?

Something like moving linked layers, or visible layers or whatever?

There is the Multiple Layer Actions script, but it does not perform this task.

I always have to do this one by one.

Thanks!

  Export with hidden alpha channel
Posted by: PancakeIdentity - 12-08-2020, 01:04 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi all, I have a question about alpha channels. When I click the eye icon next to the alpha channel of a layer to hide it, then export it to PNG, the exported image still has the alpha channel. However, removing the alpha channel entirely produces a different, unwanted result, turning the image blue-ish. This blueness is kept when exported.

Is there any way I can export my image to a PNG so that it looks like it does in GIMP with a hidden alpha channel?

Thanks!

  Automate export jpg to png
Posted by: Noteworthy - 12-07-2020, 09:05 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have a significant number of jpegs that require editing.

I prefer to save my edits as png doing the following:
(1) Shift+Ctrl+E
(2) Alt+T for Select File Type (By Extension)
(3) mouse click on "By Extension"
(4) Type "png" press Enter
(5) Alt+E for Export
(6) Alt+E for Export
As you can see, I use keyboard shortcuts and do so rapidly. However, for such a large volume of jpegs, this becomes time-consuming and laborious.

Is there any way to automate this process? Grateful to hear if there is a way to do so.

Many thanks

Can anyone tell me how to remove the dark splotches in the background of this image. Some of these dark splotches are up against the hair of the monkey. Is there a way to mask the monkey using Edge Detect, and if so what are the steps?

Photo How can I separate an into groups?
Posted by: pixaeiro - 12-07-2020, 01:26 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hello,

Is there any GIMP tool or plugin that can be used to separate an image into groups with the same color?

This is what I'd like to achieve:

[Image: w8SUX5F.png]

I created the layers using the fuzzy selection tool and pasting the selection as a new layer. I'd like to do something like this but with one click... like when using Filter > Enhance > Wavelet-Decompose or Colors > Components > Decompose.

Thank you!
