  Ellipse Tool not forming perfect circle
Posted by: Arnav - 06-10-2020, 02:06 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello.
I am using GIMP 2.10.18. I have been having a problem with the ellipse tool all of a sudden.
The ellipse tool is not forming a perfect circle on the whole page whenever i hold down Ctrl + Shift. Whereas, it forms a perfect circle in the place where i actually form an ellipse.
This problem is only with ellipse tool. It doesn't create any problems with the rectangular select tool.
I have attached a GIF file to help you guys understand my problem better.
I hope you guys can understand what I'm trying to say.
Please help me.

  Version 2.10.20
Posted by: mholder - 06-10-2020, 10:36 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (10)

Flatpak on my system automatically updated to 2.10.20 just a few days ago.  The official version is still  2.10.18.

I did a search, but I can't find a list of what was changed, just a few youtube videos like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXZ73tIdxH8

Does anyone know where a list of changes is for at least 2.10.19?

  Linux .desktop file
Posted by: akovia - 06-10-2020, 02:12 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

So I've been in the process of rebuilding my system from scratch and ran into something strange today.

I'm running Arch/xfce with Whisker Menu. I always had a panel at the top of my screen with some launchers for commonly used programs, gimp being one of them. Well I decided to get rid of the panel and just use Whisker Menu's program search instead which is like how Windows menu works for the uninitiated. Press the windows key and just start typing what you want.

This has been working well until I tried to launch gimp and it didn't return a match. It was trivial to figure out why, as the word gimp wasn't anywhere in the .desktop file, so there was nothing to match. It just struck me funny that it wasn't and I wondered who was in charge of that. I would think that you'd want the single word your program is known by to be somewhere in the name or the description/comment. 

It was easily fixed by adding gimp to the Comment line, but still....

Code:
[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Type=Application
_Name=GNU Image Manipulation Program
_GenericName=Image Editor
_Comment=Create images and edit photographs
# Translators: Search terms to find this application. Do NOT translate or localize the semicolons! The list MUST also end with a semicolon!

  Custom Window Title for Folder Selection
Posted by: radzo73 - 06-09-2020, 09:36 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (5)

Hey,
In my GIMP 2.8.22 script (because cropping in 2.10 sucks), I've registered a PF_DIRNAME as (PF_DIRNAME, "file_inpath", "Input Image Folder", "/tmp"), and unlike a PF_FILE, where the window title is "[title] - [PF_FILE name]", it shows "Python-Fu Folder Selection". Is there a way to change the window title so that it's just "[the PF_DIRNAME folder name]"?

With hope,
radzo73

Question 2.10.18 - How to revert back to older tool sliders?
Posted by: literallyOneQuestion - 06-09-2020, 05:23 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I think my GIMP updated at some point, and now the tool sliders are thinner (without the bottom layer that increases/decreases slower). Is there any way to revert it back? [Image: Screenshot-from-2020-06-09-00-21-52.png]

  How do I set up an guide layout?
Posted by: AndiGreyScale - 06-08-2020, 12:11 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I apologize for the vague title, I'm just not sure how to phrase what it is I want to do.

I basically need help figuring out how to do something like this-

[Image: MN4RXwo.jpg]

Not the designs in it, but the layout itself. It's all perfectly aligned and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in GIMP.

Something like this, in photoshop.

  Paths tool multiple selections?
Posted by: sl60 - 06-07-2020, 07:19 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I never tried this before. What if, say, you construct a square with the paths tool, select it, and then decide to add a triangle to this shape and select this, too? I tried holding down SHIFT but that doesn't work. Any other ways?

  How to give fabric folds?
Posted by: Jonior - 06-07-2020, 04:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I would like to check how I leave a cloth, a quilt, as in the example in the attached image, with that aspect of folds, so that it looks natural, and not a flat image. Both linearly, as at the head, as circular, as on the bedspread in the side image of my example attached.

This one is mine that I want to give this double effect:

  newbie im afraid
Posted by: rhyshuelin - 06-07-2020, 01:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi guys i'm new to the forum and new to GIMP i'm afraid. I hope that someone may be able to help?  I am starting a new business and have designed a new label in canva.  The problem is the triangles on the label at the moment are purple and I seem to be unable to change the colour of them.  I have 20 products in total and each product needs a different colour.  Is there an easy way to be able to change the colour 20 times and maybe make the labels a little less blurry when zooming in.  Thanks in advance, I have attached a copy of the label (jpg) so you can see what I mean.  Thanks in advance
