  save image with mask layer to file with transparency
Posted by: bitrat - 01-24-2021, 02:36 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

How? Seems like something that should be straight forward.


Answering my own question here.

mask -> active layer
right click menu -> Mask to Selection
delete mask layer
image -> active layer
fill selection with key color
colors -> color to alpha [select key color]
file -> export as png

Is there a way to do this directly, without the step using color to alpha?
It would be nice if it could all be accomplished in one step.

  Is there a Discourse forum for GIMP?
Posted by: njminchin - 01-24-2021, 01:19 AM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (1)

No offence, but other forum software such as this is super outdated and clunky... is there a Discourse forum for GIMP? I can't seem to find one via Google

  Editing the text in a photo
Posted by: njminchin - 01-24-2021, 01:16 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

First things first... how to I attach an image? I'm used to Discourse forums where you can just paste an image. I get an error if I try that here saying the POST received too much data...

Hi,

It's been a long time since I've tried to do this in Photoshop, and now in Gimp I'm even less competent!

I have this photo below that I want to replace the text in with a more appropriate one (Comic Sans MS, the worst font ever made).

How can I cover over the original text in the photo, while still keeping the texture of the label and the colour variations intact?

Cheers!

  print resolution not sticking when file reopened
Posted by: lawrence.mcdonell@gmail.com - 01-23-2021, 11:49 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

If I open a .xcf, jpg or png and change the resolution in the Scale Image or Print Image dialogs, then export again to jpg or png, when I reopen the new file, the resolution has reverted to what it was (e.g. 72). what could be causing this?

  Upgraded to Gimp 2.10.18 Fade Adjustment Dialog Is Gone Or Moved
Posted by: Bipolar - 01-23-2021, 05:39 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I upgraded my operating system and it came with Gimp 2.10.18.
in the previous version of Gimp when I used the unsharp mask or 
auto color balance there would be under the edit menu the option 
of fading the adjustment I had just made. Its no longer there. Is it 
gone or have they made it hard to find?

Is there any way to find out, in a Python plugin, if a given point (x,y) is in the selection or not?

  May the force be with my Python
Posted by: Ofnuts - 01-22-2021, 09:43 PM - Forum: Watercooler - No Replies

Checking how ofn-enclosing-circle behaved in some complex cases I gave it a shot against a path of the coastline of Ireland. There was a bug with a very tiny island in the southwest that wasn't included because the corresponding stroke had a single anchor. That wasn't Skellig Michael (which is so small it's not in the original SVG) but that was pretty darn close.

Must be a sign.
