  Background change thru windshield
Posted by: h.wayne - 11-25-2020, 12:04 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (2)

I am an automotive photographer and decent Gimp user. I sometimes replace background on images but I haven't figured out how to make the background show up naturally on the other side of the windshield and side windows.  Could someone give me some pointers on how to get started? Much appreciated!  See attachments (this is not my work but what I want to be able to do)

  How is Darktable added to Gimp 2.10.22?
Posted by: Kuen - 11-25-2020, 11:20 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

My computer : Desktop, Windows 10 home 64b. V.20H4
My Camera : Sony 7 mark II
My Lenses :  All vintage primes.  No auto lens.
Image File :  All ways shoot RAW files.

I plan to save money for buying new gears. Therefore, want to use Gimp. 
First time to touch Gimp.  Cannot open RAW files.  Message advising to install Darktable.
My question: Does Gimp pick only the RAW editing function from Darktable  or install the whole Darktable?
Thanks.

  Is there a way of removing/remapping certain mouse functions?
Posted by: Ellie_Bee - 11-25-2020, 07:23 AM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

I've recently gotten a new mouse, and it has two additional left and right inputs on the scroll wheel, which in Gimp, scrolls the image in the corresponding direction. A neat feature, though redundant in my use as I've grown very used to dragging my image around by holding down the middle mouse button. This wouldn't be an issue, except this mouse has a bit tougher of a middle click, and most of the time I try and click it, which is very often, I end up clicking the sensitive left and right inputs. This very frustratingly shifts my canvas over quite a bit whenever I go to move it. Is there a way to disable the left and right scrolling, or even remap those inputs to also drag the image? My apologies if this is an obvious solution, I haven't figured out how to do it in preferences, and under input controllers, I don't even see those commands mapped to anything.

  Process To Make Blurry Text Legible
Posted by: Gimpy222 - 11-25-2020, 02:19 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have several photographs that were taken of old blueprints where there was poor lighting and various levels of camera shake causing much of the text to be illegible. Many times the text appears as doubled with one set lighter than the other. I've tried playing with levels mostly and am having difficulty coming up with a process to enhance the text enough to be sure of the dimensions written. Mostly the fractions are hardest to pull out.

I really need some help. The original blueprints have been destroyed and these photographs are all that survive. It is very important to extract the information so that new drawings can be created.

Below is two different photograph snips of the same area on the blueprint.

Thanks Sandy

  ofn-bend-path error / help?
Posted by: eepjr24 - 11-24-2020, 11:29 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (14)

Trying to learn to manipulate paths better, so I got ofn-bend-paths installed and thought I had set everything up correctly. I have one image (paths) with the two strokes in it. 

   

The second image (bends) shows what I am trying to bend and the error.

   

Am I doing something obvious wrong?

Also it does not affect functionality at all, but "should" is missing an L in the error message.

  Font Problem
Posted by: Chimmy - 11-24-2020, 10:46 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Cannot get font "X-Files" to work in Gimp, tried:
Re-installing, reloading font, re-installing font.

The font shows up under list but is not the true font, pressing enter when selected does not switch it. Any solution would be appreciated.

Sad Mac Ports Error Starting GIMP 2.10.20
Posted by: bruceagarrett - 11-24-2020, 05:54 PM - Forum: OSX - No Replies

As there is no MacOS installed for the current stable version, I thought I'd try Macports as suggested on the downloads page. Everything looked good as the pieces were fetched and then configured, built and installed. But GIMP will not run. Instead I get the following:

Bagheera:MacOS bruce$ ./GIMP
2020-11-24 12:21:50.235 GIMP[61273:512327] Failed to connect (cancelButton) outlet from (ScriptExecController) to (NSButton): missing setter or instance variable

Cannot open display:


Please advise if this is something I can fix, or if this shows a bug I should report. 

FYI...I am running MacOS 10.13.6 and XCode 10.1. Mac Ports version is 2.6.4. Here is what my system profiler reports:

  Restore
Posted by: Rob1955 - 11-24-2020, 12:05 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

I want to colourise, a photo, but first, it's needs some repair. A lot of the repair, will be easy but there is one area, I'm not sure about. I've attached the photo, showing the problem area. Because of the difference in shades, I'm not sure what to do. I'm sure I've seen, somewhere, where you can select an area, and have it match up to the area next to it, but don't know how to do it.

I am applying quite a few bump maps in my current project (regional map) and get the fatal error about 1 in 6-8 times. The image is kind of large (~86 MB) but most times works fine.
