  offset between cursor and clone source on 2.10.20
Posted by: cnawillmer - 09-28-2020, 12:49 AM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

I am using Scientific Linux 7, a clone of RHEL 7 and installed 2.10.20 via flatpak. I am finding that there is an offset between the cursor and the region from where the clone tool is copying pixels.
The separation and angle  between both will change depending where the cursor is located on the screen (see attached figure - clone will be using pixels where the cross is located, while cursor is located at the arrow's position). If either falls outside the window clone will fail. A similar effect happens when cropping the image. Just for the sake of it I also installed 2.10.20 in a Windows 7 virtual machine and there clone works as it should. The same holds true when I run GIMP 2.8 under linux.  Has anyone else found such an effect ?

  Arrows with lines
Posted by: Forumer - 09-27-2020, 09:09 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Rich just told me about creating lines of different colors that worked perfectly. I also read about arrow script which uses paths.

Is there a way to create lines, of different colors, with arrows as you are creating them without having to create a path first or whatever way is most convenient?

Thanks

  shortcut to change foreground color
Posted by: Forumer - 09-27-2020, 07:25 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I need to draw a series of connected lines but each segment should be of a different color. Is there a quick way (shortcut) to change foreground color without having to do it manually for each segment?

Thanks

  Ver 2.10.20. Does noit save exif
Posted by: Marty0750 - 09-26-2020, 01:49 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (2)

The check box to save exif data is there and checked but greyed out. I understand libexif is required. I find exif-12.dll in the "Darktable" folder. How is it activated for Gimp?

  Green dotted line.
Posted by: Jim - 09-26-2020, 11:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I'm new to Gimp and was doing brilliantly until my brushes stopped working.  The 'marching ants' in the active window have been replaced with a dotted green line.  I`ve spent several hours trying to correct this. Can anyone please help?

  Wacom one pressure problem in Gimp
Posted by: Apo - 09-26-2020, 10:01 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello! I just got my new Wacom one and wanted to test it out in Gimp but ran into the problem that pressure sensitivity (of the pen) is not working. I ran into similar problems before with my last tablet so I tried out a few things:
- connect the tablet before opening Gimp
- check that I was using pressure opacity or a pressure-sensitive setting when using pen or brush
- go to the setting where you can check that gimp recognizes the tablet and put the tablet as "screen" and save.

I also checked whether the problem may be the tablet by downloading a random drawing program and testing it out. There the pressure from the pen works.
I also downloaded the newer 2.10.2 version of Gimp thinking that maybe the older version is not compatible.

If anyone got an idea what I might have to do to make this work I'd love some ideas, I enjoy the new tablet a lot and would love to be able to paint and draw. Please be aware I'm not very knowledgable about the technical sides of GimpShy

Thanks in advance!

Question Seeking Guidance RE Digitizing of Old Book
Posted by: DBinSJ - 09-25-2020, 10:06 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I'm trying to digitize an old Russian-language book, to put it up on Google Books and similar platforms, for open access.

Increasing the contrast by 50 (under Colors/Brightness-Contrast) seems to help with readability.

A sample of the unaltered version has been uploaded here
A sample of the same page, with contrast increased by 50 has been uploaded here.

I'm seeking advice as to whether (a) the version with the contrast increased is indeed more readable and (b) there would be a better way of changing the image, to maximize readability—or have I likely hit the sweet spot?

Any feedback/suggestions would be most appreciated. I'm a novice with regard to Gimp and similar programs.
