  How to change the menu icon size?
Posted by: Marge Simpson - 10-20-2020, 01:34 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I rotated the screen capture 90 degrees because it would be too long vertically.

As you see below, even though I have changed the UI font size by editing the "gtkrc" file, the icons does not seem to scale. Those images seem to be from share\gimp\2.0\icons\Symbolic-High-Contrast\scalable\apps, and they are vector images (.svg), but they don't scale at all. Whether at I choose Preference->Interface->Icon Theme "Guess icon size from resolution" or "Custom icon size = Huge", the menu icon size does not change.

Is there any way to change the menu icon size? Or is this a bug and there is currently no way to change the menu icon size?

  Issues with Image size, Canvas size
Posted by: rhenkel - 10-17-2020, 11:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

[I’ve been using GIMP for a couple of months.  After creating a new document 11x17 inches, 300dpi, I export a pdf and take it to the printer who says the document is actually over 50” wide.  I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get this right, including watching several instructional videos. 

Maybe when I bring artwork that was shot on my iPhone into GIMP the canvas size changes?  I don’t understand what’s happening here.

Can you help?

Thank you.
I’m using a MacBook Pro, Catalina 10.15.7

Posted by: natineo - 10-17-2020, 04:18 PM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (1)

Hi everyone

I have a set of Clip Studio Paint brushes in the .sut format.
I can't open them with GIMP.

Do you know how to convert those files into .gbr or any other readable format?

Thank you!

  Dear God please tell me if this is even possible.
Posted by: malice936 - 10-16-2020, 05:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

I have spent the last 6 HOURS trying to do one simple thing, transform a rectangular image into a right triangle without distorting the pixel placement vertically. I have used EVERY transform tool, looked through every filter, and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this. So PLEASE if anyone can tell me if this is possible, and if so how I can do it, it would be greatly appreciated.

  What am I doing wrong with Merge Down?
Posted by: bobcov - 10-15-2020, 03:59 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi,
    I am adding two signatures from jpg into a pdf document (well no, I changed one of the jpgs to xcf, but this problem occurs with the 2nd sig added, no matter the format).
1. Open pdf as layers
2. open the signature file as layers
3. put the signature file onto the document
4. Select Darken only and position the signature
5. Select "merge down" for the signature layer
6. It saves fine into the PDF

BUT, when I do this for the 2nd signature, as soon as I do "merge down", the signature vanishes. I have a feeling this has something to do with layers getting in each other's way or something, but I have no idea how to fix.

I also put in two text fields near by with the date.  I did not need to use merge down or darken for those fields and they also worked with the single signature as well as the vanished signature. 

What am I doing wrong?

  Finding distance for winding road on map
Posted by: carljong - 10-15-2020, 10:54 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I have a map image that has a very winding walking trail.  I wanted to find the distance of the trail. I was imagining using Gimp to capture the graphic of the winding trail, converting it into a line, and then stretching it out straight so I can see the distance of the trail.

What would be the steps to do that in Gimp?

Thanks,

  How do I stop text hyphenation?
Posted by: juliandracos - 10-15-2020, 01:16 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I just updated from GIMP 2.8 to 2.10.22.  In this version of GIMP, when it reaches the edge, it adds a hyphen (-) and then goes down to the next line.  While I am sure that is useful for some, it is ruining things for me.  I cannot find any options for text and searches for how to stop hyphenation in GIMP has not found anything?  Is there any way to turn this off?  It seems really weird for it to have been added without the ability to stop it.
