  Window Mode
Posted by: slprice000 - 07-22-2020, 11:01 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I cannot find this  under the image menu bar?  I am running GIMP 2.10.20 (revision 1),

Help appreciated [Image: wink.png]

The GIMP user interface is now available in two modes:

multi-window mode,

single window mode.

When you open GIMP for the first time, it opens in single-window mode by default. You can enable multi-window mode unchecking Windows → >Single-Window Mode) option in the image menu bar. After quitting GIMP, GIMP will start in the mode you have selected next time.

Exclamation G'MIC on MAC with error
Posted by: Kalem - 07-22-2020, 08:48 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (3)

Hi there,

Where do I get newest version of GMIC for MAC?

I was able to install GMIC on MAC for GIMP 2.10.14

I got the GMIC plugin from https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-plu...n/releases
It seems the GMIC version I have is 2 years old.

I got error messages for some of the filter I want to use, such for 
- Layers -> Blend [Seamless]
- Extract Foreground [Interactive]


So where do I get newer version of GMIC for MAC?

Thanks, Kalem


macOS Catalina
Version 10.15.6 (19G73)

  Is there a way to drag to select multiple colors?
Posted by: radzo73 - 07-21-2020, 03:14 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Basically, what I'm looking for is a way to use "Select By Color", but I can drag around to select multiple colors. I'm working with a limited palette (with more than 255 colors, so an Indexed Colormap wouldn't help), but I want to find duplicate colors (i.e two colors that are near-identical and should be one color to make the palette simpler), so using a higher Tolerance defeats the purpose I want.

  Pixel-Perfect Border Selection
Posted by: FireyDeath4 - 07-21-2020, 08:18 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, it's me. (Who is me? I dunno man.)

Anyway, I think I'll make this quick.

Here is a rough 20x20 circle at 800%.

[Image: Circle.png]

Is there a quick way I can select the border like this,

[Image: Circle-Border-Around.png]

rather than like this?

[Image: Circle-Border.png]

Oh and BTW I turned antialiasing off for border selections and then couldn't find the switch again. Must have been in Preferences, but I just looked there and I lost it, so no more antialiasing border selections for me. Ah well, I want it that way usually anyway, since I'm mostly just working with pixel stuff.

And I also just uploaded to ImgBB because the top bar didn't have options to attach images, but now that I'm about to post it, I see the part at the bottom, so that's a bit silly.

  Gimp distort effect like in Paint.net
Posted by: Dgir - 07-20-2020, 06:59 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi. Is there effect like "Dents" effect of Paint.net? For reference https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/Effe...tMenu.html

I recently switched to Linux, and I would like to stop using Windows for help in my projects. Gimp is awesome editor, but I can't fully use it without this feature.

I need something similar to "Dents" effect. Please help. Thank you!

  compress hue range of an image
Posted by: bugblatterbeast - 07-20-2020, 02:41 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi,

I want to reduce the hue range of an image by dividing all hue-values by a variable value without touching the saturation- and lightness-values (any more sophisticated projection of the hue-range would also be very interesting).

I am looking for an automatic process that could for example turn the 1st attached image (temp_full_hue.png) into the 2nd attached image (temp_half_hue.png).

Ofc it wouldn't matter where the resulting hue starts, since I'd be able to shift it to wherever I want.

Kind regards

edit: updated images

  blurring boundaries
Posted by: APDamien - 07-20-2020, 06:18 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have an image that I want to extend to the right. Most of the right border is a vaguely orange-red color, lighter near the top of the image, darker near the bottom.

I want to make that image larger by extending that border to the right. If all of that border followed that pattern, I would just copy it piecemeal and paste it next to the existing border. But there are a few places where bits of furniture etc. touch the right border, and extending those in a straight line would look weird.

So far, I have copied pieces of that right border using a rectangular selection tool at a 400% zoom (with the grid spacing set to 1, this makes each pixel visible to the naked eye) and repeatedly pasted them to the right until I reach the right edge of the (expanded) image.

But where other things touch the right border of the original image, there are breaks in that nice smooth flow from light orange to dark orange, making a hard visual boundary where they meet.

I want to "erase" that boundary, making the transition gradual across the entire right area.

I thought of applying a few hundered iterations of a "relaxation" algorithm: color(x,y) = (color(x+1, y+1) + color(x+1,y-1) + color(x-1,y-1) + color(x-1,y+1))/4 , but I thought it would be better to learn how to do this in GIMP, if I can.

Suggestions?

See the attached image for what I've managed to do so far.

Btw, the messy area in the top center is the result of my trying to erase boundaries with the smudge tool. It didn't work as well as I'd hoped.

  Minimize tools, icons for laptop
Posted by: MarkPawelek - 07-19-2020, 10:42 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

What is the best way to minimize screen space occupied by tools / icons / command windows / etc.?

When working on my laptop with its puny 13" screen I want to see as much of the image as possible. Which means hiding various icon/command/tools windows. What is the best way to do this.  Note: I do not want to get rid of essentials such as the menu and the status tools. How?
