  How do I set up an guide layout?
Posted by: AndiGreyScale - 06-08-2020, 12:11 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I apologize for the vague title, I'm just not sure how to phrase what it is I want to do.

I basically need help figuring out how to do something like this-

Not the designs in it, but the layout itself. It's all perfectly aligned and I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it in GIMP.

Something like this, in photoshop.

  Paths tool multiple selections?
Posted by: sl60 - 06-07-2020, 07:19 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I never tried this before. What if, say, you construct a square with the paths tool, select it, and then decide to add a triangle to this shape and select this, too? I tried holding down SHIFT but that doesn't work. Any other ways?

  How to give fabric folds?
Posted by: Jonior - 06-07-2020, 04:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I would like to check how I leave a cloth, a quilt, as in the example in the attached image, with that aspect of folds, so that it looks natural, and not a flat image. Both linearly, as at the head, as circular, as on the bedspread in the side image of my example attached.

This one is mine that I want to give this double effect:

Thank you in advance.  Cool

  newbie im afraid
Posted by: rhyshuelin - 06-07-2020, 01:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi guys i'm new to the forum and new to GIMP i'm afraid. I hope that someone may be able to help?  I am starting a new business and have designed a new label in canva.  The problem is the triangles on the label at the moment are purple and I seem to be unable to change the colour of them.  I have 20 products in total and each product needs a different colour.  Is there an easy way to be able to change the colour 20 times and maybe make the labels a little less blurry when zooming in.  Thanks in advance, I have attached a copy of the label (jpg) so you can see what I mean.  Thanks in advance

  How does one make an image/layer transparent?
Posted by: JTWrite - 06-06-2020, 11:00 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Please keep in mind that I am mostly ignorant when it comes to using Gimp 2.1.  I am making a cover for the book I just finished.  The main image I'm using for the front cover needs to be made slightly transparent.  Here's what I've done:  First I clicked on the image (which is, I believe, my second layer) and then used the "Opacity" menu on the right to try and adjust the image.  What I get is a checkerboard.  Totally weird, at least from this newbie's point of view.  What is happening and how do I get this to work for me.  (BTW something I read seemed to suggest that it mattered what type of file your image was saved as.  This is a JPEG.)

  Pasting from the Clipboard created by PrtScr key
Posted by: alanm - 06-06-2020, 01:50 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (1)

I have been unable to discover a way for a script to paste from the clipboard (clipboard image created by "PrtScr" key). I can obviously use the edit>paste option to do it manually (which works), but the procedure in a script using "gimp-edit-paste-as-new-image" does not return an image. I realise that the procedure notes state

"This procedure pastes a copy of the internal GIMP edit buffer to a new image. The GIMP edit buffer will be empty unless a call was previously made to either 'gimp-edit-cut' or 'gimp-edit-copy'. This procedure returns the new image or -1 if the edit buffer was empty."

and the clipboard is not mentioned (whereas it is in pasting brushes and patterns).

I have not been able to find anything on this after many hours of searching.

My question is "Is it possible in TinyScheme/ScriptFu?"
