Sad ?? No benefit of a faster CPU
Posted by: T-buch - 05-21-2020, 08:02 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I try to run a Filter (Distorts -> Newsprint) on two different CPUs

1. participant: Intel Core i5-4670K @ 3.40GHz, 4 Cores
2. participant: Intel Core i5-3320M @ 2.60GHz, 2 Cores

I was amazed that there was almost no difference in how fast the CPUs ran through the filters ??

  Diffrent Strokes for Different Folks
Posted by: Dragonfire - 05-21-2020, 04:46 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I created three different lines using the paths tool and wanted to stroke each path with a different color.  Each time I try to stoke with a different color, all three paths change to that color.  How do I isolate the paths from one another?

  Single letter shifts text's y-axis
Posted by: BedroomMoth - 05-20-2020, 06:28 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hi, I've been working on a card game and I'd like the position of each text to be consistent.

My problem is that as soon as I type the letter "d" the font shifts slightly downward.
I can't change it back to its correct position either, gimp doesn't seem to recognize it as an actual change in positioning.
I tried seeing if I'd have the same problem in a drawing program, had about the same size, and no shift happened.

I'm using an external font I downloaded, Aquifer.
I'm thinking it could be the Aquifer font itself as I had some problems with it before in gimp.

Can anyone help me?

  Removing fonts from Linux GIMP
Posted by: petedecember - 05-19-2020, 03:02 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (9)

Greetings, folks--
Does anyone have an idea on how to get rid of the extra fonts (for other alphabets, etc.) from GIMP in Linux Mint (Cinnamon)?  I have Fonts Manager and those fonts disabled but they still show up in GIMP.  Thanks in advance for any help!

Posted by: JesperGreen - 05-19-2020, 11:01 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi All.

I am pretty new at GIMP, but trying to learn.


The image below is made in Autodesk Inventor and i am trying to illustrate Foam
getting injected from a doorway sanitiser to the floor.

What function could i use to make the foam look somewhat realistic?

I have not been able to find any tutorials on that particular subject.

Thank you in advance Smile

Question Slicing/Filling Image/Canvas With Other Images Diagonally
Posted by: gimpuser - 05-18-2020, 06:18 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello. New Gimp user here, so hopefully posting in the right place. Using GIMP 2.10.14 on Mac, I would like to create a background image/wallpaper for a website similar to the attached--please see (also here is a link to the sample background image: adpartnersagency.  Edit: that is a bit too close to advertising, this the one with the three images - https://i.imgur.com/jKOLzeP.jpg - rich). So basically I am looking to:

1. Place three original images across one canvas, creating a single new image.
2. Have all three original images on the canvas / new image separated by two equidistant diagonal lines.

Any help as to the best way to do this would be much appreciated. Thank you!

  Free select problem
Posted by: qeeM - 05-18-2020, 07:18 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I don't really know anything about photoshop. But I was using the free select tool and I'm zoomed in so that I can see the individual pixels. But for some reason it keeps on going into a triangle or something.

  Specific form as cutting mask
Posted by: javitolin.ar - 05-18-2020, 04:00 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi everyone i am learning gimp (2.10.18 Linux version) usage and i have found several tutorials for the basics but not for more complex tasks. For example i have an image A which have car parked on a street and i have another image B which shows a blue caribbean sea. Let's say i select the car from the image A and want to use that car to select and cut or copy a car shaped caribbean sea and copy it in the image A instead of the car so that where originally was the car it would be a sea with the shape of that car. Is there any way to do that? Thanks in advance

Photo How to get just the outline of the text
Posted by: plasmon360 - 05-17-2020, 07:04 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi!

I am a GIMP newbie.

I was able to create an outline of the text "A" by using "Select>grow" command as shown in my attempt here. The red A is the grown 'A' and is on one separate layer and 'thin' black/original 'A' is on another layer. The red 'A'  layer is below the black 'A' layer. 

However, what I want is the subtraction of the grown text and actual text. In other words, I just need the outline and want the black 'A' region to become transparent. So I am looking for some kind of boolean operation of these two layers. 

Is there a way to do it? I would appreciate if you can point me in the right direction.

Thanks
