  ofnuts inbetweener error ?
Posted by: denzjos - 10-29-2019, 04:21 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

With the ofnuts inbetweener I've used paths to make a drawing. The first 'inbetween' is right (blue) but the ones in red minimise to the centre and then maximise to the origin length. Is this normal or is it an error?

  I colored in an image but the outline is still there...how to get rid of it?
Posted by: marigolden - 10-29-2019, 01:32 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I drew an image with pencil, scanned that and then put it in gimp. Drew a path, deleted the background and space inside of the path and filled it with color. But somehow there are still remnants of the pencil at the edges. That didn't happen to a different image I drew and filled in though, not sure why. Anyway is there any way to get rid of the pencil remnants?

  How to resize the entirety of a pasted encircled image
Posted by: marigolden - 10-29-2019, 07:00 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I'm trying to follow this tutorial, I'm actually making a similar project where I switched out the face in a dollar bill 
https://youtu.be/ssto96FvE24?t=124

If you see it at 2:04 this is where I have trouble. The face I pasted into it is too big, how do I resize it?? I've tried the Scale tool but it just makes the exact part showing in the circle bigger or smaller. It'd be tough to scale it separately off the image because I won't know the exact size to make it to look good in the circle..any tips I'm missing?

  GIMP 2.10 onto Mac 2008
Posted by: Kirribilli - 10-29-2019, 12:36 AM - Forum: OSX - Replies (2)

Is it possible to install GIMP 2.10 onto Mac 2008 computer?
I teach a GIMP class for seniors here in Sydney, Aust. where we use Windows pcs.  
One student in the November class said she downloaded GIMP 2.10 onto her Mac 2008.  She says GIMP doesn't open.  
Does she need to install and download an earlier version of GIMP for this computer?
Any advice will be much appreciated.

  A question on animated webp images
Posted by: carmen - 10-28-2019, 07:10 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hello!
I would dearly wish to know if webp, as image format, has any issue with animations over tansparent background when the frames overlap, or the trouble comes from Gimp.
Here I append two gif animations:
    , on transparent background, and
    with the alpha channel removed from each frame
Well, I can get the second one, exported from the same xcf file, in webp--but the first one comes out a mess--some frames merged toghether, and bits of black where there should be transparency...

Thanks!

  A silly question
Posted by: carmen - 10-27-2019, 08:30 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (3)

I dare say it's silly enough. I have a piece of code in Gimp that reads:

Code:
    postfix='_xcf.webp'
    if GS: postfix='-GS' + postfix
    if crop: postfix='-crop' + postfix
    theName=name + postfix
to variously modify the name of my issue file.
It works to do what I wish, but it looks as ungainly as a five-legged mammoth.
Please, is there some more elegant way to achieve the same?
I have been reading about 'lambdas', but nothing seemed applicable...

And, if my quesion is as foolish as I feel at posting it, please disregard it... Blush

  Gimp with Surface?
Posted by: Marscaleb - 10-27-2019, 01:58 AM - Forum: Windows - No Replies

Some number of years ago, one of the newer versions of the surface came with some new API for their pen, instead of using the API that Wacom made.
This made it it so that GIMP would not work with the new surface, or rather, using a pen had the same functionality as a mouse, and didn't respond to features like pen pressure.

This was a number of years ago.  I am curious how things stand now.  Has GIMP been updated to work with this microsoft pen API?  Or has Microsoft reverted back to using the Wacom API?  Or, since the latest Surface runs windows 10, has someone developed a way to install the Wacom API onto a surface so that programs that respond to it can be used?


Or is there some other reasonable workaround that lets people use pen pressure in GIMP on a Surface?

  Stained glass pattern making
Posted by: JohnL316 - 10-26-2019, 11:08 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello,

My wife and I enjoy creating stained glass projects.

Is there a way of opening an image in GIMP and then convert it to outlines of the image?

Typically in stained glass patterns there is a 3mm line that represents the thickness of the soldered areas connecting the various glass pieces together.

say for instance, that I opened an image of a birdhouse in GIMP. 

would it be possible to have that image converted so that there are outlines of all objects within that image?


thank you all


I am using GIMP 2.10.12 running on Windows 10 and also windows 7

  Here again--re: xml parsing for svg
Posted by: carmen - 10-25-2019, 09:28 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (6)

Well, I began working on a wrapper for the default gimp-vectors-export-to-file, but
-- The option 'export all paths' doesn't work from a plugin, likely for the same reason as the bug in my previous tread
-- Anyway, I wish to export just my 'selected paths', to a single file, and not merged, but as individual paths in a single SVG file.

Well, as can be seen from the attachment, I got 'almost' there by using xml.etree.ElementTree--the trouble is I cannot get it to save to svg without mangling the file by adding a nsO: namespace to every tag.

Inkscape and Chrome can cope with the mangled file, but Gimp CANNOT--and one cannot find fault with that!

Is there some alternative to reprocessing the whole file (maybe as a string?) and removing all those spurious nsO:?

Thanks!

  G'MIC on Catalina
Posted by: ignign0kt - 10-25-2019, 08:23 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (3)

I installed the newest GIMP version and downloaded the latest G'MIC version and put it in the plug-ins folder. However I get this error when opening GIMP or running the gmic_gimp_qt binary.

“libX11.6.dylib” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

Is this just a case of Catalina compatibility?
