  Image Enlargement Issue
Posted by: thadc - 05-12-2020, 07:48 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello,

I am having an image enlargement problem, specifically with exported images. I have an image in the gimp (xcf) format. I enlarged the image via image->scale image. On the gimp tool it appeared to enlarge properly. However, I have to export as another format (sort of arbitrarily choosing jpg) to import into a wiki page.

Unfortunately, when I export, the image size once added to the wiki page seems to stay the same size on the wiki page as it was before I attempted to enlargement. I have tried things like exporting with a different name, but that makes no difference. I would be grateful for any ideas.

thank you

  Gimp Shear not completing
Posted by: DavidChilvers - 05-12-2020, 02:27 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Gimp 2.10.18 on Windows 10

I am trying to shear an image. I select the image (the correct layer is selected) and go through the Shear process, "Shear Selection",  selection of image using rectangle,  Clear show Image  Preview. When I click the Shear button, I get the small timer icon and then I am left with the original image unchanged (trellis) and a moving ants outline sheared. That is it. 

   

Nothing seems to actually shear the displayed image.

When I watched a you tube video, there was no special action to complete the shear.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

David

  Trouble with color exchange
Posted by: astronaut - 05-12-2020, 01:19 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I am very new to Gimp, and my goal with this image is to change the brick red to fuschia. So far, I have Indexed the Image Mode to 32 colors max, and I am having trouble with using Color Exchange. I chose the "From color" from the image itself, and I want the "To color" to be fuschia. I have tried messing with the red/green/blue thresholds, but I think I am missing something. 

Thanks in advance!

  Scaling Issue
Posted by: jillc - 05-11-2020, 08:40 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I have suddenly developed an issue with my scaling tool. When I am working in a layer, instead of scaling just that layer it scales everything at the same time, including the transparent background underneath. Is it possible that I may have altered something on the tool without realising? Be grateful for any suggestions. Thanks.

  Converting line types
Posted by: Cam_735 - 05-11-2020, 05:22 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I'm currently working on a project with road stripes, and the centerline is being exported from a program. The issue is that the line type exported is the "smooth" type (right line), and I need the pixelated type to make it work. Is there any easy way to convert the line over near perfectly? Any help is appreciated.

  Gimp leaving dots not lines.
Posted by: Lekituzl - 05-11-2020, 12:26 AM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (1)

Gimp:  Using latest update.
Tablet:  Huion Graphic Tablet Model 420

When drawing a normal stroke with pen, it leaves dots about 60% of the time, not lines.  Makes it very impossible to draw.  My tablet works in other programs like Paint and Photoshop.  Any suggestions?

  • I have uninstalled and reinstalled Gimp.
  • Reset Huion tablet settings, checked pen sensitivity.
Any suggestions for me?  =/  I just got my new Huion pen and would love to draw!
