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?

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. 

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

Hello,
       Just about ready to uninstall this program.

       Why does the size of my brush change to some random number without any input from me?

      

Hi
I am a complete noob to GIMP so please be gentle   
I have a PNG file that shows the outline of a weapon in black and I would like to edit this and change the outline to blue.

How do I do this in GIMP?

I've attached the original PNG image.

Thanks in advance

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.)

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?"

Greetings Gimp Users,

I'm a total beginner with Gimp and am completely stumped. I combined two images by layering one over the other. I zoomed in to one layer and touched up some details with the clone tool. When I zoomed back out, the whole image (both layers) is covered in black dots. An example of what I mean by "black dots" is attached. Why did this happen? I can't figure out how to undo it so I want to avoid doing it again. Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Dank
