Posted by: trey1532 - 02-19-2020, 04:07 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi, I'm looking to add marks that are spaced equally along a path. Is that possible? I've attached an example of what I'm trying to accomplish.
Thanks!

  Brick color
Posted by: sl60 - 02-19-2020, 12:51 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I'd like to experiment with fill in the color of a line drawing of a brick wall, let's say to a red color. Is there a way to do this without having to color in each brick one at a time? How about changing from one color to another, say red to tan?

  Why my windows are not See-through?
Posted by: drpeppercan - 02-18-2020, 04:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi all,

As you will see in my attached .xcf file, I have 2 layers. The bottom layer has a landscape photo, while the top layer has an indoors photo with windows. I selected the windows and proceeded to delete them, thinking that the layer below would show through. But it won't! What gives?!!

What am I missing?

Thanks guys

  Roof tiles
Posted by: sl60 - 02-17-2020, 10:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Is there a way to create a repeating series of rectangles that would look like roof tiles or shingles (just a simple outline drawing, no texture)? The idea would be to fill up an outline drawing of a roof staggered with rows of shingles with a thickish line separating each course.

Thanks in advance!

  Multiple PDF
Posted by: Phantom - 02-17-2020, 08:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I have a 115 page PDF that has regular 20 images per page that I want to split into separate images. 
I can use plugin guides & guillotine to create multiple images from the first page, and export them using export all script. However, is there any way to avoid having to do this individually for all 115 pages - ie: is there a way to automate the process to repeat for each page?
Thanks in advance for any help
Regards
Phantom

  color sandwich text
Posted by: denzjos - 02-17-2020, 05:49 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (4)

On a website I saw some color sandwich text and here is how I made it :

- File / New (400 px X 400 px / transparent layer)
- set color foreground (here blue)
- Text Tool  (here font Ignes et Glacies Sharp Bold / 400 px)
- Type character 'G'
- Filters / Light and Shadow / Long Shadow (lenght 6.0 / angle 45.00 degrees)
- set color foreground (here white)
- Text Tool  (here font Ignes et Glacies Sharp Bold / 400 px)
- Type character 'G'
- Filters / Light and Shadow / Long Shadow (lenght 6.0 / angle 45.00 degrees)
- paste white 'G' over 'blue 'G'
- move blue 'G' 5 pixels down an 5 pixels right
- layer merge down 
- Image / Crop to Content
- Select / All
- Edit / Copy 
- File / New / (500 px X 500 px / transparent layer)
- View / Show Grid
- Paths tool
- make path from one grid intersection to one grid intersection right/down (path is 45 degrees)
- Paintbrush tool (select the 'G' brush, the one you copied) / spacing 6.0 / hardness and force 100.0 / Angle 0.00 / Aspect Ratio 0.00)
- right click mouse / Edit / Stroke Path
- select 'Stroke with a paint tool'
- the blue 'G' front character is disturbed by some white stripes and can be corrected bij selecting the 'G' (fuzzy select) and fill it (here) with blue  (any other suggestions ?)
- done

  Layer to grey scale
Posted by: meetdilip - 02-17-2020, 01:55 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Is there any method to convert a layer and its contents to grey scale ? I had to turn image > mode > grey scale to achieve that.

Colours > Desaturate > Colour to grey is not working for me. It makes the whole layer white that shades of grey.

  Edge burr while deleting background
Posted by: meetdilip - 02-17-2020, 08:22 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

The original image had a white background. I chose " select colour " option and then deleted the white. But even then there is some burr of white on the edge as seen in the attached image. Is there any method to avoid it ? It is somewhat better with Magic wand tool, but not perfect.

   

PS : Not visible with white background. Perhaps download the image and see.
