Photo Whitlisting file inputs
Posted by: radzo73 - 12-22-2019, 03:43 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (2)

Hey,
I have a script that takes all the files in a folder, crops them, and exports them. However, it tries to take things in that folder that aren't images (text files, pesky invisible metadata files) and tries to edit them, which throws an error. How do I fix that?

  How to change splash screens (and how to get offline Help working)?
Posted by: Ed Ferris - 12-22-2019, 03:43 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Using 2.10.12 under Ubuntu.
In 2.8, one placed pictures in home/.gimp-2.8/splashes.  I tried renaming the folder as .gimp-2.10 but GIMP did not use the images.
If I could get the offline Help to open, I might be able to find how to change the splash screen, but it keeps trying to load something off the Internet which is not allowed by the AppArmor settings.  The help files are there, somewhere.  I saw them once, down about eight levels of folders, and they were all XML.  I don't have an XML viewer.
Is there a way to get GIMP to find and use them?
If not, is there a PDF of the 2.10.12 offline help?
If not, how do I get GIMP to use different splash screens?

  No tourists on photo
Posted by: denzjos - 12-21-2019, 09:09 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (7)

If one try to take a clean photo from old buidings, people or cars appear in front of the lens. The solution is to take a few pictures with the same viewpoint (tripod) with an interval of a few seconds. Then load the photos in gimp as layers, make a mask on each layer and wipe the unwanted out. A few years ago I dit it with PS but it is the same with gimp.

Hi. I've seen something on Instagram I want to create in GIMP. It's a gig photo. It's one image of a person fading in slowly then out again. Can this be done in GIMP? If so, how? I do use GIMP and have done for a while and have created GIFs before. Thank you

  Fresh install of 2.10.14 dies on startup with Access Violation
Posted by: mattheere - 12-20-2019, 08:49 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (2)

64-bit Windows 10 fully updated as of today, including latest nVidia drivers for the GTX970 direct from nVidia.
Fresh (1st time ever for this PC) install of Gimp 2.10.14 using setup-2 (downloaded from here: https://download.gimp.org/mirror/pub/gim...etup-2.exe)

Installed for "All Users" so C:\Program Files
Took all the install defaults
Install completes without error

Try to run Gimp - nothing happens.  No error.  Nothing.
Launch the command line as admin and try to run gimp-console - I get this:
Exception code=0xc0000005 flags=0x0 at 0x00007FFD5A5072A6. Access violation - attempting to write data at address 0x00000E3800001FA0
Exception code=0xc0000005 flags=0x0 at 0x00007FFD5A5072A6. Access violation - attempting to write data at address 0x00000E3800001FA0

Exception code=0xc0000005 flags=0x0 at 0x00007FFD5A5072A6

I purged Gimp and tried it with a minimal install (Gimp, runtime, engine for GTK+, and debug symbols only).  No difference.
Tried installing to E:\ - no difference.

Was getting ready to drop back to a previous version/installer, but thought I'd post and see if anyone knows what's up.

  arakne path shape creator 8
Posted by: rich2005 - 12-20-2019, 06:09 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

Blighty mentioned in https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Rotate...4#pid16204 that arakne-path-shape-creator8 was not working with current Windows Gimp.

There is / was a fix or this. Pulled out of my archive and using Win 10 (VM) / latest Gimp 2.10.14

Attached. 
Unzip, and put the whole folder in your Gimp user profile plug-ins C:\Users\"yourname"\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins

   

Find it in Filters -> Path -> Path Shape Creator...

Best used inside a selection.

  Photo Light painting within Gimp
Posted by: bob490 - 12-20-2019, 12:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

@page { margin: 2cm } p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 115% }
Hi All, I am looking for Tips/Help regarding Gimp navigation/layers. I have recently migrated from Windows to Linux as my preferred OS. I had been using the Adobe LR PS for my photo editing within the windows environment an option that is now unavailable to me in Linux.
I am looking to duplicate a technique I used in LR where I stacked photos as layers they could then be blended by using a brush I could expose the lower image (or part of) in my stack. The stacked photos are all of the same composition (night photography) but several photos were taken using a long exposure. Where some exposures I had performed some light painting to an object in the foreground. Hope that makes sense?
Can this technique be performed or duplicated with Gimp?

  GRID-Layout-Support: does GIMP support the work ?
Posted by: sayhello - 12-20-2019, 12:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

dear community


The grid-layout-system was first used to arrange some kind of text, images or even handwriting on a sheet of paper and then many many years later in publishing to organize the layout of printed pages or on pictures.

Given that the printed page and the virtual page (like a wordpress-page) have much in common, it should come as no surprise that we also use it in web and app design. For all this i need a GIMP tool to achieve the intended work.


The question is: does GIMP have any plugin that covers that kind of layout-work: I want to creating a grid system for the virtual page – 
Well i guess that this is a little more complex than for the physical page – browsers handle information differently, and screens vary in size. but happily, however, the principle remains the same. 

Again: does GIMP have any plugin that support the Grid as a Design Principle?

  Changing grid preferences doesn't do anything
Posted by: marigolden - 12-19-2019, 10:27 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I went to view>and selected grid to better compare the placement of 2 items. The mesh was too close though. So I went to Edit>Preferences>Default grid and tried different numbers in the spacing setting and pressed ok after each try. The grid continues to look the same! What am I doing wrong?
