  Select tool inconsistent
Posted by: whburling - 02-03-2020, 10:01 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

w10 latest insider preview
graphics controller:  Nvidia GForce GTX 1070

Gimp 2.10.14


if i start gimp with a new canvas
and left click on the ellipse select tool
I can create a selection and when I select the Bucket Fill tool, the selection remains intact and the region fills

Now if, while the above new filled selection exists
I left click on the rectangle select tool
and create a selection, the rectangular section is created
BUT if i then select the Bucket Fill, immediately I lose the ellipse and the rectangle.

IN ADDITION
if i start gimp with a new canvas
and left click on the rectangle select tool
I can NOT create a selection

should not both these tools work the same?

  Intersect and substract path
Posted by: CombatSaber - 02-03-2020, 12:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Tell me, please, why does the intersect delete, but not cross path, and the subtract does not subtract, but intersect path? Why're they doing the opposite?

This is the picture

And this is what it looks like in my Gimp, because the screen is too small. How to enlarge the screen?

Photo Can Gimp perform automated actions?
Posted by: maicart - 02-01-2020, 02:24 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have an avatar sheet like the attached sample and was wondering if Gimp has some kind of automated tool or if there's some sort of "trick" to cut them out altogether instead of one by one.
I need each avatar in 100x100.

  What are these purple corners in the color swashes?
Posted by: Ofnuts - 02-01-2020, 10:30 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (1)

Sometimes the color swashes in the Toolbox have purple corners:

   

These purple corners indicate  that the selected color is "out of gamut", i.e. that it cannot be accurately represented in the image. This happens:
  • in color-indexed images for any color which is not in the color map
  • in greyscale images, for any color which is not neutral gray
  • in RGB images, when the color is picked in a non-RGB color model (HSL, for instance) and has no corresponding RGB equivalent. In this case, the color selector uses the same purple color(*) in the selector widgets to indicate the out-of-gamut ranges.
(*) this color can be changed in the Preferences

  isolate color
Posted by: denzjos - 02-01-2020, 09:25 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

Isolate colors by using the Mono Mixer :
- load picture
- copy layer
- set new layer active
- set new layer mode 'Luma lighten only'
- on menu : Colours / Desaturate / Mono Mixer
- tick 'Preserve luminosity' on
- play with the red, green and blue channel multiplier sliders

A script that emulate the David Hill effect on images can be found on (tested on windows 10 / gimp 2.10.14):
