  Make Background transparency
Posted by: DaPoeschl - 08-06-2019, 05:30 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello Guys,

I just started working with Gimp and it's pretty easy - so far. But i got a small Rpobnelm: I Have a layour with only black strips (about 2%) and a white Background. But this Background should be transparency, not white.
According to the Manual, i used the "Color to Alpha" Tool (I don't know, how is called in english. I hope, u understand). So i grapped the color, that's just "ffffff", got the Transaprency Threshold to 0,000 and the opacity threshold to 1,000. But it doesn't work.
What can i do about that?

Have a nice day,
Daniel

  Need to rotate image right 90
Posted by: Janitor - 08-04-2019, 07:31 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I need to rotate this line drawing of a Brown Bess muzzle loader 90 degrees to the right. I haven't been able to get a background to fit the new dimensions. A little baffled, even manually typing the letters and the image stubbornly stays to the original.

  wrapping text round an invisible pipe
Posted by: MikeHersee - 08-04-2019, 07:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi, I've looked at several videos that describe how to distort text in different ways, but none have tried to achieve what I want: As if you have an invisible, horizontal, pipe that you've stuck a text label to, and then looked at it off to one side so you can see the curve in the text. In other words, so that the text is pulled sideways to the right in the middle of each character, as if it was stuck to the side of a pipe.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Mike Hersee


I've just realised an error - it's showing as Gimp version 2.8, which I entered because it was the one I've used most, but I've now got 2.10.12. I can't see how to change that in my profile.

  Missing toggle on Dodge/Burn tool in 2.12
Posted by: Ritergeek - 08-04-2019, 04:18 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

In previous versions of GIMP, I've been able to toggle between dodging and burning with the down arrow by Mode at the top of Tool Options. Since upgrading to 2.12 the entire Mode line is grayed out and the arrow does nothing. I'm stuck in Dodge mode. All other functions perform normally.

If this is a bug, how do I report it?

  Help making good maps in Gimp ?
Posted by: RorrKonn - 08-04-2019, 04:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

[attachment=3049][attachment=3049]If I paint a texture in Gimp. Save 8 bit I get the odd lines,
but if I save in 32 bit I do not get the odd lines.
But if I take the 32 bit gimp image and make maps with Bounding Box Materialize. I get the odd lines again.

So I'm thinking I'm not saving the Gimp image correctly.
Does anyone know how to make textures correctly in Gimp ? or any app ?
I've been fighting with this for days n not really sure where to ask this.
but there has to be a answer some where.
Thanks for any and all help

  Where is icon to start gimp when installed with macports
Posted by: rbmisc - 08-02-2019, 02:24 AM - Forum: OSX - Replies (2)

I have installed gimp 2.10 with macports because I was unable to get it to run from the gimp 2.10 download. 

Now that it has been installed by macports, how can I run it by selecting it in my Applications file?  I have to open terminal and enter gimp on the command line to get it to run at this time.

I have macOS Mojave 10.14.6.

  grey box
Posted by: insulin junky - 08-02-2019, 12:08 AM - Forum: OSX - Replies (3)

I have a grey box with the text 'Tool Options' at the top left of my screen which is preventing me from using the main menu. i.e. I can't get to the 'save as' function on my mac. (I'm trying to save as a png..)

  Top layer leaving a line from the original photo
Posted by: Janitor - 08-01-2019, 06:12 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

So I have used the Paths tool to select the girl out of a very cluttered back ground, then Select From Path, then Cut.

I pasted her into a New Layer, selected Anchor, and Deleted the old layer.

This is the problem that arises. There is a rectangular border of the photo she was cropped from that appears on any layer the Girl is put on.

How do I get rid of that rectangle, and how do I prevent that from happening again?

Bug brushes interface on the right side?
Posted by: Human3 - 07-31-2019, 07:47 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I can not find a tutorial how to fix the brushes pane, on the right side of the screen.  It shows a drop down list at the top and at the bottom.  right now none of my brushes show up there so i cannot pick them.  How on earth does that work?  I tried googling and all i get is how to add brushes etc.

not how to use that pane!  i have clicked all of them on both lists and still nothing.  i have done them top and not bottom and vise versa.   i have them all off and still nothing.  

Ok i got all the brushes back. Now can someone please explain the filter at the bottom of the pane?  how do you use that one?  thank you very much.
