Creating a Macro For Stroke Selection [Solved!] |

Hi All,
I'm new to this forum and GIMP 2.10 in general. So I'm trying to convert images into outlines for laser cutting. And the best way I found is a combination of fuzzy tool+ stroke selection and color exchanging. However, the clicking for stroke selection is a bit too much (edit->stroke selection->stroke) since I need to repeat the process over 100+ times. I was wondering if there is a way to map (edit->stroke selection->stroke) to a key on my keyboard.
Thanks!

JPEG data when exporting |

Hi,
I'm using 2.10.8 on Windows 10.
Any JPEG file generated by my Canon EOS 5D Mark II or by a Canon utility from a RAW file is correctly displayed by my LG OLED television..
If I open one of these files with GIMP and export it without any modification then the TV set will be consider it as corrupted.
I submitted the problem to LG support team and they suggested that it was GIMP fault.
I suspect that some JPEG parameter is altered or missing when exporting. I tried various export settings but couln't fix the problem.
Any suggestion?

Gradient along an arbitrary selection. |

Hi All,
Image a letter 'S'.
Or a 'C', for that matter.
Can anybody suggest a sensible way to fill the shape with a linear-style gradient, starting at one end and shading to the other?
A purely linear gradient places the end points of the gradient at the furthest extents of the shape, leaving incorrectly coloured parts at the tips of the shape; 'shaped' gradients fill from the edges to the middle; spiral, conical and radial gradients also fail to fit the bill.
Warp transformation and Whirl and Pinch filter make interesting effects if you start with a box filled with a linear gradient, but change the width and length of the box in a way I haven't managed to control, and don't get me started about Cage Transform.
Am I simply asking too much of Gimp in its current incarnation, or can you suggest the blindingly obvious solution that's right under my nose but will need a good night's sleep to work out, otherwise?

PDB update to meet current Gimp |

Hi all.
Is anyone aware of any update to PDB to have interfaces to the new (GEGL) functions in Gimp?
I browsed Gimp Roadmap and didn't find any info about, unless this title "Redesign wire protocol for scripts/plug-ins" is the subject, but even in this case that title is inserted in the roadmap after Gimp 3.2.
Thanks

Exported images darker than originals |

Hi,
I'm using GIMP 2.10 for astroimage processing. When I export the final image as tif or png, and reopen in Windows (7) next to the original image in GIMP, it appears significantly darker. I tried to no avail:
Reducing bit depth and switching between linear and perceptive mode.
Is this a bug or a feature? How can I save my images "as is"? Never had this problem with 2.8.
Any help would be very much appreciated!
Thanks and best regards,
Pat

Marketing say GIMP won't work for our organisation |

Hi folks
I'm looking at how we can use GIMP for some of our departments who need to do some basic image manipulation. Currently we have a Marketing and Digital team who use Adobe products to produce templates for invitations to our events. These are then sent to individual departments running the various events. The events departments then edit the invitations a bit before sending them out. As the templates are being produced in Adobe, we are now getting constant requests for new Adobe licences from these other departments and our costs are spiraling!
I asked the question of our Marketing and Digital team about if there was anything that would prevent these other departments from using GIMP, bearing in mind that they would only need to make minor edits. The Marketing and Digital team would still stay on Adobe, since that's what they've worked in for years, plus they work with various external parties who all use Adobe. I can live with that. There's always a lot of resistance to any kind of change at my organisation, so I was expecting a negative response. They fed back the below:
Quote:GIMP is a cutdown Photoshop alternative so offers functionality for pixel based raster image manipulation. It doesn’t, however, offer accurate colour matching/correction or the range of file outputs that we’d need as standard for digital invitations or print production. If, for example, I had a supporter’s vector logo, I’d have to convert it to an SVG to open it in GIMP.
I don't know a whole lot about GIMP or photo editing in general. My question is, is the above accurate? Are there workarounds, or plugins that would mitigate this? I'm meeting with the Marketing and Digital team on Friday to discuss and I'd like to have some more insight before I do. In my view, surely GIMP will meet most of the requirements for the small changes that the other departments make?
