  create logos 3D outline error
Posted by: denzjos - 12-22-2018, 06:08 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

When I make a logo 3D outline with the default parameters, the last letter of the text is not full created :
   
   
When I change one of the paramaters of the logo 3D outline, Gimp crashed with an error and when I click on the error box, GIMP close down.
   
When I restart GIMP I get an recover choice :
   
When I recover the error I get this :
   
Is the error known ? I get no errors with the other logos.
If there is a solution, thanks in advance for any reaction

Hey everyone! I need to create a A3 image with 150 ppi but every time I try to change the size, it changes the ppi and whenever I try to change ppi it changes the size. Can you give the exact steps to follow? I'm going crazy here

  Apply and Save/Load Preset for Layer-Effects Plug-in
Posted by: trandoductin - 12-22-2018, 04:17 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - No Replies

This plug-in will allow you Apply and Save presets (for layer effects) and allow you to Load and Apply saved presets.

Presets will be saved as .txt files under your working GIMP directory (wherever you execute GIMP from).
For example, for "bevel and emboss" presets, it'll be saved under bevel_and_emboss.txt.
So you can share your preset settings with others or edit the corresponding .txt files yourself to add presets that you've gotten from others yourself.

All of the plug-in's menu locations will appear under Layer/Layer Effects/
for example for bevel and emboss: you'll find "Apply and Save Preset Bevel and Emboss" and "Load Preset Bevel and Emboss" (similarly for other layer effects) under Layer/Layer/Effects/

There is also a "Load Preset Apply All" which will apply all layer effects presets with the same preset name.
This way you can save multiple layer effects with preset name so that the "Load Preset Apply All" can apply them all in one go to act like a single effect (with multiple layer-effects).

The plug-in can be downloaded from here

  Issues with the rotating tool
Posted by: LostCoastlines - 12-22-2018, 05:57 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi there

So I am having some issues with the rotating tool. I am creating a map, and I want to rotate a layer around 10 degrees to fit in with the rest of the image. The only issue is that it rearranges and adds the pixels around on the layer image. 

I was wondering if there was a way to prevent this or a work around to it? I've tried to deal with it and edit the pixels manually, but the image seems to too distorted and rearranged for it to work.

For reference here part of the image
[Image: XZBR1f8.png]

And here is the image rotated
[Image: 2UpjB3A.png]

Any help/advice would be much appreciated! Even if you know a program I can export the map to, rotate then export back to GIMP

Thank you

  Resynthisizer Error
Posted by: levinethemachine - 12-21-2018, 08:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello.

New user.

Windows 8.1 Professional

Gimp 2.10.8

Resynthesizer give no version

The error happens on some images and not others.

The error happens at different places in an image.

When the error happens, it seems to create a new layer. This layer consists of the selected area. 

Very odd.

It would be nice to know what it is about an image/spot in an image - that causes this.

Please let me know if I can provide any useful information.

Thanks.

  Resynthisizer Heal Selection Runtime Error
Posted by: gstalnaker - 12-20-2018, 05:33 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (12)

I'm using GIMP 2.10.8 (updated because of this issue) on Windows 10 Home Edition, with the 64-bit version of the Resynthesizer plugins/execs. I've used this plugin very frequently in the past with GIMP 2.8.x for fixing damaged BW images (family photos from the 50s/60s). My normal process for these RGB, 16-bit grayscale images is to:

  1. use Wavelet Decompose to create detail layers
  2. dup a detail layer
  3. use Levels to enhance the damage on the dupped layer
  4. paint over the damage on the dupped layer with color X
  5. select by color X
  6. click on the original detail layer so selection applies to it
  7. run Heal Selection.
Now when I do this the Heal Selection process throws an error (see attached image): "RuntimeError: The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?"
I dimly recall having an issue like this in the past. I definitely have the right layer selected and so far as I know (!) there are only non-transparent pixels in the select. The layer after decomposition is done is in mode Grain Merge. That was in the past no issue.

Anyone with any ideas? I'm stumped.

  few issues with 2.10.8
Posted by: daveo132 - 12-19-2018, 08:51 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi,

I'm band new to the forum.
I'm having a few issues with 2.10.8.

Opening files from within GIMP takes a very long time.  As in just opening the dialog boxes takes 60/90+.
I'm also having issues trying to get my XP Pen graphics tablet to work.  It's recognised but will not work in GIMP.  when i go to use it on the canvas nothing happens and then the mouse stops being able to paint.
I've followed every guide I can find but nothing seems to work.

Any tips?

PC is Ryzen 1800x, 16GB RAM Win10 x64

EDIT:
I forgot to mention that the slow running may be related to this searching for an A:\ bug that i've seen.  Unfortunately by BIOS has no option to disable the legacy floppy drive support.
Maybe similar to this?

ANOTHER EDIT:
This is a fresh win10 install.

  remove glasses glare
Posted by: jaha - 12-18-2018, 04:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi guys, I'm new and this is my first post. I would like to remove the glasses glare from a picture using GIMP. I am a beginner in GIMP and I tried using the healing tool and cloning but neither seems to work well but I may be doing this wrong. I also have a similar picture where I don't have the glare as bad and I was trying to clone using this picture but it doesn't look natural. I have glasses glare in a lot of pictures so it'd be useful to know how to remove the glare for future use too.

  Other software unable to display .tif files created by GIMP
Posted by: ajax - 12-17-2018, 10:40 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (10)

Canon supplies software that can be used to edit photos produced by Canon cameras.  Since GIMP does not support the development of raw files this software performs a necessary function, even, for those of us who desire using GIMP for lots of our editing work.  This Canon software also provides some powerful printing capability that is quite lacking in GIMP.  However, it turns out that files created by GIMP in .tif format cannot be processed by the Canon software.

While I'm sure this is the kind of problem that temps everyone to want to blame the other guy, there is something amiss here.  When it comes to GIMP, I'm not aware of any other software that cannot handle the same files that Canon Digital Photography Professional (DPP) is having a problem with.  Whereas DPP is handling files produced by other programs such as Rawtherapee without any difficulty.  In the case of GIMP it doesn't seem to matter whether problem files are of 8 or 16 bit precision.

Any ideas on what is going on here?
