  Divide circular ring to x parts
Posted by: brandonw8715 - 01-16-2019, 03:47 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hey all,

I'm ultimately looking to cut out x percentage of a cicular ring and center it perfectly when I'm finished.

Embarrassingly I've spent hours trying to do this with no luck, and no relevant google searches that I could find either. How would one go about doing this?

  kind of paintbrush group stuck
Posted by: denzjos - 01-16-2019, 10:52 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

If I choose a kind of brush group, I can't activate another kind of group brushes.
If I clic on the grey items on the menu, they do'nt react. There is also a menu on the bottom of the brushes but it is also unclear to me how to use it. 
   

Is it a bug or is there something I miss ? Thank you for your answer in advance.

Windows 10, Gimp 2.10.8

  scripts suddenly stopped working
Posted by: dhugg - 01-15-2019, 07:04 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (11)

hello,

about a week ago my plugins started acting funny.  some plugins (ex. duplicate to another image) give me an error when executed.   other plugins have disappeared altogether (ex.heal selection).  everything else seems to be working as it did before.

i made no updates to the software except to add artwork i was currently working on.   it just started suddenly..

i have attached the error screen i get when trying to run "duplicate to another image"  as well as a screenshot of my plugins folder.

i am running GIMP 2.8.22 on windows xp.

i have not tried a reinstall yet.     

thanks in advance for any help on this.

  V poor colour ptints
Posted by: Nighteyes - 01-15-2019, 10:14 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello, I am new to Linux and Gimp.
I am trying to print photos and although they seem ok in the program they come out with
poor contrast and de-saturated red, in fact rubbish.
I have printed the same pictures in windows using photoshop pro with no problem.
The printer is an epson P50 with epson premium glossy paper. All inks full.
Has anyone any ideas?
Thanks
David

  Sharpening text in a jpg image
Posted by: PAL Thai - 01-15-2019, 06:39 AM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (2)

   
Hi!  I'm quite new to GIMP and would like to make use of its capabilities as follows:
I have a .jpg image of an outdoor sign  that when zoomed to 400% shows the white text of the sign quite blurred.  I am hoping to find the proper way to sharpen and whiten just the white text and leave everything else on the image as it is, i.e. slightly blurred.  I have attached the file in question so you can see for yourself what I am talking about.  The border and empty space surrounding the image must remain as seen so as to have the correct size for posting to a Yahoo! Page. Many thanks to those members who may help me out.

  Ubuntu - how do I update "gimptool-2.0"?
Posted by: romansbookreport - 01-13-2019, 07:30 PM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (2)

Ubuntu 18.04.


I'm trying to Install BIMP. I managed in 16.04, but in 18.04 I've had a cascade of problems.

First I had errors. Then I read in the BIMP github repository that you now need Gimp version 2.10 or greater.

I did an apt-get remove with a --purge flag of my Gimp version 2.8.22, and installed Gimp 2.10 from the software center.

But the errors persisted.

It seems that my gimptool-2.0 is still on version 2.8.22, but I can't figure out how to upgrade it. I've searched for a while. Any help?

Hi, I know this is a noobie question but I'm new here, and I don't know where I clicked, but this red and blue line appeared in the middle of my drawing. Anyone knows how to disable that, please?

  gimp-image-insert-layer: Item 'Background' (2) has already been added to an image
Posted by: Skippy - 01-12-2019, 11:08 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (4)

Hi,

I am trying to write a script which would insert an image as a layer within layers of another image.  Here is what I got so far :

Code:
(define (foobar filename)
  (let* (
; open image to add
     (inputfile (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)))
     (picture (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer inputfile)))
; open file to insert image into
     (template (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE "template.xcf" "template.xcf")))
    )
; add picture to template
    (gimp-image-insert-layer template picture 0 -1)
; flatten image
    (gimp-image-flatten template)
; couldn't get this line to work outside the next one, probably have to investigate "let" syntax
;    (drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-drawable template)))
    (file-jpeg-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE template (car (gimp-image-get-active-drawable template)) "outfile.jpg" "outfile.jpg" 0.95 0.95 1 1 "" 2 1 0 2)
     )
)


I call the script with gimp -i -b '(foobar "picture.jpg")' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'.

However it fails on gimp-image-insert-layer :


Quote:GIMP-Error: Calling error for procedure 'gimp-image-insert-layer':
Item 'Background' (2) has already been added to an image

batch command experienced an execution error:
Error: ( : 1) Procedure execution of gimp-image-insert-layer failed on invalid input arguments: Item 'Background' (2) has already been added to an image


I am struggling to understand this, the only results I get are two old threads on GF.c from which the useful replies have been removed…


What's wrong with my script ?

  ofn-layer-tiles
Posted by: Ofnuts - 01-12-2019, 09:32 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (3)

New baby. Its purpose is to make it easy to coalesce many layers into a single image (for instance, to simultaneously edit the colors of all frames in an animation) or to split a single layer into many tiles (for instance to restore the animation).

As a side effect, it can also be used to arrange layers of identical size in a gird.

ofn-layer-tiles is here.

As usual, the ZIP contains an HTML doc.
