  Suddenly copy changes brush
Posted by: marty39 - 01-11-2019, 01:42 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (1)

I've been using Gimp 2.8.14p2 (January 9, 2015) for at least the last three months on a Mac running El Capitan. A few weeks ago it started doing something new, though I gather it's what's supposed to happen.


Until a week or so ago, I could copy and paste without changing the brush in any of the tool options. Now when I copy and paste something I have to change the brush from "clipboard" back to the circular shape I had before.

When I copy something from an image, I want to paste it, not change the brush. I want to keep the brush I had.

What changed, and how can I change it back?

  Display Size vs Pixel Size Problems
Posted by: blinkinhek - 01-10-2019, 06:12 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I have recently moved to a Surface Pro. with it's fairly high res screen BUT the icons are not really legible or usable I can adjust some in settings BUT the Tool options dialog do not change.  Windows does provide a scaling factor in its settings, which helps some programs (many of which automatically scale their icons, menus, etc) but GIMP seems to ignore it.
Can anyone help?

TIA

  Handpainted effect
Posted by: Natrixx - 01-10-2019, 07:05 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hiya! I have an ordinary, square border in Gimp, that I'd like to give a handpainted touch, something like the attached picture. Not a big problem, I suppose, but I would love to hear your thoughts/tips on how I could achieve that.

bw,

Mike

  How to get image colors closter together?
Posted by: Acoustic - 01-10-2019, 05:36 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

To preface, I am colorblind. So many colors blend together for me, so I need some assistance on this. Working on a terrain and I have 2 different sets of textures, one far away and one close. They both need to be really similar in color. I created a palette from one and applied it to the other, but I am not sure if they are still close enough. If someone could get them closer (or tell me that they are as close as they'll get, as I am not sure) and tell me what steps you took, so I can replicate on the other textures. Or any general advice, as well. Thanks.

  I lost the patterns!
Posted by: petedecember - 01-08-2019, 08:24 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Greetings--
(I am using GIMP 2.10)  Somehow I lost the patterns in the box down at the lower right corner box.  All I have now there is burlap.  I didn't delete them, they just are no longer showing.  Does anyone have an idea what I did?  Thanks in advance.

  Continuous Lines from Isolated Splotches
Posted by: dozerman - 01-08-2019, 02:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Pic related was extracted from an image of a fossil by using wavelet decompose and the selection tool. I want the eventual image to be a kind of stencil of the skeleton's outline. I'm almost to where I want to be, but I can't figure out how to connect all of the disparate splotches into one continuous outline without doing it manually. 

I've already tried messing with the threshold on the select tool without much luck.
