  VERY noobie question
Posted by: pixelbean - 02-15-2019, 04:08 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Downloaded 2.10.8 GIMP started GIMPTRICKS first lesson - halfway through exercise i was looking for DELETE button

This exercise (my first) is not finished and not saved, so how to start afresh without bringing back the remnants

Sorry to waste your time over a nooby question.

  Script-fu.exe not work in 2.10
Posted by: Pat625 - 02-14-2019, 07:32 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

I have Samj ver.2 of Gimp 2.10.8.  The script-fu.exe for scrolling long .scm dialog boxes is included in the system plug in file and works.

Apparently it is not included in the regular  2.10 versions.  Many are having trouble using BRL and many other .scm  scripts because of this.

Is there any one or any way to fix the script-fu.exe to work in the regular Gimp.  I had tried using the one from Samj and putting it into the regular versions but it does not work.

Appreciate any help available to solve this problem.

Photo Trying Gimp after Photoshop Elements
Posted by: dougsmit - 02-13-2019, 11:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I just downloaded Gimp 2.10 after years of working with Photoshop, Elements and Paint Shop Pro.  Is there a resource that I can read that will point out the primary differences that might keep me from working in Gimp because I am assuming something that is completely different?  So far I have failed miserably with the first task I want to do.  I collect ancient coins.  I want to assemble a single image made from two or more photos of coins - usually just the two sides but sometimes quite a few.  In other programs you can click on images and drag them around the canvas but I have not figured out how to do this on Gimp.  Below is a sample assembled image of one coin on a plain black background.  I know Gimp can do this but I can not.  

Thanks,

  Help, how to resize brushes?
Posted by: StylinLP38 - 02-13-2019, 10:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

   
Every time I stamp down a brush and then select the resize tool it wants me to resize the entire layer. I know I must be doing something wrong but can't figure it out.

These are Photoshop .ABR  brushes. I just simply dragged and dropped them into the GIMP2.0/Brush folder.

Question 2.10 missing Felimage
Posted by: Xeyla - 02-13-2019, 08:46 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (7)

Hello, I need some help with finding a plugin/extension for 2.10.
I working through a mapping tutorial, and one of the steps calls for using the Felimage plugin. The tutorial was made for gimp 2.6, but so far I have been able to find everything else except this Felimage.

This is the part of the tutorial I am stuck on:

Quote:33. Select the LandColor layer, create new layer (Layer Fill Type: Transparency), named Adjust1. With Adjust1:
a. Set the Foreground color to your dark green (405018), background color to papyrus (f0e6be)
b. Filters -> Render ->Felimage -> Noise (size 50/50)
c. Layer mode to Hue
d. Opacity to 25%
e. Add layer mask (Channel: Coastline)

Is there an option that replaced the FelImage? And on that note, how do I fill a layer with 50% Grey? I have been doing a work-around of filling a transparent layer with grey, and then putting the opacity to 50%.

Thank you for any help.

  Script Fu top menu
Posted by: Dutchy - 02-13-2019, 08:42 AM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (2)

Hi all,

- Gimp2 version, 2.8.22

As I did in the past, I click on Filters in the top menu then on Script Flu and then on Refresh Scrips. After that script flu appears in the top menu.

Yesterday I found out that it doesn`t appear anymore, I re-installed GIMP2 but that did not fix this issue.

Is this a bug or has something changed from a certain GIMP2 version?

Screenshot attached.

I thank you in advance for your help.

  Importing colors from another gimp file
Posted by: jaca44 - 02-13-2019, 12:05 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (14)

I am trying to make some paint.net layers into gimp layers by importing the layers. The background grey layer is not a problem but when I open another layer and then try to copy a selected green color area from another ( opened as a new gimp image) bmp image, the color isn't green but grey. So if I then use the color pickers on the green image and the paint bucket on the new layer, it still stays grey?

Given that didn't work, I tried with a new image and a base layer which also needed to be grey. Selecting that grey from another image also didn't work!  Sometimes there is a note in history that I have selected the background color when I know I haven't.

In other words, what is easy in paint.net seems very difficult with Gimp. I used it a lot 5 years ago without issues so I don't know why i's an issue now!

  Antialiasing filter having no effect
Posted by: nekivud - 02-12-2019, 02:21 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I have an image and am trying to apply the antialiasing filter.  I have followed the instructions here, and have gotten the filter to work correctly using the same sample image as in the instructions.  However, when I try to use my own image the filter has no effect, i.e. nothing visibly changes.  The image originally had a transparent background, which I thought might be the issue, so I converted the image to be only black pixels on a white background (exactly like the sample image), but the filter still has no effect.

I'm brand new to GIMP, and I'd appreciate any help with this, thanks!
