All,

Do I see correctly a change in how the primary GIMP UI behaves? I don't ever recall this happening with 2.8.x but it certainly does happen with GIMP 2.10.x (I used 2.10.8 for these screen shots).

Issue: When I open an image, GIMP will resize its primary UI window based on some attribute of the image size and often (!) I end up with the left side of the GIMP window drawn off screen.

Screen cap one -- no image open, GIMP primary window almost filling the display (sorry, this is large as I have a 2560x1440 display).

Screen cap two -- image opened and now the left side of the GIMP window is off the left edge of the desktop.

I hate this. And it happens a lot. Now to use GIMP I have to move the main GIMP window to the right so see Tools on the left. Very annoying. I've looked through the Preferences and I don't find any option that seems related to "fit image to primary display size" or something along these lines.

What am I missing?

Thanks.

From time to time, I could need some kind of an autofunction to paste multiple images with the same width together as follows:

Picture 2 is pasted to the bottom of picture 1, picture 3 to the bottom of picture 2, etc.

Hi,

Struggling to find if the xsane-plugin exists for Gimp 2.10.

I have Gimp 2.10 on Mac OS X Sierra (but can use 2.8 back also, when nedded).
Installed xsane with homebrew

But I can't find the xsane-gimp plugin.

Any clue would be warmly welcomed!

Nice forum I am trying to create a motion comic. Just am looking for a simple comic creator program like 'comic life 3' which I have which is perfect for what I am doing but the only problem with it is I want to add simple quick Gif animations (or whatever format that can be used for adding animations) but it will not allow for this :frowning: its solely only still images that can only be used. I came across 'GIMP' which am told could help me in my task here.

I just want to create basic comic formats which merely allows you to use animation formats like gifs in some of the panels.

Can gimp do this? is it capable? Thx.

I want to remove GIMP 2.10 and install 2.8 since one script i created run super fast with no random pauses on 2.8
I looked around for solutions but couldn't find any good one
or i run into all sorts of trouble when I try to configure the unzip the tar.bz2 file
Thanks in advance

Hi All,

I was watching a video by Davies Media and his gimp page look much different then mine?  I have enclosed what mine looks like, how ever I get not get to the bottom of the page where my foreground/background color is?  I was wondering is someone could show me how to achieve this?  I have watched his video for icons & themes, but it does me no good as mine tools don't look like his?  Thank you in advance for any help you can send my way, as I said I am very new to all of this.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!

I have a photo of a stone erected at the entrance to a new part of the town, about a century back. The stone is covered with grime etc and I was trying to bring the photo to a respectable form. A portion is blackened with grime and I want to select it and copy the same area from a clear portion of the photo and paste it. Can any one please enlighten me about how to get only the outline of a selection for this purpose.

Thanks in advance.

Every time I open a tool option window, it's small and only shows a few of the options.

   

I then have to manually resize the window to see all of the options.
Is there a setting that'll automatically open tool options windows in full size?

   

Hi All,

In my prev post I had eagle with wings, however one side was cut off, I would like to know how I copy, flip and paste to other side?  The wing on the right side is the full wing which I want to copy the wing and put it on the left side? can this be done? if so, can someone walk me through the steps?  I figured out how to trace the ribbon and the flag, I just want to make the wings match.  I have uploaded the photo again.  I greatly appreciate any help in this matter.  I hope I am posting to the right place for pointers and help?

Thank you

All,

After readying 10 pages from a search for "gradient" without finding something close to what I'd like, it's time to post to the Forum.

I've a landscape image. I want to simulate the affect of a neutral density filter. Steps fairly straight forward:

1. Layer 1 is base
2. Layer 2 (dup of Layer 1) is foreground edited as desired
3. Layer 3 (dup of Layer 1) is background edited as desired.
4. Layer 3 with mask; linear gradient applied to balance Layer 2 and Layer 3 across the horizon.

Applying the gradient, given how it works, creates a single, image-spanning horizonal at whatever angle, or not, I set. This is not optimal if, say, the horizon is a valley or is not flat. 

Q: is there some way of using the gradient tool such that it is not a flat gradient but follows some drawn line. For example, if I could pencil a line that follows the horizon that pass that to the gradient tool so that the gradient drawn is not "flat" but follows the non-flat horizon? I know I can actually draw a very wide brush using Hardness 025 but that does not come close to being as good as the gradient tool. I'd hoped that I might find "gradient along path" examples, but those are uniformly along the path and not across the path as I'm conceptualizing it.
