  Exchanging Colours
Posted by: pipp44 - 08-03-2018, 11:56 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (9)

I have a CAD programme, I would like to recolour the GUI to submit to the company as a suggestion for a new colour scheme.

My question is : Is it possible to "sample" a particular colour on the GUI and then ask GIMP to recoulor all of that selected colour to the colour that I want to change it to ?

At the moment the only way I can think of would be to draw rectangles, ellipses, circles etc and then use the bucket tool to fill in the drawn rectangles etc.

Thanks in advance

  Gimp 2.8 & 2.10 startup claiming files are missing, but still works
Posted by: bullspit - 08-03-2018, 12:44 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (1)

I figured since I've decided to pick up graphic design again that I'd post this annoying bug. I'm not sure why, but everytime I install Gimp I keep seeing how it says certain filters & dll files are missing or won't open, but the program as a whole still works. My main reason for posting this is to hopefully get rid of this from happening everytime it starts up so I don't have to leave the application all day without having to click away at 30 error windows.

  [RESOLVED] Disable automatic update of GIMP
Posted by: eccsup - 08-02-2018, 12:39 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (4)

Hello,

Being generally quite resourceful with a computer, I usually post only as a last resort... but 'im unable to find a solution to my problem. I guess I'm the only one in this situation. 

I explain: I have been using the GIMP software to edit images of all kinds for a few years now, and for a few months, the official version 2.10 has been released. However, I find this version awful, and not only from an aesthetic point of view (otherwise I would go with it), but also functional. For example, I can no longer copy and paste an image from the clipboard into my layers, resizing an image changes its color, etc...

I've obviously reverted immediatly to version 2.8.22, which perfectly satisfies my needs, and that should be the end of my story, but... GIMP felt obliged to integrate an automatic update in its software. So at every startup, i have to uninstall the current version of gimp, and reinstall the version 2.8.22. which is quite boring in the end...

At the moment, I have tried different solutions: 

1. Look in the app settings.... obviously, there was nothing (Thanks GIMP) 
2. Searching the entirely registry from... nothing to disable updates either 
3. Search in all subfolders stamped GIMP to look for an Updater... nothing 
4. Search among programs that run at startup... nothing either 
5. Blocking access to sourceforge.net/projects/gimp and gimp.sourceforge.net in the host file, where the updates seem to come from... but it didn't work either. 

If someone has a solution to prevent the auto update, I confess that it will definitely help me, because I do not know what to do anymore.


My apologize, GIMP, i just found the solution and it was not your fault.

My antivirus (VIPRE) was automatically looking for installed software updates, and systematically installed the new version, without prompt or anything.

Post Resolved!

  Brush Lag
Posted by: GSC - 08-02-2018, 04:02 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hey I have a question for more knowledgable digital artists about brush lag in GIMP 
I am working in GIMP right now to paint and I had done a few small designs at 1.5"x1.5" with GIMP running perfectly. However when I opened a 8.5"x11" canvas and used brushes with sizes in the hundreds instead of the teens I got extreme brush lag when I applied pressure with only size and opacity being based on pressure.
I have 16GB of ram and a 3.8Hz CPU. 
Should I just do smaller art or is there something I can do to fix this?


Thanks!

  Mosaic Average Fill
Posted by: yellek - 08-01-2018, 04:46 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (4)

The effect I want is to pixelise an image based on mosaic tiles. I can do this manually using a separate mosaic layer, selections and ofn-average-fill (https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-to...s/scripts/) however this is time consuming. Any ideas on a better way to do this?

  How Do I Make All of the Segments of a Gradient Have Equal Widths?
Posted by: abajan - 08-01-2018, 03:47 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I just made a gradient having eight (8) segments, but I want only seven (7) because the gradient consists of the colors of the rainbow. The problem is, whenever I delete the last segment, the color that was on its left, fills the void, resulting in it being twice the width of the other colors in the gradient. How do I make all the colors have exactly equal widths?

  Script-fu resize images in directory
Posted by: LightTunnelEtc - 07-31-2018, 08:11 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (5)

Hello all!  First post here so I hope this make sense.

I am trying to resize images to the highest multiple of 4 (unless it already is a multiple of 4).

My script runs without any errors but does absolutely nothing to the images in the directory.
I tested out individual elements of the script in the GIMP console (or whatever it is called) and the ones I could test work fine.

I feel like I'm missing something simple.

Any ideas?  The script is below. 

Code:
; example pattern form because it starts in C: "/Users/Etc/*.png"

(script-fu-register
           "script-fu-resize-4"                        ;func name
           "Resize To Multiple Of 4"                                  ;menu label
           "Rounds Canvas Size To Nearest Multiple Of 4" ;description
           "Me"                             ;author
           "copyright 2018, Me"                ;copyright notice    
           "May 30, 2018"                          ;date created
           ""                     ;image type that the script works on
           SF-STRING      "Folder Pattern"          "/*.png"  
           
 )
(script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-resize-4" "<Image>/File")
(define (script-fu-resize-4 pattern)
    (let*
        (
            (filelist (cadr (file-glob pattern 1)))
        )
        (while (not (null? filelist))
            (let*
                (    ; variables
                    (filename (car filelist))
                    (image (car (gimp-file-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE filename filename)) )
                    (drawable (car (gimp-image-get-active-layer image)) )
                    (width (car (gimp-image-width image)) )
                    (height (car (gimp-image-height image)) )
                )
                
                ; statements
                
                (set! width  (* 4 (ceiling (/ width  4))) )
                (set! height (* 4 (ceiling (/ height 4))) )
                (set! width  (inexact->exact width)  )
                (set! height (inexact->exact height) )
                (gimp-image-resize image width height 0 0)
                (gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable filename filename)
                (gimp-image-delete image)
            )
            
            ;move to next file in folder
            (set! filelist (cdr filelist))
        )

  Measurement tool
Posted by: al.da.drone - 07-31-2018, 02:10 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi there I wonder if someone  would be kind enough to answer this question for me as I am struggling to get the hang of Gimp.

I am sure there is another way of doing this, however I have just come across the measuring tool so I can measure things in order to get everything in proportion like text..So i am measuring a line with the measuring tool however it seems that I can only measure one line at a time rather than have multiple lines. You must be able to get multiple lines ?

Sorry for asking a silly question...
