  Fit Gimp 2.10 in smaller computer
Posted by: rich2005 - 05-28-2018, 12:52 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

Some tips on setting up Gimp 2.10 on a smaller computer. There are plenty laptops around with 'wxga' 1366x768 px displays.

The demo uses Windows 10, also applicable to Windows 7 and Linux

1. Initial setup of theme and icon theme.
2. Setting up the toolbox icons, hiding icons, moving icons
3. Adjust the Gimp window to fit display.
4. A new default canvas size.

Video demo 7 minutes

Edit: For potential Gimp users who have not already installed Gimp 2.10 a quick demo

  Path - path to selection
Posted by: gimp-artist - 05-28-2018, 12:04 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

   
In my experience, ctrl works as intersection, and ctrl+shift works as subtraction.
Is it only me having this feature?

  GIMP 2.10 - Transformation Dialog Box
Posted by: Cyrus - 05-28-2018, 04:56 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (2)

I have been using 2.10 for a week or so, and one thing has started to bother me.

The Transformation tools work very well, don't get me wrong. But for whatever reason, it seems that we have decided to take away the New Window/Dialog Box(which had buttons, sliders, and measuring aspect of the Transformation) and leave ourselves to "guessing" the amount of Transformation a layer takes, compared to previous versions of the software.

For instance, when Rotating a layer, there would be a handy indicator in a new Window telling me how much it has Rotated (by how many degrees). I cannot find this feature in the new version. Example included as an Attachment.

Also, there is no prompt for "OKing" the Transformation anymore. Now, it seems I must select a new Tool after performing the Transformation, and it just happens automatically.


I do not like these changes... is there a way to revert them in this new version, or an option to bring back the Window/Dialog Box?

  Slowness GIMP 2.10 x WINDOWS 10 64bits
Posted by: Maria - 05-26-2018, 09:52 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (13)

I've used GIMP 2.8 until 5/25/2018. I upgraded to GIMP 2.10 to try to get agile in performing simple tasks like opening images, exporting, curing selection ... But the slowness persists. Until 5/23/2018 to open an image in GIMP, export, sign image, all this was instantaneous. But, now there is a nuisance of "lag" of several seconds for each task, both in GIMP 2.8, as it continues to occur with the new version 2.10 ...

  what is Force ?
Posted by: Espermaschine - 05-26-2018, 09:07 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (1)

I asked this in another thread, but i think i have an idea what it does.

Photoshop has something called 'Flow'. Its how much "ink" a drawing tool produces with one stroke.
The difference between Flow and Opacity is that when you paint with 50% Opacity, it doesnt build up (unlike Flow).

I get the same behaviour from Force: the lower i set it, the more transparent the stroke becomes, and it builds up with several strokes on top of each other.

What i dont understand, is why the default is 50....
and why is it greyed out for the Pencil Tool ?

Photo Gimp 2.10 Type text on a circle path
Posted by: Ricardo G. Manrique - 05-26-2018, 07:50 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (4)

Hello everyone,
I am new to Gimp. I have the version 2.10 installed in my Windows 10 PC.
My text, along a circle path, comes always Right to Left, so I can only place the text at the bottom of the circle only
[the videos on You Tube always shows "text along Path"  from Left to Right and at the top portion of the circle]

The [modified] instructions i am following, from one of the videos on You Tube (version previous to Gimp 2.10) is as follows

1. Trace Circle & Type something
2. To path and Text along the path
------------------------------------------
3. Layers > New Layer > Transparency > OK
4. Click Selection Layer Path > Click Flip Tool > Vertical
5. Type something >< Text along Path
6. Delete [horizontal] text layers on canvas
7. On Select Menu > None
8. Rotate both text - but one is always upside down!

I have reinstalled Gimp 2.10 a couple of times but the problem persist. 

Thank you for your attn and time in helping me.
