  Mathmap
Posted by: Janno - 06-30-2018, 08:14 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (6)

I did a freshinstall of GIMP 2.10

When starting up I do get a couple of warnings about missing DDL's, which seems to be related to Mathmap.exe

Ignoring these messages is not a problem, but it's annoying.

Is there a solution?

  Permanent blue lines after path tool?
Posted by: Folks - 06-30-2018, 12:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Howdy,

I was working on a fantasy map just now and used the "text along path" tool. It seems to have worked like intended, except that there are now blue lines on the image that  I can't get rid of. They are not part of any layer (I tried turning all of them off and they were still there). Furthermore, if the image is exported the lines are not there.

Anyone know what this is and how to get rid of them? Thanks in advance!

  rectangular aspect ratio
Posted by: gimp-artist - 06-30-2018, 09:27 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I downloaded a picture, which is too big. I selected only what I needed by using rectangular tool. I wanted the selected part to be a square. I adjusted the tool option to aspect ratio. Then I clicked down a certain point with the mouse, and pressed shift button on keyboard while dragging my mouse. I had successfully selected a square. I copied the selection, and pasted it in a new image. I pressed "shift+t" for reducing the pasted floating layer.

Then here is my issue. The scale tool doesn't recognize the initial object that needs to be reduced as a square. It is a rectangular with different ratio. I think I copied a perfect square. Then why do I have a rectangular after I pasted it on another image?

  New Drop-Shadow Tool - Create New Layer?
Posted by: Cyrus - 06-30-2018, 03:23 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (19)

One of the reasons I keep using the Legacy Drop-Shadow Tool is because it creates a new Layer with the drop-shadow, instead of what this new one does, which it just edits the existing Layer.

But perhaps I am missing something. Is there a way for the new Drop-Shadow Tool to make New Layers upon creation?

Thank you

  layer mode in folder
Posted by: gimp-artist - 06-30-2018, 01:21 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

I created many layers, it is messy. I organized by creating folders. Layer modes in folders seem to affect only layers in the same folder. How do I make the layer modes to affect layers outside the folder?

In particular, I have a layer of which layer mode is screen in a folder. The layer has a lens flare with black background color. When the layer is not in the folder the layer screens with background images well. However the layer is in the folder, The whole image background color becomes black since the screen mode doesn't work for the rest of background images.

How do I solve this issue?

On a full painted layer smudge tools works but on a partly painted layer if I go off the paint and back on to the paint it turns the paint all white ?

  Bimp and Exposure, where is it?
Posted by: mholder - 06-28-2018, 02:18 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (12)

A new color adjustment in 2.10 is exposure, found in Colors->Exposure.

I want to use Bimp to batch process a bunch of images add add exposure.  I can't seem to find the procedure in Bimp.  Does anyone know what it is called or how to add exposure as a procedure in Bimp?

  How to replace a background - not cutting out
Posted by: enginestar - 06-27-2018, 10:15 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (2)

Say I take pictures of an object on a 1 color background...
Is it possible to just get rid of that color?
Say cream or green or black?

Maybe roughly isolate the object and then apply a tool to turn the background to be white?

Thanks.
