  Cannot choose paper size when printing
Posted by: ajax - 06-22-2018, 07:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

Using GIMP 2.10.2 on Windows.

I've edited an image and set the "Print Size" to 5x7 with the intention of printing on 5x7 paper.  I select "File>Print" and then choose "Preferences" which invokes the setup options for my printer, which is Canon Pixma Pro-100, driver.  Using these setup options I choose 5x7 for the paper size.  Then when the driver is invoked (i.e., "Print" is selected), where I've asked for a preview during the setup, the paper size is now specified 8.5x11 and the preview shows the 5x7 picture to be printed in the upper left corner of the page.

I think this is a pretty straightforward, commonly used, interface that I'm using correctly.  If not what did I miss?  If so, what about fixing GIMP.

  ofn-stroke-visible-paths problem
Posted by: Espermaschine - 06-22-2018, 04:26 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (5)

Im trying to replicate this effect with ofnuts' script.

My paths go from biggest on top, to smallest at the bottom.
I've got a gradient set up, yellow is at the beginning, going to red, to blue, to white at the end.

When i execute the script, with parameters:

From Gradient, Stroke and Multiple Layers, i get a bunch of single colour filled layers.
Yellow is at the bottom and not on the top....

When i execute the script with parameters:
From Gradient, Stroke and Single Layer, i get everything merged as expected, but the colours are again with yellow at the bottom.
Reversing the gradient doesnt change that.

So i edited the gradient and flipped it. Now it strokes the paths in the expected way, but i need multiple layers and that is still broken.
I dont understand why the script strokes the paths from bottom to top and why it doesnt accept reversing the gradient in the Tool Options (btw, this is all in Gimp 2.8).
It seems it strokes the paths in the order of the pathname (which has got numbers), but thats not how a 3D effect works.

  Image Scaling Interpolation options
Posted by: fotofill1969 - 06-21-2018, 09:40 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (6)

1) Using Gimp 2.10.2  2) Mint 18.3
 
With Gimp 2.8 I had the option of selecting "Sinc Lanczos2" as the interpolation policy under "Image/Scale Image."
With Gimp 2.10 the options are "None," "Linear," Cubic," "NoHalo," and "LoHalo."  "Sinc (Lanczos3)" as recommended on the Gimp website is not offered as an option. I have been using "NoHalo" which seems to be OK, but I'd feel more comfortable using the Sinc (Lanczos3) because of the recommendation. Is there a way to install that profile or policy?

  Color change like night mode
Posted by: Defacta - 06-21-2018, 08:51 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hello,

I am stuck on a particular problem. I am under Windows and on night I use SunsetScreen to switch my screen to the night mode.

And I have images that I prefer when this tool is running (with default values (Sunset colour (K) 4100)  but I can't reproduce this color change on Gimp.

I know the default tool of Gimp: Colors -> Color Temperature but I just can't reproduce the same result of the tool Sunset colour. Or the same result of my iPhone night mode.

Would you have an idea?

Thanks for any help,
Vincent.

  Disable Flip & Rotate?
Posted by: cbh1388 - 06-21-2018, 08:09 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (9)

I was wondering if there's any way to disable Flip & Rotate or at the very least unmap it from shift + middle mouse button drag? I don't see it anywhere in Keyboard Shortcuts or Input Controllers.

I'm using Gimp 2.10.2 on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit.

  Creating a rectangle with text, laid on a map
Posted by: Bill Brookshire - 06-20-2018, 09:50 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Thanks for any help. I start with opening a map, with which I'm trying to create a rectangle, with a red border, and place text on the inside of it. I've read, and watched several tutorials. I've taken notes. I still don't understand how to do this.

  very few file type export options
Posted by: coyote - 06-20-2018, 09:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (19)

Since upgrading to Gimp 2.10.2 on both my computers, I'm confused by my "Export As" window.  

How do I choose a file tyle extension?  The + sign to the left of "Select File Type" seems to do nothing.  

When I click the "All export images" button I get very few options:

[Image: Gimp_File_Types20_06_20.jpg]

Then when I click the Export button usually nothing happens (whether or not I leave the extension unchanged in the Name field; in other words if I manually change it to PDF from the pre-loaded PNG extension); occasionally I do get the next window to confirm export options.

Ack! I hope this is fixable, or I'll need to downgrade to an older version.

  scanner not recognized by 2.10
Posted by: coyote - 06-20-2018, 09:02 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

My scanner no longer appears in the
File|Create...|Scanner/Camera|Select Source 
window on one of my computers (32bitWin8.1Pro).  

It does appear on my other (32bitWin7Pro) computer.

Gimp 2.10.2 is on both computers.
The scanner appeared before I upgraded Gimp to a recent version.  The scanner is an all-in-one and it prints so I know both my OS' recognize it.

Some dude posted this effect on reddit:

How would you recreate this colorful 3D extrusion in Gimp ?

Here's my take
