  Export non square or rectangle image
Posted by: Ace71425 - 03-03-2018, 05:13 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

So im looking to export an image that is a triangle...easy enough to do with a transparent background and it looks like you have a triangle...but im my case I need the dimensions of the picture to fit the triangle perfectly not be a triangle within a square or rectangular transparent dimension...it's kind of like I'm looking for an option of setting the image to be width, height, and diagonal or something like that. Thanks!

  What should be expected from "Edit Metadata"?
Posted by: ajax - 03-02-2018, 08:15 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - Replies (5)

One of the things I've been looking forward to is improvement in the handling of metadata by GIMP 2.10.  When trying to invoke "Image>Metadata>Edit Metadata" on GIMP 2.9.8 I receive an error saying that the plugin crashed (see attachment for what is actually displayed).

My research led to some disclaimers saying that some plugins may not work on 64bit computers.  However, as far as I can tell Version 2.9.8 is only supplied in 64bit  form.  Does this mean that plugins included in the 64bit distribution only work on 32bit computers which, of course, makes them unusable because this version of GIMP doesn't work on 32bit computers unlike prior 32bit versions which would work on either 32bit or 64bit computers.

  Missing "Edit with Gimp"
Posted by: Davefaz - 03-02-2018, 08:25 AM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (6)

I installed Gimp on a new Win10 PC yesterday, but there is an issue. There is no entry in the Context Menu "Edit with GIMP". I uninstalled the software, installed it again, checked the associations, and not a single typr of graphics file comes up with "Edit with GIMP".
Anyone any clue what's going wrong? Unfortunately if I can't fix this I will have to abandon GIMP. BOO!

Photo Obama Hope Poster Style but Double Exposed Original
Posted by: trandoductin - 02-28-2018, 09:53 PM - Forum: Gallery - Replies (5)

[Image: obama-poster-double-exp-contrasty-png?id=9411]
Double exposed original on top at 50% opacity on top of Obama Poster Style base, then high contrast it.
I enjoyed the result thought i'd share.

Here was the base that i did after have a good chat with EsperMaschine, quite happy with this as I traced out thresholds.

  Learning Gimp??
Posted by: aamcle - 02-28-2018, 09:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I've used Gimp in a fairly halfhearted way (1) for some years but I'd now like to get to grips with it and I'd prefer a one source option, a book or course something that's joined up rather than fragmented tutorials.

I'll be using 2.8 on OpenSuse linux.


Please can you recommend something?



Many Thanks.              aamcle

(1) resize, clone, various simple adjustments , I'm fuzzy on paths and layers and channels etc.

  "source contains no colors" despite following the instructions to import palette
Posted by: gnuimpcub - 02-28-2018, 07:48 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (14)

My system: Gimp 2.8.18 on Debian GNU/Linux 9 (stretch) 64-bit Gnome 3.22.2

Hi,

I try to import a color palette from a picture with RGB mode, following the instructions of rich2005 found in https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-How-to...83#pid6383

Quote:To get a palette from the original RGB image is different.
1. In the palettes dialogue, right click to import https://i.imgur.com/iF437h3.jpg
2. You get the 'Import' dialogue where you can select the image, and the number of colours https://i.imgur.com/qLPGDYU.jpg
3. Then again, hunt for that palette (Lenna-imported-5), right click, rename to something sensible, note the 500 colours in this one. https://i.imgur.com/QBZPIJX.jpg

Try as I might, I always get the message "source contains no colors", and the resulting imported color palette contains only very few colors, e.g., only two.

However, when I first convert the mode of the image to indexed I can import the full color palette containing all colors.

Did I get something wrong with "To get a palette from the original RGB image..."?

Is it impossible to import a color palette from an RGB image?

Thanks,

gnuimpcub

P.S. Since I work with layers, I have to work with RGB mode.

Just tried it with Gimp 2.8.16 on Microsoft Windows 10 Home Edition OEM, Version 1511 (Build 10586.164). Same result as with Linux Debian  Sad

  Use cut and (new) edge fades to white
Posted by: sbhairava72 - 02-28-2018, 07:01 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

Say, for example, I have a layer that is solid red (255,0,0) on the left side and solid blue (0,0,255) on the right.  Then I cut out and keep a rectangle or polygon from the middle.  If I zoom in I see that the edge of the polygon fades to white.  The left fades from red to white, and the right from blue to white.

The original pixels, at what now is the edge, were full red (or blue).

Is there a way to cut that leaves the pixels at the edge at their original color (hue/sat/lum)?

This is what I did:
  pdb.gimp_image_select_polygon(image01, CHANNEL_OP_ADD, len(polygonPoints), polygonPoints)
  pdb.gimp_selection_invert(image01)
  pdb.gimp_edit_cut(layerobj)
  pdb.gimp_selection_invert(image01)

I think that what is happening is that for the cut the pixels at the edge might be considered as, for example, 80% inside the polygon and 20% outside - so they are given acolor that is 80% red.

I there way to select a threshold so that the pixels that are >= 50% red would be solid (255,0,0) red, otherwize they would be cut from the polygon?

Thanks,
Saurabh

  Ink tool: can I make it get thinner instead of thicker?
Posted by: tolworthy - 02-28-2018, 03:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I love the ink tool (the calligraphy pen): a slow movement is a thick like, and a fast movement is thin, just like using a quill pen. But for drawing I need the opposite: when quickly drawing a person's arm I need a thick line, but when I slow down to draw the fingers I need it thinner. Is there some way to do that?

(Using Gimp 2.8.16 on Linux Mint)
