  How to merge parts of an image aligned to their edges?
Posted by: felixcra - 03-03-2018, 09:03 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Consider the following image as an example:


https://i.imgur.com/E91iXwL.png

[Image: E91iXwL.png]

What is the best way to merge the upper and the lower part together?

Edit: It might be better visible what I need if you have a look at the imgur image instead of the embedded image here, as there you can clearly see the borders of the parts I want to merge.

  alpha to selection and text
Posted by: alin33 - 03-03-2018, 08:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I'm applying alpha to selection to text and fill the text with a gradient.I have noticed that after applying alpha to select the text loses his text attributes -usually I'm doing text to path cause I need the text layer to be regular layer-but after alpha to selection I don't have the text layer to path option-I need the final result -regular layer-Does the alpha to selection made it regular layer and not text permanently?

  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

[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
