  Install the MathMap plug-in for Windows
Posted by: rich2005 - 09-20-2017, 11:12 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

The old MathMap plugin has largely been superseded by say, gimp-gmic but is still interesting.

The Windows installer download is here: http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/schani/mathmap/

One problem with the installer is its age, comes from 2009 and expects Gimp 2.6 not Gimp 2.8

There are various ways for getting MathMap working, here is mine, a short three minute video demo

  Hue and Saturation tool freeze
Posted by: BJB_07251976 - 09-20-2017, 01:25 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have removed and re installed gimp 2.8 a few times now, and still, when attempting to load the hue-saturation tool, Gimp will freeze. It thinks like it's loading but does not progress and Gimp no longer responds. I'm using Windows 7 Home premium. Please help.

I have a logo that is inside a box with white background. I need to extract the logo and the text so that there I can have a transparent background. It's a jpeg image. I've use so the lasso and scissors, but once I've selected the foreground it just gets stuck. I really just wan to erase background and box. What's the easiest way to do this with a MacBook?

  Simple overwrite image script
Posted by: Gravitus - 09-19-2017, 01:50 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (4)

Hello.

I need to make some changes with script-fu in picture and then just overwrite edited picture onto source picture. How it is done? (with quality and other settings included)

Now I am using this script, but it just creates new file but does not overwrite source.

Also I will need to use this script with batch, so single solutions will not work here.

  How to get Gimp to detect a Bamboo Ink stylus on the New Surface Pro?
Posted by: MrImpossible - 09-19-2017, 02:27 AM - Forum: Windows - No Replies

Ok, so firstly I realize that It would be infinitely easier to simply utilize the lovely pen that Microsoft designed for the surface pro. Unfortunately it is backordered for a couple weeks at least, which leads me to my question.  Do you guys have any idea how to get Gimp to detect a bamboo ink stylus as an input device on the 'New' surface?  The pen works beautifully with the built in sketching applications, I just cant get gimp to see it.  I also cant seem to find the N-trig drivers for surface, not sure if that's still a thing or not.  Any help would be greatly appreciated Smile

  Losing Clipboard Gadget after Using Gimp
Posted by: Lady Fitzgerald - 09-18-2017, 11:58 PM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (3)

I'm on windows 7-64 and Gimp 2.8.22. For a couple of years or so, I've been using a gadget called Clipboarder installed from 8 GadgetPack Tools without any problems but a problem has crept up that I believe is being caused by Gimp.

 To save storage space, I have been removing all my movie DVDs and BDs and the cover art from their individual cases, scanning the cover art and the discs, then storing the disks in CD/DVD storage cases. The scans I've been converting to multipage .tif images.

Up 'til a couple of days ago, I had been using Gimp to rotate and color correct the scans of the discs without any problems. I would drag the image to Gimp, rotate it (it's far easier to rotate the image straight than to try to align the disc perfectly straight in the scanner), then use the auto correction in Levels in Colors to correct the colors I'm color blind so auto correct is a lot safer for me). After correction, I would overwrite the original image, then delete the image in Gimp.

When creating the multipage .tif, after typing in the movie title for the filename, I would copy the title so I wouldn't have to retype it in the file's Title tag. A couple of days or so ago, Clipboarder stopped showing what I had copied into Win 7's clipboard. After fooling around some, I suspected it might be Gimp causing the problem so I would copy something after each step I took when using Gimp to correct the disc scans. Clipboarder would continue to work fine until I Closed All in Gimp after overwriting the original file; then Clipboarder would no longer show any new additions. Eventually, after shutting down Gimp, I would get Clipboarder back.

What's even more baffling is I haven't made any changes to my workflow or any program settings so why would this problem suddenly crop up and what can I do to fix it? This is driving me nuts!

  Creating a car livery
Posted by: Martini - 09-18-2017, 09:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hi!

I'm buying a new single seater with a friend and we have to choose a livery. Since it's wintage (although it's new) and many colours are already taken, we thought we'd take inspiration from the JPS Lotus 72:

[Image: 276-8.jpg]



Our car looks like this :

[Image: crossle-classic-racing-school.jpg]

Or this, this or  this.


So, the paint would be black.

On the nose cone, there are scoops extracting the air from the radiator, I'd like to have a gold trim around those three.
A golden nose.
A golden triangle/trapezium on the side (of the nose cone, still).
A golden circle around the maker's emblem (Crosslé).
The numbers will be the number Pi.

The "Classic Racing School" lettering will remain in gold.
The wheels will be completely black with a golden trim around. Or with the same amount of black and the whole polished aluminium in gold (better, just not sure it's doable).

The side will display this:

[Image: Flancs_lights.png]


Bonus, it would be even better with the headrest (which can be seen here) in dark brown (like Havana)


Before asking for your help, I made a mock-up:

[Image: JPS_car.jpg]


Please don't laugh too hard  Sad
It gives a decent idea of what we want but looks terrible and I'm more or less ashamed to send it to the car company.


I don't know if it's out of the line to ask that here but I'd very much appreciate if someone could have a look and maybe propose something a little bit more refined  Smile


Thanks guys
