  Saving selections in a channel
Posted by: Espermaschine - 10-22-2016, 06:09 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

When i type text, then go to 'Text to path', make a selection from that path and save it in a channel, that selection is superior (more precise) to using 'Alpha to selection' and saving that in a channel, right ?

  Displacement Filter Maps
Posted by: Espermaschine - 10-22-2016, 06:06 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Is there any advantage when using the Displacment Filter, in using a channel as the map instead of a black & white bitmap ?
Or is that technically the same ?

Haven't looked at uploading pictures to here yet and I don't want too put one on here that is too large.
I cut a small area out of a photo with red bottle-brushes on them and made a pattern.

  Question about paths
Posted by: Espermaschine - 10-21-2016, 12:38 PM - Forum: Other graphics software - Replies (3)

There is some sort of inconsistent behaviour that i'd like to understand.

If i make a drawing in Inkscape, there are no layers unless i create them.
When i draw something in Illustrator, part of shapes are automatically on different layers.

When i import a path i made in Inkscape into Gimp, it creates a bunch of path-layers for different parts, that werent existent in Inkscape.

Why is that ?

  Gimp Installation
Posted by: rich2005 - 10-21-2016, 12:07 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (1)

A set of short videos about installing and setting up Gimp in Windows 10
Duration 3 to 6 minutes each (no 30 minute Epics here)

Installing Gimp for the first time. 






Initial set-up






Adding resources, brushes, fonts, a new theme






Installing local help






Moving tabs and docks
Did you look at the second video Initial set-up for Gimp in single window mode? That is the best way for new users.

However, changing the look of the interface is possible, this gives examples for re-arranging the parts of the single window. About 6 minutes duration.

  Angled Guides
Posted by: Blighty - 10-21-2016, 11:20 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Is it possible to create angled guides in Gimp? For example, I want a guide to go through point (x,y) at an angle of 22.5 degrees. I can't find a way to rotate a guide.

  modifying raw/tiff files
Posted by: metulburr - 10-20-2016, 02:06 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I installed ufraw. But i was expecting to modify a raw image in a way like in GIMP with a jpeg or png etc. Having all the tools (copy/paste, blend, layers, etc.). But you dont. All you get in urfraw is a histogram, EXIF info, etc. Not the basic tools. 

What if i wanted to blow up an image using a raw image, while also doing tasks such as

  removing an object from an image
Posted by: metulburr - 10-19-2016, 12:54 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

My goal:
I am trying to remove the kid from the left. At least enough to crop to make a decent pic without him. 

I "usually" do this by selecting random smaller sections from the area and blending/healing them in to make it look more natural. However if there is a simpler way i would like to know. 

On this i copied a section from the right and moved it over. Its good enough up to the point that the selection is too dark. Is there a way to lighten the selection to the surrounding area all at once?

Are you able to add links to places where you can let people know where to get a good version of gimp etc?
I know many people will already have one before they go looking for a forum but just an idea. Maybe some other places as well that you trust. Or isn't it something you are interested in.
