  Tool Options windows position not remembered
Posted by: DrNukular - 05-30-2017, 01:16 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hi,

I have arranged the Gimp windows in a way that I have the Tool Options to the right of the workspace, but still left of the Dockable Dialogs (see attached image). However, when I restart Gimp, the positions have swapped. Suddenly I have the Dockable DIalogs left of the Tool Options.

   

Is anyone else having that issue? Does anyone know why this is happening and how to resolve it? Is there a way to make Gimp remember the positions of the windows?

Thanks for any help or advise.


I'm running Gimp version 2.8.22 on Fedora 25.

  Mouse drag and drop based functions not working
Posted by: BlackholeGP - 05-29-2017, 04:12 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

Hey,

A day or so ago I started getting this issue that is making a lot of gimp functions nearly impossible to use. Drag and drop does not work in the gimp interface; to be more specific, things may "drag", but it will not specify a place for them to "drop". If I attempt to drag a layer, for instance, the layer follows my mouse location, but gimp does not show me the black line where it will be dropped, and letting go of the layer does not drop it in a new location, thus making moving the layer this way impossible.

Furthermore, I cannot place dockable dialogues within another ui box with dragging and dropping in this same manner, and, sometimes but not always, mousing along the menus at the top of the window does not open them up - it gets stuck on the first menu it opens.

I am running Gimp on Windows 10, and just updated to the latest Gimp version, but the problem persists.

Any help? This makes using gimp extremely awkward.

  gif making
Posted by: tybonel13 - 05-27-2017, 04:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I need a way to add a fixed image to every frame of a previously made gif without going through each frame one by one. I have tried the script plugin but I don't know how to use it because I am a noob at scripting. I have looked through other threads and found nothing. Please help.

  Excessive RAM usage at load
Posted by: artmiller - 05-26-2017, 09:24 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

When I open Gimp it is using 700mb of RAM before I even open an image.
PC Windows 8.1 / 12GB RAM

When I open Gimp I see from the task manager window it is already using 700mb RAM.

This seems very high -- and results in mouse lag.

Have cleared doc history and reset to defaults.

What am I doing wrong....?!


Many thanks.



screen shots.

And somehow I have lost my hand move tool at cursor. Now only got a cross hair which will not let me move screen windows...!

Help...!

  How are spammers dealt with on this forum?
Posted by: trandoductin - 05-25-2017, 04:29 PM - Forum: Gimp-Forum.net - Replies (2)

I have a check ip script that i call on registration page that makes api calls to stopforumspam.org
and if the ip is considered spam i stop them from registration.
Sometimes, some still get through since they could be new spammers which have no been reported to stopforumspam.org yet.
Then I add spam data to stopforumspam.org to contribute to their data.

I wonder how spammers are monitored/detected on GF.


I was curious where these spammers get software that get through the capcha and looked up spammer software and ran into some posts that said a decent spammer software costs like $400, so expensive i wonder how these spammers justify their spamming with that kind of cost.

Question what settings to use to sharpen?
Posted by: seafan - 05-23-2017, 04:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi,

What settings are recommended to use Unsharp Mask for landscape and portraits? so that the effect is not too over the top. I experimented a little, seems that I'm quite a bit off. I'd like to know some good starting points for each category.

thanks,

Jason

Question how to auto align layers?
Posted by: seafan - 05-23-2017, 04:44 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi,

For multiple handheld (bracketting) shots, the subjects are often not aligned exactly. After opening them as layers in GIMP, how to let the software align them based on the subjects in the pictures? There is "align visible layers" option under "image" menu, but I'm not sure how to use it.

thanks,

Jason
