| Copying/pasting alpha channel |
|

Hi
I'd like to use a gradient as an alpha channel , so that for instance an image fades to transparent.
I made a white->black radial gradient and did 'color->color to alpha' but now am stumped as to how to make this into the alpha channel for another image - I dont seem to be able to paste it as an alpha channel from 'Channels' which seemed like the most logical thing to do , and if I add this as a layer to another image and then merge down I lose the gradient alpha.
Maybe I need to use a mask?

| Gimp prints multi page documents on one page |

and won't let me resize the printing larger (it will let me go smaller)
I imported a PDF into gimp, choosing the option to import each page as a layer.
I manually typed a PPI of 600. The previous imports into gimp using the automatic PPI of 100 were low res and blurry - much less clear than Acrobat Reader showed them. This new import appeared to retain sharpness that the 100PPI dropped.
I expanded the canvas and distributed the layers (pages) of the PDF, so now I have an image 8.5 inches across the top and (number of pages times 11.5 inches) down.
When I try to print this, gimp tries to print the whole thing on one 8.5 by 11 inch sheet. I got similar results with a 2 page or a 12 page import.
I cannot increase the print size on the print dialog (image properties tab)- the maximum it'll go is 100.9mm by 250mm. I can type in a larger size but when the caret leaves the field it immediately snaps back down. Gimp does let me reduce the size.
under image-> print size dialog it lets me change print size but when I actually go to print the size has returned to the maximum of 100x250mm on the image properties tab and again I can only decrease the size, not increase it.
I'm using version 2.8.22.

| Creating a path from a picture |

Hello
I am using GIMP and INKSCAPE to do cloth personalisation and up-cycling, on LINUX 16.04 Xubuntu.
I have a picture of a stitch garment in 2 colours. (see attachement for a picture with reduced definition)
I would like to get a path from this picture in order to use it in INKSCAPE.
I have tried to use colour selection then selection to path; But the path contains some 35000 nodes and when open in INKSCAPE it never comes back.
I have a high picture definition. I thought about reducing the definition but I am afraid to get "staircases" instead of curves. Do you have any suggestion on howx I could reduce the number of nodes. Is there a modificcation of the image before doing the selection which could help. The "contiguous coulor "selection does not work any better. So any help would be welcomed.

I am trying to install GIMP Git version on a Fedora GNOME 64bit edition.
When I do './autogen.sh' in the gimp folder I get informed about missing dependencies:
Code:
Error: GIMP configuration failed.
- Error: missing dependency babl >= 0.1.31
- Error: missing dependency gegl-0.3 >= 0.3.21
- Error: missing dependency gexiv2 >= 0.10.6
- Error: missing dependency libtiff
*** Checks for TIFF library failed: TIFF library not found
- Error: missing dependency libjpeg
*** JPEG library not found
- Error: missing dependency libjpeg
*** JPEG header file not found
- Error: missing dependency libjpeg
*** JPEG library is too old
- Error: missing dependency libmypaint >= 1.3.0
- Error: missing dependency rsvg >= 2.40.6
- Error: missing dependency lcms2 >= 2.8
- Python 2 headers
*** Please install them, or skip building the python scripting extension by

See the file 'INSTALL' for more help.
Configure failed or did not finish!
So I tried to install babl:
Code:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/babl
cd babl
./autogen.sh
and the gegl:
Code:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/gegl
cd gegl
./autogen.sh
upon which I get the following error:
Code:
configure: error: Package requirements (babl >= 0.1.34) were not met:
Package 'babl', required by 'virtual:world', not found
Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.
Alternatively, you may set the environment variables BABL_CFLAGS
and BABL_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.
I am lost at this point, since I don't know anything about environmental variables. Anyone could help on what to do?
Thanks

| insert image layer into all vid frames with GAP |

Hello, using GAP is there a way to accomplish this? Id like to insert a layer into every frame of video using GAP and have the new layer appear in the same location in each frame. I can do it manually one frame at a time which is time-consuming (and beside that, when doing it manually I cannot figure out a way to get the new layer to appear in the same exact location on each frame autmomatically) I have to drag the new layer into place on each frame and i can never get it to the exact same spot.
thanks!

This is a general upgrade of the text-along-path script. The changes are:
- Removed the Gimp-2.6-specific code
- Fixed the positioning of characters (no more residual jitter)
- Added "Repeated" layout option
- Added "Reverse path direction" option
- Added "Boxes" option
- Fixed handling of closed strokes
- Improved performance (paths not added to image unless necessary)
- Repackaged/renamed "ofn-"
Enjoy.
Comments, suggestions, and bug reports welcome as usual.
Usual place is here.
