I wish to try using Canon's Print Studio Pro to lay out pictures for printing.
It is a plugin for Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Photoshop Elements, Adobe Photoshop Lightroom, and Canon Digital Photo Professional.
Has anyone figured out how to plug Adobe plug-ins into GIMP?

Are we able to save a processed image as a j peg?

Hello, I have finally jumped out of the Adobe atmosphere and parachuted into the Gimp landscape, I will try and learn the ways as best I can for an old fart but if someone could please enlighten me as to a way to dehaze an image, I am not sure.
I have only ever been an occasional photoshopper and will now be an occasional graphic image manipulator so I don't know many shortcuts and have always been self taught, my methods of any processing have probably always been the long wrong way but usually get somewhere in the vicinity of what I am after.
Thank you for any help you may offer.
Peter.

Hi Gimpsters
My problem is contrast between white foreground and white background.
The line between foreground is indistinct against the background for adding a Layer Mask. I need more contrast. Easily done Colors>Desaturate>Color to Grey. But after applying the Layer Mask how do I get my original colors back? Or, as usual, am I going about this all wrong?
I'm using 2.10 in Zorin.
Much thanks,
Bry

I'm using Gimp 2.10.34, and I'm new to the software. Also, I'm using a French version so, I'm not sure the terms I will be using here will be an accurate translation.

So I'm trying to bend a distorted image with the 'Distortion: Curve' tool in the 'Filters' menu, it appears to be exactly the tool I need, some trials have produced encouraging results. But, the preview window shows such a small image that I can't see what I'm doing. It's pretty much guess work from there. 
Is there a way to zoom in on the preview image?

   

What is the most controllable and precise way to mark ("free select") an area on a layer and gradually reduce it from 100% opacity in the edges to a defined area where there should be 36% opacity?

Please see the accompanying image (which is certainly not the ultimate solution for this task)

   

Hi,

I am trying to do something I am sure is simple and probably has multiple solutions but I just don't seem to be able to find an answer that works.

I have a JPG image, which is 3000 pixels square. All I wish to do is save out a copy of the image but with a thin black border.

I would be extremely grateful if anyone could give me pointers on how to do this, please?

Kind wishes - Patrick

Hi,

Watching a video today I saw that the Gimp canvas was rotated while the artist worked on the image, but there was no change in the visible layer; When viewing the layer, the image remained unchanged.

But the video was of the speed art type, so without much information about what menus or tools were being used.

Is this a thing with newer versions of Gimp or versions like mine can also rotate the canvas? If yes, how?

Thanks.

Hi all,

I have tried to edit GPS locations in GIMP but it isn't working. I'm using GIMP 2.10.34 (latest available from the repositories) on Fedora 38. In my GIMP preferences under 'Image Import and Export' I have 'Export Exif metadata by default' selected.

If I edit an image without modifying any of the exif data, those data are preserved. However if I edit the exif GPS data via 'Image' > metadata' > 'edit metadata', then click the button labelled 'write metadata', and then export the image, all GPS data is lost.

Is there something I'm missing here?

Hello,
I can't seem to get my head around layer masks and modifying layers.

I opened a .CR2 (canon raw file) as a layer, made a duplicate layer.
Tried various tools on the duplicate but they did not effect the image.

Next I added a layer mask to the duplicate, tried various tools on it and received the same results - no modifications.

If I tried various tools on the initially loaded .cr2 file, any changes I made took effect.

This is my first experience at modifying images so I have no previous experience.

I am looking for advice as to what I am doing wrong, please.

Thanks,
dlb
