  Remove text from scan
Posted by: Aquilax - 05-10-2024, 10:17 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hello, I'm trying to translate a children board game because there is no official translation.
I have scanned some cards and I would like to remove the text (in a nice way) from the pictures and replace it with the translated text.
I tried the healing tool but the text is not really removed completely, it is still visible as an halo.
This is most probably given from the not uniform background color produced from the print process and taken over by the scanner.
What is the best practice in this case to remove the text from the scan?
Note: I wanted to attach an example of the scanned cards but it didn't work because it seems to be to large. I have uploaded it to ImgBB (https://ibb.co/w6Rf7Lh)

  Fibonacci Ratio - Aurea Ratio
Posted by: Krikor - 05-08-2024, 02:13 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hello everybody,

Some image editors have a feature that makes it possible to visualize either the Fibonacci graph or the Aurea ratio grid.

In Gimp that I remember, there is something similar when I select the Scale tool and in the 'Guide' field there is the option 'Rule of thirds'.

In G'MIC there is 'Testing - Reptorian - Fibonacci', but it didn't seem practical to superimpose the image and look for better adjustments.

Does anyone know of a way to use GIMP and take advantage of these features (Fibonacci Grid and Golden Ratio)?

Taking advantage of the post, would anyone know if Inkscape would also have something similar to this feature?

Grateful.

  Gimp integration for Prism Pipeline
Posted by: JBreckeen - 05-08-2024, 11:52 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - No Replies

Morning all:

I wanted to share with everbody that a Gimp integration into the Prism Pipeline has been released.

AltaArts/Gimp_Integration--Prism-Plugin (github.com)

Prism is a pipeline tool to organize all the data and files for a project.  It is mainly aimed at the VFX side of things and has support for many DCC's.

 Prism Pipeline - Animation and VFX Pipeline (prism-pipeline.com)

We have been using Prism and Gimp for while now, and I wanted to have them work together.  As of now, Gimp2 is supported.  But support for Gimp3 should be added at some point.

Feel free to use, modify, suggest, etc.

Thanks for all the info,

J.

  Downloading and getting started
Posted by: pmd1117 - 05-07-2024, 05:39 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (1)

Downloaded Gimp 2.10.38 for Apple Silicon directly (wasn't sure if I should have done intel).  When I went to open image I tried to click on desktop to import my image so can't choose anything.  Quit program and reloaded but brought me to same page as must have it in cookies, tried clicking show all files on bottom but couldn't click on that either.


Also, wouldn't allow me also tried create new image but wouldn't let me click OK

  Gimp UI progress bar "cancel"
Posted by: JBreckeen - 05-06-2024, 02:23 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (2)

Hello all.

So I am working on a plugin that saves and exports (amongst other things).  Got it all working, and it exports/saves correctly.

The small issue I have is that after the script exports the image (or other procedures), the status bar at the bottom of the UI (Gimp 2.10) gets stuck on for example "Exporting ...  Cancel" even though the image has been exported (see pic).

I tried  pdb.gimp_displays_flush(), but that does not seem to work.  Is there something I am missing?  Do I need to return a success or anything as a result?



Thanks much,

J.

  Automatic cutting image into equal parts
Posted by: rinaldop - 05-06-2024, 11:25 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (18)

Hello again everyone,

I am back with a question about automating tasks. I have the image below.

     

It is a quarter of a circle, 90 degrees. I want to make a gauge out of it by cutting it into 100 segments of 9 degrees each. Is there an easy way to do this?

Thanks
