Hello all!

I would like to do the following, see attached image:

• image 1 is the original, image 2 has a blue-ish color overlay: #00abb5
  
• I would like to reproduce the color overlay so I can create an image like #2.
  
• When I add a (normal) layer and use the paint bucket to fill it with color #00abb5 and play with the opacity %, the results are not what I am looking for.

Hello guys,

I would be grateful if you could clear these two doubts for me:

01- Is there any way to configure the Scale tool so that it accepts values such as W=100%, H=86.602% ?

I have a layer on which I try to apply this transformation, but when I type 86.602, in the Height field, it immediately adjusts to 86.73.


02- When using the Shear tool (shift+H) I can't work with values at angles.  

I would like to enter the offset angle of the X Axis, for example, in 30º, but this tool works with "magnitudes", whatever that means.

To get shear to figure at 30º I found an approximate value of magnitude between 98 and 112.

Is there any form/filter/plugin in Gimp that makes it possible to apply shear depending on the desired angle?

Grateful!

I have a photo with a lot of noise, mostly white, and I've tried "denoise" some of the blurs and everything "smooth" in GMIC, mostly to little or no result or heavy blurring. I seem to be stuck with years of hand-painting them in. Surely I am overlooking something?

   
I have an photo montage that is 4587x2970 and I want to crop it into sections to print the sections out. O.K., I cropped into three sections with fixed 4:6 (thirds straight across with overlapping areas within each third) and printed them as 4x6 prints just fine. But now I want to find a way to crop the image so that it will print out to a larger format--for example double this size that would need 6 4x6 prints to print it all out. Is this possible? Would cutting it into four sections using New Guides work?

It's a friend's photo so I don't want to put it on a public forum so here's one with about the same dimensions from Pixabay.

On windows 10 I’m running GIMP 2.10.20
I have a ShellOut.py in the plug-in directory (C:\Users\....\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins) and everything works perfectly. I use the ShellOut to launch the Nik collection

I recently installed GIMP 2.10.30 on Linux Mint ver 21, and I cannot get the ShellOut.py to work or even be recognized by GIMP. By not being recognized I mean it doesn’t show up under the filters option in GIMP. I placed the ShellOut.py into /home/…/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins 

Does anyone have any advice? I’m stuck. One thing I found online suggested it maybe do to Linux mint being on version 3 of Python, but I’m not sure what to change for that.

I use version 2.10.32
 Already tried adjusting all sliders to minimal, best i get is a square of about 9x9 pixels, what do i do?

Hi,

in CorelDraw, it is (was?) possible to render a one bit (b&w) image as an arbitrary solid colour for black and transparent for white.  Note that this involved no blending or increase in bit width of the image.

I'm trying to do the same thing with GIMP and Inkscape (which sadly lacks this incredibly useful and probably not too difficult to implement feature).

So far all I've managed is an RGBA exported to png with a constant RGB and a high contrast alpha.  It seems to be impossible to prevent some degree of 'anti-aliasing'.

I can import this into Inkscape and lay it over a coloured background, but when I export it,  it's alpha blended, even though I didn't ask for that.  Again, it seems to be impossible to prevent 'anti-aliasing'.

Also, for some reason, Inkscape adds a transparency checker pattern to the background (which is not visible in the edit window).

Surely there's a way to create a one bit transparency in GIMP and render it in colour in Inkscape, then export it without alpha or checkers!

Even better would probably be to do it all in GIMP, but I still need the absence of blending, just the one bit transparency.
UPDATE: I've figured out how to do this in GIMP, but I'd still really like to know if and how I can create and export a one bit colour + transparency image.


Heelp me....  heelp meee...   pleeezzzzz.....

Hello everyone!

I'm using gimp to make figures for my scientific papers. Often I need to place a guide in a certain position relative to a selected layer. I'm trying to write a pretty simple script, that do the job. However, I have a problem with it. I want to have a checkbox, with indicates whether the guide should be placed within the selected layer or not. But it doesn't work. Every time, the script return negative value for guide position. If I have a multilayer image, this means that the guide is placed outside the active layer, regardless of the state of the checkbox. If I have a single layer image, I get an error, that the guide is outside the image. Could anyone help me to solve this problem? The full script is below. Thank you!

I need to use descreen. I've tried to add FFT but the tutorial gives Windows directions. I can't find my C: drive.

Hello

The interoperability feature with Darktable, which allows to open a RAW file in Darktable from Gimp, does not work.

Gimp is not able to open the RAW file modified by Darktable.
Here is the error window:

--------------------------------------------------------
GIMP Message :
Calling error for procedure 'gimp-file-load':
Error opening file '/tmp/gimp/2.10/gimp-temp-253451.exr' for reading

GIMP Message
Opening '/home/benoit/RAW/D7100/DCIM/111D7100/NII_2044.NEF' failed:

Raw Nikon plug-in could not open image

--------------------------------------------------------

I am running Debian GNU/Linux

My Darktable version: 4.0.1
Of Gimp : 2.10.22

I specify that it works on another computer under Debian GNU/Linux in Testing, therefore with other versions of Gimp and Darktable.

Thanks in advance
