How scale drawing to specific size? |

Hi there,
I have a piece of artwork I've added to Gimp and am trying to scale to certain dimensions. I was my understanding that if you use the scale tool and insert either the new desired height and width of the drawing (and the scale is locked), and press 'scale', that it would automatically re-scale it to fit the dimensions, however, it doesn't seem to fit the specified dimensions exactly, with gaps showing on either the sides or top/bottom.
Any idea how to get it to scale a drawing to a specific size?

Hi. New to 2.10 and gimp.
I have a problem, where my pencil will not draw at full color strengh - I have to draw the same spot 3-4 times to get black, green or any color. Have tried changing pencils and opacity is at 100%. Can't seem to figure it out.
Hope you have suggestions.

How To Add Color To A Object In A Black & White Halftone Image |

I'm am trying to understand how to add color to a black and white halftone image (ex. a vase of red roses- the vase and all roses are in black and white halftone...except the middle rose will have the rose buds colored red), I initially tried cutting the image (the middle rose only) I wanted to added color out using the free select tool.
I then copied the extracted color objected (rose) and went about turning the image into a black and white halftone image.
I then tried to paste the color rose onto the half tone portion of the image however whenever I add the rose to the halftone design the rose becomes black and white.
Is this the incorrect approach to this design or is it not possible to create halftone black and white with a single object(s) in color?

Color Picker Tool in the Change Foreground Color dialog |

Hello all,
I've just upgraded from version 2.10 (.10 as I recall) to 2.10.32 Flatpak on Linux Mint. Whatever the previous .xx version was, I had an eyedropper in the toolbox' Foreground Color's Change Foreground Color dialog (same also with the background color) that was supposed to let me click on the eyedropper and click on any color on the screen.
To get to the eyedropper in question, click on either the Foreground color or the Background color. Up comes the appropriate Change Color dialog with a palette of colors to choose from, together with the HTML color code (hexadecimal 6-digit code representing RRGGBB). The eyedropper has a pop-up explanation to "Click the eyedropper, then click any color on your screen to select that color."
I happen to have a Pencil tool selected. I've opened the Change Foreground Color dialog, clicked on the eyedropper, then clicked on the white part of the U-Haul truck to select that color. (I want the truck's branding to disappear from my photo of a camping activity, as it adds clutter behind the subjects of my photo.) The Pencil drops a circle of pink where the eyedropper was to select the white shade.
Better that I exit from the Change Color dialog and use the Color Picker tool. That works.
The same issue exists in the 2.10.32 version just installed.
Can anybody tell me how one uses the eyedropper in the Change Foreground Color dialog? It is redundant in a way to the Color Picker tool, but it would be useful while in the Change Color dialogs if it worked!

Hi there, I keep getting a "unknown file type" message when trying to open a FITS file. Some files are from my camera and some are from the internet. Most are 12 bit or higher. Take care. EDIT: Actually, GIMP will not open any picture file, .jpg, .png, ect, has the same error message. Wonder if I need to re-install GIMP.

When I select a layer to move with the mouse. And when I left click with the mouse it selects my base layer. I can't move the layer I wish to. If I select a different layer to move, its switch's again to my base. Can you help? New to Gimp and editing software.
Thanks, Nash

Hi,
I need someone to work on a script to read a CSV and create images.
So Read CSV, open PSD file on GIMP (is possible?) and create some images (different sizes) based on template.
This is a paid gig, let me know if someone is interested.

Old GImp's configure test (for gtk) is broken? |

Hello. Trying to compile old Gimp (2.6) leads to this error message:
Code:
checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.12.1... no
*** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...
*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: Test for GTK+ failed. See the file 'INSTALL' for help.
The problem is, I am passing gtk to gimp's configure, as can be seen in the end of the following command:
Code:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Glib-2.28.0/lib/ ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gimp/Babl-0.0.22/lib/pkgconfig/:/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gimp/Gegl-0.0.22/lib/pkgconfig/:/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Glib-2.28.0/lib/pkgconfig/:/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gtk+-2.24.20/lib/pkgconfig/
I read config.log, and there it is said
Code:
configure:28134: checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.12.1
configure:28290: result: no
configure:28328: gcc -o conftest -g -O2 -Wall -Wdeclaration-after-statement -Wmissing-prototypes -Wmissing-declarations -Winit-self -Wpointer-arith -Wold-style-definition -I/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gtk+-2.24.20/include/ conftest.c >&5
conftest.c:47:21: fatal error: gtk/gtk.h: No such file or directory
#include <gtk/gtk.h>
Beased on that, I tried to add:
Code:
CPPFLAGS=-I/media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gtk+-2.24.20/include/
to see if configure would find the required header
It didn't work. Finally, I changed it to:
Code:
CPPFLAGS=-I /media/34GB/Arquivos-de-Programas-Linux/Gtk+-2.24.20/include/gtk-2.0/
but once again, it did not work. In case of doubts, the gtk folder does exists, as the gtk.h header, both inside the gtk-2.0 folder
This happened on both versions that I tested, 2.6.0 and 2.6.12 (not interested in newer versions)
So, what might be the cause of this?
