  Gimp 2.10.36 to Gimp 2.10.34
Posted by: zeuspaul - 11-26-2023, 10:29 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (9)

Can I revert back to 2.10.34 from 2.10.36?  I have the 2.10.34 exe set up file.  Can I just reinstall 2.10.34?

The reason is I am getting a Gimp crash when I make a rectangular selection one pixel wide and a bunch long.  Then I copy then paste then to new layer.  It crashes when I select to new layer.

Maybe it is faking it.

Photographic proof? Is that still possible?

Video Can't size large image down to fit canvas
Posted by: bradcdavis - 11-24-2023, 12:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Please see video of screen showing the issue (attached .zip). Basically, Large images will not size down correctly in GIMP. I'm using 2.10.36. I can't find anything online that explains how to control resizing images in GIMP like you can in Photoshop. Any tips would be great.

  Problem with animation speed (gif)
Posted by: anto.cristo - 11-23-2023, 08:30 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello there, i'm new to this forum, please excuse my english.

I've created a gif image by combining several layers using filter/animation/optimize difference (or gif) ans set the duration of each frame manually (1200ms for the first and last layer, 600ms for the other ones) by editing the name of the frames.

When previewing result in gimp (filter/animation/replay animation) it works perfectly, but for some reason when i export the result into a gif image, all the frames duration are the same (100ms set by default, wich i can modify when exporting but that doesn't solve the problem).

I tried to double the first and last frame to trick the computer, but gimp detect the doubled frames and set it to 200ms istead of 100ms, wich is not working at the end ..

Worst thing is that the whole operation worked out for some other gif that i made (with same method and sometimes same frames), and didn't work for some others gif. The result seem random to me.

Is someone can explain where i'm doying wrong, it will be greatly appreciated !
Thanks.

  Creating layer from a selection
Posted by: FranckyVee - 11-22-2023, 07:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hey,

New to Gimp. Used photoshop back in the days, but not recently.

I'm currently trying to create a layer from a selection within an image. I'm fairly certain that used to be part of my workflow on photoshop. The way I came up with in Gimp (2.10) is this:

1 - Create the selection, using say the Fuzzy selection wand.
2 - Create a floating layer (?) from the Select... menu on my selection. Now I have  floating layer on the right.

3 - Then make that floating layer a real layer, using right-click on the floating layer and "to new layer".



Now, it appears that the step creating the floating layer actually impacts the initial layer from which I made a selection. It removed the selected area from the initial layer.

That's not what I expect - I'm creating new layers in order to work on those layers, without impacting whatever I have underneath.  Is there a way to achieve this? I see a workaround - Duplicate the base layer from which I made a selection first. Then select & float from the copy. But then that's an extra step that feels unecessary....

Better ideas?

  Question about color spaces in GIMP
Posted by: TheGrayMan - 11-21-2023, 02:05 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hey,

there's a nice website: https://www.wide-gamut.com/test that helps you check whether display supports wider gamut by showing you a simple image saved with P3 .icc color profile. You should see a "W" on the lighter red background if you have HDR turned on and uniform red on SDR displays.

I saved the image on my PC (also attached in post) and opened it with GIMP. When GIMP asks to convert the image to GIMP built-in SRGB I refuse and just keep the P3 .icc profile. Then what's weird for me is that it seems the image is composed of 2 colors outside of 0-255 range. Another weird thing is that at the top of the GIMP's window it's said that the image is 8-bit. These 2 things already seem self-exclusive... Screenshot attached.

Does anybody know what's going on with those values? Correct me if I'm wrong but I think assigning an .icc profile to the image does not change its values at all and the actual color values are still internally saved in 0-1 range. Icc profile is just a metdata that display can interpret to know that color values in this image should be mixed corresponding to color primaries from P3 color gamut and not SDR, right? So these weird values... - could it be GIMP's way of showing colors in wider P3 gamut but still as if corresponding to the color primaries from SDR gamut?

Will be grateful for any hints ; )
