Did a test with a fresh start  & all was working. Omg all ok, but i'm wondering about first document.

I know i had cut & scaled the layers, probably set some parameters i do not recognize as a newbee.
Could there be a general reset that will help or else i will scrap it & will have to re-edit all my layers.

  Colour difference between GIMP and Adobe products
Posted by: balazsmarton@yahoo.co.uk - 02-04-2023, 08:14 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi,

I have the same PDF document opened in GIMP and various Adove products (s well as in Photoshop). When I use the color picker tool the CMYK codes returned by GIMP are different from the ones returned by the other products.
For example a color returns


C 0 M 68.1 Y 76.9 K 6.7 in GIMP
C 2 M 76    Y 81   K 0    in Adobe

Why is this happening?
Note (in printing the Adobe colors look correct)

Thank you!

  Adding Palettes
Posted by: Shaho - 02-02-2023, 06:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Question...is there any way to add a complete palette to the Gimp Palette? Have been making new palettes by adding one color at a time to create palettes. Was wondering if there is a way to take the group of colors shown in the screenshot, and add them all at once to make a new palette, or do I have to use color pciker and add them 1 at a time? Thanks for any help.

  Gimp Filter: Adjust images for a slideshow more automatically?
Posted by: Clemens Ratte-Polle - 02-02-2023, 03:51 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

How to adjust images for a slideshow easily?

Hi.
I want to make a gif-slideshow or video from photos taken manually "free hand" of the same place daily: building a house.

1.Do you know Gimp addons which would help?

2. Special wish for a plugin: Adjusting by setting "alignment pixel points"?
These images must be adjusted very exactly not to get a shaky effect in the slideshow, maybe in a faster animation effect.
First all images must be centered to an exact to be clicked middle point fixed on the first image.
Second all images must then be rotated and stretched a little because taken by shaky hand and slightly different distances and angles.
So i think a special addon could center and rotate photos by giving manually 2 points of orientation which the user must set on each photo: Two same pixels on 2 objects on each photo.
E.g. on a photo of a house it would be 1. the doorknob and 2. the window handle.

The measure tool to straighten images is not exactly enough i think.
And i would temporary ignore the needed third adjustment of correcting the "falling lines" which would need a third pixel in another direction. 

I hope you understand it. Smile 
thx

  Terminology or else
Posted by: Ofnuts - 02-01-2023, 12:02 AM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (6)

I am writing a script that can work either on vertical or horizontal objects. I need words/expression that refer to

* left/right when working horizontally, and top/bottom when working vertically (begin and end of the "main" direction)
* top/bottom when working horizontally, and left/right when working vertically (begin and end of the "transverse" direction)

Because if I have a single UI, I can't change this dynamically in the input dialog when the user changes the orientation choice.

An alternative is to have two menu entries, one for each orientation, leading to two dialogs and have each dialog use the relevant usual terms.

€0.01 for you thoughts.

  Colors in GIMP Viewport Are More Vibrant Than Actual Image
Posted by: Lucky13guy - 01-31-2023, 07:09 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hey Guys and Gals,

First time post. Please forgive me if this has been discussed before, but I honestly had no idea what to search for in regards to my issue.

Anyway, I've been using GIMP for about 9 months now, and recently I noticed that my images appear to be much more vibrant or saturated in the GIMP viewport than they do when viewed outside of GIMP. This includes images that have never been opened in GIMP previously. It makes photo editing a little difficult, since what you see isn't going to be equal to what you get.

I doubt it has anything to do with my system, but just in case, I've listed some basic specs of what I'm running below.

GIMP Version: 2.10.32 (Revision 1)
Operating System: Windows 11 (64-bit)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5900HS
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Laptop GPU

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, is there some way to fix it so the color saturation matches inside and outside GIMP?

Thanks in advance!

  How to read transparency level ?
Posted by: GauSte - 01-31-2023, 02:57 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello,
I open a picture with several shapes with several transparency colours.

I would like to pick the colour and the transparency level.
If I use the colour picker tool, I can read the RGB levels for the color, but I can't find the transparency level.

Where can I find it for this pixel ?

Thanks

  Trying to cut 4 equal corners off an image
Posted by: razzer - 01-31-2023, 04:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi , so i am new with gimp and am trying to cut 4 equal corners off an image. So i made a triangle with the path tool  and connected it, so then i can choose " selection from path " and in edit mode i can cut or delete that triangle out. 
                                                                But after that i get lost , i want to then just move the triangle and rotate it and move it to another corner and cut that corner out . Then do that to the 2 remaining corners. Though i seem to not be able to just rotate and move the triangle into position very easily. I can lock it and name it , but it don't seem to rotate . Any help? thanks
