Easy way to paste multiple images together? - T-buch - 12-29-2018 From time to time, I could need some kind of an autofunction to paste multiple images with the same width together as follows: Picture 2 is pasted to the bottom of picture 1, picture 3 to the bottom of picture 2, etc. RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - Blighty - 12-29-2018 1) Make sure that each card is on its own layer, and that it is tightly cropped around the card. (In the example below cropping is not tight enough, so alignment is not good!) 2) Each layer (card) must be the same size. (In the example below - 177 pixels high) 3) Use the Alignment tool to distribute the cards vertically. Select the Distribute tool, Click the first card, Shift-Click subsequent cards. See image below 4) Use the Alignment tool to align the left edges of the cards. See image below. Note: The Alignment tool doesn't work if the layers are stacked vertically above each other, as individual layers cannot be selected. RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - T-buch - 12-29-2018 Thanks a lot But - I can see that I should have been more detailed and clearly - i'm sorry Added info:
If i not can be done with a kind of an autofunction - what will be the easiest way to do it (lets say 5 pics = long final picture) RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - Blighty - 12-30-2018 I don't think there is an automated way that will be faster than doing it manually. Screen dumps of net-pages are fairly easy to assemble. Make sure that there is some overlap between images. Put the upper layer at 50% opacity to do the aligning. Use the Move tool and mouse to move one layer into position. Then use the arrow keys to nudge the image into its final position. RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - Ofnuts - 12-30-2018 Two ways: Semi-manual
* With my ofn-tiles plugin, use File>Open tiles, give it a directory and a pattern, set Columns to 1 and Rows to the number of cards. arrange-layers is described here. (ofn-tiles comes with its own documentation) Both are downloadable here. RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - rich2005 - 12-30-2018 A possibility for Gimp: The gmic montage filter, in the Arrays and Tiles section. gmic_gimp from http://www.gmic.eu A stack of layers, and montage applied. https://i.imgur.com/jGKrBPq.jpg RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - T-buch - 12-30-2018 Tahnks a lot for the suggestions - I have had some family visiting so I will not have time to try it out in a few days Happy New Year RE: Easy way to paste multiple images together? - T-buch - 01-02-2019 Then I got some time again and I am now trying your suggestions, starting numerically with # 4 onwards. In # 4 everything happens manually I open my pictures as layers Then, as you know, the pics put themselves on top of each other and if you move them, they become "invisible" (because the canvas is limited) I usually move them anyway (roughly) and then click IMAGE -> FIT CANVAS TO LAYERS - to have some working space Can it be smarter?

Image > Canvas Size These fields can do simple arithmetic. For example, if the height is 789 pixels, you can edit this to be 789*12. The chain icon next to the fields locks the aspect ratio. Click the chain link to break it if you only want to edit one field.
