Need some help

[saih_tam]

Hi

I'm sorry for my bad English. I am really incompetent in advance Gimp using.

I would like to modify the "down right corner" symbol of 'Note_Cymbal_Yellow_Sizzle.png' in order to look like the 'Note_Cymbal_Miss_Sizzle.png' symbol but I don't know how to do that. I would copy/paste the "down right corner" symbol in the other file to obtain the 3 other corners.

I imagine it's a basic manipulation for an expert.

Could someone do that for me please ?

I don't think this is translating very well. The cymbal has corners? I can't see them.

"Down right corner" is the part surrounded by green.

Thanks a lot for your help.

I misspoke myself.

I would like to modify the "down right corner" symbol of 'Note_Cymbal_Yellow_Sizzle.png' (green surrounded zone) in order to look red "transparent" like the 'Note_Cymbal_Miss_Sizzle.png' symbol (blue surrounded zone).

I try to do this modification by myself (last attachment) but it’s not consistent enough with the other : too opaque and not red enough.

I rectangle selected lower RHS box then > float (it becomes a new layer)
Colors > Curves and dragged the line up to the left to lighten.
Then Colors > Hue Saturation > selected red color and moved the 3 sliders to get a similar effect.
Cheers.

Not as simple as you want and probably never an exact match.

Too many screenshots to post on-line so follow the imgur links

1. Use a sample point to find the properties of the miss sizzle image
Sample points : https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-sampl...ialog.html
The dock Windows -> Dockable Dialogs -> Sample Points  https://i.imgur.com/fW9dY17.jpg

2. Separate the corner of the yellow sizzle image. Select / Cut / Edit -> Paste As -> New layer / Select -> None https://i.imgur.com/RbrX9kA.jpg

3. Colours -> Curves and adjust the red / green / blue individual curves to match the values of (1) https://i.imgur.com/wUc7eDt.jpg

4. Adjust the layer opacity to 49 (125 in the sample point) https://i.imgur.com/aoTSLzd.jpg

Gives this: 

   

Now tell us what you really want

What I did :
- load original layer
- new layer with color red/orange layer mode 'overlay'
- new layer white layer mode 'Lighten only' / opacity 50%

Thanks a lot for your help. I tried it, but it didn’t work : it's not very intuitive and I'm a novice.

In doing that, you forgot the transparency
Could you please redo that on the original files attached to my first post (on 'Note_Cymbal_Yellow_Sizzle.png' compared to 'Note_Cymbal_Miss_Sizzle.png') with transparency ?

Yours are two yellow/orange compared to the "model" ('Note_Cymbal_Miss_Sizzle.png').

Yours looks great !!! Could you please attached the resulting 'Note_Cymbal_Yellow_Sizzle.png' file ?

I work on french version of Gimp. I found "mode 'overlay'" but what is "with color red/orange" ?

[denzjos]

1 / click on the FG to get 'Change foreground colour' menu and set colour (between red and yellow / orange)
2/ fill the 'color' layer with the colour
