I'm new to GIMP so how do I locate my SD card images? There doesn't appear to be a way of navigating to the SD card on my iMac.

Hi guys, I'm new to gimp, and recently this little annoying popup covered where I could previously edit my brush. Angry

I honestly have no idea how to remove this screen so I can edit my brush.


I'm in a pickle here.

  Changing what the tilde key does?
Posted by: OonaMistwalker - 08-24-2024, 08:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I'm running Gimp 3.10.38 in Windows 11 on an HP Envy Laptop built for the US market. I use "International Keyboard" option in my operating system to type in other languages. I need to type French text into an image, but when I try to use the key that types the tilde ( the ~/ key. It's to the left of the 1 key), it changes the zoom of the image to 100%. How do I unbind this so it will type the characters on the ~/ key?

  Changing the palette in the Color Exchange "To Color" and "From Color" dialogues
Posted by: heumann - 08-21-2024, 10:03 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hello!  I'm using the Color Exchange feature quite heavily in my current project, and since I have a limited number of colors to use in this project, it's important to have the specific palette I'm using show up when I use Color Exchange.

Steps to reproduce: 

- activate the Color Exchange (Colors > Map > Color Exchange....)
  - the Color Exchange box appears
- select the eyedropper next to "To Color" or "From Color"
  - the "To Color" box appears
- click the Palette icon

In pictures!
   
   
   


My question is, how do I control which palette of colors is shown when I do this?  Sometimes it's the active palette, but often it's not.

Thanks in advance!

Photo Help, how did I get this backlight effect?
Posted by: dmerces - 08-21-2024, 01:14 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello my fellows,
I don't know if this is the right place to ask this kind of question. If it isn't, I apologize, but I'm feeling extremely stupid and I really need your help: I produced an image about 30 days ago and now I can't repeat the steps to get the same effect. Both images, the source image (DM Logo Work) and the final result (DM Logo - Edge_3), are attached.
 
The only clue I have is that I used neon and sobel edge detection types, and maybe color curve, color equalization and color desaturation on the attached logo. Unfortunately, I can't remember anything else. My initial intention was to get a Sketch effect, but I ended up accidentally getting this effect, which I really liked, but unfortunately I don't know how to reproduce it. Five days today trying various alternatives with no success.
 
I'm sorry to bother you with this stupid question, but at 70 years old my reasoning ability is decreasing and my anxiety is increasing tremendously. Be patient with me, please.

Thank you in advance for your help.

DMerces

  .jtif and .avif images
Posted by: Krikor - 08-20-2024, 12:36 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (4)

Hello everyone,

For some time now, when downloading images from the web, I have come across images of the .jtif and .avif types.

For me, these are new formats; I don't remember having seen them before.
Fortunately, GIMP had no problems opening them and allowing me to edit/use these images.

Do these types of .jtif and .avif images have any advantages over those we already use routinely, such as .png, .jpeg, .gif, .tif, etc.?

Is there any place/entity that provides this type of information in layman's terms?

Thank you!

  Gimp menus unusable
Posted by: brucefenster@gmail.com - 08-20-2024, 10:12 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Just downloaded ver 2.10.38 for intel to run on my Macbook Pro with quad-core Intel core I7 running OS 11.1.10. I'd like to try out the program.

The program is unusable as all the menus, even the working in the startup banner look like this:
   

How can I fix this?

Thanks

Bruce
