  Font looks slightly dififerent in GIMP
Posted by: Lafflesia - 08-28-2024, 01:21 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi everyone,
I was using this custom font and I came to notice for some reason it is slightly different from what it's supposed to look like, and this only happens in GIMP. I think the letters and other characters are slightly different too, but it really isn't noticeable, but what IS noticeable and has been bothering me is the period for some reason looking like a comma, which isn't supposed to happen
Here are the pics of the font in gimp and how it should actually look:
       

Once again, I've tested it on multiple programs, and GIMP was the only one to display it like this... any fix? I really can't get over the period

  Font problem
Posted by: sl60 - 08-26-2024, 08:57 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

   
I installed the Monserrat font family into Gimp (I tried both Google Fonts and 1001 Fonts and got the same result) and the file is corrupted--it types out one letter on top of another (see attached). is there any way to fix this?

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!
