  Clone problems colour doesn't match the source
Posted by: Kev - 09-04-2023, 02:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

Having real problems again 

Was using clone and for some reason the colour is now slightly different than the source  sometimes lighter sometimes darker depending what I'm trying to cover 
I probably clicked on something by accident as this seems to happen to me .

I don't know if there is any thing you can click on that takes everything back to default settings when originally installed as that would be a great help.

Did once before uninstall and re install but that didn't help as it remembered my last settings.

I'm a real novice (idiot ) as far as tech goes .

Thanks in advance Kev

  Adjusting a path along a curve
Posted by: Ofnuts - 09-03-2023, 10:54 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

A simple technique to make a path follow a given curve:

Make a path that is a straight line between two points o the curve.

   

Eyeball where a tangent to the curve is roughly parallel to the path line (around the middle for a regular curve). Click on the corresponding point on the line, and control-click  on the line to add an anchor,

   

Drag the anchor to the curve. Your path should be a line that is pretty close to the curve.

   

If it is not close enough, repeat the process for the parts that require it


   

Very often a single midpoint is sufficient, for instance the top of the wing is an easy fit:

  Curved text
Posted by: sl60 - 09-03-2023, 07:35 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I'm aware of the technique of creating an arc with the Paths Tool>Text Along Path but here's what I'd like to do. If I have an existing arc in an image (i.e.. a solid object or a geometric shape), how can I place text in a curve along its outline?

  Vector Path coloured
Posted by: xyzett - 09-03-2023, 01:07 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hey, I want to refresh my Logo. The Letters and shapes were build on bad pixel at least by widescreen. I figured out how to convert letters and path with ai to .svg (Vector), it’s so sharp.

But with Gimp 2.8.22 I’m not able to put back that color gradient to imported path.
The result should be a .png and not a .svg
.. So can you help me please with mixing that sharp vectors with the color gradient?
When I convert a gimp path to selection, the pixels unfortunately always come back.

Sad Drawing problem with Paintbrush, Pencil & Eraser leaving a trail of multi-shaded over
Posted by: garysch37 - 09-02-2023, 09:59 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

All of a sudden, while I was working on a Gimp document, in Gimp 2.10 on my Mac, instead of drawing a regular brush/pencil stroke, started drawing a weird "trail" of overlapping circles in my foreground colour at different shades and opacities. This happens with both the Paintbrush and Pencil tools, and in fact it also erases with the Erase tool in the same fashion.

Troubleshooting: I created a new document and the same happens. I exited Gimp, went back in, created a new document, and the same happens. I rebooted my computer: no help. I uninstalled Gimp and re-installed it, rebooted, changed nothing on the tool defaults, and the same happens. I remote connected to the Windows 7 Pro computer at work to see if it's something with my Mac, and Gimp works fine there (though it still may have to do with some interaction with my Mac). Another graphics app (specifically Krita) works fine on my Mac.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Gary

  Is there a "cut out" function in Gimp - like the one in ShareX
Posted by: k_dueholm - 09-01-2023, 11:56 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hi.

I love the ShareX function called "Cut out" - where you can cut out a middle section of an image and then it automatically merges the left/right or upper/lower parts of the image (see attached screenshot from ShareX).

Can this be done just as easily with GIMP?
