  Unified Transform Tool
Posted by: sallyanne - 09-21-2023, 02:12 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Is there a tutorial here on how this tool can be utilised. I am pretty sure I have seen it talked about on here. I know I could probably find one at You Tube but yours would be sufficient. Don't need to go to Davies Media for all my info.

  Automate an action
Posted by: Gypsie38 - 09-20-2023, 11:53 AM - Forum: Scripting questions - No Replies

Hi, I wish to automate an action that takes actually 6 click, to only 2 clicks , This is what I'm thinkinf of :
I click on a new "button" (I need your help to create it) that opens a setting windows. Then I can choose a kind of shape (circle/ellipse/square) to draw a shape on an image, then click on valid. The result is a blur added on the shape

(Instead of clicking on the shape button in the tool box, then select a zone on the image, then click on the Filters menu, then click on Blur, then click on Gaussian blur, then choose the level of blur, then valid.)

Thanks for your help (I don't know anything about programming!

Question How to make part of a texture Invisible or Fully Transparent in DDS files?
Posted by: Reefus - 09-20-2023, 08:01 AM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

I've been searching for an answer to this for a few days now. Though none of the suggested methods seems to work. 

I'm just editing a Diffuse map and want to clear a certain texture element so it appears invisible in-game. The frustrating thng is, no matter what I do to the selection nothing ever changes. 

I've tried deleting, erasing, manipulating the layers, adding masks, adjusting transparency thresholds, but the texture is completely unphased by it. 

To offer more context, it's a Diffuse.dds texture file which I've been editing successfully. It all works in-game, even the specularity. I just can't figure out how to make parts of the texture invisible or transparent. 

The texture file already has an Alpha and only one layer, the Diffuse.dds. There also exists a Normal map for this object, which just looks like purple nonsense to me. I haven't done much experimenting with that file. 

Anyone have an idea what is going on here?

  Toggle drawing area to the most widely as possible
Posted by: lenainjaune - 09-18-2023, 08:14 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (18)

Hi all, I have just registered  Smile !

As I discovered a way to draw from an external device (Weylus - to turn a smartphone or tablet into a sort of network digitizer tablet), I search a way to extend the drawing area in full-screen without any other features/display (menu bar, status bar, rulers, etc.). I know we can toggle these individually, but I am looking for a solution to do it in a "one-button" way, some sort of meta-display function that we can bind to a single short key to toggle.

Is it possible from Gimp by script or other feature or must I search a solution from desktop automation tool like Autokey in Linux (or AutoHotkey in Windows) ?

Thank you in advance for the time you will spend to me Wink .

  Plugins for speed up texture creation
Posted by: autobot - 09-17-2023, 07:42 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - No Replies

Do you know any useful GIMP plugins (or external software) that speed up texture creation for Blender?

Especially I mean: manual editing PBR textures.
There are some tools to do it in 3d, there are node based generators,
but I can't found anything to manually paint multiple images at once in 2D.


For example I set one brush to have: height 0.5 , roughness 0.1, metallic 1, and green color and, when I paint, all images will be painted with expected values. (or paint with different pbr textures)


I know there is InsaneBump plugin but it is for generate additional maps from image, not for editing.


Also I'm looking for something (GIMP plugin or external program) for packing PBR texture atlases.
Auto-packing  is not necessary,  Most important for me is ability to manually positioning many islands.

If there is nothing like this, maybe I inspire someone of GIMP developers with this idea  :-)

  AI plugin GIMP-ML install with GIMP portable[Win7,8,10)
Posted by: autobot - 09-17-2023, 12:29 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (3)

Hello there.
I recently found this plugin:
https://github.com/kritiksoman/GIMP-ML

But I'm not sure how to install it.

I'm using GIMP 2.10 portableapps version, which I copy sometimes to different PCs (home, work, friends, family etc.)
And I'd like this plugin to also be portable.
Also I run my GIMP portable install on different systems (WIn7, Win8, Win10).

I found also different version, that has more detailed instruction for Windows:
https://github.com/valgur/GIMP-ML-Hub

But it's also not I want. Because it require using powershell and installng something called Miniconda (admin rights?)
I'd like fully portable install on USB stick that uses only relative paths (ability to copy to C:\GIMP which is SSD for faster work or D:\Programs\GIMP or something)

Regards

  how to PERMANENTLY disable "recently used"
Posted by: denno - 09-17-2023, 03:35 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (2)

What it says!

I have turned up a 2015 thread on emptying the recently used list; but it fills up again.
I'd like the program not to keep that list at all.  Also seems the list on the side of the working screen and the list that is a category under "open" in the "file" drop-down are separate things, programmatically.

TIA

  Flattening Image and keeping transparency.
Posted by: Tirisilex - 09-16-2023, 01:30 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (1)

Every time I flatten my transparent image it puts a white background onto it. How can I flatten an image without this problem?
