  Is there a gimp plugin that automatically removes the background of an image?
Posted by: eru777 - 03-09-2023, 03:02 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (6)

I'm looking for something like what this website does, but for gimp. It will save me hours for work.

I don't mind if it is paid or not

  Undo Operations in a Script
Posted by: BaconWizard17 - 03-08-2023, 11:57 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (4)

Is it possible to have a script that can undo its own actions in the middle of operating? For example:
- An image with layers A, B, and C
- Hide layer C
- Flatten image
- Export image
- Undo the flattening and hiding to get the image back to its original state
- Hide layer B
- Flatten image
- Export image

I know that undo groups can be used to manually undo several steps of a script simultaneously after the script runs, but I wasn't sure if the script could undo its own actions automatically (mainly irreversible ones, like flattening the image or indexing colors).

  Forum design - the two main types
Posted by: Tas_mania - 03-08-2023, 09:44 PM - Forum: Gimp-Forum.net - Replies (2)

I use a few different forums and notice they are set-up into 2 main types. On a forum like Gimp Chat any post or comment on a post goes to the top of the landing page. On Gimp-Forum the landing page shows a list of sections and sub-forums and the most recent sub-forum activity goes to the top of that sub-form. 

I think forum design affects users and their behavior. On 'the most recent first' forums people are encouraged to form alliances in order to promote content. At times it looks like promoting content is more important that the content itself. Recently the landing page was mostly posts by one author.
On the 'list of sections' forums people can ignore sub-forums they are not interested in. Having one author appear in every sub-forum would appear ridiculous.
So I think Gimp-Forum is the better design even if it does not appear so frantic most of the time Smile

  Cleaning up gray mess around text?
Posted by: HavingTooMuchFun - 03-07-2023, 09:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

[Image: gray-mess.jpg]

I've got a whole document that looks like this; the text is faded, and there's this pale gray… CLOUD... around it. Anything I do to try to fade or remove the cloud makes the text worse; the light areas of text are just too close to the color of the cloud. Darkening the text also darkens the cloud for the same reason. There's got to be a way, though, right…?

Wink Deform image to a specific shape (e.g. ellipse)
Posted by: jugoslav - 03-07-2023, 06:28 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

Hi
Absolutely new to gimp.
0% experience, never used, mot even installed.
Want to use it if one thing is possible.

Is it possible to deform, distort, wrap, do not know right word a photo, usually rectangular shape, but lets say any shape, to a different shape, in this case I would like an ellipse, so the entire photo is deformed, something like stretching a rubber?

So in short any shape photo transform to any other shape deforming the whole photo, not short enough, sorry.

Thank you

Python ofn-path-to-cylinder
Posted by: Ofnuts - 03-06-2023, 10:32 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (18)

Here comes ofn-path-to-cylinder, hopefully a faster and easier way to map a path (text/logo) over a cylinder.

   

Comes with a big doc (took me longer to write the doc than the code...).

As you would have guessed you can download it from here.

Enjoy.

Gegl Source Code for all my GEGL Filters
Posted by: BeaverGEGLFreak - 03-06-2023, 02:39 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (10)

This is the same as content found on the page https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/

It is the source code to over thirty GEGL Plugins I have made.  I recommend going to Github to get them but having all the code in one place is also a good idea. 

Instruction here to compile for both Linux and Windows.
---------------

OS specific location to put GEGL Filter binaries
Windows C:\Users<YOUR NAME>\AppData\Local\gegl-0.4\plug-ins

Linux /home/(USERNAME)/.local/share/gegl-0.4/plug-ins

Linux (Flatpak) /home/(USERNAME)/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/data/gegl-0.4/plug-ins
[/url]
Compiling and Installing
[url=https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/GEGL-Effects---Layer-Effects-in-Gimp-using-GEGL#linux]

Linux
To compile and install you will need the GEGL header files (

Code:
libgegl-dev
on Debian based distributions or
Code:
gegl
on Arch Linux) and meson (
Code:
meson

on most distributions).
meson setup --buildtype=release build
ninja -C build


Windows
The easiest way to compile this project on Windows is by using msys2. Download and install it from here: https://www.msys2.org/
Open a msys2 terminal with
Code:
C:\msys64\mingw64.exe
. Run the following to install required build dependencies:
pacman --noconfirm -S base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-x86_64-meson mingw-w64-x86_64-gegl
Then build the same way you would on Linux:
meson setup --buildtype=release build
ninja -C build

  HUH?
Posted by: sallyanne - 03-04-2023, 05:57 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I startd with a 200px x 200px canvas to try something out.
All of a sudden the canvas is over 2000 square. When I typed the numbers in for the first 200 it went down to 199.x so the other did the same. Not sure why.
I am trying out a recursive transform on something - Why has the canvas gone almost 10 times the size?
Just noticed it is showing mm at the bottom. could that be it?

Gegl Glossy Balloon Text Styling Filter
Posted by: BeaverGEGLFreak - 03-03-2023, 03:24 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

Have fun with this silly filter that is glossy and balloonish. You are expected to rasterize text then apply this filter.
