  Make tools dialog floating by default?
Posted by: mrkid - 09-07-2025, 02:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hi! Is there some way to make the dialogs that appear when, by example, you want rotate an image, float instead of be kind off docked, and they remember their positions? Is annoying when rotating or some other tools, the options of the tool become attached to the upper right corner. Usually it cover something i want to see. I need to detach it and move the window outside the canvas to be able to see what im actually rotating.

  Blender Texture Paint with animated brushes
Posted by: mholder - 09-07-2025, 11:41 AM - Forum: Other graphics software - Replies (1)

There is a Blender addon called "Animated Texture Brush" available from Blender's official extensions.

   

It let the user open an image sequence, where the name of the images are something like:

brush_01.png
brush_02.png
brush_03.png
.....

And then the brush randomly paints the tip in the stroke.

  Coincidence or not, that is the question
Posted by: Krikor - 09-07-2025, 06:43 AM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (1)

Hello everyone!
What a coincidence. Today, just now, a little before 3:00 AM, I was thinking about this phenomenon: eclipses, when I suddenly decided to explore the subject further. Even after a few seconds, maybe even 1 or 2 minutes, of looking at the lunar eclipse calendar and looking at the information about the next lunar eclipse, I realized it will occur TODAY!!
These coincidences leave me incredulous.

How can I explain such a coincidence?
Have you ever experienced a similar situation?

Oh! And just to add a little more information, the next solar eclipse will be on the 21st of this month (September 21st).

  Can Gimp include the path info in some image format?
Posted by: mrkid - 09-07-2025, 12:37 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi! I read somewhere that tiff, and jpeg2000 can include the mask paths info in the file itself. Im working in scribus and looking the way to make the wrap around images the more easier possible. This would be a great thing, but appear that Gimp cant do that, but not sure if is possible in v3.

  G'mic Flatpak missing in 3.0.4 Flatpak.
Posted by: mholder - 09-06-2025, 02:32 PM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (8)

I have both Flatpak Gimp ver 3.0.4 and G'mic Flatpak. I am not seeing G'mic in filters-> anymore.

My list of Flakpak programs has G'mic there, and it is updated.

Also, the Flatpak Resynthesizer is also missing.

Any idea why?

  How can I install Gimp 2.8 on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1?
Posted by: GIMP Devil - 09-06-2025, 12:01 AM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (7)

Hello, I'm thinking of switching back to Gimp 2.8 like I did on Windows 7 and it worked like a charm, but the new Gimp 2.10 I got on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1 Software Manager seems to have some functionalities like indexed mode I was really use to completely broken.

Is there a way I can download Gimp 2.8 on Linux Mint? I didn't see it in the Software Manager there was only 2.10 and I assume an even newer version..
I do have the installer for Gimp 2.8 I used on Windows 7 which probably can be run with Wine, but I would prefer not to do that because from my experience it seems everything that's run with Wine on Linux seems a lot laggier and choppier than it was on Windows 7 which is not good for when I want to draw...

If there's an AppImage of Gimp 2.8 I would prefer that because those are convenient and have everything they need to run, I looked on the official Gimp site and it said it had a download for 2.8, but it would always redirect me to Gimp 2.10 on the Software Manager so I assume it's not on the official site.

  Setting images to indexed mode on Gimp 2.10 is completely broken.
Posted by: GIMP Devil - 09-05-2025, 11:55 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I really need help this is really stressing and frustrating me.

I have been on Windows 7 for the longest time and using Gimp 2.8 with no hassle and it was very easy and comfortable, I now recently "upgraded" to Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1 and installed Gimp 2.10.36 from the Software Manager on it.

Now I like drawing sprite art on a transparent background and when it's done I index the sprite art because it makes it to a very small filesize which makes me happy, on Windows 7 Gimp 2.8 this was super easy I would just select the indexed mode and apply it and bam it would index the image with no issue at all.


Now on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1 and Gimp 2.10 (I don't know if Linux is causing this problem or Gimp is) when I try to index an image with transparency it completely messes up the saved image!

This is just an example of an indexed image I happen to have it's of a Charizard sprite, as you can see the original indexed image from Gimp 2.8 on Win7 is completely fine and has its transparency and is a super low filesize.
[attachment=13873]

Now when I open that image in Gimp 2.10 and do absolutely no changes except export it as a new image look at what happens to it!
[attachment=13874]


Now here's the weird thing, if I add a solid color background (like white for example) to the original image then export it the colors don't get corrupted, but the filesize is still massive! [attachment=13875]
I'm at a loss for what to do.. did gimp 2.10 just completely break indexed mode or maybe it's the version of gimp on the Linux Mint Software Manager?

Somebody please help Sad

  Has anyone had problems using Desaturate>Color to gray as FX?
Posted by: mrkid - 09-05-2025, 06:08 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi! Im having some issues when using the Desaturate>color to gray as an FX. If i note merge and leave it as FX, it dont show accurately the edition. Plus, gimp become unstable, and even it delet some portions of the canvas until i shut it and restart. No problem with other fx, at least im aware. Im on windows 10. I will try to see if this happen in linux.

  Create Variants of the Project
Posted by: AlterPhoto_free_photo_editor - 09-05-2025, 11:25 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Is it possible in GIMP to create variants (versions) of the project? Sometimes it is not convenient to have several files for one project.
