Question Portable - correct way to create folders?
Posted by: Krikor - 09-10-2021, 09:48 PM - Forum: Installation and usage - Replies (7)

Hello Guys!

I use Gimp Sam'j Portable, having one copy on PC and another on my USB Flash Drive (Pendrive).

The problem is that whenever I use the pendrive on a different PC I need to re-enter the path for each folder to gimp ; Patterns, Brushes, Scripts, Plug-ins, etc.

This routine is laborious, boring and discouraging.  Sad

I usually use the Pendrive with my laptop, so ok, I don't need to change anything, the path only needed to be informed once.

Is there an ideal way (folder) where I can put my files and they will be automatically detected even if I use Pendrive on several PCs?

Thank you very much.

  resample with constrained proportions
Posted by: TooManyTimeZones - 09-10-2021, 07:32 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have an image that is the correct size (length and width) but it is only 98 dpi.  Before printing, I need to resample the image to increase it to 150 dpi without changing the size.   Photoshop has this capability ("constrain proportions"), but I can't figure out how to do it in GIMP.  

Is this possible in GIMP?

  Erase edges from repeat pattern
Posted by: Huda - 09-09-2021, 10:27 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I'm new here so apologies if this has already been addressed. 

Is there a way to erase the edges in a repeat pattern to create a seamless pattern? The below link shows an example of what I mean - it's the white edges that I want erased.

Thanks for any help!  Cool

  Spheres Rendering Invisible
Posted by: Pink Peony - 09-09-2021, 10:27 PM - Forum: Older Gimp versions (2.8, 2.6....) - Replies (1)

I'm trying to learn to use the Sphere Designer to make simple spheres.  I made several and was happy with them, but now, the spheres always render invisible.  They appear normally in the Preview pane, but when I click "OK," there is just a plain checkered background.

I have already clicked Reset and restarted GIMP.  They still render invisible.  I expect I've changed some kind of setting, but I don't know what it was. 

One thing I know I played around with was the second color.  (Orange spheres had an unpleasant blue tint I was trying to get rid of.  I've set the second color back to black, so I don't think that's causing the invisibility problem.) 

Help would be very much appreciated.

I figured it out.  In the box for creating a new image, I had selected "Grayscale" for Color Space.  Changing it to RGB fixed it.  Thank you.

  Preserving Customizations if needing to Reinstall?
Posted by: gravanoc - 09-08-2021, 01:47 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Whenever I launch GIMP I get about 8 runtime errors, non-critical, that I think are related to plugins.  I read elsewhere that the best bet is to reinstall to fix such nuisance errors.  However, I'm concerned about how to preserve any customizations I've made, hotkeys, etc.  I know of the MenuRC file, so perhaps I can make a copy of that and set it in an unrelated folder, then paste it back into the GIMP folder after installing.  The rest I'm not sure about.  Thanks for any help.

Source photo is not too good (Andalusia's skies aren't that blue in later October), but works OK as a demo of how to keep the center intact with Filters ➤ Distorts ➤ Waves.
