Hi,

I need to convert a graph (and other similar ones) to B&W/grayscale. It's a typical line graph showing different plots with different colours (see attached). Converting to grayscale reduces the readability as the 5 lines become more or less indistinguishable. I cannot recreate the images in the analysis program with different line settings.

My idea was that I could make one line dark, one line light, one line dotted, one line dashed, and one line dot-dashed then convert. Other than laboriously doing it by hand (selecting the colour then using the eraser) with all the imperfections that will give, I can't think of any other way.

Any suggestions? What I need is a tool that replaces the selected colour with a dotted/dashed line.

Thanks for any help.

The air brush and clone tool changed from smooth to a hard circle. Did I change this by accident?

Hi, over the last 6 months GIMP has been doing strange things.
Today I went to the 'open as layer' option in the 'file' tab and I couldn't see any of the image files I wanted to use.
They were there when I closed GIMP and checked in my documents.

I've also had big problems with the 'select by color' option in the 'select' tab. Sometimes when it does select, if it does at all, it won't deselect afterward. 

I have a Mac monteray 12.6.2

The lastest version of GIMP is installed, too.

A newbie here with hopefully a quick easy question. I don't know what I am doing, but I try.

I have two files, animated.gif and image.png and I want to make a gif that combines the two. The image.png is larger than the gif and I want the gif in the middle. I tried copy paste and I only got one panel of the animated gif. I tried other things and then the image flashed with the gif.

Is it possible to put a gif in the middle of a static image? If so how?

thanks for the help

The two answers to my former questions helped me out. Thank you. My next problem is when I select a part of my image I can't work in that selection. I want to change size and color, mirror it or move it like once whas so easy in my unfortunately lost Photoshop.

Like a little popup explaining that it will not export back as a multi-page pdf, but to a flattened one-page pdf.

Hello everybody

Since I use Gimp 2.10.32 (with MacOS), I am discovering some disagreements.

The last one is when I use antialiasing on text. The letters earn a blue shape and loose the frank white.
Someone knows why ?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I've found lots of vidoes/tutorials on how to bulk apply a watermark with BIMP etc...but how do you create one?

Many Thanks

Someone who knows the logic / systematics for when GIMP color the entire images (i.e. all layers) and when it is only the active layer? (with tools like "pencil"
For me it's a matter of luck. So once in a while I'm lucky: That is-  if I only want to color within an active layer, then it is also what happens
But.... I'd like to be able to be in control of the situation myself ;

Hi, I'm a gimp novice & would appreciate some help.  I have 2 photos: a nice portrait with a poor background & a photo with a lovely lighthouse & bay at dusk.  Using intelliigent sissors I've clipped the person's portrait in first photo & have it as a layer w/checkerboard background.   I have the background photo as a layer & then position the portrait into the photo w/lighthouse background.    The background photo has the flashing dotted lines of the portrait silhouette but image isn't completely visible only the very bottom of the portrait which I moved to get the lighthouse into view, even when I "chain" them together.  The portrait & the background are  where I want them but cant seem to get the entire portrait to become visible.   Could someone please suggest a solution as this is my first time gimping or perhaps order of ops from the beginning. Please be overly explicit in explaining.  Thank you!!
