  pixelize tool clipping option missing?
Posted by: SledgeS5 - 05-16-2021, 07:48 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

[Image: pixelize-options.png]
This is the Pixelise tool shown in the documentation for 2.10 here: gimp 2.10 pixelise tool help

But I can't find this clipping option for this tool in gimp 2.10 for windows 10 x64 or 2.99 for win10 x64.

Am I missing something? Does the documentation show some features that don't exist yet? Is this only available on different platforms?

It looks really ugly having semi-pixels at the edges of the selection.

  How do I load a selection from a channel?
Posted by: gib65 - 05-15-2021, 04:41 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hello,

I recent created a very complex selection. Then I saved the selection to channel. My selection then disappeared. I don't know how to get it back.

I assumed that this is my saved selection:

   

But I'm not sure what to do to load the selection into the image. Right-clicking on the selection gives me this context menu:

   

The most obvious item is "Channel to Selection" but that did nothing.

How do I get my selection back? Thanks.

  Set image canvas size aspect ratio
Posted by: rjhuber - 05-14-2021, 10:40 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Is there a way to set the aspect ratio default in the set image canvas size? Everywhere I read says that it should default to linked. Mine does not.

Also, if I reopen the dialog box again after clicking resize, it does not retain the linked status.

  Issue with copy/paste and scaling
Posted by: harasnicole - 05-14-2021, 07:30 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I don't know if it's something I did without realizing it or something else, but every time I try to copy an entire image and paste it to the transparent background that I have waiting in another tab, the image is really closely cropped and I can't scale the image without it looking stretched anymore. I use GIMP to make thumbnails for YouTube. I don't really explore much in the software, just sticking to the things that I'm familiar with.

If it helps, my OS is Windows 10, 64-bit.

Also, here's a screenshot of what I mean:

I'd like to cut a face of someone and paste onto another, they have different skin colors

Would you please highlight me the key steps I'll probably need?

  Photo to emoji
Posted by: meetdilip - 05-13-2021, 02:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I have seen some Apple emojis which is face to emojis. I wonder whether there is any plugin or feature that we can use to convert a Photo into a not real-life face.

If I can get anything close enough, it will be ok to put some effort and make it look like this. Thanks.


This service looks very promising

This is kind of paid, but we can take screenshots. Not perfect, but works for my use case.

  Undeletable multi-page tif files
Posted by: rich2005 - 05-11-2021, 09:14 AM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

A multi-page tagged image format (tif / tiff) becomes undeletable in Windows. Apparently it is the embedded thumbnails in the tif file which screws up Windows Explorer.

The best solution from the Gimp developers is prevention. Export the tif file with thumbnails disabled. Untick the thumbnails option.

   

What can you do if you have an "undeletable" tif file. Not straight forward in Windows for any undeletable file
1. Right click in the task bar to open Windows task manager.
2. Locate  Windows Explorer and End Task.
3. Use the file option  
4. Open a command shell
5. Find and delete the tif file(s)
Get the desktop back using File -> Run New Task -> explorer.

   


A 5 minute video going through that. https://youtu.be/B_jKnaWFXCQ





Spot the mistake at the end Wink I deleted the wrong file. Should have been thumbnail.tif file. Always be careful.

Do not be put off by your Windows computer black command shell, I changed the colours to make it easier to see in the video.
The commands used 
cmd - starts the command shell
cd is change directory (directory = folder) 
cd.. (cd-dot-dot) is go up one level
dir (directory listing)
dir *.tif filters out the tiff files
del (delete) as del filename.tif
