  Make a part of the image bulge
Posted by: meetdilip - 08-03-2021, 12:02 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Is it possible to make a part of the image bulge like in a 3D sticker ? Say there is a sword in the image, can we make it bulge out from the rest of the image ? Thanks.

  Tools or plugins for numerically editing colors?
Posted by: myocytebd - 08-02-2021, 12:20 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Is there a tool or plugin to enable manual color transform?
I means, transform color of selected regions numerically, based on fixed formula, or scripting/coding.
For example, in the simplest form, something like out.alpha = in.alpha * 0.75.
In more advanced form, also being able to read nearby pixels or any pixels.

  GMIC preview error
Posted by: meetdilip - 08-02-2021, 06:15 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (6)

I am getting errors like this on almost all GMIC previews. Brushify shows the preview if it matters. Thanks.

  GMIC
Posted by: meetdilip - 08-02-2021, 06:07 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (10)

I am using default 20.04. I wonder whether it is possible to use the latest GMIC and associated features.

Does a default 20.04 support the latest of GIMP ? I am using an App image suggested through this forum. I currently use @rich2005 provided GMIC, which I was told is a custom one and was added manually. The app image is GIMP + plugins. Thanks.

  Text has sharp edges
Posted by: meetdilip - 08-02-2021, 06:04 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

I recently tried to make a banner. The background was nice, but I guess antialiasing with very visible steps like blocks is really hard to miss. Especially when the image size is not small. Is there anything we can do about this ? Thanks.

  print.exe crashed
Posted by: Punchcard - 08-02-2021, 01:22 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (3)

Windows 7 Home Premium X64
GIMP 2.10.24 (Revision 3)

After I changed print size, and clicked on File/Print..., print.exe crashed.
I had directed printing to PDFXchange Lite, to produce a PDF file.

Any thoughts on what I can look for?

Gimp reported:
  Plug-in crashed: "print.exe"
  (C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\print\print.exe)

There is a message box:

  Printing Progress
  Spooling
  [A52070_XBD] (imported)

I cannot make the message box close.  (I don't know which executable made it.)

A52070_XBD.tif size on disk is 1.55 GB

In Print Size, I set Print Size to 6.00 x 6.189 inches, which made
X, Y resolution 3872.5, 3872.5 pixels/in.

From Image Properties:

Size in pixels: 23235 x 23968 pixels
File Size: 1.7 GB
Size in memory: 5.2 GB
Number of Pixels: 556896480

  Float Selection Feathering/Transparency
Posted by: nodex - 08-01-2021, 06:19 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello guys,

I can't remember when I first encountered this, but I think it was when 2.10 released. Why does the Select>Float function feather the edges of the selection? The previous versions were hard splits, now once you float, there is transparency between the old and new layers.

Is there a way to turn this off?

Is floating a selection not the best way?

  Gimp 2.10 Text Justification.
Posted by: rich2005 - 08-01-2021, 04:16 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - No Replies

The GIMP acronym should be changed to Gimp Is no Text Editor

The text tool justification options are there in the Tool Options.

  Why no text justify?
Posted by: OurJud - 08-01-2021, 12:56 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi. Using the latest version. Can anyone explain why the devs haven’t implemented text justification yet? I see the option is there in the alignment choices, but it doesn’t function. I found a short article (not sure how old) that explained the option had been added as a placeholder, but never implemented. What’s the problem??

  Poorly rendered text
Posted by: OurJud - 08-01-2021, 10:27 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

First some context. I’ve been designing fictitious cigarette packs as props, to use alongside a series of vintage Zippo photos I’m doing. I design them as flat templates then print them off before building them as physical packs.

However, because much of the text I use needs to be fairly small (especially for the sides of the packs) I find the quality is pretty terrible by the time I’m ready to print. I think my display could be emphasising the poor quality (it’s a 50” TV I use for gaming) but even so the quality of the text when printed is still very poor.

Is there anything I can do to render the text at a higher resolution and quality?
