Please can anyone tell me how do I place a white border around an image that has a white surrounding area, and then another coloured border ?
I thought it would be as easy to insert a white border first and then another larger coloured (colored) border, however the white border has a differently shaded area along 2 sides with a mitre in one corner.
Hello everyone. I would like to know if anyone knows a way to save the undo history (for now, I still have to write down the steps of my work in a notebook).
I have been installing fonts for years. They have always been successful. However, for some reason it's not working anymore.
I go into gimp/setting/folders/font
It shows where I need to place these new fonts
It says that it should be in:
Users/donald/Library/Application support/GIMP/2.10/fonts
As you can see by the screenshot that 123Marker.ttf is in this directory
Hiya absolutely new to GIMP but could someone tell me why I can't export an image that has a top layer set as alpha, it just comes out black and not like how it looks in the work area
I have a script that does some selects and cuts based on color.
Code:
image = pyi.file_load(r'/windows/projects/5150/Graphic Prefabs for Maps/geomorphs/hi-res/dead_parrot/legend/blank/4cb2d3ac-a815-4728-a8a1-0fac1e5e1e6f-018.png')
color = Gegl.Color.new("black")
pyi.file_save(image, r'/windows/projects/5150/Graphic Prefabs for Maps/geomorphs/hi-res/dead_parrot/test/end.png')
pyi.gimp_selection_none(image)
pyi.image_delete(image)
color.do_dispose()
del color
pyi.gimp_quit(False)
When run it either reports 1 or 2 leaked buffers. I have tried to dispose of the color item but have as yet been unsuccessful. When run without any color creation like this, it runs with no buffer leaks.
Well i guess that the cylinders will be placed on the drawing panel in GIMP so that we have them ( lets say we take the number of 10 cylinders ) - all over the drawing panel.
then - in a second step i try to draw the line - and thirdly
Well - i think that we can do this with the GIMP. This would be a somewhat difficult task because the shadow would be hard to achieve...
What do you say!?
well unfortunatley i am not allowed to add any data.
everytime i add a image i get this:
Request Entity Too Large
The requested resource does not allow request data with POST requests, or the amount of data provided in the request exceeds the capacity limit.
so what can i do now!? shouold (/could) i add some images to imgur
The image: CR2 file. The system: Win 11. Display profile: none.
No processing was applied in any of the images listed below.
I compared the following:
-CR2 file opened in RawTherapee
-and subsequently opened in GIMP
-GIF export from GIMP, viewed in Photos & GIMP
-JPG export from GIMP, viewed in Photos & GIMP
-TIFF export from GIMP, viewed in GIMP
-CR2 file opened in DPP4, (Digital Photo Professional)
-TIFF created in DPP4, viewed in Photos & GIMP
CR2 file opened in PW8, (Picture Window 8)
-TIFF created in PW8 viewed, in Photos & GIMP
All these images match in terms of color and lightness (they are identical, at least to my eyes).
The TIFF files created in GIMP, DPP4 and PW6 all can be opened in GIMP and look the same.
The TIFF file created in GIMP can be opened in Photos, but the luminosity is off (the image is much lighter). The TIFF file created in GIMP can't, however, be opened in DPP4 or in PW8.
Conclusion: there is some problem with file conversion in GIMP3.0.2. The TIFF standard is not supported to the extent that it can be opened with different photo processing software. Neither DPP4 nor PW8 have this problem: their respective TIFF files are fully interchangeable, produce identical images using all processing software or image viewers - but can't be opened in GIMP...
This looks like a bug to me (unless there is some sensible explanation), but I am not sure how to report this...
I just installed GIMP 3.0 on Windows 11 and am blown away by its new power. I don't recall turning off the Welcome Screen and would not know about it if I hadn't seen it in a YouTube video. I want to change the size of the text. How can I turn that Welcome Screen on again? Or is there another way to alter font size?
I like the new incarnation of GIMP very, very much
But there are some things which maybe could be clarified for me by more experienced users (I am new to GIMP, tried the previous versions and found them difficult ad somewhat confusing, but this one is really good - from the GUI perspective at least). I used Photoshop extensively in the past - and converted to GIMP after ADOBE decided to cancel my "lifetime" license (comp crashed, lost Photoshop, couldn't re-install as the license servers are off-line).
1) COLOR MANAGEMENT (GIMP 3.0.2)
-The way I understand it, monitor profile is specified in Edit - Preferences - Color Management - Monitor profile. Selecting the monitor profile here will affect the image view in the main window (yes/no). Currently I see no difference between calibrated and uncalibrated monitor (but the profile created with i1 Pro wasn't much different from the manufacturer profile anyway, so maybe this is OK. My monitor was spot-on straight out of the box BTW).
-There is no option for specifying printer profile anywhere (yes/no). Printer profile (paper) is specified in the printer setup (yes/no)
2) SOFT PROOFING
I am a bit confused here.
-'View - Color Management - Proof Colors (on/off)' appears to just activate the option for soft proofing in 'Image - Color Management - Soft proof Profile'. This seems to be somewhat redundant, as by default the option in 'Image - Color Management - Soft proof Profile' is set to "None". Selecting any profile other than "None" should activate soft proofing. IMHO this redundancy should be removed, as it is confusing and superfluous.
-It would be nice if it was possible to remove profiles from the list. Currently GIMP remembers all the profiles selected in any Color Management. Selection of the profile is done by either LEFT or RIGHT mouse click on a profile in the list. Why ? It would be nice if the right click enabled removal of the profile from the list instead of selecting it. Otherwise the list will be a kilometer long (OK, I am exaggerating, but still...)
Had earlier problems, I could not get Gimp to interact with Darktable or Rawtherapee to import my Canon raw files. I was just starting to Learn how to use those programs to create a usable file that Gimp would recognize and import. The PP3 format was not working so I was using the tiff files but now a new problem.
today Gimp 3.0 would not load. the icon was present and the little wheel would spin for a bit but the program would not start. I next tried to open a file using the "open with" function and clicking on Gimp in the drop down. Same thing, spinning wheel and then nothing. I tried to reboot and no joy. I tried a complete shut down and no good. I uninstalled gimp and tried a reinstall, no good. I tried both a snap version and one from the website. I have gone back to 2.10 and it works and I can again import raw files via DT and RT. Not sure what the issue might be and I don't really need the newest bells and whistles to do what I want so I am going to stick with my current version, but I wondered if anyone else has experienced a similar issue and how it was resolved.
