Hello,

My wife and I enjoy creating stained glass projects.

Is there a way of opening an image in GIMP and then convert it to outlines of the image?

Typically in stained glass patterns there is a 3mm line that represents the thickness of the soldered areas connecting the various glass pieces together.

say for instance, that I opened an image of a birdhouse in GIMP. 

would it be possible to have that image converted so that there are outlines of all objects within that image?


thank you all

Well, I began working on a wrapper for the default gimp-vectors-export-to-file, but
-- The option 'export all paths' doesn't work from a plugin, likely for the same reason as the bug in my previous tread
-- Anyway, I wish to export just my 'selected paths', to a single file, and not merged, but as individual paths in a single SVG file.

Well, as can be seen from the attachment, I got 'almost' there by using xml.etree.ElementTree--the trouble is I cannot get it to save to svg without mangling the file by adding a nsO: namespace to every tag.

Inkscape and Chrome can cope with the mangled file, but Gimp CANNOT--and one cannot find fault with that!

Is there some alternative to reprocessing the whole file (maybe as a string?) and removing all those spurious nsO:?

Thanks!

I installed the newest GIMP version and downloaded the latest G'MIC version and put it in the plug-ins folder. However I get this error when opening GIMP or running the gmic_gimp_qt binary.

“libX11.6.dylib” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

Is this just a case of Catalina compatibility?

In the attachment, 2 Gimp plugins to do similar things: 
beginning from a multi-layered xcf file, with o without an active selection, copy visible and export the result as:
1. webp -- workaround for a (reported) bug in GIMP 10
2. indexed png
Plugin 1 works without trouble, and so 2 for 8 bit perceptual.
Now, other precisions cannot be converted to indexed directly, so I am trying workarounds--and always find myself against

I have Gimp 2.10 on a new machine running Linux mint,

Im trying to open a .svg file but Gimp is not recognising the svg image size and defaulting to 500x500. I have used these files many times in the past and know they work.

In the past on my old machine (unbuntu 16.04) it recognised the image size and im able to set a width or height and the other variable changes automatically.

Anybody have any ideas?

Many Thanks

Hi,

I am using the bucket tool but instead of filling with the chosen color it fills with a lighter tone. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks,

Hello
when I open the colour menu I always change over to HSV
Much prefer if it open up on the HSV instead of the LCh selector,

Is there any way to set HSV as the default instead of LCh

Using Linux if that's needed info.

Thanks in advance.

Good afternoon guys,

So as the title of this post reads I want to know the simplest and quickest way to make this type of design in either gimp of Inkscape.

Keep in mind I need to make some areas transparent so that the natural color of the t-shirt can come thru as seen in the design.
(The clover I am not concerned with obviously)


This will be designed for a t-shirt.

Thanks!

Hello,
Does anybody know where GIMP stores this palette history?
Everytime I use GIMP new colours are added and never emptied.
Useless for me, so how can I delete it or at least empty it every now and then?

Cheers

Im currently doing some work on a 3D model, for some texture work on the wooden puppet i wanted to create a texture that makes its face paint look like it was physically painted by someone using a paint brush, including the streaks and build up of paints that can occur.

IE like these

I have looked into brushes but the issues with those seems to be that the brushes are just a PNG of a brush stroke of my images above, and not something i can dynamically paint with to fit a shape.


So im wondering if there is anyway to recreate, or create a more dynamic brush that can create this type of effect when i paint with it?
