  Cursor offset problem
Posted by: CharType - 01-20-2018, 10:49 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (3)

I'm having a problem with GIMP where the selection on my screen is significantly above where my mouse cursor is. This doesn't happen 100% of the time but it happens frequently, and usually right after I open GIMP.  I have attached a screenshot that shows what I mean. This seems like a bug. Is there a way to fix this, or should I submit a bug report? Thanks.

I am using GIMP 2.8.18 on macOS Sierra 10.12.6.

  Batch files
Posted by: Pat625 - 01-20-2018, 08:49 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (6)

I am seeking a Batch file program for Gimp 2.8.22 and Windows 10,   I have never used one before and will need some instruction.  Searching for one to make it easier while working on fonts for adjusting coloring, using a bevel tool, or maybe embossing.  My search tells me Bimp comes with Gimp but I cannot find it.  Not listed in the Plug in search browser.  Any suggestions as to what to use and where to get it?  Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

  Drawing with the brush creates jagged lines
Posted by: Mustardman523 - 01-20-2018, 04:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Hi,

This is a problem that seems like it came out of nowhere, and I have no idea how to solve it. Whenever I use the brush tool and try to draw anything using my mouse, what comes on the screen is a horribly jagged line. See below for an example:

   

I thought it might be because "Snap to Grid" in the View menu was turned on, but it wasn't. Turning that on only made it worse:

   

I don't have the most steady hand, but there's no way it's that bad. So what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance!

  How to Create and Include Signature?
Posted by: Chaplain Mark - 01-20-2018, 04:32 AM - Forum: Gimp-Forum.net - Replies (2)

Hello,

This is my second post here as a new member.

I have attempted a search on my query "signatures" and not found any results, so let me ask....

How does one go about creating and including a signature for one's posts?
I poked around in the User Control Panel options, but could not find anything about signatures.

Thanks in advance...!!

  Need Advice on Plugin Installation
Posted by: Chaplain Mark - 01-20-2018, 04:28 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (10)

Hello,

This is my first post here on Gimp-Forum.net.  Have attempted a search of the forums, with no results, prior to posting this question.....

I need some advice on how to install plugins into GIMP, specifically, the NIK Collection.

Have been poking around in the directory tree under GIMP in C-windows program files, and have not yet been successful in my attempts to install the plugins.

Thanks in advance for any help..!!

I would like to transform a picture like this:

in something like this:

I tried a lot of Gimp filters, also search tutorials but I never reach the "porcelain" quality of the aimed photos...

Thank you!

  sketching with a Wacom Tablet
Posted by: Espermaschine - 01-19-2018, 11:54 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Bougth a Wacom Intuos Small Tablet CTL-480 over a year ago.
Thats when i thought the best way to make posterized Obey-esque art is by drawing simplified shapes manually on top of a processed image.

Found it a very awkward tool and ditched it in frustration.

Tried again yesterday. I dont know, something is not right.....
Installed the latest driver and it has gotten better, but its still not like drawing on paper.

I dont think i have pressure tapering and im very unsure about the right brush dynamic.

Watched a lot of videos and it seems 'Basic Dynamic' is supposed to be the default for drawing in Gimp.
It does give me faded strokes and differing opacity, but it does not really seem ideal for drawing.

Of course i can produce a stroke that is tapered at both ends with the right brush dynamic, but whats the point for drawing ?
Especially when i have to adjust the Fade manually to get the right tapering for any given line ???

I also applied the Smooth Stroke option, which helps a bit but i havent figured out a good setting yet.

Also tried with Inkscape and i just dont find it very useful with the smoothing option of the Pen Tool.

As a last trial i installed Krita, which is very laggy on my computer.
According to the FAQ, the 4GB RAM i have is not optimal...

Any advice ?
