  What is mask_bounds if the selection contains inner holes?

What is mask_bounds if the selection contains inner holes?

Such as in:

Or is there some other way to get the bounds?

  API Reference for Script-Fu or Python-Fu?
Posted by: mavavilj - 08-22-2017, 06:20 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

So I've done some searching, but am unsure, whether there exists any API Reference for Script-Fu or Python-Fu.

If not, then would it perhaps be a good community project to undertake? Using something like Doxygen it shouldn't be too difficult.

Hi,
Have done a quick search through the Forum, plus have checked my User Manual but cannot find anywhere that tells me if I can compress a picture.
I thought I saw it yesterday while editing a pic but now for the life of me I cannot seem to find what it was I THOUGHT I saw!
Any help please!!   Big Grin

  Thumbnail Index
Posted by: JiggsMom - 08-21-2017, 06:37 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Is there a way to print a thumbnail index of images in a folder with GIMP? I used to be able to do that with Paint Shop Pro 8.  Thanks!

  Gimp 2.9.5 straight line angle
Posted by: rich2005 - 08-21-2017, 03:45 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - No Replies

Just to show that the developers do sometimes incorporate users 'wishes'

When drawing straight lines click - hold.shift - click someone asked if the angle of the line could be shown as well as the length.

and there it is...

  increasing size of icons, tool panels, etc.
Posted by: freedda - 08-21-2017, 07:36 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I am very new to GIMP, I'm running it on my Acer Aspire Alpha 12 two-in-one notebook. I opened it for the first time just now, and the various menus (Tools, tool options, layers / brushes, etc.) are very, very tiny, so much so that I can't see them well, and certainly can't select them very easily or accurately.

Does anyone know how I increase the size of the text and icons in these windows/menus? Is it something I can do within GIMP or do I need to go it within Win 10, or?

Thanks, david

  Smudge filter
Posted by: grit - 08-20-2017, 12:17 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

Similar to smudge too, I would like to smudge whole image. There isn't that named filter in GMIC.
How to create this effect using existing filters in GIMP and GMIC ?

I calculated that I need for 300dpi  1028x673 pixels.  

Next I created a sample card but it looks ugly because the corners are pixelated. How to so it better? Is the .SVG format needed?

  Recolor tool
Posted by: truememestar - 08-18-2017, 10:36 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

How do you recolor a specific color without messing up another color?
Every time I try to recolor something, it colors in the border too. This annoys me quite a lot and I would like to know if such a tool exists in the Plugins category or in vanilla GIMP.
(P.S: This is a feature paint.net has, I'm on a macOS, and therefore I cannot use paint.net to complete said objective.)

  G'mic latest installer (August 2017)
Posted by: rich2005 - 08-18-2017, 05:30 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (4)

The installer for the Windows version of the gmic_gimp plugin has changed a little. see: http://gmic.eu/download.shtml for the installer and https://youtu.be/4wXgfTIeOOs for the demo.

Because it contains some files that might conflict with existing plugins, the gmic_gimp plugin installer now creates a plug-ins sub-folder for all the files.

My advice. 
If you have a previous gmic_gimp using the provided installer, use the uninstaller via Windows. 
Typically look at Control Panel -> Programs -> Uninstall a Program

With the new installer, run it, stick to the defaults and a new folder is created under plug-ins in your Gimp profile.

At the moment, this is not automatically recognised by Gimp
Start Gimp, go to Edit -> Preferences -> Folders -> Plug-ins and add that folder to the list.

Restart Gimp, open an image and check, bottom of the filters menu, there is a GMIC-QT entry. 
It does check for updated filters, so can take a little time to start. 
Be patient. If you are not connected to the internet, connect up and update the filters. This is a small download, nothing to worry about.
