[Gimp-user] Redo paints after creating a new layer
Hi, When on vacation I often do this: - import an image of a map (download, digital photo) - enhance it until satisfactory - create a new layer - place a series of dots denoting a route I often discover after placing a whole lot of dots that I forgot to create the new layer first. Using undo, I go back to the pristine state. I can then redo the history to get the dots back. However, I cannot redo the paints anymore after creating a layer. Is there a way to accomplish this? -- Johan ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Maybe you should change the workflow from painting the dots yourself to creating a path which can then be stroked? HTH, Michael -- Der GMX SmartSurfer hilft bis zu 70% Ihrer Onlinekosten zu sparen!

Yes, I use this for other (similar) purposes. Still, I'd like to know if it is possible to replay paint history after a layer create. -- Johan ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] value invert is for luminance only, or can be also other thing ?
In Colors menu there are two invert positions, one is Invert and other in Value invert. For the first invert, the floating help says Invert the colors. For the second invert, the floatig help says Invert the brightness of each pixel. My first question is why are the menu names not self-explained. Why is the first only Invert and is not Color invert ? My second question is what other value things can be inverted other than the luminance pixels. Why is the second Value invert and not Luminance invert ? Whom else value ?

You can try this: starting from the drawed image: redo all up to have all dots drawed. select all. copy paste as new image undo up to pristine state before drawing dots but after the enhancements. select all (you will not be able anymore to redo) copy in the new image: duplicate the layer (as this you have a backup of the dots) hide the duplicate add a new layer import the pristine state into it - paste duplicate it and hide the duplicate (you will need later) raise the visible drawed layer to top. set mode in the drawed layer to divide if the dots are not white or black. else to grain extract. flat visible layers. (drawed and pristine) color to alpha (white if there was divide or grey if grain extract) if grain extract select by color transparent, invert selection and fill the dots with original color set the duplicate of pristine layer visible and down it.

[Gimp-user] set the visibility of a group of layers
Hi all! Many times I have to set the visibility of a group of layers, for example to test the results from a combination of them against another combination of layers. Is there some plugin that allows to set some groups of layers and then change their visibility at once? Thanks Pere. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

My first question is why are the menu names not self-explained. Why is the first only Invert and is not Color invert ? Because Invert implements the classic definition of an Invert operation on RGB images. It's the term that people are looking for. My second question is what other value things can be inverted other than the luminance pixels. Why is the second Value invert and not Luminance invert ? Whom else value ? Value is a well-defined concept in image processing. The value of a pixel is defined as the maximum value of its RGB channels. It one way to define a measure for the intensity of a pixel. The Value Invert operation performs the color inversion in the HSV space (where V is Value), leaving Hue and Saturation untouched.

Re: [Gimp-user] Saving individual layers
On the other hand, its sort of useful, because you can define what file type you want the layer to be, png, jpg, gif, etc, simply by adding it to the layer name. Technically, one is supposed to always name layers. On Tue, Jun 10, 2008 at 5:31 PM, scott s.
