[Gimp-user] Carving away
I have stumbled into this effect before but do not remember how. I want to place text on a picture, but create a carved look around the letters as if the picture was scraped away and the letters were revealed. A nice recessed 3-D look. Not torn away, but just bordered a little to make the letters look behind. Hope that explains itnow can someone point me to instructions?

Re: [Gimp-user] glib can't find pkg-config
Hi, $ export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/lib/pkg-config/" I tried it this way, just "/usr/local/bin" But it made no difference. Is this the exact way to set a path? Hago ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] tool-config cannot be saved
hi, i wonder how i can save my tool-seetings, for example for "move" etc. - i hit the save-button, but each time i reload the gimp, default settings are used, my settings are not restored. same for "view" - i dont like the layer-border - but i dont know how to switch it of permanently - any hints? ps: can anybody explain why new created layers with no content are sized to the document-size? it slows gimp down if i use many layers and each of them ist oversized... layer-sizes do not make sense for my understanding - why not handle layer-sizes like photoshop does? greets, falk ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Whichever way the default goes, some people are going to have to change it. I have no idea how Photoshop handles layers, but if new GIMP layers came up at some arbitrarily small size, in a lot of cases you would have to resize them anyway. As it is, if you dislike the speed hit, just shrink the layer down to a size that is more convenient for you. You may argue that you would have to do that all the itme, but then what is the "correct" default size (hint: there isn't one).

Re: [Gimp-user] glib can't find pkg-config
Take a look at the instructions that I recently posted on gimpwin-dev regarding building the gimp under Windows. Info on how to point to pkg-config is included that should work essentially the same on other platforms. s/KAM - Original Message - From: "Hago Ziegler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 11, 2002 3:42 PM Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] glib can't find pkg-config > > it should be - what's the exact error message you get? > > "checking for pkg-config... no > configure: error: ***pkg-config not found."

Re: [Gimp-user] glib can't find pkg-config
Well shoot, I was just being lazy, let me try to save you a little bit of trouble... As I recall, you need to point to the pkg-config executable by one of two methods: A. the directory containing the pkg-config executable is listed in your PATH environment variable, OR B. set an environment variable named PKG_CONFIG to the complete path including the name of the pkg-config executable. Note that PKG_CONFIG_PATH does NOT point to the pkg-config executable. PKG_CONFIG_PATH points to a list of the directories containing the pkg-config configuration info for the packages that will be configured. For example, using mingw under Windows, I set PKG_CONFIG_PATH as follows: #!/bin/sh export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=\ D:\\source\\gettext-dev-0.10.40-20020904\\lib\\pkgconfig\;\ D:\\source\\glib-dev-2.0.6-20020802\\lib\\pkgconfig\;\ D:\\source\\gtk+-dev-1.3.0-20020912\\lib\\pkgconfig echo PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH You ought to be able to adjust that to work with the appropriate path style and delimiters on your system. Hope this helps. s/KAM - Original Message - From: "Kevin Myers" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Hago Ziegler" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 12, 2002 12:39 AM Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] glib can't find pkg-config > Take a look at the instructions that I recently posted on gimpwin-dev > regarding building the gimp under Windows.
