[Gimp-user] Re: What's Wrong with this Image?

2003-09-07 Thread [EMAIL PROTECTED]



As it works with (seemingly) all forms of *nix, I think the
problem may be an OS conversion problem, but the following is only a
guess. On my Windows 98 box, none of the graphics show up correctly in
Opera 6.05 or Netscape 7.0, but almost all show up in IE 6 (gasp, IE
seems to actually be MORE compatible for once). My guess is that it could
be that you're creating these images on a *nix box, and then someone
viewed them with Windows or a Mac, and the difference between the newline
characters (or some other such oddity between the OSes) made the images
not work.
And when viewing the jpg of the logo, all of the browsers generate a
parse error when loading the image. I've never seen a parse error on an
image, I didn't know that could happen.
But to actually help, it would be useful to know why you think that these
images don't work properly.

These suggestions were never about reinventing the wheel, and most of
these 'enhancements' were inspired by some other, professional
applications - so I think most of them are indeed productive. On the
other hand, I don't know about the newbies. But the problem is - as I
see it right now - , that the Gimp is too 'intuitive' for professionals,
and too 'productive' for newbies.
Don't get me wrong, I really like the Gimp, and especially the way it's
going, e.g. gegl. I really admire the work that is done, and I care for
this project - that's why I wanted to give something back.
My mockups and suggestions are intended as a base for discussing those
aforementioned issues.

The basic question is: For what kind of users is/ was Gimp designed?
Judging by the very advanced technical possibilities and the current
roadmap, I would think the project is aimed at professional users...

I would like this thread to become a pool for suggestions, collecting
ideas to improve the usability of the Gimp, and discuss those changes
with the developers.

So, if someone replies to this thread, explain what suggestions you like
(or dislike) and why, and add your own ideas and concerns.

Thank you.

Sorry for the delay - it's now Sunday and this post only just arrived.

Short answer:  Image/Select/Select by Color  should do it.  If you want
to make the selected (or not selected) pixels transparent, make sure you
have an alpha channel.  You can't do this on the background layer.

An alternative is the Image/Filters/Colors/Color_to_alpha plug-in.

Experiment with both of these and see what works for you.

Add layer mask, Select by colour on layer, activate mask, fill
selection with black. 

Or, select by colour, quickmask, copy the mask (in the channels
dialog), and apply that mask as a layer mask.

[Gimp-user] gimprc gamma and gamma_convert

2003-09-07 Thread Robin Rowe
Hi. I'm looking at the gimprc file and wondering how GIMP handles gamma.

# Set the gamma correction values for the display
#  1.0 corresponds to no gamma correction.  For most displays,
#  gamma correction should be set to between 2.0 and 2.6
#  Run the utility "gamma_correct" to determine appropriate values
#  for your display.
#
# One important item to keep in mind:  Many images that you might
#  get from outside sources will in all likelihood already be
#  gamma-corrected.  In these cases, the image will look washed-out
#  if the gimp has gamma-correction turned on.  If you are going
#  to work with images of this sort, turn gamma correction off
#  by removing this line, or setting the values to 1.0.
#  gamma-correction 1.0
#  gamma-correction 2.0
#
(gamma-correction 1.0)

This came from a GIMP 1.2.3 Windows gimprc.

Setting a gamma value of 2.2 or 1.0 in gimprc had no visible effect. How is
this feature enabled?

Is there a gamma setting somewhere in the preferences dialog?

Where is the gamma_correct tool mentioned in gimprc?

Thanks,

Robin

Try this, if avaliable:

Save your image in the GIMP, open it in Open Office,  by inserting it 
on an empty Open Office drawing document. (insert->graphics).
Zoom out, and scale your image up to the desired size.
On open office print dialog box, click on the options button at the 
lower left corner. There is an option to tile the image.

Good printing. I hope we can see tiled printing on the GIMP anytime 
soon. I don't know if it is ont he enhacement requests, is it?

[Gimp-user] character sets

2003-09-07 Thread Rick Pasotto
Last year I created a graphic using the Forte font that had some
accented characters in it. This year I need to make a change to the
words so I'm trying to re-create it. My problem is that this year
the accented characters do not display, in fact all letters on a line
after an accented character disappear.

I am now using version 1.2.3 (debian linux) but I don't know what
version I was using previously.

What has changed on my system? How can I get accented characters
(cut-n-pasted from a text window) to display?

Sounds like the problem dealed with in 

  http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58848

Basically the problem is that the font is generally available but
cannot be provided at the size that GIMP tries to use. This is a
problem with the old text tool that is unlikely to ever get fixed.
You can work around it by using scaleable fonts only.

Well, surely the screenshot looks nice. The question is if this is a
useable interface that is both intuitive to newbies as well as
productive for experts. The mockup brings up a couple of good points.
However none of them are really new. A lot of this is implemented in
the 1.3 series, some points are scheduled for implementation, some
were dropped.

I just want to point out that it doesn't make any sense to say yes or
no to the mockup. It just raises a couple of ideas that need to be

Does anyone know a way to reassign this in IceWM?

[Gimp-user] Fonts again.....

2003-09-07 Thread Jim Clark




I have just moved to a new RH 9 (a customized by my company distribution)
box, with a newly compiled GIMP 1.2.5. I haven't played with it much, but I
would very much like to remove about 100 of the fonts in my text tool.

My font path includes the unix:/7100, but how do I remove fonts from that
location? Everything I find on the web is about adding the font server, but
I want much less of it. How do I do that?

I have successfully added y old friend fonts from my old box.

There was a very nice tutorial mentioned a few months ago, but it is now
gone. I can't believe I'm the only one struggling with hordes of unwanted
fonts (or fonts that make GIMP crash)

You cannot do this. At least not without changing the code. We will

[Gimp-user] Screenshot plug-in status

2003-09-07 Thread Henrik Brix Andersen
Hi all,

I recently replaced a large part of the screenshot plug-in
(plug-ins/common/screenshot.c) - now it no longer depend on the external
'xwd' utility from XFree86 to work.

I have prepared the screenshot plug-in for compilation on different GDK
back ends than X11, but I have no means experience coding for these back
ends nor the means to test the plug-in on them.

It would be nice if someone on say... win32 ;)... would have a go at
writing the missing win32 part of the select_window() function. It
really should be simple. As a matter of fact that someone could look at
the win32 specific winsnap plug-in to see how it is done there.

The comments in plug-ins/common/screenshot.c explains pretty much what
the code should do.

When the win32 specific part of select_window() has been written and
committed I plan to retire the win32 specific winsnap plug-in in favor
of the new screenshot plug-in.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to write me - or follow up on
the list.

Sincerely,
./Brix

In 1.3, but it is probably the same in 1.2, you use Alt+mousedrag to
move the selection without its content. Some window managers like
Gnome2's metacity, however, bind Alt+drag to moving windows around, so
you need to press Ctrl along.

You can adjust and re-place a selection by using Alt-drag.

If you look at the image in real-world size, that is "Dot for Dot"
switched off in the View menu, all distances are reported in the

Hi there...

All you have to do is hold ALT and click and drag  the selection.

However, if you are in KDE, it´s default behavior is to captue this 
event (alt + click and drag) to drag the window.

You have to disable this behavior in the kde control center 
(kcontrol), Under LookNFeel, Window Behavior, modifier key + buttons 
-> set them all to "Nothing".

Yes. You can place guides at 0 X and 0 Y coordinates. To use guides, 
just click on the rulers at the window margin, and drag the guides to 
your image. The default behaviour for object placement is snap to 
these guides.

No, there is not. However, I think it is still feasible for 2.0.  I 
just wonder if anyone has asked for this enhancemnet on bugzilla...
