[Gimp-user] xinerama and wacom

2008-11-14 Thread IL'dar AKHmetgaleev
Greetings.

This problem seems to be well known but still not fixed.
http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1916305forum_id=236872
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66813

So once again.
I have true xinerama setup with three heads and with different
resolutions (1024x768+0+282, 1680x1050+1024+0, 1024x768+2704+282).

I can't use twinview because of I'm using two video cards.

I'm using 
$ xsetwacom set stylus Screen_No 0|1|2 
as keyboard shortcuts to map tablet to one of the screen. I have no
problems with X's pointer and with non GTK applications such as blender
and pencil (both with pressure sensitivity).

But in all GTK applications (gimp, inkscape and mypaint) in screen
mode cursor have offset. Seems GTK maps my tablet to whole virtual
screen (3728x1050). Moreover using tablet in screen mode periodically
makes my wacom driver hang. My cursor stops and then I can't kill X
server and can't switch to console.

I have to use window mode and keep gimp and inkscape windows
fullscreen. I still have offset. But it works anyway.

So why GTK uses this strange way to get pointer's position and doesn't
uses core pointer's coordinates as blender or QT?

my system:
gentoo amd64
linuxwacom-0.8.0_p3-r1
xorg-server-1.3.0.0-r6
gtk+-2.12.11
gimp-2.4.7
inkscape-0.46-r5
xorg.conf in attach

Thank you.

Re: [Gimp-user] How to specify printer color profile

What flavor/version of Linux are you using?

 Hi all,

 reading at the Gimp documentation, I found how to apply soft proof, so
 that I can preview the printed image.

 Now, supposing I have a valid printer profile, how do I specify to use a
 specific profile? when printing? Both the gnome print interface, and the
 gimp-print interface don't allow me to specify a printer profile (and
 the rendering intent).

 I am using Gimp 2.6.2.

 Thanks

 Marco

[Gimp-user] sky question

2008-11-14 Thread Joel Glanfield
Hello,

First time poster here.

Just curious about how to change sky-colors like you see in a lot of 
professional photographs. For example, on this site:

http://www.novascotiaphotos.com/

...the banner at the top has purple sky, and there are several photos in 
the gallery with different sky-colors. What's the best way to go about 
doing this using the GIMP? I've been doing some googling, but I'm 
probably using incorrect search terms since I haven't really found 
anything helpful (yet).

Any replies are appreciated!

Regards,
Joel

Hi Joel, just shoot your photos around sunrise/sunset (at the right day).

Ken Rockwell explains:
Most people never see colors like this because they live indoors,
work in an office, drive to and from work, and live in a house.
These colors happen outdoors in nature. The peak color,
which are the shots I show, only exists for 60 seconds at most,
if it happens at all, any given day
http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/color.htm

For changing colors using gimp, you can play with the various commands
in the color section, e.g. Hue-Saturation

greetings,
peter

 Hello,
 
 First time poster here.
 
 Just curious about how to change sky-colors like you see in a lot of 
 professional photographs. For example, on this site:

as already someone replied, at sunset and sunrise the sky colors are
wonderful. You might achieve nice results also by using a polarizer (if
you can attach it to your camera): it really makes the difference

If you want to artificially change the colors, I think the best way to
do it, is to do it in a selective manner:

1) duplicate the layer of the original photo
2) change the color of the duplicate layer by using the color balance
tool to reach the sky tonality you want (don't pay attention to want
happens to the rest of the photo)
3) apply a layer mask to the modified layer (hiding all the modified
layer)
4) select a brush with proper dimensions and draw with it over the layer
mask: this will reveal the modified layer. If you draw only over the sky
region, you will obtain the sky with your colors, while keeping the rest
of the image with original colors. You can play with different brushes
and different brush settings (I found the opacity setting very useful)
and see how to get the best results

Hope this helps

Marco

[Gimp-user] Moving text while typing it.

2008-11-14 Thread Dotan Cohen
In KDE's KolourPaint one can open the Text tool, add text, and move
the text insert location while the text is in edit mode. How does one
do this in Gimp?
