[Gimp-user] drop shadow
When I use the drop-shadow filter, I see the checkerboard around the image -- not a drop shadow. I've tried changing the background, tried duplicating the layer and working on that. I've also looked through some tutorials which are well-written and clear and it looks so easy -- can someone tell me what I'm missing?

[Gimp-user] capture screen shot from google books
I would like to capture a screen shot from google books, but the dragging neccesary to define a region to capture is already used by the iceweasel (browser) window to mean move in image. How can I set up alternative bindings to drag so the screenshot gimp dialog will capture the image i want. I realize that i can capture the whole window screenshot and cut it down later. that is a true but not as nice... thanks mitchell laks ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Re: [Gimp-user] drop shadow
Hi Helen, Helen wrote: When I use the drop-shadow filter, I see the checkerboard around the image -- not a drop shadow. Are you trying to make a drop shadow for an object against a transparent background? At least it sounds like this to me. (Otherwise, you don't get the checkerboard pattern.) I've experienced that in this case the drop shadow isn't easy to notice. I usually create a temporary white layer to see the effect, and then delete this layer again. (You will have to move this white layer to the bottom first). I'm hoping that my description is of some help.
