[Gimp-user] How to change some default behaviours?
I'm starting to get serious about photography. I've shot a batch of photos that need manual processing. There are a couple of steps where I should be able to save one or two keystrokes every time. This may sound minor, but when I have to do it time after time after time, it gets annoying. This is not intended to be a rant, but rather a request for info about changing defaults to speed things up for me. I'm running Gimp 2.6.11 on Gentoo linux (64-bit). I've looked at Edit == Preferences, but can't seem to find what I'm looking for. 1) I need to crop photos, but the manual crop tool is not the best fit. I prefer to use Image == Canvas Size. My problem is that the Width+Height aspect ratio defaults to staying constant. I.e. if I crop the X size, the Y size changes proportionally. I do NOT want that. I have to manually click on the link to break the linkage. Sometimes I forget, which can get really annoying, when cropping in one dimension crops the other as well. How can I change the default to not link the X+Y sizes? 2) Saving stuff to PNG *) After having done any cropping, I obviously want to save my work. Saving to PNG pops up a dialog about Your image should be exported before it can be saved... blah, blah, blah. Yes folks, I know that. Is there any way to get the PNG save routine to just do it, rather than popping up a dialogue? *) If I'm saving to a new PNG file, I get *YET ANOTHER DIALOGUE* with settings for compression/interlacing/etc/etc. I never change the default settings, so this is another extra annoyance to me. How can I get the save as command to just do it? I know the above may sound minor, but it does get annoying after the umpteenth time. -- Walter Dnes waltd...@waltdnes.org ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] How to remove background of shadowed and/or low-resolution and/or more complex images
Hello everyone and especially to the gimp-user mailing list regulars. I am trying to create a network infrastructure diagram for where I work with Dia. (In fact it will actually help me much more than anyone else, but that's not the subject.) For this I am putting into the diagram, images of: servers, switches, racks and so on. What I wish for those images is to have transparent background. So far, I've been able to find decent resolution images which it's because I've started with the latest hardware. Here's an example, let's say for our Dell PowerEdge 6850 servers if found this: http://www.shopricom.com/items/www.shopricom.com/photos/Image78N743uMRZ_full.jpg which by fuzzy selecting the white background, with a threshold of 15.0 and some selection subtractions I've been able to turn to: http://i.imgur.com/xyCYn.png which is nice for what I wish to use it for. Now, I've been able to handle some easy likewise situations but now I've reached the vintage hardware and got bad results. Let me show an example image: http://www.superwarehouse.com/images/products/HP_Proliant_ml370.jpg This is more difficult to make it look as I wish since it's resolution it's not decent and it also has a shadow effect which hardens a precise initial selection which can then be worked out to a better result. After some efforts I either end up with a pixelized image or with a severely chopped image. So, my question is how could I achieve the desired result for this and such images? How would do you work out similar or even more advanced cases?

Re: [Gimp-user] How to remove background of shadowed and/or low-resolution and/or more complex images
Hi! In this situations what I do is: - select by either free tool or the scissors (depending on the case is easier with one or the other) - create a layer mask from the selection - adjust the little things than were not perfect after that and optionally to simulate the antialias and avoid the hard edges: - apply a gaussian blur to the mask (probably very little, 2-3px or so) - to avoid the white aura around the object use the levels tool with that layer moving the left handler to the right until you are happy with the result It's easier than it sound. hope this helps and good luck! - mIKEL El 24/05/11 21:58, Sophoklis Goumas escribió: So, my question is how could I achieve the desired result for this and such images?

Have in mind that color to alpha removes the selected color from the whole image (except if you already have a selection). What I do usually is restriuct color to alpha to a thin border around the object edges; 1) magic wand to select background, if the background is not uniform (JPEG artifacts, for instance) and there are unselected spots, shift-click them to include them in the selection 2) save that selection 3) shrink the selection 3 pixels 4) erase, this takes care of most of the backgound 5) restore saved selection 6) extend it two pixels so that is extends slightly inside the object. 7) apply color-to-alpha Done. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] How to remove background of shadowed and/or low-resolution and/or more complex images
When painting on a layer mask, if you use a dynamic brush created in the brush editor, you can set up in your preferences to allow you to resize and change the brush hardness on the fly while you are painting. I have mine set up so that pressing shift while scrolling the mousewheel increases/decreases the brush size, and ctrl with mousewheel increases/decreases hardness. This way you can paint hard edges on parts of the mask that need hard edges, and soft edges where you need those. You can render against the intended background and see what it will look like as you go. Further, for straight edges, it is a simple matter to use the shift key to let you draw nice straight lines when you are painting on the mask. There is a tutorial on Gimptalk about doing renders with layer masks...tho some of the images got removed when GT shut down imageox, their image server. --- On Tue, 5/24/11, peter kostov g...@light-bg.com wrote: From: peter kostov g...@light-bg.com Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] How to remove background of shadowed and/or low-resolution and/or more complex images To: gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU Date: Tuesday, May 24, 2011, 4:23 PM On 05/24/2011 11:06 PM, Stefan Maerz wrote: So, my question is how could I achieve the desired result for this and such images?

jamessk wrote: I am trying create a double button image like this www.jkwptest.net/b-login.gif Do you know how I create this in Gimp? It is possible? Is it possible? Yes. There is nothing special about that image. It is just two individual button images placed side by side on a common background. I would start with creating a file to be used as a template for a button (where you can change the label), and use that to create an image for each button separately. The final step is to create a new image using the two other buttons previously created. The template file will have several layers. Start with a transparent layer and fill it with the shape of the button you want and fill it with a gradient. You can use another layer for the outline and highlight around the button or put that on the first layer. Add a text layer on top that will be for the button label. Save this template (ie. as button-template.xcf). Set the text for the button as needed then Save As (or export) as a file for the first button image. Alter the text layer and enter the text needed for the second button. Save this new image. Now you can create a new file that is a bit more than twice the width of each individual button and create new layers using the previously saved pair of button images. Change background as desired. Save as .xcf (just in case), then Save As (or Export) your final image.

[Gimp-user] How can you make files open in one instance of gimp?

I have a python-fu script that I need to run after selecting four corners of what will be new photos. It will run itself on all images open in gimp which reduces my keystrokes or mouse clicks.

I would also like to know how to make a good CD image from a square book cover: This isn't a great example because it doesn't show image transfer to CD without distortion: http://www.divshare.com/download/14340705-00d but you get the general idea.

I need to apply a stepping curve (piecewise flat) and I am out of luck because there is no such option. Please help. There's a function in the PDB called gimp-curves-explicit: Modifies the intensity mapping for one channel in the specified drawable. The drawable must be either grayscale or RGB, and the channel can be either an intensity component, or the value. The 'curve' parameter is an array of bytes which explicitly defines how each pixel value in the drawable will be modified. Use the 'gimp-curves-spline' function to modify intensity levels with Catmull Rom splines. So I guess it would theoretically be possible to write a script or plug-in for this.

Re: [Gimp-user] How to clean the photo of the paper with drawing?
Duplicate the layer and remove all the dark lines/text with the Dilate filter, repeat until they are all gone. Gaussian Blur this duplicated layer with a large radius. Effectively you want to subtract this duplicated layer from the original, do this by setting the layer Mode to Grain Extract, then Flatten. Thank you, Bruno. I tried this and it works quite well. I also found another way meanwhile: Decompose the image by Wavelet function (part of my gimp 2.6 or as a plugin http://registry.gimp.org/node/11742 ) and clear the first layer - the one with details of larger scale - with the neutral color (128,128,128). Or fill that layer with white and set the brightness and contrast of the image after it is flattened again. I'm surprised there is no tutorial about this - probably a good chance to write new one - when I get really good results.

Hi Currently, what type of data should be used to enter a parasite as a parameter within those Script-fu procedures that handle such an object? By chance, can you give me any examples?

[Gimp-user] how do I find the pathname of a selected font?
Hi. I've got lots of fonts in quiet a few directories. I'm using a particular font in an image I'm editing. I want to discover the pathname of this font.

I had a similar problem - I had a directory containing tons of fonts that were all very badly named. I wrote this snippet to rename the files based on the actual font name (family_style.ttf) so I could find them and install as needed: http://pastebin.com/GB6PKBim BE WARNED: this changes the file names *in place* - there is absolutely no safety net. You might consider copying your font dir to a temporary location and then running the script there instead. For me it worked well - that whole directory is named correctly now, but I make no guarantees (may kick puppies, eat kittens, etc. ;) Also it only will do TTF files, and probably only works on linux. You need python-imaging and python-magic as well. Another possibility would be to modify this script to output the filename and the font name on the same line - that way you could pipe that through grep and see which file matches which font.

Effectively you want to subtract this duplicated layer from the original, do this by setting the layer Mode to Grain Extract, then Flatten. The result will have an even grey background, adjust the Levels to make it white again. This works very well, I use it for cleaning up photos of sketches, whiteboards etc...

So I want to get white background of 100% of the image (no shadows) and still have all details of drawing kept. Even if they are sometimes lighter than shadows in different part of the image. For example a dark shadow in the cormer and light pencil line in the middle. I tried to play with brightness contrast. This is not good enough as many details are lost. Typically the pencil drawing. Levels are unusable for the same reason. I tried to look for edge-detection filters but they all do something else than I need: they left a thin line around the edge, not the original line itself. Probably a FFT (Fast Fourier Transformation) filter would help but I did not find any. Any ideas, please?

In other words, we will start for real to introduce support for high bit depths in GIMP. There is no schedule of this work, so a date cannot be given. It is reasonable though to expect this work to go on for say 2-4 years.
