Re: [Gimp-user] New Image from Visible Layers?

 I'm new to both GIMP and this forum. Please forgive me if this question has
 been asked - I don't see it anywhere.

 Is there a way to create a new image from visible layers?

 I'm creating a set of cards that includes arrows, shadows, text and
 background. Each of these objects are in their own layer. All of the layers
 are in a single .xcf file.

 I need to mix and match these layers down into multiple .png files.

 I could do this by:
 1. Making one variation of layers visible.
 2. Save as a .png file.
 3. Reload my .xcf file.
 4. Repeat until I have created all my cards.

 Is there a simpler way?

 Thanks!  :)

What I usually do is Ctrl+A Ctrl+Shift+C Ctrl+Shift+V.

Ctrl+A: Select entire image
Ctrl+Shift+C: Copy everything visible
Ctrl+Shift+V: Paste into a new image

Hi Sacryd!

choose new from visible (menu layer,) and drag and drop that new layer
over the tool-box  creates a new image.

Save it (eg. as png), close it and go back to your still open xcf-file.

If you prefer shortcurts you can define one for new from visible (menu
edit  shortcuts)

hope this helps,
Tina

Don't use Save as.  If you just save a copy as png it will flatten
the image and save what is visible exactly as you see it.

[Gimp-user] New Image from Visible Layers?

2010-04-04 Thread Bernhard S.
Since GIMP 2.6 there is an option New from visible after you right click on
a layer in the layers dialog!
