[Gimp-user] Fixing Deleted Left Behind Lines
Dear Gimp, I absolutely love the program I am just trying to figure something out. When I start a new project and I start editing the photo (i.e. drawing on it with the paintbrush) I encounter a problem when I try to select certain colors and delete. So lets say I have three colors in my image. I do a little drawing and editing on my image and then I want each separate color to be a separate layer. So I select two of the colors and delete them. Any things that isn't that third color or where the two colors I deleted used to be now has these editing lines is what I want to call them. You can see faint lines where I had made slight changes to the image with lets say the paintbrush. HOW DO I GET RID OF THOSE LINES? Some help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Then you may be seeing the same or a similar bug on your platform. You didn't really specify how long that delay is, though. I don't really see it as buggy. It doesn't matter whether you see something as a bug for it to be one. If there is something missing it will only be known by rescanning the folders time-and-again. If it is missing, then it will be added (remember my comment about the caching based on the file modification time?). If a plug-in was there previously and has been changed, its query() procedure will be run again. See http://www.gimp.org/docs/plug-in/sect-essentials.html for a more detailed description of a plug-in's key procedures. So there's no need for GIMP to re-query plug-ins all the time. As I wrote before, an GIMP launch with unchanged plug-ins should rush through that stage. -- HTH, Michael ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

Then you may be seeing the same or a similar bug on your platform. You didn't really specify how long that delay is, though. Before (2.8.4) it was close to 15 seconds. I've not really counted though as I just go to another works-space and prepare something else or check FB or something. I don't really see it as buggy. It doesn't matter whether you see something as a bug for it to be one. I know, just saying I didn't have a problem with it.

Because I used to that delay when I launched it after upgrading to 2.8.6 (admittedly only two launches since the update, but uncountable ones before) I would just launch and go do something else for a few moments while GIMP organized. After my last post to the list I had need to launch it again (to export some tif to jpg for use on Facebook) and paid attention and it just flew through like normal. -- Yours in Christ, Joseph A Nagy Jr Whoever loves instruction loves knowledge, But he who hates correction is stupid. -- Proverbs 12:1 Emails are not formal business letters, whatever businesses may want.

Forgot to reply all. Sorry. :( From: gau_ve...@hotmail.com To: strata_ran...@hotmail.com Subject: RE: [Gimp-user] Fixing Deleted Left Behind Lines Date: Thu, 27 Jun 2013 12:42:23 -0700 If you are drawing with the paintbrush tool the edges are drawn soft or fuzzyand the color selection tools will fail to select portions of the softened edges as blending to soften the edges brings the color closer to the colors of the neighborhood versus the color you are trying to select. You can try increasing the threshold setting of the fuzzy select and color select tools, or paint your lines with the pencil tool rather than the paintbrush which guarantees a hard, solid, non-blended edge that the color select tool can select without loss. The select tools also have their own antialiasing feautre which should be turned off if exact selections are needed.
