[Gimp-user] Incremental Batch Rotation
Hello, is there a way to take an image, and make an animation of it rotating 360 degrees? I've never looked into batch processing with GIMP, but I would be willing to. This is for a video game sprite. Thanks, Ben Garcia AnimStack can do it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=49FGgONSduM (though in the latest version you can do something like [;rotate:-15*i] [.fg] instead of [angle=inc:-15] [.fg] [-;rotate:angle] like in the video) -- Grue (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
[Gimp-user] Layer Opacity Access Point(s) Madness
--REVISED INITIAL POST-- {As of Sunday, September 1, 2013}
GIMP: Opacity Access Obscurity Requires Features Access Clarification and/or GUI
Design Change Immediately-
I. Would-be Satisfied User Question(s)
II. System Feature Access Change(s) Request(s) | Recommendation(s), for GIMP
SMEs and Online Enthusiasts' Forum: -
Maddening | Urgent Help Request: -
I. Apparent is that there exists no navigational work-around for a lost, deleted
or simply a not included/provided Layer Opacity access option/feature ... at
least in my version of GIMP v. 2.8.6. -
I cannot locate among the application's Primary Tabs (my initial capital letter
convention, for that level feature | option; sub-tabs appear/designated with a
lower-case t) any tab/sub-tab/path/palette link/hot
button/menu/sub-menu/relevant-other-tab/data entry field prompt |
window/mini-portal, for access to the much desired Layer Opacity tool/option.
-
Unknown are its [Layer Opacity access option/feature's] access
point(s).-
Can (is it possible to phrase the scenario any more explicitly) that be stated
any more didactically? LOL.-
Simply put, Photoshop-PS+ (whichever Creative Suite iteration of PS ), for
many of its options | features | tools | instruments [et cetera] readily
details/depicts (if not immediately, then elsewhere) ie, via several
(redundant, so to speak) access points, by often cross-referenced app overlaps
(eg, navigational paths | aka click sequences, within a Tab or its sub-tab
.): that facilitates access among each [option(S) | feature(s) | tool(s) |
instrument(s) etc.], accessible from and by a variety of methods eg, keystroke
combos (aka shortcuts), various any tab/sub-tab/path/palette link/hot
button/menu/sub-menu/relevant-other-tab/data entry field prompt |
window/mini-portal data entry/data input fields | points, click sequence(s)
and/or selectable other selectable options. -
{ASIDE 1 of 2: Albeit, often one such Layer Opacity tool is readily referenced
in several of the extant online tutorials (reviewed were several youtube videos,
too) wherein it was repeated referenced and shown as a given palette or
tabbed item; and it is, too, often depicted, replete with supporting
screenshots, no less: so the feature must exist perhaps commanded by hidden
access privilege(s) somehow [snicker], somewhere within GIMP ... for some users,
at least ;-)}:-
GIMP's GUI Other Layer Opacity Access Priorities | Change(s)
Recommendation(s):
What is aired above (and further detailed below) may prove to be under one and
the same rubric; namely, GUI Change. -
Primary Layer Tab's, anticipated, Layer Opacity tool's option | feature
tab/sub-tab/path/palette link/hot button/menu/sub-menu/relevant-other-tab/data
entry field prompt | window/mini-portal, click sequence or the like access
point(s) is ... not found! ]-
Wracked one's brain . to no avail. -
For starters, no, I simply do not intend to re-install GIMP, as the
assertion that my app might be corrupted ... does not hold true (late August
2013, downloaded and installed one two occasions. Not so fast; it appears that
the problem(s) cited are systemic to GIMP, and that their resolution would
require (a) further elucidation ie, how to by GIMP (ie, how to access the
Layer Opacity tool aka glider); and, (b) require GIMP to apply apt resource
resolution measures, ASAP [improve GIMP's GUI, as recommended, herein].
-
Its Layer Opacity tool/option's form-factor should be manifest typically as an
Opacity Glider aka a selectable |adjustable progress bar: a percentage (%)
transparency scroll bar and/or an expectable like prompt data-entry field
conceivably, which would execute a layer's desired fade user-specification
(opacity). Amiss is any Layer Opacity adjustment tool [if such does in fact
already exist) access point(s), as the videos mentioned demonstrate its
existence], whatsoever. -
Despite CIRCULAR narratives communicated on this, GIMP's official site, and
among the posts of others created by or in service to | contributed to by GIMP
enthusiasts, there exists no CLEAR nor MEANINGFUL ADDRESS (redress) as to how
one MAKES APPARENT aka would ACCESS ie, access point(s) for Layer Opacity:
neither by mouse clicking nor by eg, shortcut keys entry
navigation/specification, for such a Layer Opacity tool access point(s).
-
II. Again, when no such tab/sub-tab/path/palette link/hot
button/menu/sub-menu/relevant-other-tab/data entry field prompt |
window/mini-portal can be readily found to an extant -- and ideally in more than
one --
[Gimp-user] Embedded thumbnails?
I was just choosing a JPG to open in the gimp Open Image dialog and when I clicked on the image to open, I think the preview thumbnail was of the same image in an uncropped and unprocessed form. Does gimp use some type of embedded thumbnail as a preview image? - Grant ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
Re: [Gimp-user] gimp-user-list Digest, Vol 24, Issue 1
Thanks! It will probably do what I want it to do. The GIMP Animation Package sounds like it is what you're looking for. I have never used it myself (yet), but there's a [tutorial] which looks promising. It's in German, but contains all necessary steps as easy- to-follow screenshots.

Still not human-readable. We already know you are frustrated, no need
to repeat that. Try explaining in short sentences what you are trying
to achieve and what you see instead. Like this:
1. I need to do [description of action]
2. I do [first step]
3. I do [second step]
4. I do [X=1 step]
5. Instead I see [pronlem description]

Re: [Gimp-user] Layer Opacity Access Point(s) Madness
That was pretty difficult to get a handle on. Is this what you're looking for: Windows/Dockable Dialogs/Layers (ctlL) 2nd thing down is an Opacity slider. Are you looking for a way to select a specific layer and operate on it using the Opacity slider via the keyboard? Or just find the slider in the first place?

[Gimp-user] dump defaults
Assuming one starts gimp with no user-specific gimprc, is there a way to dump out all the default values? I'm asking because the default gimprc has everything commented out, and there's no GIMP2_DIRECTORY or gimp_dir defined in my environment.

ok that yields
(temp-path ${gimp_dir}/tmp)

I don't see anything there that indicates it is gimp_dir,
and none of the values are the ones set by default, which in my case
is ~/.gimp-2.8. All of the directory options are for source info
(such as libdir, prefix, execprefix, mandir, etc., and all of the
values are in non-user-writeable directories.
My system-wide (freebsd) default gimprc, /usr/local/etc/gimp/2.2/gimprc,
has the following (commented-out) lines:
(temp-path ${gimp_dir}/tmp)
(swap-path ${gimp_dir})
If I look at Preferences/Folders, I see
Temporary folder: tmp
Swap folder: .gimp-2.8
If I open a 10,000 x 3,000 .xcf which is 128MB, with the tile cache size set to
16MB, I see a new file ~/.gimp-2.8/gimpswap.6637, and nothing in ~/tmp. I
don't know what will cause something to be written to temp space, but
apparently gimp_dir is set to ~/.gimp-2.8 by default on fbsd. It is
particularly confusing because the tmp entry, when seen in the UI, *looks*,
because of the missing prefix path components, like it would be /tmp or ~/tmp,
but in fact is not.
Thanks for the pointers.
