[Gimp-user] Pan tool rebind

2017-11-13 Thread Emily Herring

I found the pan tool by accident today, and would love to rebind it to a 
different key. It's currently spacebar, and it would be easier if it were 
somewhere I could choose. I couldn't find it in the key configuring list. Can 
someone tell me how I can switch it from the spacebar to something else?

[Gimp-user] Multiple Images to Single File - Text

I am assuming that the gif format is only to 'bundle' all the images into a
single file, rather than an animation which will 'play' in a web-browser. If it
is an animation you are stuck with gif.

A file with multiple layers, that can be viewed easily. Jpeg is a single layer
format. Practically that leaves PDF format. While Gimp will export a pdf, it
flattens multiple layers giving a single page. There is a script to produce
multiple page PDF's but there are caveats. Have all the individual pages open as
separate images.

The script once installed is in File -> Create -> Export Multi Page PDF.

Give it a try, if it is a file size issue, than might not be any use.

An alternative is a command line application ImageMagick which produces (only)
marginally smaller PDF file size.

[Gimp-user] Export inconsistencies

2017-11-13 Thread Carusoswi
Follow the attached link to view samples of photos that I shot on my Sony A700,
opened in Gimp 2.9.7 via darktable, then saved via gimp first to xcf, then to
tiff format.

When editing these photos, my laptop display showed them as normal photo files. 
However, when I Exorted them as .tiff, the results are inconsistent.  The first
photo returned an image that seems to be a dim, monochromatic version of what I
tried to import.  The second image appears normal.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance for any tips.

Using Gimp 2.9.7 so some version of linux?

I think your problem is in the color management & the color profile for the
image.

As an example the screenshot where the right side is using a ColorMatch icc
profile.

All are in 32 bit linear floating point precision which might be part of the
problem. Is 16 bit not sufficient?

My advice go to https://discuss.pixls.us/ and state the issue there. Full of
people who only use Gimp 2.9.x with Darktable/Rawthereapee

Thanks. Yes GIF is just because you can get all the images into a single file.
I'll look at the PDF options but yes the file size does get to be an issue.
Maybe I need to look at image to text conversion if such a thing exists.

[Gimp-user] Auto Crop

2017-11-13 Thread jorglueke
Is the automatic crop option supposed to work when you have an object in front
of a fairly standard background? I don't think I've seen it work. The
intelligent scissors tend to get most of an objects but with lighting being
variable it's never as easy as a manual crop.

Thanks for the reply.  Like most of us, I have lived with 8 bit for a long time.
This photo is from a collection of work-related images, nothing precious.  When
I updated my Ubuntu to 17.10, I re-installed Gimp, this time version 2.9.7.  It
came with Darktable as a plug-in to open RAW photos.  I find 2.9.7 a delight,
and have successfully processed some important (to me) photos using that
application.  Generally, I have only used Darktable as a plug-in, opening the
RAW file and exporting immediately to GIMP.  I never paid attention to what bit
rate was being used.

The only difference in my workflow with regard to the referenced photo was that
I used it (and others in that set) to acquaint myself more thoroughly with
Darktable.  Most of the processing was performed using Darktable, Gimp serving
only as a route by which I could export the Darktable file and convert to TIFF.

I will follow your advice and post at pixls for more advice.

Thanks, again.

Caruso

That is Optical Character Recognition (OCR) and is a whole different topic.
There are free OCR applications around, do a search. Sometimes come bundled with
scanner software. If you can get it to embed images in the correct place and
observe formatting then you will get small files.

When it comes to Gimp and PDF all you can do is compare file size. 

A quick test. For a 3 page (A4) test, black text on white background, the pdf
came out slightly smaller than the 3 layer gif.

Several different ways to extract a foreground other than the scissors tool. As
you say if the background is complex then the colour or fuzzy select tools might
only do a partial selection. But that might be enough combined with the quick
mask to paint in 'missing bits'. You should also consider using a layer mask to
the same effect.

Then the paths tool, often overlooked, but for smooth edges gives a good
selection. A bit labour intensive.

The most automatic is possibly the foreground select tool.

https://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tool-foreground-select.html

Made my rough selection around the area and painted in the area.
https://i.imgur.com/CxactcJ.jpg

Gives a selection like: https://i.imgur.com/GVImhkI.jpg

But that is not the same as an Auto-Crop: https://i.imgur.com/SXk44fG.jpg

There are plugins to assist, in particular I find the g'mic plugin www.gmic.eu
with interactive foreground select useful.

[Gimp-user] Foreground Selection Problems

2017-11-13 Thread Helmut Jarausch
Hi,
I have difficulties to select the foreground of an image.
First, I've tried Gimp's foreground selection tool.
Unless I miss something this is extremely slow on my brand new AMD Threadrippper
CPU with lots of memory.

Then I've tried GMIC's foreground selection tool. This works fine.
I've opted for the output of 2 layers - a mask and the original image.
How can I convert the black'n white layer to a selection for the image (second
layer)
Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut

No - it relies on the "background" being a solid colour all of exactly
the same pixel value. It's best for automatically-generated images.
