[Gimp-user] Gimp help browser on high rez monitor

For whatever reason it doesn't work with the GIMP help browser. But now that I have the GIMP help as a PDF I'm all set. Great software. I just need to learn its secrets.

[Gimp-user] ***UNCHECKED*** Gimp help browser on high rez monitor
My monitor is 3840 x 2160 on a Mac. The help browser offers great help, but it's difficult to read as the font is so small on my monitor. I can't find a way to increase the font size other than changing the screen resolution. Is there a way to do that within Gimp?

[Gimp-user] change background in photo to grey scale
I'm brand new to GIMP. I photographed a bronze sculpture on an off-white paper background in natural light. The shadow areas of the background range from white to a peach color. I'd like to change the background to greyscale and then adjust it separately from the sculpture. I've made a quick mask but now can't figure out how to make the background a separate layer from the sculpture, so that I can color correct the two layers independently. The sculptor wants to keep the shadows in the background. -- PeterJWhite (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 List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
