[Gimp-user] Make Gimp like corel photo

2009-09-12 Thread Charles C.
Hi I've been using Corel Photo for some time, but I'm trying to get used to Gimp. I can't stand the interface, but I don't like photoshop UI either. 1) In corel photo, layers are like objects, I can easilly make rectangle and new layer will have size of this rectangle. I can make stroke with brush

[Gimp-user] HOWTO: stroke a path with the current tool?

2009-09-12 Thread Ilya Zakharevich
I want to stroke the path with the current tool, with all the parameters as selected in the tool options. I do not think I can do it with the PATHs right-mouse-click menu, can I? (What I see are only choices of "Paint" tools. What I want is "Select tools", like color select and/or magic wand.)

[Gimp-user] Scaling and resolution

2009-09-12 Thread Michael J. M.
Hello all, I experimented with the resolution settings in the gimp --> scale image menu. The resolution does not seem to have any effect on the rendering of the image on a computer screen. It has no effect on file size either. I checked this by scaling and saving the same image in 3 different
