> Have a look at Sample points dialogue. > Norman This looks like it might be it :-) First, I was able to select a "sample point" per the instructions in the documentation (drag a ruler w/the ctrl key down), but the Sample Points Dialog did not come up. The documentation said it might not, and that you had to open it separately. 1) Does anyone know why adding a sample point might not open the Sample Points Dialog automatically? Second, with the sample point selected, I opened the Levels Tool. I want to use this sample point as the "gray point". In the Levels Tool, I clicked the "Pick gray point" eyedropper, and then went to click on the sample points, but the only thing that happened was the cursor changed from an eyedropper to an eyedropper+move_symbol, which means, according to the status message at the bottom of Gimp, I can move the point, but I can't seem to use it. 2) Now that I have a sample point (the gray point), how do I use it in the Levels Dialog? Thank you. -- __________________________ DJ _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
