>GIMP layers are like objects also, it seems to me. > -- Select rectangle; C-c; C-v; Bucket fill->foreground-> whole selection Thank you, but it will work only for selections(so it wont work with brush strokes I think) rectangle was just an example.
>So if you do 200 brush strokes you have 200 layers? Yes, I _can_ have 200 layers(but I dont have to). I just can make new layer, then brush stroke and layer borders will be resized to brush stroke. I can do a few more strokes in same layer and layer border will cover only strokes borders. In gimp, as far as I know, I need to declare size of layer before I do stroke. New Photo-Paint layer is just "empty", I can draw crazy things, select my layer and make mask of these "crazy" paintings. I think I cant do that in Gimp. Do many strokes with many curves, circles etc in one layer. Then try to make mask from these strokes, fill them all with gradient. In corel its something like that: object border->layer border->selection border->mask(could be, dont have to). So I can make selection from layer borders and voila! Maybe I'm missing something but I can't find a way to do it in Gimp. I don't know, maybe its not common feature, anyway I find it very useful, I dont expect to get free, professional program, I am just asking :) -- wiorys (via www.gimpusers.com) _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
