I never had a problem loading JPGs. Pehaps you have a faulty instalation.

Do you get any error messages? Can you make one such file avaliable to us?

Could you give more details about what you mean by gimp will not load 
them. For instance, does gimp display any error message (in a pop-up 
window) ? If not, can you open in in a console (e.g. xterm on unices 
or command window in windows). Do you see any error messages there ? 
Also, can you try with a stable version of gimp, preferably the latest, 
2.2.8 and does it work ?


Best regards,

Olivier.

[Gimp-user] Gimp Screencapture Question

2005-10-26 Thread Kaplan, Andrew H.
Hi there -- 

I am running GIMP 2.2 and am trying to capture a section of rather than the
entire screen. I go to File/Acquire and select Single Window in the Grab
utility. A cross hairs appears and I select a portion of the screen. 

However, instead of just that area of the screen being captured, the entire
screen is captured. What steps or settings do I need to change to correct this?
Thanks.

Single window capture is just that.  You will get a single window.  In
gimp-2.3 there is a select a region of your desktop option.  Since gimp
has never had this option, i have had a difficult time remembering to
try it even (old work habits die hard or something).

Thanks Carol,
I wasn't sure of the Gimp's screen capture, because I never use it, so 
I'm glad you answered what it will do.  To Andrew though, if you are 
running KDE on your system, KSnapshot will do exactly what you are 
looking for.  Not sure what system you are running, mine is SuSE and 
it's part of the kdegraphics files, but if you're running a different 
Linux, it will be part of something else in KDE.

Of course, if you are running something else, you're on your own!  ;o)
