[Gimp-user] Text entry-keyboard captured as shortcuts

2009-11-07 Thread Carusoswi
I don't know how else to express it, but I'm running a fresh install of Gimp
2.7.1.  The freshness because I just installed Ubuntu-Studio as a fresh
install, so had to install 2.7.1 also freshly.

Everything appears to be working except that when I want to enter text, I
select the text tool with my mouse pointer, draw a box on the canvas, I can
double click in the box, but no insertion cursor appears.  Further, if I try
to type anything, other tools are highlighted (letter E activates the elipse
selection tool, for example).

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Oh, one more thing, how can I enter text the old way instead of using the on
canvas option?  I've made this selection, but don't remember how I got there.

Just read the full error messages. It tells you what to do. If you need
more help, please read the pkg-config manual page.

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.7

2009-11-07 Thread Carusoswi
SOLVED.  Had to run

sudo apt-get install libgegl-0.0-0

and that fixed it.  Back in business.  That's part of what I love about open
source.  You have a problem, and a little searching reveals the answer.

Love it.

[Gimp-user] Fit text to path problem GIMP 2.8 Windows XP

2009-11-07 Thread Adam B.
Sorry guys - newb question

I've been trying to fit some text to a path, created the path ok, Layers menu
| Text along path seems ok, Path along Selection from Paths dialog seems OK,
clicked the eye icon next to my path to hide it ok - the text shows correctly
fit with the pink stuff around it but when I export to GIF etc. the text which
has been fitted along the path isn't visible - same problem if I display the
path ...

Am I missing something obvious ?

Thanks in advance

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.7

2009-11-07 Thread Carusoswi
Ok, I lost my preferences when I installed Ubuntu Studio 9.10, so I need to
re-install Gimp 2.7.1.

Followed the instructions for compiling/installing as shown on the home page
of this forum.  Everything seemed to go smoothly, except, when I run the
command to start Gimp, nothing happnen.

When I navigate to the location where that command says Gimp 2.7 is supposed
to reside, that file is not there.

What did I do wrong?

Looks like you didn't set LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it needs to be set during
configure-time since configure links a test-program

Where did you install glib-2.22.2 ?

You will probably have to set the environment variable to look for the
libraries. It has found the correct pkg-config

Have you seen this;
http://www.gimpusers.com/news/2009-10-14/compiling-gimp-27-git-ubuntu-904-910.html

you mightn't be on Ubuntu, but the theory is still the same. Follow
that to the letter and you should be right.
