[Gimp-user] whan means tube button ?

2010-02-03 Thread Cristian Secară
In menu File - Create - Web Page Themes - Classic.Gimp.Org
there are several tube labels.

What means tube ? Is this the geometrical object tube ? (like a
hollow cylinder or pipe of metal, glass, rubber, etc., (Webster Dict.))
What is its alike with gimp.org ?

Example from a tooltip: Create an image of a Tube Button Label using
the gimp.org webpage theme.
Ok, I go to http://gimp.org. Where are the tubes ? (what should I search
for ?)

the old homepage survived on
http://classic.gimp.org

I think it's best to just change the reference to that address.
(unless someone dares to remove these scripts from core GIMP)

Re: [Gimp-user] how to invert greyscale values only...

2010-02-03 Thread Rich Evans
Ken --- close. but no cigar... 
the steps: 1) Colors - Desaturate; 2) Colors - Invert leaves me with a 
greyscale image... all color is gone :-( I'm looking for a filter that will 
invert only black, white and grey pixels... leaving color saturated pixels 
alone.

Owen --- I will investigate the python solution. thanks for the advice.

All --- Maybe the best question to ask is this... where online should I go to 
learn about how GIMP filters are developed? I suppose once I learn how to make 
on filter.. I suspect I will quickly conjure up other filter ideas as well...

For completeness, my original question is this: I have an RGB image that is 
basically a black background with many
colorful objects and white text.  --- I'd like to invert the image so
that it is a white background with black text but a simple invert
inverts the colors in all the colored objects as well. Is there a
technique or tool to invert any part of the image that is only a shade of grey?
i.e. invert pixeils with a saturation of ~0 (if that is how you say
it). I could imagine a filter that does a simple RGB invert for any
pixel whose calculated RGB saturation value is below a set threshold.
Does this type of tool/script exist?

 not completely satisfied with sven's method, working on some pictures
 but not any, depending on the shades.
 I used to do it in CMYK a long time ago with photoshop by just pushing
 the image to CMYK and inverting the K curve.
 I guess something might be done with decompose color filter or so. But
 the quicker/best average i've found is just adding a mask based on the
 layer (L from Lab or N form CMYK could be used too), and play with the
 curve to adapt to the shades+refine with brush on mask. It takes few
 seconds if the picture is not too complex. Then put a white layer below
 and it's quite done. But i'm not completely satisfied with it.

Meanwhile (and bearing in mind you haven't let us see the image in 
question), would this work?:
Duplicate layer, invert bottom layer and cut all blacks and whites out 
of (transparent) top layer (of course, if there's a range of greys it 
gets more complicated).

[Gimp-user] How to crop with defined aspect ratio ???

2010-02-03 Thread helices
When I'm editing an image and I want to crop that image so it will print
8x10 or 5x8 or whatever, I'm challenged by adjusting the selection box
to exactly the right proportions.

What am I missing?

I usually use the Canvas Size option for that, and then reposition
the picture within the scaled canvas before clicking Ok. But it's a
bit tough to re-position the picture precisely because it looks so
small in the dialog.

I'd love to hear how others do it. I wish there was an interactive
selection transform tool that I can use modifier keys with.

The Crop tool's options includes a checkbox for Fixed: Aspect ratio
and a field where you can type in 8:10 or 5:8 or whatever you need.

 Mike,

 When you select the Crop tool, there is a settings dialog?  (I do it from
 the toolbox).

 On the settings dialog, there is a Fixed checkbox.  Check that, then
 select Aspect Ratio from the drop down to the right of it.

 In the box below, enter in 8:10 or 10:8 or 5:8 or 8:5.  If you get the
 wrong one (is it height:width or width:height, I can never remember), you
 can use the paper sheets next to the box to make the selection.

 Hope this helps.

 Dave


I note that I replied to sender, instead of the list.  Culpa mea.

[Gimp-user] editing a grid of multiple files

Is there a way in GIMP to

- modify them with GIMP
- then save them back as separate files again?
