[Gimp-user] Tools window
Whats up with the tools window? See my view: All the tools can be selected pressing a key combination such as A, S, P, CTRL E blahblahblah. So, less points for it. The menu that was once was there is no more there. Less points for it. The tool options has move, by myself, to a combination of dockable dialogues because putting it on the tools windows only makes less room for the image I will edit. Less points to it. Closing that means closing the whole app. Less points to it. The minimize button that was once there is no more there. Less points for it. Conclusion: Its points-less for me having that displayed in my desktop however I cant close or minimize that!

Re: [Gimp-user] Opacity
Hmm... There is no button to do this? Only ways using features that are not made exactly for it? Developers read this mail list? Can I suggest this? A simple toogle box that change mix opacity to exact opacity. Well, in that case. I will use masks, hope any developer read this.

But I want the pixel WHITE AND WITH %50 OF OPACITY. I simply want to change the alpha when I draw and not how much the color change. Let's try a step by step solution so that your chances of mistake are diminshed: 1) open layers dialog (ctrl + l) 2) right click on layer, select Add layer mask 3) on the dialog that apears, choose White (full opacity) 4) Pick the pencil, black color, choose 50% opacity an start painting - you will be cretaing gray colr on the mask, which means your image, at the corresponding pixels, will be translucent. That will be depicted by a gaye checkered pattern you will be able to notice in the places you are painting 5) Before saving, click on the layer thumbnail on tehlayers dialog, so that it becomes the active drawable. Otherwhise, you will be saving only the mask itself 6) Be sure to save he file ina file format which accepts translucency - such as .png (don't try .jpg or .gif) Happy gimping! js -- ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user -- Check my gallery! http://lap1994.deviantart.com ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Re: [Gimp-user] Opacity
It will work. But is not a option of a tool, is a way to make it work. For me, it will work, but if someone need opacity AND a mask layer? What he will do!?

[Gimp-user] Things GIMP do not have, or I do not know if have
Here, a list of things GIMP do not have, in my mind: A ellipse tool to draw ellipse, as a rectangle tool to draw rectangle, and a polygon tool to draw ah, you know. A method to draw text using a system like boards systems to change text properties, font, style, size stuff. Like using bbold here!/b A way to draw curves. A way to deny modifications in a layer, and a way to change this property A method to organize layers. A method to assign a same mask to various layer modifying one mask A gradient color with more colors. Like Flash where you can set more than two colors in a gradient.

Re: [Gimp-user] Missing filters in GIMP-2.4.5
Hi, maybe you have re-download the installation. Because can be a data transfer error When I run gimp I get /usr/gimp-2.4.5/bin/gimp-2.4 Unable to read initialization file script-fu.init Your install is broken. None of the Script-Fu scripts will work without the script-fu.init file. I un-installed GIMP-2.4.5 then I re-installed it after verifying the md5 sum. The problem is the same. What can I do else?

[Gimp-user] How I save the settings of a tool?
I am learning Pixel Art. And if you do not know what is, you have the idea that iis about pixels. Well, I draw images at level of pixel. Then I have to draw with pixels, and erase with hard edge.

[Gimp-user] Animation solution!
As everyone know. A animation is various frames drawned one after other. To create a animation, the current frame and the previous frame have to looks like, however have to have a difference. To this happen you have to look the current frame and the previous frame, and then check if is changed correct and if is changed where you want. That waste a time. Because you have to toggle the visible of frames to check and check until you have certain that is correct. Well, the solution is very very simple. Is just make the previous frame 50% transparent. Then the current frame will have a shadow of the previous frame. This way you can see what is what. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

[Gimp-user] Gimp possibilities
Gimp is a very good image editor. It can edit scaned image, eg photos. Paint scaned drawings, manga skecths or inked drawings. Or simply create a image from the nothing. Gimp have very good filters created by very good developers, and very good tools. Have blur, motion blur, noise, each filter can be used for diferrents things, depending of the wanted result. Have pencil, brush and a spray for paint, each can be used, too, for diferrents things. Some techniques can be used to improve your images using Gimp resources, eg yellow supernova + blur = sun or white spray + cian background = sky with clouds. Using some of these you can create images from nothing. You can use layers to add nice effects to your image or organize diferrent things, such as house and scenary. A good and simple recourse is the text with effect. You draw a WHITE text, click in it layer, cut, paste in the MASK of other layer. Finished, text with effect. Yes, is really a very good image editor and manipulator. But only work when you know what you are doing. If do not know, just train until know. -- Example of wallpaper made in 15 minutes with Gimp, lap1994.deviantart.com, check Above The Clouds! ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
