Re: Smoothing gradient Q...
It was Fri, 12 Jan 2001 13:57:16 +0100, when you spake, JG JG I notice the banding doesn't take place if I use the gradient red pipe JG plugin. It renders it and all gradients flawless. Just the standard... JG JG Any other thing you can think of s appreciated. It sort of ruins what JG I'm doing and so causes massive depression, loss of appetite, etc. JG JG Thanks for the feedback. JG JG Jonathan are you starting the gradient about an inch in from the edge of the page by chance? if so, try starting the gradient on the edge of the layer (or outside the layer). this might be from the all-to-obvious department, but who knows? -- Nusbaum's Rule: The more pretentious the corporate name, the smaller the organization.

Re: Alt+Drag and Drop
It was Mon, 8 Jan 2001 09:13:17 +0100 , when you spake, CE Hello, CE CE Normally, with the Alt+Drag and Drop, you can move the selection. But, i use CE Gnome (sawfish) and if you use this function, it's the window that move (as CE if i drag the window title). Is there a solution (configuration of X) to CE avoid this behavior ? CE CE Salutations. CE CE I'm not sure about Sawfish, but in WindowMaker a similar problem arises. I fixed the problem here by changing the default windowmanager mouse binding key to MOD4 (crusty windoze key), so now if i want to move a window (for example), I use mod4(meta), not mod1(alt). -- An alcoholic is someone you don't like who drinks as much as you do. -- Dylan Thomas -- -={ s y n g i n }=- -={ [EMAIL PROTECTED] }=- --
Re: What's with GIMP and TIFF already?
thats the problem. I don't think that's is the problem. I can't open most PC/Mac TIFF images, like from Photoshop, without resaving them with ACDSee. The rest of the world has no problems, but Gimp (or libtiff) does. I'm using Linux. -- Mat [insertion of previous post] Regards, Hedley [Windows 2000, GIMP v 1.1.24 (Kimball Mattis port), FrameMaker v 5.5.6p145] [end insertion] Are you the same person I replied to? PS: I'm opening up all kinds of TIFFs in GIMP without problems, so who knows where the issue lies if you're using linux - perhaps its a distro thing. -- "... one of the main causes of the fall of the Roman Empire was that, lacking zero, they had no way to indicate successful termination of their C programs." -- Robert Firth -- -={ s y n g i n }=- -={ [EMAIL PROTECTED] }=- --
Re: What's with GIMP and TIFF already?
Around Thu, 21 Dec 2000 09:49:44 +1000, [EMAIL PROTECTED] spake thus: Gimpsters: I capture screen shots with SnagIt, edit in Gimp, and save as TIFF. (Aside: Gimp insists on including the 'Made by Gimp' comment even though preferences are set for NOTHING.) FrameMaker cannot open Gimp TIFF and neither can several pixmap editors. So I use Graphics Workshop to convert Gimp TIFF to (obviously) some other TIFF variant that the rest of the known universe can recognise. And, guess what, Gimp cannot read Graphics Workshop TIFF. Any clues, workarounds, preferences, or whatever for this? Also, clicking the LZW Compression checkbox in the Save As dialogue gives an error message saying that no LZW is available. Do I have to download some plugins or whatever for this functionality? Finally, a weensy gripe. Why is the file browser so slloow? You click a subdirectory or a parent directory, wonder if you missed the target, whooops! after pondering Gimp has decided to recognise your first click and act on it, your second click hits some other directory (usually a drive letter, just to take you back to the top to get you really mad!). I know it's written in Scheme/Lisp, but really, isn't finding a directory a little easier than convolving a 23 Mb graphic? Regards, Hedley [Windows 2000, GIMP v 1.1.24 (Kimball Mattis port), FrameMaker v 5.5.6p145] sounds to me like your using a devlelopment port based in Winblows...oh...you are. your TIFF library that GIMP is referencing is buggered mate. GIMP doesnt save TIFFs, nor open them, libtiff does (dunno what the library is called in windoze). the problems with the browser may have something to do with your filesystem. GIMP was written under ext2fs, msw2000 doesnt use that, maybe thats the problem. syngin -- It's a good thing we don't get all the government we pay for. -- -={ s y n g i n }=- -={ [EMAIL PROTECTED] }=- --
