[Gimp-user] circle border wrong shape
Hi guys, I'm hoping someone can help me. It seems that I have accidentally changed a setting but I don't know how to fix it. I am trying to create a circle with a thick edge/border,like this (https://www.dropbox.com/s/lbmhcfjh4t3ieww/circle.jpeg) I am going to have text in the border. It worked fine as in previous pic but gimp wont let me do it anymore. When I try to create a circle with wide edge now the shape completely changes to a diamond type shape (https://www.dropbox.com/s/wkxa0am057xzvx1/wrong-circle.jpeg) It's not a circle anymore! I am guessing that I must have changed some setting but don't know how to fix it. I would be very grateful if someone could help me.

I had not understood what you did with LibreOfice, I assume they came out OK. Hmmm. What happens when you print from GIMP into a file instead of the printer? Is the output file looking right?

I've even spent quite a bit of $ putting new print cartridges in my printer, even though they were not empty. Just trying to cover everything I can think of. The picture just comes out pink. There should be no pink in this picture. I have lots of trashed pages printed with Gimp, one with LibreOffice tex, one with LibreOffice Draw. There are also thin vertical white lines on the print. It looks fine if Print Preview. All settings on both file and printer are set to Best. RGB color. There are a lot of possibilities - it can be GIMP, Linux, your printer or other stuff. I would try this: - export the image as a JPEG, in the original size and good quality. - import that image into a Libre Office text document with the size of your paper as the document size - print that from Libre Office. If this comes out OK, GIMP is the culprit, if not, then it's Linux or your printer. These white stripes can be caused by a not properly aligned print head. I hope this helps!

[Gimp-user] GIMP behaviour problem
Hoping that somebody could help me, please. I'm a complete novice. A couple of weeks ago I began using GIMP, and followed this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zh4FxZc7C4s It has worked perfectly until today. I can no longer tear a photo. Each time I open an image, it gives itself the name Background. When I lasoo a corner of the image and select it to get the marching ants, and then click Edit, Cut, Edit Paste, it forms a new floating layer called Distress Scratch layer, and instantly merges itself with the Background layer. When I open a new layer, there is nothing in it. The cut piece of the image has gone back to the original image. I am using exactly the same procedure as I have been doing for two weeks. I have tried tearing an image already saved as an xcf file, an image saved as a jpg file, and a completely new image that hasn't been touched by GIMP, all with the same result. I've closed down the computer and restarted, but that has not helped. It feels as if something within GIMP has changed itself to make it behave in this way. Can anybody, please, tell me what to do next? Many thanks. -- Frenchhen (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
