[Gimp-user] Resizing an imaged - revisted
Hello all, I have photo of my wife which is an up close shot of the face. Because she is near sighted the view of eyes through the tri-focual lens are made so small such that the side of the head shows through the lens. I have removed the eyes to separate layers (left and right eye layers) when the three layers are made visible it looks like the original image. But no matter how I try I can not resize an eye image without the other layers getting resized also. I can not un-anchor nor dissociate the eye layer from the face? The layers are not anchored together in the layers dialog. How does one do that? thanks in advance, HarryA -- HarryA (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

The layers are not anchored together in the layers dialog. How does one do that? You are probably resizing the image and not the layer. Try this: 1. Make the left eye layer the active layer. 2. Use the rectangle select tool to make a selection around the eye and quite a bit more, but smaller than the whole image. 3. Layer / Crop to selection 4. Clear the selection (Select / None) 5. To make the layer larger: Layer / Scale Layer Gary ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
