You dont say how wide the strip is.

If a very narrow strip, line width say, it may be appropriate to use the clone 
tool and clone the adjacent area

If it is a wide strip, you may wish to use the rectangle select tool.
 
 a. Select say the left hand area, note the size of the rectangle fo later
 b. Copy (ctrl+c) and paste as a new layer
 c. Now select the right hand area, copy and paste as another new layer

Use your layers dialog to join the two layers

Perhaps use the smudge tool to even out the discontinuity of the join

[Gimp-user] Removing a vertical strip

2015-09-21 Thread Timothy Murphy
I'm a complete gimp newbie -
I installed it on my Fedora-22/KDE laptop yesterday.

I want to remove a vertical strip from a photo,
and join the remaining two parts together.
I'd be very grateful if some kind soul could tell me how to do this.

I assume I should be using the guillotine tool.
I have looked at the basic tutorials,
but have not seen any explicit examples of doing what I need.

I did look briefly at the slice plugin,
but could not see how to download and install it on my laptop.

Could you post the image? What file format, layers, etc?

I suppose I can tell you that you can download GIMP builds from my
Website (www.partha.com) where the builds do not cause such issues.
However, my builds are not officially sanctioned by the GIMP
developers but I am not in the habit of producing malwares or viruses.

Hi Michael,
I've tried your suggestions but no joy.

Hi Kevin,
Many thanks. Yes, I've been opening RAW files. I tried again with a JPG and find
that it opens fine. I suppose I need to find a plug-in for RAW files now?
Thanks,

HI Shlomi,
First of all, I should say I'm not exactly PC savvy when it comes to technical
stuff.
Yes, I read all the pitfalls about downloading any programs and can confirm that
I downloaded from http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ .
My operating system is Windows 10 but I'm afraid I don't know what the CPU
version or architecture is.
I've attached a screenshot.
Hope this helps.
Liparis
