How _exactly_ did you try to resize the canvas? What menu item did you
choose to do this?

This is difficult because it's not Ps, and I get the impression you haven't
had a chance to read through he manual yet.

Perhaps you could upload an .xcf file that you're having problems with for
us to see? https://filebin.net the come back here and give us the link.

[Gimp-user] why autocrop layer would not cut all the blanks?

[programmer_ceds]

To answer your third question, there are a number of scripts that will draw
arrows, one of which is described at:

http://registry.gimp.org/node/28566

The script itself can be downloaded from:

http://www.programmer97.talktalk.net/Files/arrow.zip

The arrows are drawn in the currently selected foreground colour.

I think the answer os in chain83 post here
https://www.reddit.com/r/postprocessing/comments/38vdao/how_does_everyone_sharpen_their_photos/

According to that, you're suggesting to also apply input sharpening

Thanks for the tip anyway.

Thanks for your explanation. It seems I hadn't reduce the upper level low
enough. This time I reduce it to 230 and it works as expected.

[Gimp-user] How to input multiple lines of text onto seperate photos

[TeddyRuxpinBear]

>In the Script-Fu examples (0 0 0) should be '(0 0 0)

Thank you Kevin. It seems that this is my problem now: 

(4)(#t)Error: ((gimp-file-save NONINTERACTIVE Untitled Background
"c:\Users\lukek\Desktop\RequiredFolder\SectionA" "") : 4) eval: unbound
variable: Untitled

I tried changing the name of the file with (gimp-image-set-filename Untitled
Picture), but it seems to have caused a new error

(5)Error: ((gimp-context-set-background '(0 0 0))
(gimp-text-fontname Picture Background 100 100 "Hello" 0 TRUE 90 PIXELS "Times
New Roman")
(gimp-file-save NONINTERACTIVE Picture Background
"c:\Users\lukek\Desktop\RequiredFolder\SectionA" "") : 3) eval: unbound
variable: Untitled

[Gimp-user] resizing canvas question

[carla]

I'm getting so frustrated with the lack of intuitive functioning of this
program I'm  just about ready to go back and pay for photoshop. Arghhh
I have made a change in an image rotating part of it so that it now extends
above the edge of the canvas. Resizing the canvas to layers does  nothing. I
had similar problems extending the canvas when I added an image from another
file but nothing worked to fix that problem either. It was all so easy in
photoshop- why is this so difficult
