[Gimp-user] Scroll buttons

2014-08-13 Thread 127markaz
Despite what others have said, this is nothing to do with your window
manager.

It is entirely controlled from the theme you are using. The simple way
to get back to having the stepper at the normal end of the scrollbar
is to switch back to using the default theme : 
EditPreferencesTheme and select Default.

However, if you wish to continue using this theme you will have to
edit the rc file(s) associated with it to allow the use of the
backward stepper and not display the secondary backward stepper:

  GtkScrollbar::has-backward-stepper = 1
  GtkScrollbar::has-secondary-backward-stepper = 0

Thanks so much for the replies akovia, Jernej Simončič and Kevin Payne. I will
start with changing the Gimp theme back to the default and work from there. I’ll
report back on any successes or failures.

Interesting. Started in Gimp with Edit  Preferences  Theme only to find that
there was no default theme. I do remember that there used to be a Small theme
located there as well. Perhaps this IS the problem.

Then restored Windows back to the default theme and there was NO EFFECT on the
scroll buttons in Gimp.

If I were just to re-install Gimp (not uninstall it first) to regain the Default
and Small themes, would it delete the current themes in the themes folder?

[Gimp-user] Scroll buttons

2014-08-12 Thread 127markaz
Strangest thing...I went to scroll a pic to the left and the scroll button
wasn't there. Its positioned has moved next to the right scroll button (pic).
The same is true for the scroll up button. It's moved next to the scroll down
button. How do I move them back to their proper positions? Using 2.6.8.

[Gimp-user] Scroll buttons

2014-08-12 Thread 127markaz
* 127markaz for...@gimpusers.com [08-12-14 14:53]:
GIMP does not get to choose it's display (or window) manager, you do. 
I
use KDE4 on openSUSE-Factory and see nothing resembling your example. 
But
I have 2.8.10 so it may have changed.
I thought you were referring to a Gimp function. Did a Windows restart to no
avail. Is the window in 2.8.10 substantially different?

[Gimp-user] Vista style glassy buttons

2013-10-22 Thread 127markaz
The internet is replete with video tutorials on how to create shiny or
glassy Vista-style buttons primarily using PhotoShop. As a user of Gimp for
the past 8 years I searched here and other Gimp sites for a WRITTEN TUTORIAL,
not videos. Over the years I lost what I thought was the best step-by-step
tutorial and would like to find a suitable replacement on how to make these
buttons.
Does anyone know if a non-video tutorial exist on this site or other Gimp
specific site that explains the creation of these buttons.?

Any help pointing me in the correct direction would be greatly appreciated. I
have an extremely abbreviated version of what I used before (attached) but after
such a long hiatus, it looks Greek to me.

Thanks so much,

127markaz

[Gimp-user] Converting jpegs to pngs

2013-06-07 Thread 127markaz

Make sure that the image has an alpha channel and that there are
transparent parts before exporting.

That was it! In checking while saving as a .png, the save transparent pixels was
grayed out. Took the original .jpg and clicked on Layers  Transparency  Add
alpha channel and erased some of the background to confirm. No more
whiteonly transparency. In all these years I suppose I've been lucky with
the many .jpg pics I've rendered because I've never encountered this before.

I can't begin to thank everyone for your rapid responses and helping me learn
something and resolving this perceived problem.

Again, thank you very much.

[Gimp-user] Converting jpegs to pngs

2013-06-06 Thread 127markaz
It used to be that I could take any ,jpg file, then save it as a .png so that I
would have a transparent background in order to render the pic. Now, for
whatever reason, when converted the background remains white. What setting has
changed that I can no longer get a transparent background after the .png
conversion? Gimp V. 2.6.8.
