Thanks Rich. I will get the gmic plugin but I think I the last time I did something simuliar was to 'pick' each color and just delete them. Delete the red and black colors and leave the blue. But I don't see how I did it that way with the commands I have. I will try the process you show in the video. -- Sorceress99 (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

You can get most of your requirement using the gmic gimp plugin from www.gmic.eu I would do it as this 3 minute video: https://youtu.be/9esPa-CP628 but plenty of repair still required. -- rich404 (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

Still some cleaning left to do, and painting where the red tracks have left white lines in the circuits. Personally for such a small circuit, I would redraw it, you need a couple of brushes for the solder points, a brush to draw straight lines, and wider areas can be filled with the polygon selection. ___ 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

I am trying to separate the 2 sides of a printed circuit board photo and can't remember how to do it. The circuit diagram is in blue and the parts layout is in black. Wiring placement is in red is irrevelant and can be deleted. The PCB pattern, in blue, is printed on glossy photo paper on a laser printer, in black. The print is set on 'high quality' so needs to be sharp and clear. The image is then positioned, face down on a blank copper clad PCB then transfered to the board by various means such as heat lamination or chemically. Once completed, the parts layout is printed on the laser as before, positioned in alignment with the circuit side, then transfer to the opposite side of the board as before. Any help with separating the 2 images would be appreciated.
