Thank you.

That works a treat - once i worked out how to get a usable path.

Is there anyway of making a toolbox button (or keyboard short-cut) to make it
easier to access the Auto-Rotate function, instead of right clicking, selecting
layers, then selecting auto-rotate?

Thanks again.

Thank you again.

I did look in the keyboard short cut but didn't find auto-rotate, and i
completely didn't notice that there was a search option.

thanks again.

This program does quite a lot.

Goodbye Adobe.

[Gimp-user] Straighten Horizons

2017-09-09 Thread Mabel
Hi,

I have just installed GIMP v2.8.22

I may have missed this function in the help system.

is there an easy way to Straighten Horizons?

i can use the ROTATE tool but is there a LINE DRAWING TOOL?

Basically is there a way to draw a line along the horizon in the photo using the
mouse and have GIMP make this the horizontal axis?

Thanks

The standard way is the Rotate tool in 'Corrective (Backward)' mode, line the
grid up with the horizon, click rotate, and the image is rotated accordingly.

However, to draw a 'line' you need a script. One attached 'auto-rotate.scm'
**unzip** it pop it into your Gimp profile scripts folder

Windows C:\Users\"yourname"\.gimp-2.8\scripts

or Linux ~.gimp-2.8/scripts

Usage: Draw a **path** along the horizon, then apply the script, Layer ->
Auto-Rotate
