[Gimp-user] Howto composite over- and under-exposed images
Hello, is there an easy way to to take shadows from over-exposed image and highlights of under-exposed image and composite them together? (Assuming the two images are exactly the same, e.g. take from tripod or in a quick bracketing sequence.) I know I could use manual masking of affected areas of one image, however, I would prefer to have GIMP create a mask for 'highlights' automatically (with soft transition to shadows) or even manually on a basis of a transition curve.

[Gimp-user] Transform selection, lock layers
Hi everybody, I would be a very happy GIMP user only if you could let me know how can be transformed an image selection or other object's selection. Also, some quick questions: cannot find anywhere info about how a GIMP layer can be locked or if the layers can be organized into directories or some other way? Thanks a lot. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Transform selection, lock layers
thanks a lot for the answer, very appreciated. regarding the selection transforming was actually referring on how to edit / modify / adjust a selection?

There are possibilities to transform them into masks and paths in GIMP??

As far as I know there is no way to organize layers in a tree structure neither can you lock them in GIMP right now. But may be I'm wrong?

Once a selection is made it is treated internally as raster data - that means it is impossible to, say, increase an elliptical selection radius after it is ready (but people are working out a way tot hat with rectangular selections). But all transform tools (move, scale, rotate, perspective, etc...) have mmodes to operate on the selection. Just select one of the transform tools, and on the tool options dialog, pick the work on selection (second icon on the top of the dialog). With most tools, the work on selection mode can also be achieved by holding ALT while clicking - but ALT + click is normally used by Window Managers, so the combination often doesn't work.

[Gimp-user] GIMP single instance
Hi, How can I have only a single GIMP instance? If I have GIMP already open and I double click on some xcf file or other this is opening me up a new GIMP instance. I would like to have opened a new window on the same session. Thanks. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I'm really sorry for my persistence but just found another thing that worries me: if i have a group of graphics, how can i move them across the canvas all together? i'm talking about lots of layers that needs to be located on some other place on the same window without merging them into a single one. Although there are no layer groups or trees in the GIMP, you can have a single layer group, formed by linked layers. To link a layer, you just click on the layer dialog next to the visibility ?(eye) icon - a chain link will appear to indicate it is linked. Whenever you perform a transform - move, scale, etc..., it is performed in all linked layers. To move another group of layers, you have to unlink all the previous, and link all layers of the set you want to move.

[Gimp-user] file types
Since I installed Gimp, all my image files on desktop are IDed as Gimp files instead of JPG, BMP,TIFF etc. It would be useful to see these IDs before clicking on the files. Is there an option forrestoring them? CLIFF HANLEY ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Is there an option for restoring them? Install the program that created these identifications, or restore your mime-types from a backup. (You do have a backup, don't you? ;) Maybe also installing another program might overwrite GIMPs type settings with it's own, which are then used thereafter -- if the program restores the JPG/BMP/TIFF/etc types, then you should be fine. It depends on the type of desktop - IIRC, different ones (GNOME, XFCE, MS Windows) use different ways of identifying file types and showing them to you. -- ~Mike - Just my two cents - No man is an island, and no man is unable. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
