Re: [Gimp-user] Grey Mask for Lenticular Images

Use Auto Contrast. in gimp-2.2 use the plug-in found at Image/Layers/Color/Decompose it has a default setting to RGB so you can run the plug-in without changing anything in the dialog. a new image grayscale image will appear with three layers. with the original image in focus, right click on Dialogs/Layers and duplicate the original layer (or find the way to add the alpha channel to the original). right click again on Dialogs/Layers and add a mask to the duplicated layer. depending on which version of gimp you are using, there was a couple of releases where copying from a grayscale image into an rgb image would make gimp crash, so i am usually careful to change the decompose output to rgb before copying with the decompose image in focus, select the green layer in Dialogs/Layers and Edit/Copy. then with the original image in focus, Edit/Paste. Touch the anchor button on the lower portion of Dialogs/Layers and the floating layer from the paste should adhere itself to the layer mask. you can run some plug-ins on a layer mask, Auto Contrast is no exception. i will let you find that filter on your own. the layers dialog will indicate which component of the layer is active by changing the color around the thumbnail. this way, you can choose whether the plug-ins work on the image or on the layer. when a layer is added, the default is that the layer is in focus, so you can safely avoided changing it for this task. thank you for asking this question. i was just playing with these 'layer effects' and i really hadn't found too much that was as promising as this one to be useful: http://carol.gimp.org/GIMP/layer-effects/ i suspect that some of this email will appear there as well. carol ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Ok, this is interesting. I ran gimp with the parameter --verbose and here's what I get: (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande Semi-Bold 11.5224609375 (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande Semi-Bold 11.5224609375 (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande 11.5224609375 (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande 9.6015625 (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande 8.6416015625 (gimp-2.2:15593): Pango-WARNING **: Cannot open font file for font Lucida Grande Oblique 11.5224609375 But, this doesn't happen for the other account.
