Re: [Gimp-user] Let GIMP autoly determines the image size when copy and paste?

[Axel Wernicke]

Hi,


 How can I use GIMP without specify the image size and let is  
 automatically determines the image size?

there is a command that creates a new image using the content of the  
clipboard. It is located in the toolboxfile-acquire submenu and  
you can find a description at http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-file- 
acquire.html

Hope that helps,

lexA





 Thanks.

 S. D.

Re: [Gimp-user] Let GIMP autoly determines the image size when copy and paste?

[Andreas Waechter]

 I am using windows and want to grab a window, I use the following method:
 
 1. ALT + printscreen (copy);
 2. use GIMP for a new file;
 3. Crtl + v to paste.
 
 Now in step 2 I have to specify the image size, but I have no idea how big 
 the image is.  Every time I have to adjust the image a couple of time to let 
 the canvas to EXACTLY fit the copied image size.

Why not use:

in Gimp: File - Aquire - Screenshot
select Grab a single window, then Grab
Drag and drop the cross to the window you want.

 How can I use GIMP without specify the image size and let is automatically 
 determines the image size?

see above.
