[Gimp-user] importing a PS brush into Gimp 2.3
I thought that it was possible to import a Photoshop brush into Gimp 2.3. I have one, with the .abr suffix, but I can't open it with the Open dialogue (unknown file type). How should I proceed? By the way, one problem I have with brushes is that I'm interested in large collections of real Gimp brushes, available in some places. However, to place all of them at the same time in the brushes directory makes choosing a brush among more than thousand of them very awkward. Could it be possible to have sub-directories in the brushes directory, and to access them when needed? Presently, my only solution is to make this by hand, moving a symbolic link among the various directories I built. Pretty complicated and unnatural. Yes, I know I should try programming this myself. But it would need so much time to learn all the stuff needed that I would not be able to do this before several months, if not years. -- Olivier Lecarme ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

I did it (setting color-rgb to 1.0 1.0 1.0). Unfortunately, the only result is that the brush outline is now white, and still persistent. Thus my current solution is to have the Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" in my xorg.conf file, and not use the Wacom mouse as a painting tool. This does not prevent me to use Gimp 2.3, fortunately. -- Olivier Lecarme ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] the Wacom mouse does not write in Gimp 2.3
Due to a bug in the ATI Xorg video driver, I have had to add recently to my xorg.conf file the following line in Section "Device": Option "AccelMethod" "EXA" This solved the problem (an Xor error occuring when the outline of a brush on the image window is persistent), but introduced another one. Since it occurs only for the Wacom mouse (and not the PS/2 mouse or the Wacom stylus), and only in Gimp 2.3, I'm submitting it to both lists. Briefly said, the tablet mouse works correctly, and no longer leaves the outline image of the brush, but it does not paint visibly. However, the image is changed, in the opinion of Gimp. All occurs as if it paints in invisible color. The tablet mouse works correctly for all other matters. The PS/2 mouse, and the tablet stylus and eraser, paint as expected. Finally, with Gimp 2.2, the tablet mouse paints correctly. What could explain such a behavior? What further information could be useful? -- Olivier Lecarme ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Followed by 'Crop' to taste. Actually, no. On Linux/X11/DWM, for example, it does.. precisely nothing. Gnome includes that keybinding you mention, so it will work if you are running Gnome, but not KDE. Also-- does a Mac keyboard even HAVE a PrintScreen key?

Hi, Akki! In MacOS X, you may do the following: 1. Use the system-wide keyboard shortcuts for taking screenshots into the Clipboard: Control + Shift + Command + 3> a shot from the entire screen Control + Shift + Command + 4> a shot from a selection of the screen Control + Shift + Command + 4 and then press SPACEBAR > a shot from only one window By the way, if you use these commands without pressing the CONTROL key, the images are stored in a file, not the clipboard. 2. In GIMP, use File > Acquire > From Clipboard Have fun!

[Gimp-user] anyone give me pot file for gimp-program?
Hi, guys. I'm intending to update my own tongue file. so I open po file using poedit. then I recognize there's something wrong. thus I think I may need pot file(catalog file), but I can't make it. Is anyone who give me the pot file? for gimp-program, script-fu, plugin, lib..

This setting only exists as a workaround for buggy display drivers. If lines on the canvas are not correctly undrawn, try to set this to white.
