Hi,

what OS X version are you on? If 10.5.x - did you read about the need  
to update X11? If the answers are yes and no, please go to
http://darwingimp.sourceforge.net/download.html and read the system  
requirements and update hints.

   I'm an innocent and naive iMac user who uses The Gimp only

 appears in the tool bar alongside the Apple icon, but nothing else
 shows up in the tool bar, and the window for The Gimp doesn't appear.
 I just finished downloading Gimp 2.4.6 and it still behaves as just
 described.  Gimp.app is in my Applications folder, all 111 megabytes,
 and X11 is in my Utilities folder.   The Apple technical person I
 spoke with said it had to be a Gimp problem, after we tried several
 things, none of which I understood.  (Create a new account and see if
 The Gimp launches in it.  Shut down the computer and see if that
 helps.   Download The Gimp again and see if it works.  Etc.)  Can
 anyone suggest some way I can understand this and try to restore The
 Gimp to functionality?  Thanks.

 1. You should probably uninstall gimp 2.4.3 and then reinstall 2.4.4.
 2. Gimp help is another download and install.

 I'm not familiar with Mac's and how they load software, so I can't
 really be more specific about this.

 I am attaching a second installment of comments as a text file below.
 I'm afraid the comments come across just as criticisms, so let me
 emphasize how much I appreciate what you've already done.  Ideally,

Since I explicitly asked for it, I should (and do) stand that now ;)
By now I did not fully examine what you wrote, but I'll do so in the

 rather than just complaining about this or that,  I should suggest  
 how I
 would phrase it instead.  Unfortunately, I don't feel comfortable  
 about
 writing documentation of this kind yet, so I would rather just raise
 points and hope you can figure out what I'm saying and include it in  
 the
 documentation if it seems appropriate.  I'm sure you will do a better
 job of it than I would at this stage.  When I feel more  
 comfortable,  I
 will suggest appropriate wording.

Well, let it put me this way: your english can't be worse than mine.  
Unfortunately there are right now 0 (in words: zero) native speaking  
people in the documentation team - the only reason for me writing  
english content is that there is no alternative :(

 I would find it easier to understand what gimp is actually doing if I
 could get at its guts. Instead, I have to do experiments and the  
 results
 can sometimes be misleading. I've tried several times to look at code,
 but I've been defeated each time, not by the code, but by the complex
 structure of the source tree.  Any suggestions about how to learn  
 about
 that without making it my life's work would be appreciated.

I most probably can't answer them too. If in doubt we need to ask the  
devs.

 I haven't yet had a chance to thoroughly examine what you've done,  
 but I
 plan to soon, and I will come up with additional comments.

That is what I'm hoping for



 Let me start by bringing up one issue, which it took me a long time to
 get straight, and which at first glance I didn't find in what you did.
 I'll describe it below as best I can.  I don't know how or where to
 incorporate it in the documentation, particularly since some of it  
 seems
 to be operating system dependent.  I do think it is important so I  
 hope
 you will fit it in,  perhaps in an easier to understand simplified  
 form.

I'll try read, understand and include that into the docs.

...
 In this connection, let me say that I think it is a mistake to prepare
 the documentation as if Linux users were odd balls who should be using
 XP or MacOS.

Whops!  - Did we do this? I think most members of the documentation  
team are even working on Linux. The manual should of course not  
discriminate any operating system or their user base.
Please let the documentation team know about such in detail by telling  
us and giving a reference to the page in question (as 
http://docs.gimp.org/en/...)

Version 2.4 of the GNU Image Manipulation Program is finally out.

Developers, artists and user interface designers from all over the  
world
worked together to make GIMP more powerful and easier to use than  
ever.

The changes from version 2.2 are described in the release notes on

  http://gimp.org/release-notes/gimp-2.4.html

For a more detailed list of changes, please have a look at the  
NEWS file

at http://developer.gimp.org/NEWS-2.4


If you want to compile GIMP 2.4 yourself, you can grab the tarball  
from

ftp.gimp.org or one of its mirrors:

 ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/v2.4/

Binary packages for the various supported platforms are expected to
become available over the next couple of days. The new gimp.org  
website

will help you to locate the packages for your system:

  http://gimp.org/downloads/


Thanks a lot to everyone who helped to improve GIMP.

The roadmap for GIMP 2.6 will be discussed over the next weeks on the
gimp-developer mailing-list. We can only tell you so much now: It is
going to rock and it shouldn't take as long to get it done as it  
took to

finish GIMP 2.4. If you want to join the effort, your help is much
appreciated.



Happy GIMPing,

Hi Bettina,

 Hi everyone,

 I know I should ask someone else. but like Victor Domingos - I post my
 question also here - maybe someone of you had the same problem.

indeed your question is not very close releated to GIMP and I'm not  
sure how I can help. For me the MacPorts gimp port works very well.
Am 26.08.2007 um 11:57 schrieb Bettina Lechner:

 I am using macports on mac osx 10.3 and tried to install gimp 2.4.0-

eeek, I think this might already lead to the error. The OS X 10.3 is  
already pretty old and there are a couple of differences in the  
development environment between 10.3 and 10.4.


 but it stopped with the following error(s):

 Building gtk2 with target all

 So I contacted the gimp2-maintainer an he answered:

 This problem is related not t gimp but to gtk on 10.3

 You can try gtk28 but if that fails, you should ask the gtk2  
 maintainer

 yves

There is not much to say about this. He is right. You should ask the  
MacPort gtk2 maintainer.


 unfortunatly I am not very fit to this things behind a programm... so:
 how can I try gtk28?
 what is the command? sudo port install gtk28?

try a port search gtk28:
gtk28  x11/gtk28  2.8.20   Gimp  
ToolKit version 2

but I'm pretty sure that GIMP 2.4 needs a more recent gtk than 2.8...


 should I than install gimp again?
 or before uninstall something?
 I am running gimp 2.2 (but installed with the dmg file not through  
 macports.
 might this be a problem?)

If there is nothing else you use MacPorts for, you could completely  
remove it (see http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/wiki/ 
FAQ#HowdoIremoveoruninstallMacPorts ), reinstall it and just do a
sudo port selfupdate; port sync; sudo port install gimp-app gimp



 ---
 and is it
 sudo port install gimp2 or gimp ?
does not matter (right now), both insall 2.4.0-rc1

 sorry for all these questions - but I really need gimp!
 can anybody help me?
 thank you very much in advance.
 tina

So in the end: mail the gtk2 maintainer - you find his address by  
doing a port info gtk2.

 Does anyone have any idea about what this means?

dbus is an infrastructure component that allows applications to talk

used to handle the opening of images from outside (the finder in our  
example) and only to start GIMP once.

dbus installs a so called startup item which starts dbus with OS X.  
If everything goes well, you should be able to find its process:

Hi list,

answering this kind of questions and explainig why exactly we can not
support GimpShop is a waste of time and done again and again and again...
... This clearly is a F.A.Q, which should we be able to answer by politely
providing a link to an FAQ entry on gimp.org. This could save us lots of
time which could be much better spend in further GIMP developement.

So how about we put together the top ten arguments to the ten questions that
is the most time wasted on the list(s)? This way we could shorten the
discussions about Why the GimpShop is not GIMP, What we think about the
Single Window Interface, Why GIMP is proud of its name and so on...

GIMP does IMHO not do this - if this happens for you, probably a new

Windows shortcoming to me. To work around this, you could open image  
files by dragging the file onto the GIMP toolbox instead of double-

Hi Victor,

Am 24.05.2007 um 01:22 schrieb Victor Domingos:

 Hello!

 I am currently using the GIMP on an Apple computer, more specifically
 a Powerbook G4. I runs quite well, but I feel like  it's a little
 slow. One of these days, I tryed to run it with Ubuntu Linux, in the
 same machine, and it seemed to run a lot faster. And I wonder now if
 there could be another GIMP version or build for Mac that would be
 more optimized for this platform. Does anyone know about any?

To tell you about other builds, you should have told us where you  
got your GIMP version from?
There are a couple of prebuild packages for OS X out there - e.g.  
GIMP.app at
http://gimp-app.sf.net . The most optimized solution however might be  
to build GIMP on your own
machine. To do so I'd recommend you have a look to darwinports at  
http://www.macports.org


 I know that there is a GIMP-related project named Seashore. It has a
 clean interface, but it is meanless to me, as it lacks most of the
 features I like to use...

Seashore has nothing to do with GIMP, except that some of the basic  
technologies that where developed for GIMP were used for a new  
application. Concerning features is Seashore much closer to Paint  
than to The GIMP.



 One other question... Is there a completely universal Mac version?
 Some weeks ago, I tryed to run the GIMP in a MacBook Pro (Intel C2D)
 and there were no Filters, and the cursor had a funny aspect Does
 anyone here use the GIMP under MacOS X in the new Intel Macs? Which
 version? And does everything work ok?

GIMP.app (see above) is AFAIK a universal package. Also building GIMP  
on your own machine gets you a i386 binary version. Right in the  
beginning (after Apples surprising switch to the dark side) there  
where indeed some more or less minor problems. Both, the yellow  
colored cursor as well as the missing filters are known phenomenon.  
One can be fixed in the GIMP preferences, and the other was (most  
likely) due to some bug in the GTK libraries and could be worked  
around by special environment variables.

I'm using GIMP at one of the very early MacBook Pros, build it with a  
little help of darwinports and do not have any problems you described  
any more.

Happy GIMPing,

lexA

 So the cursor problem is still not fixed? It would be worthwhile to

 the Apple X11 server but shouldn't it have been addressed by now then?

I haven't seen the yellow cursor for quite a while, but thought that  
it disappeared after I changed GIMPs cursor preferences. Lets see..
... oh, OK - the cursor preferences are _not_ set to black and white  
bitmap any more and the cursors are displayed correctly. So this  
means the problem is gone after all. (Tried with GIMP 2.3.16)
And yes, there have been some X11.app updates from Apple in the last  
6 months or so.

Although this is not the right mailing list (gimp-user would be a

 It should be easy though to write a plug-in that does this. One just
 needs to figure out the right values. Perhaps there are ICC color
 profiles for common brands of negatives that could help with this

There are some papers, so there is a solution :)

You can save layered images to gif as animated gif. By doing so, each

You might wand to have a look to the manual at page http://

 What about if I use darwinports or fink -- I assume there is a delay

The Portfile at darwin port is updated within 24 hours after a new

is done in a couple of days to a few weeks after a new release.

At all not a timeframe that one can complain about from my point of

 What would the similar feature be in Gimp
 It is used to make the edges of part of a layer to alpha
 so that the below image become visible,
 (visually merge with the below layer)

Hi Anthony,

gimp-app.sf.net is an excellent source to grep a prebuild an  
prepackaged version of the most recent stable version of GIMP.
To get hands on an unstable version is a bit more complicated. I'm  
running one on OS X, build with an unreleased ports file for darwin  
ports (http://darwinports.opendarwin.org/getdp/). Unfortunately some  
more important packages like gtk2 are not available in a recent  
version in fink, but in darwin ports only. If you want to be one of  
the brave, I can send you the ports file by mail.

Re: [Gimp-user] X11

2007-02-21 Thread Axel Wernicke
Hi,

the answer is: never, because not GIMP is bound in no way to X11, but to the 
GTK. A stable GTK is unfortunately for  Apples OS X only for an X11 backend 
available right now. But may be you can help the GTK project to finish their 
work on a native backend for OS X and help this to free GIMP from the X11 
slavery on Apple OS X.

Thank you for listening.

Yeah, AFAIK this is a one man project that uses some GIMP implementations

It looks like an interesting approach, but somehow I doubt that this is what

Hi,

I have tried the best I know how to change the yellow cursor color

When I open a file the cursor turns to a pale shade of yellow that  
is very hard to see.

I've tried to google for a solution too but have not had success yet.
I do not have the problems you describe, although I do indeed know  
the problem and remember having had it once myself.
I'm working on a MacBook Pro with the most current OS X 10.4.8 with  
all the latest security updates and all X11 updates. Current X11.app  
version is 1.1.3.

I'm running two different versions of GIMP:
- The most recent GIMP 2.3.13 compiled by myself (with a little help  
of darwin ports)

- A recent version of GIMP.app 2.2.11 from gimp-app.sf.net
-- ups, as I start the gimp.app now I see that yellow cursor too : 
( Hmm, seems the problem is not solved by Apples updates.
Anyway, I've seen people discussing the issue on the net. Lets try  
google:


A solution is proposed here: http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?

With respect this is my second request.


Well, it took me about 20 seconds to find the solution with google.  
May be you could have done that too after my first hint?

 changing my GIMP browser preference to firefox %s and it works,

So I went back to my account. English is the

So, I changed it to USA. Then I tried Gimp.
Same font problem.
So then I started removing various

For example, I removed ~/.gimp-2.2/.
I removed ~/Library/Application Support/Gimp/.
I copied over the ~/.gimp-2.2 directory from the

Each time I would retry installing and launching

Hi All,

GIMP is crashing on me pretty consistently when I try to rotate an  
image or change perspective.


which Hardware are you running GIMP.app on? PPC or x86? Can you  
reproduce that problem? If so, please tell us how.

I'm running this version on OS X @ x86 without such problems.

I looked into installing 2.2.13 from source, but it needs GTK which  
I read is not production ready yet for Mac.


Of course it is, what do you think is your current GIMP.app using  
instead? It's just, that there are currently two pieces of GTK  
running on OS X - one nativ within Aqua (that one is not ready for  
prime time yet) and on running within X11 (that one is available and  
stable for years now).


Greetings, lexA

P.S: if in doubt open a bug. It might be much better than polluting  
the users list.




Thanks in advance for the help.

With the main menu being named GIMP, the File menus for the image

What do you think?


To be honest - I think that should be changed somehow, but I also  
know that this was discussed at least a dozen times already. Have a  
look into gimps bugzilla - I'm sure you'll find it somewhere in there...

this problem is well known and documented. I talked to mitch about  
this issue in lyon already. There is a bug filed in the gnome  
bugzilla and a description how to work around this issue in the gimp-

incorporate some special logging into the more recent 2.3.x versions  
to hunt this down.


I'd be very happy to give any help I can to solve this, but sorry -

Hi Carol, Roman is still on vacation for a week or so. But why you

i built these docs from a simple text file in hardly no time:
http://www.gimp.org/docs/python/pygimp.html and editing them was
extremely easy (not unlike writing in a wiki).


I'll have a look at it

if the people in charge don't show up to do something soon, i will get

Why would you want to find yourself a ppd for GIMP printing? I just

[Gimp-user] all Filters gone

2006-03-04 Thread Axel Wernicke

Hi list,

finally I got GIMP 2.2.10 compiled on the Intel Mac that arrived last  
week. The whole process of ./configure; make; make install run very  
smooth. No problems at all. Starting the GIMP up works without any  
unexpected messages. Unfortunately when I opened an image I had to  
discover that the whole filters menu contained only three menu items  
for resetting and redoing a filter but no filters or even submenus at  
all. After that I had a look into the preferences to check the path  
for plug-ins as well as a look into that according directory.  
Everything looks good in here, all the filters are there as binaries.


So big question: what can I do to get the filters back?

Any hints are appreciated.

At the risk of asking what is probably THE most obvious question of

I downloaded and installed GimpShop. I'm running Mac OS-X version

install it. However, during the install, I got a message stating  
You cannot install X11 on this volume. Newer Software already  
exists on your computer.


However, using Spotlight to locate any X11 files only found com/ 
apple.x11.plist in my preferences.


Attempting to launch GimpShop on the assumption that if some  
version of X11 was already installed, it should run, produced a  
Failed to start X11 message.




despite you are asking at the completely wrong place (this is neither  
a gimpshop nor a OS X list), you should have a look into / 
Applications/Utilities/X11.app. If it's not there you whether never  
installed it, or trashed it somehow. In any case get your OS X  
install media and reinstall the X11 package. Then try again. If it  
does not work doublecheck with another X11 program like gimp (gimp- 
app.sf.net) and ask your preferred OS X community :)

Is the problem the mounted drive doesn't appear in the Open dialog or
that it does appear and you can't open it?



The mounted drive doesn't appear in the Open dialogue (you say  
dialog, I say dialogue... let's call the whole thing off) and the  
permanent links to the relevant folders (essentially the Work  
folder on the remote server) isn't recognised as a symlink.


so where did you search? The right place would be /Volumes/ 
nameOfTheMountedVolume. If you can't navigate to that place for  
some reason you can enter the path directly to the text field in the  
GIMP open file dialog.


Hope that helps

And I was curious if there is a GIMPwin-users forum, why there is a

Well, you've got the choice. Start a Mac forum, use one of the

This might be true for the dec issue of the english manual but is  
rather a temporarily weakness of the pdf production process ( docbook  
- (la)tex - pdf ) then a general problem. The german version I've  
build a couple of days ago has an index.



I am thinking of preparing my own (which I
will share of course.)


You want to prepare what? An index or a manual? The first one is  
already done in each docbook chapter. (Well, it *might* be that there  
is room for improvements of course :)



Has anyone found an index to this manual
on the site?


uhh - yes - all the html versions have one and as I just wrote all  
the pdf versions *should* have one too!

Sure they are. Feel free to have a closer look to docs.gimp.org and

project is organized.




When you say the manual is undergoing changes on a daily basis
are you referring to the downloadable pdf or just the html
versions? The date on the manual I downloaded was December 28,
2005. I assume it is the latest pdf version.


both - html and pdf versions are more or less automatically build  
from docbook (xml) sources. Since building the html files is much  
more robust to inconsintencies like missing image files etc. they are  
available in more recent versions than the pdf files are. Building  
them is more art then science right now...

indeed the -rpath problem is completely not related to the SSE issue.  
I'm on PPC ( no SSE at all) and have the -rpath issue since GIMP 2.3.6

What is the target program and what does it do? Perhaps there is

On Linux systems IMageMagick will convert almost any format to

you probably got anything from cvs:

compiling from cvs version

If you get the cvs version, there will be no configure script initially. You
have to use autogen.sh instead of configure:

./autogen.sh

you can save images to filenames with the extension *.xcf.gz or

Is there any way that I may set up the GIMP on a multi user Linux

set directories etc.  I would instead like these settings to be  
pulled from defaults that I set myself.


AFAIK the install process just creates the .gimp-2.2 directory in  
the home directory of the user and stores some preferences files in  
there. You could try to make a template .gimp-2.2 directory - one  
which does not have any user dependencies and distribute this into  
the user directories of all users you want to use GIMP without  
installing it.

Hi Pure_Genius (somehow I doubt that this is your real name, but anyway)

I'm not sure if I understood correctly what you want, but you now,  
that you can dock multiple dialogs into one window just by dragging  
them into the sensitive area of the dialog window? This way you can  
group dialogs however you feel comfortable. Have you had a look into  
the related part of the GIMP manual  (http://docs.gimp.org/en/ 
concepts-beginners.html#gimp-concepts-docks) already?

Don't hesitate to ask again in case I didn't hit the point here.

I agree to a certain degree. I now what to do with a b/w image to use

painting something by myself, so I'm not very used in creating  
something completely new by making a path or some strokes to an empty  
canvas :)
I think even without beeing a wizard in making images one can do a  
good job in the documentation team. There are lots of technical and  
management issues to solve.
Btw. since you are obviously one of the wizards, you could have an  
eye on the manual and give us some wizardish advise ?





this time, tiny-fu distort selection was used and i must say, tiny-fu
feels zippier than script-fu.

http://carol.gimp.org/gimp/distorted-selection-mask.xcf, it is  
still in

rgb.  experts agree, indexed images are simply too complicated for the
average user to be expected to work with.  two paths have been  
included

and i strongly suggest that you consider using the paths for your
template.  they work really nicely -- even gimps simple little SVG
files.

I'll consider that.




Hope that was not too much of a puzzle - its late and my english does

wait until you count the years in which your english does not improve.

[Gimp-user] template for sawtooth border wanted

2005-11-26 Thread Axel Wernicke

Hi list,

I'm one of the members of the gimp documentation team and want to ask  
you for a favour. To reduce the size of all the screenshots to the  
clipping that is of relevance I'm in need of a template that I can  
easily  use to cut of the unwanted borders. To make clear that there  
is something cut of from the picture, the border should be look  
similar to a sawtooth - an irregular one - bit hard to describe, but  
I'm pretty sure you know what I mean.



Any gfx wizards out there that want to support the GIMP manual??  
Thats you chance!


Greetings, lexA

Maybe scissors, not sawtooth?


well however you call it, what I mean is a border that looks  like  
you broke a pice of ice - with lots of sharp edges...

i guess i would be the distressed selection here


yeah, I like it! May I ask for another one? The aim of cutting  
screenshots apart is to save space. So I'd prefer the height of the  
tooth around 20px (yours where around 40px) and the width of the  
whole thing should be around 800px. I'd then trying to build an  
template image with four copies (rotatet by 90, 180 and 270 degrees)  
to be able to move them together as a frame around the screenshot  
having exactly the size I need from the screenshot.

Re: [Gimp-user] change ruler from pixels to inches, but not in gimprc

2005-11-16 Thread Axel Wernicke


Am 17.11.2005 um 04:29 schrieb R. Sheng-Chieh Cheng:


GIMP Users

I'm frustrated - I would think there's a way.

I'm trying to change the ruler in the image window from
pixels to inches.  However, I prefer not to change the
file, gimprc, since sometimes I use pixels and sometimes
I use inches.  I clicked everywhere in the image window
(file, edt, select, view, etc + sub-options) and I can't
find the place to change the unit.  Is it there somewhere
or must I change it in gimprc?


Hi, while you did not mention the GIMP version you are working with,  
I can only guess...
... Look to your image window, there is a area at the bottom of the  
window where you can change the zoom level by a drop-down menu. On  
the left side of that is another menu, where you can choose whichever  
unit you want to see the rulers.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [Gimp-user] old picture

Dear Users,
I am a new user to gimp and have a question regarding an old picture.

Welcome in the GIMP community!

It is an old picture of my great-grandfather. The quality of the  
picture is not
so good and his face is not so clear. Is there any way to make this  
picture

better with gimp?
Sure you can enhance the image with GIMP. But to give you an advise  
is pretty difficult without knowing what problems the image has. Is  
there any way you can provide this online at an webpage of your  
choice (please not as attachement to the list)?
In general you can remove noise, add sharpness, restore colors and so  
on.


As I am new to the are of image processing I hope that it is not a  
too simple

question.
No its not - keep asking. By the way please note, that sharpening  
should be the very last step in the chain of enhancements.




Thanks in Advance,
Michael

I forgot something important: have a look at the GIMP tutorial page:  
http://gimp.org/tutorials/index.html#Photo
There are lots of step by step examples which might give you some  
inspiration what you can do with GIMP to enhance your photo.

Yeees, and if it works, Joao makes short tutorial and puts it online

Seriously, I think after we got an almost complete GIMP reference

one from Rikard.
