Re: [Gimp-user] GimpShop
I tried it and didn't see any changes to the interface. GimpShop only rearranges the menu structure to emulate Photoshop's a little closer. It's really meant for a PS user who is transitioning to the Gimp. If you're familar w/the Gimp, there's no need to use it (correct me if I'm wrong). Eric P.

[Gimp-user] Algebra help w/script
(Stop reading now - This is your only warning) Ok, I'm struggling on some algebra here for a Script-fu plug-in I'm working on. The plug-in is an automation of this rounded corners tutorial: http://gug.sunsite.dk/tutorials/rounded-corners Essentially, this tutorial blurs a black and white image w/90 degree corners, and then applies levels to bring the blurred edges back to a tight curved edge (i.e., the technique rounds all corners in a black/white image). The level tool's black input slider and the white input slider must adjust in relation to the blur radius, and that's where I'm stuck. The tutorial uses levels 119 (black slider) and 135 (white slider), which works fine for a blur radius of 20px. However, to use a different blur radius (to achieve greater/lesser rounding of corners), the black and white input sliders must adjust appropriately. For example, if I do a blur radius of only 10px, 111 (black) and 142 (white) give the desired result (i.e., a tight rounded corner with all excess blur removed). Now I did some manual sampling of different blur radius to see if I could find a relation between the blur radius and the black/white slider settings. My results make what looks like a y=1/x^2 type graph, but it needs a little tweaking. Here's my data. Radius Black White diff (White - Black) 0 0 255 255 2 70 183 113 4 93 160 67 6102 151 49 8108 145 37 10 111 142 31 12 114 139 25 14 115 138 23 16 117 136 19 18 118 135 17 20 119 134 15 22 119 134 15 24 120 133 13 26 120 133 13 28 121 132 11 30 121 132 11 32 121 132 11 34 122 131 9 36 122 131 9 38 122 131 9 40 122 131 9 42 123 130 7 44 123 130 7 46 123 130 7 48 123 130 7 50 123 130 7 52 123 130 7 54 123 130 7 56 124 129 5 58 124 129 5 60 124 129 5 62 124 129 5 64 124 129 5 66 124 129 5 68 124 129 5 70 124 129 5 72 124 129 5 74 124 129 5 76 124 129 5 78 124 129 5 80 124 129 5 82 125 129 4 84 125 129 4 86 125 128 3 88 125 128 3 90 125 128 3 I've made a spreadsheet to graph this data (i.e., add to the confusion). http://epierce.freeshell.org/gimp/selection_rounded_stats.gnumeric Now if I can just figure out the relationship (i.e., equation) between the radius (1st column) and the diff (4th column), that should be all I need to determine what the black/white slider settings should be for all cases. My best stab is 'diff=(1/radius^2)*255*radius'. But this produces slightly skewed results. Anyway, thanks for reading!

Re: [Gimp-user] remove background
Well, you've got your work cut out for you on the frizzy hair guys, but I've had some success using Filters->Colors->Decompose for frizzy haired individuals. Go with RGB separation. I then pick the layer with the best contrast between the hair and the background and massage that into a mask. The rest of the person can be cut out fairly cleanly using paths (and then path to selection once path is created). Once again, stick this into your mask. On non-frizzy haired individuals (ex. M4110016.JPG), I'd go paths all the way. Obviously, I'm leaving out a lot of the step details, but let us know if/where you get stuck if you need more explanation.

Re: [Gimp-user] Trouble with layers from psd
One of the admins at my work purportedly uses Macormedia's Fireworks for raster image editing. He told me that the default file format is png! I called him a bold faced lier, but he swears up and down that png is the default format. I asked him about layers, and he said the pngs that Fireworks saves can DO LAYERS. I haven't seen it firsthand... is there any truth to this!? And getting back to an earlier debate (file format 'lock-in' / divide and conquer), I've read somewhere that MS Word stole the word processing scene back in the day by: 1) implementing a damn near perfect WordPerfect (word pro leader at the time?) import filter but (in)conveniently lacked any WordPerfect output filter. 2) offering Word inexpensively For what it's worth, I think the Gimp would excel and enlighten if it had the best psd import AND export filter as possible. But I've learned to live with the current state of the psd filter at work. I use Gimp for 95% of my work (web devel/print work), and the main print guy uses PS for everything. The times when our work overlaps, I can conveniently save to psd for him from the Gimp if layers are an issue, and that has been a decent working solution for the 2+ years I've been at my current employment. Implementing the import/export of a dynamic text layer from psd would be a nice addition though. Eric P. On Wed, Feb 09, 2005 at 09:10:14PM -0200, Joao S. O.

Your gift of time and talent are immeasurable, and whole heartedly appreciated!

I use Gimp everyday at work (web devel/print work) and have PS installed, but I find I rarely need to use it as Gimp is so damn able.

Re: [Gimp-user] image scale (2.2) - missing print size
So you'll also be moving Resolution from Scale Image, correct? For what it's worth, I did a good 2 minutes of research on this topic to see what the other softies are doing for a "Print Size" type dialog. Here: http://epierce.freeshell.org/gimp/print_size_research_results.php I see good arguements for two 'print size/resolution' location ideas. #1 Returning it as it was in <=2.0 because... - Everybody else has 'pixel scaling' and 'print size' in the same dialog, - People are accustomed to Gimp also having these entries together as they've been that way a long time - one less menu entry = one less menu entry to wade through #2 Putting it into its own menu entry (Sven's idea below) because... - Having 'Print Size/resolution' settings in w/Interpolation settings really doesn't make sense - Gimp is NOT about what everybody else is doing - fock 'em That said, I vote for idea #2, and I vote for "Print Size" for the vernacular.

[Gimp-user] image scale (2.2) - missing print size
Will the 'print size width/height' fields be returning to the Scale Image dialog? Forgive me if I've misinterpreted the intentions of the new Scale Image dialog (and let me know if I have), but after reading bug #151022, I believe the removal of the 'Print size Width/Height' fields unnesessarily adds an extra step for people in the print industry (me) who rely on changing an image to a specific print size w/o any harm to the pixels. The previous Scale Image dialog worked perfectly for "resizing" images for print. Now, with the 2.2pre1 image scale, if I have an image that is 5" x 5" / 150 ppi (750 px by 750 px) and I need to (non-destructively) change the print size to 4" x 4", the only way to do this with the new dialog is to pull out a calculator. I must divide 750 (px) by 4 (inches) to determine the new print resolution (which comes to 187.5 ppi), and enter this value in for the x/y resolution. With the older dialog, since all I'm concerned with is changing the print image size to 4" x 4", I had a dedicated field ('Print size Width/Height') to simply enter that info into. I didn't have to worry about the resolution as it calculated automatically thus preserving (i.e., not changing) the image pixel size. Also, before anyone suggests this, I did try changing the image size units to inches and then change the size that way, but it becomes a destructive scale. Personally, I will continue happily using the Gimp regardless if this gets fixed or not, but I do think people coming from a print background who are new to the Gimp will be confused by this (i.e., having to manually calculate the resolution to change the print size).

[Gimp-user] Dependency (GTK/Glib) compile probs
This is probably insanely simple. I'm trying to compile 2.1.5, so I had to update glib (2.4.6) on my system which I did with '--enable-shared' config flag. All went well. Then, gtk 2.4.9 configured (with --enable-shared) fine, but during 'make' it exists out looking for /opt/gnome/lib/libgobject-2.0.la which glib placed here: /usr/local/lib/libgobject-2.0.la What config option do I need to tell gtk where libgobject-2.0.la is now? I know this is really a question for GTK's mailing list, but I don't feel like budging from the cozy comform of the gimp list. Any help appreciated!

[Gimp-user] PS layer mode read incorectly in Gimp
So I'm loading this psd file in Gimp that my co-worker did, and I notice it looks funny because the top layer mode was interpreted wrong by the Gimp. Here's the image. http://epierce.freeshell.org/bugzilla/soft_light.psd The top layer in this image is 'Soft Light' when loaded in Photoshop, but comes up 'Addition' under Gimp 2.0.4. Of course, I can manually switch it to 'Soft Light' and it looks like what my co-worker probably intended. I notice this behavior under Gimp 2.0.4 (Win/Lin). Under Gimp 2.1.4 (Linux) it comes up as 'Overlay'. It look alright as 'Overlay', but it still probably should be 'Soft Light'. Any ideas any one? Should I bug report it?

Re: [Gimp-user] Photoshop magic background eraser
Actually, it'd be nice if Gimp could pick up some of the properties of PS's erase background tool. Adding 'Tolerance' to 'color to alpha' would be good start; and maybe that's all that's really necessary for this function. How does everybody else remove backgrounds? The other approaches I take are: 1. decomposing the image and a making mask from the layer with the best separation 2. using the path tool to break out a region and (once again) make a mask Any techniques I'm missing?

Re: [Gimp-user] Windows compilation of RawPhoto 0.7
Hi, First off, thanks for writing this plug-in. There's some cool RAW options in the plugin that I was never knew about when converting RAW images. Basically, it works for me on Win2000 Pro at work w/the static version of your plugin. I need to try the dynamic one again. I didn't have dcraw installed at the time I tried the dynamically linked binary (didn't know I needed dcraw installed - maybe add that to your install instructions and where to copy the dcraw binary in Windows?) Two things: 1. Should the top 5 check boxes be radio buttons so only one can be selected? I selected all for shits 'n giggles and saw several conflicting flags being passed to dcraw. 2. It seems your plugin is trying to open any file that Gimp tries to open regardless of extension. Here's a screen: http://epierce.freeshell.org/multimedia/dcraw.png On the whole, I'm pleased to be using your plugin/dcraw. Now I can removed the hundreds of megabytes of software that accompanied our camera (Canon G5). Thanks and I'll report back again, Eric P. On Sun, Aug 29, 2004 at 06:00:36PM -0400, Matthew H.

I was trying to update the ps-menurc file (for Photoshop key shortcuts in Gimp) for 2.1.1, and a few entries seem to be missing from the menurc file.

Re: [Gimp-user] Re: Hi-Res Screen Captures
Exactly. What you're after isn't possible. Screen shots are pixelated in print. To get your 300dpi, scale the image, but use 'None' for interpolation type. That'll maintain the pixely look, but it won't be some smeared, blurry looking screenshot. It'll be crisp. The only way you'd get what you want is if all of Gimp's icons were vector based (then you could scale to your hearts delight.)

Re: [Gimp-user] Clipping Path
Joao, Clipping Paths are a new concept to me too. First let me explain a tad... For page layout work, at work we use (don't laugh) PageMaker. Me and the other guy recently learned that we could import raster images w/transparency and actually have it display properly in PageMaker. We also learned that the tif must have a clipping path. Basically, it's a path with a special designation as a 'clipping path' and everything inside the path will show, and everything outside the clipping path is transparent. There's a little rivalry at work because my colleage uses Photoshop while I use The Gimp. As it would be, PS could do a clipping path, but I couldn't see that Gimp could. In PS, you bring up the context menu with the paths menu up and designate which path will be the 'clipping path'. That's it. I don't know about the internals of the tif file, or if it's even a recognized spec in tif. I can throw up an image somewhere if anyone is curious to check it out. At work I'd like us both to drop Windows all together and go with Scribus/Gimp, but that might not happen anytime soon.

[Gimp-user] tif file w/multiple pages
I'm having some problems with the new support for multipage tifs. First, I get the following errors. tif: Unknown field with tag 33949 (0x849d) encountered And these two errors repeat for the nubmer of pages in the tif. tif: Unknown field with tag 33950 (0x849e) encountered tif: Unknown field with tag 33951 (0x849f) encountered The tif image opens, and there is a layer for each page, but the height of the image is scaled 50% (but the width is fine). I'm basically making my comparisons with Microsofts Imaging because that's the only program that I know that properly opens multipage tifs. Also, my multipage tifs are created whenever someone faxes me. They fax me and I receive an e-mail with a tif attached. Is Andrey Kiselev on this list? Maybe I could send him one of my tifs for examination (since he implemented this feature in The Gimp). Thanks for reading... I appreciate any suggestions.

Re: [Gimp-user] Gimp2.0pre
Without thinking all that hard about the details of your problem, why don't you just compile gimp from source? Then you'll find out what you really need to compile/install. Tip: use 'checkinstall' instead of 'make install'. It'll do a 'make install' for you and make custom RPMs of anything your installing. Then you can cleanly remove programs down the road and delete the bloated directory where you compile any given program. Just my 2 bits.

Re: [Gimp-user] ESC for cancel in full-screen mode
With Gimp 1.3.x, open up an image and hit F11. It'll toggle full-screen mode. You can also add as many extra goodies (like rulers, status bar, etc.) as you want, or run it w/o anything except the image. Really nice and configurable (check preferences for default full-screen mode settings).

[Gimp-user] ESC for cancel in full-screen mode
I use full-screen mode a lot... and love it. However, would you consider removing ESC as a binding to pop you out of full-screen mode? I think F11 is a sufficient (and common) toggle for full-screen on/off. I always use ESC to cancel out of dialogs (Curves dialog, Levels dialog, etc.) But in full-screen mode, ESC cancels the dialog _and_ takes me out of full-screen mode. Or if I use a mnemonic to pull down a menu while if full-screen mode, I cannot cancel out of the menu without hitting ESC. Again that takes me out of full-screen mode as well. What does anyone else think? Just my 2 bits. Eric Pierce ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Re: Dynamic Shortcuts - was Re: [Gimp-user] GIMP at COMDEX
> You are a Gimp 'power user' and you are probably a good keyboard player, Basically, there are people who utilize mnemonic use and there are those who don't. It's nothing to do with the Gimp. > ALT-L,C,C sounds not like easy Yeah, that does look a little rough out of context. However, as you type 'ALT-L,C,C' you will think 'Alt-L(evels)-C(olors)-C(urves)' as you watch the menus pop by. After a while, mnemonic combinations becomes an unconscious flick of the wrist as you become particularily comfortable with them. And there's a logic to it - a logic in how you 'locate' any given menu item within the menu tree. People who don't use mnemonics remind me of people who never learned to touch type. They get the job done, but it's inefficient as hell. Same goes for those who don't use mnemonics - once your hand leaves the keyboard to grab for the mouse, you lose your momentum. Granted you could argue that the Gimp is mouse intensive. And obviously there are some things you simply must use the mouse for, but some people would be surprised just how much (and how quickly) you can get work done in the Gimp by extreme keyboard utilization. (wow... that could be a new X Game..) > Then three letters > to memorize for each function to call it's not easy. I wouldn't recommend using mnemonics for each function either. I'd keyboard shortcut as much as possible. The few stragglers are where mnemonics step in to save the day. If you use keyboard shortcuts extensively, then the rest of the menu functions you need to get to can be handled competently by mnemonics. Shit, did I say too much?

Re: [Gimp-user] pixelate question
JB, Hmm... that didn't seem to work. Maybe I screwed something up. Was that supposed to gradually pixelate each layer more than the next? I'm using Gimp-win (I'm at work). Each layer was equally pixelized the same amount. Anyway, I'm not working on several layers. Just one layer - a photo of people. I want it to gradually (from right to left) go from no pixelation to slight pixelation, and then larger and larger pixelation so there would be nice chunky squares on the left side.

[Gimp-user] Bugs?
I'm going to list a few minor glitches I've noticed with recent builds of the Gimp (1.3.17-1.3.22), and I hope a few other people would either verify or counter these items before I fill out any bug reports. All of these issues in Gimp for Linux and Windows (except where noted). #1 If I have 2 or more linked layers and I use the move tool to try to move all the layers (with mouse or arrow keys), only the currently selected layer moves as opposed to all the linked layers. In Gimp 1.2.x, all linked layers move together when moved. #2 In Gimp 1.2.x, an asterisk appears next to the file name in the title bar when changes have been made to an image. I don't see an asterisk in 1.3. Not a real biggie. Was it left out on purpose? Or am I missing a preference setting somewhere? #3 With an image open, do View->Info Window. Don't close the Info Window. Now click on the image to give it focus and do View->Info Window again. The Info Window doesn't raise above the image. Shouldn't it come to the top and receive focus? #4 This next one I've only seen on 1.3.22 under Windows. In fullscreen mode, I see no indication of a selected area (ie., no marching ants) when I make a selection. Note: I did pump up the ant marching speed to 75. I'll have to reset that and see what happens tomorrow at work. #5 I've noticed some artifacts when doing work at high zoom levels. To replicate this, draw a little something (most anything will work), now zoom in on an area. Next select an area, copy it and move it around with the arrow keys. Here's what I got just now: http://epierce.freeshell.org/images/no_5.png See all the 1 pixel high artifacts that were left behind as I moved the image up to the left and right? It seems this only works if your zoom ratio becomes some exotic ratio like 167:83 as opposed to 1:4 or 4:1. Could this be related to Bug 124073 (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124073)? That's it. Anyway, I don't mean to be nitpicky or anything. I just thought this is a good time to address some of these potential bugs since we're coming upon 2.0. Thanks for reading!

[Gimp-user] Exotic zoom ratios in 1.3.*
I notice that when I use the zoom tool, I get really exotic zoom ratios like 67:189 for example(see View>Zoom). And that's fine, but if i then try to use the zoom keyboard shortcut, it zooms in really small increments. Is this an intended effect? Any way to get it to zoom in larger increments?

[Gimp-user] Mneumonics fighting dynamic shortcuts on 1.3.20
I think I found a little problem with assigning shortcuts on 1.3.20. Try this: On an image window, click the "View" drop down menu. Now place the cursor over an item - I did "Shrink Wrap". Now I type "f" to assign it as a shortcut key to "Shrink Wrap", but before the shortcut saves, the "Display Filters" windows (which has "f" as a mneumonic) comes up, and the keyboard shortcut is never assigned. I can edit the 'menurc' file and set it there, but I'd venture a guess that this won't work for any other similar situations (could be quite a few). Otherwise, 1.3.20 rocks my world.

I've wondered for years if there's any way to perfectly strip an image from a solid colored background while maintaining any alpha channel info. Take this image for instance. http://epierce.freeshell.org/temp/index.html The background is 100% white. But there's some definate blending going on with the image border and with the image shadow. I played a bit with a layer of white using the different layer modes thinking one of them might cancel out the white effectively stripping out only the white, but to no avail.
