I'm not sure whether GIMP's solution will be adjustment layers but
I am curious.
For now you can use layers and layer masks to work non-destructively.

What exactly do you mean with non-permanent filters in Photoshop?
Do you mean the Smart filters?

Yeah the term they use for non permanent and adjustable filters issmart
filters..  you are right.
I wasn´t sure about the exact word and don´t have Photoshop installed on this
box ;)

It is important and we're working on it. Look out for GEGL.
See also our [roadmap] and the [GEGL porting matrix].
In GIMP you can group layers with Layer groups. Unfortunately they
don't have masks, but this is a work in progress (see the first
item on the roadmap).


Kind regards,

Sven

[Gimp-user] transition photoshop to gimp

2014-03-17 Thread crumpy_panda
Hi, 

The question isn't really if the workflow is nondestructive,
but rather, to what extent. In GIMP you can paint nondestructively by
using a new transparent layer. In photoshop you can do that and on top
of that use layer effects/filters nondestructively. That is, afaik,
not
currently possible in GIMP. 

However, the big project the developers
are working on right now is transitioning GIMP to a new core, called
GEGL. With that, it should be possible to retroactively change pretty
much anything you have done to the image, even far more than is
possible
with photoshop right now. But, as I said, it is a big project and we
don't now when it will be done/released.

there a hidden option for a complete non destructive worklfow ? like
adjustment layers and non permanent filter in photoshop ?
important is a non destructive workflow for the developers ? are they
aware
implemented better ?
child.. why?

;D im currently exploring poetry as a .. way to express myself .. and am sorry
if my text isnt conforming to standards someone expects or finds easier to
read..

i smiled at your funny reply.. ;) greetings

the new planned core sounds interesting.. especially with the possibility to
revert all manipulation done to the source material..

ty for your reply

[Gimp-user] GIMP -2.8.10 Brushes

2014-03-17 Thread Randhir Phagura
Ofnuts wrote 16 Mar:

Technically, the script creates an entry in the menu of the Brushes
dialog, but it's not really designed to be used from a menu.

What you do is:

1) check that the script is installed: HelpPlugin browser and search
native, this should show Brush size to native

2) EditKeyboard shortcuts,  search native and assign a keyboard
shortcut.

Then when you want the current brush at its native size, just hit the
key you defined.

Thanks Ofnuts,

I did what your instructions expressed and these worked very well with the
current native sizes of brushes. But my problem is how to alter the
'native' sizes to what I wish for each brush.

Idea on that would be most helpful.

Regards,

Randhir Phagura

[Gimp-user] 3 programs have error in 2.8.10

2014-03-17 Thread luis_s_s
Hello,

I have installed Gimp 2.8.10 in my computer with Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bits.

When I start Gimp the programs web-page.exe, help-browser.exe and
file-pdf-load.exe give the error the procedure entry point
__gxx-personality_seh0 could not be located in dynamic link library c:\Program
files\Gimp 2\bin\icui18n51.dll

icui18n51.dll is a dll from International Components for Unicode and I think it
was compiled with a different version of the mingw C++ compiler that the one I
have in my computer. Actually I have MINGW for 32 bits and 64 bits installed in
my computer but I do not know in which library the dll is looking for the entry
point.

Does anyone know which library and for which version (gcc is now 4.8.1) is
icui18n51.dll using?, Is this library in the Gimp files?, perhaps due to my path
Gimp starts looking for in other place.

Thank you for your help.

The interesting part is why those files, that are supposed to have come with 
GIMP, don't match.

Did you ever copy files around manually, for example when installing additional 
plug-ins? 
Did you ever install any third-party plug-ins?

Re: [Gimp-user] 3 programs have error in 2.8.10

2014-03-17 Thread Dana Huggard
I was having the exact same thing happen. Even after trying a
uninstall/reinstall.
What solved it was after an uninstall, go to look in the programs folder
and manually remove the remaining gimp directory and files. I also renamed
the .gimp folder in the user profile directory because it contains some
additions that I want to put back after.  I believe it was as Michael S.
suggests, that there was leftovers from third-party plugins that the
uninstall does not remove.
