Re: [Gimp-user] remove dust problems
Thank you so much for your help. I had some serious problems with my PC and my health so have only just got a chance to do this, it worked really well on the 1 photo I have tried so far http://www.flickr.com/photos/14586608@N08/8625118958/in/photostream http://www.flickr.com/photos/14586608@N08/8625118866/in/photostream --- On Fri, 21/9/12, David Holland davholla2...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: From: David Holland davholla2...@yahoo.co.uk Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] remove dust problems To: gimp-user-list@gnome.org, Nik Omul nik-o...@yandex.ru Date: Friday, 21 September, 2012, 20:56 That looks amazing thanks a lot, I will try and let you know how I get on.(I am flying tonight so it might not be for some time). --- On Fri, 21/9/12, Nik Omul nik-o...@yandex.ru wrote: From: Nik Omul nik-o...@yandex.ru Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] remove dust problems To: gimp-user-list@gnome.org Date: Friday, 21 September, 2012, 5:59 David Holland wrote Hi All, I tried to remove a dust spot using resynthesize but I can still see where it was, although it looks a lot better.I was using this tutorial. http://dodonov.net/blog/2009/12/29/cleaning-dust-on-photos-or-in-gimp-we-trust/ Any ideas?Here is the original http://www.flickr.com/photos/14586608@N08/8007061865/in/photostreamthe modifiedhttp://www.flickr.com/photos/14586608@N08/8007047321/in/photostream Thanks a lot in advance ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@ https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list Hi, David.

Hi Elmer, your right in the point that the Healing tool has just one step while the other way as five. It's a very easy and smart way, but doesn't offer a possibility to edit or revert the changes later at any arbitrary time. Many roads lead to Rome and I described the nondestructive one. It has the benefit of being able to edit or revert the work later (see steps 4 and 5), even after having gone a few steps further in the meantime. As you stated correctly, it has more steps and thus looks more complicated. So, David now knows three methods (the Healing tool, the nondestructive way and content-aware fill) and it's up to him to prefer one or to decide for each scenario. Hopefully GIMP will combine the power of nondestructive editing with the ease of using just a single tool one day. With respect to the roadmap it's yet a future milestone, but the first steps are currently being gone with the GEGL port.
