Re: [Gimp-user] Isolating an image

2014-10-20 Thread Gunold Brunbauer
I just made a test with your picture using MAGIX Pro X6. In the 
attachment you see a single frame of my test-video. As you can see, 
there is no problem with your image. So I can support what Steve Kinney 
wrote: your solution will be in the program which you are using to make 
the video.

My first guess would be that the video format these are being
imported to do not support transparency, or, the software used for
the purpose does not support transparency.  Making the dialog
balloon is only half the process; I suspect your solution will be
in the other half.

Actually, i was a stupid suggestion. You can I see p your text and bubble
on separate layers in your original XCF document. But make sure the
background layer has alpha channel before you renve anything from it, and
do export to PNG.

Your original image should be a single layer document with alpha channel
added to that layer. Right-click on the layer's name in the layers dialog
and see of "Add alpha" command is available. If it isn't, you are already
good to go.

Then, if you see what I suppose you see, and that is a bubble layer on top
of a checkboard pattern, you need to xport this document as PNG to oreserve
the alpha channel.

Then use this PNG file in your production.

My first guess would be that the video format these are being
