Message: 5 Date: Fri, 12 May 2006 13:18:44 -0500 From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is there anyway to draw a line in gimp and put arrows at the end of the line. Photoshop's line tool can apparently do this with ease...
1) Select Brush tool with the desired brush size. 2) Click with the brush tool somewhere on the canvas. That will, for example make the start of the line. 3) With SHIFT pressed, click with the brush tool somewhere else where you want the arrow line to end. This will draw a straight line with your brush type. Release the SHIFT key then. 4) Now draw the arrow-head (two tiny lines jutting out from one end of the line) the same way. You can draw a filled arrow-head the same way - just draw one more tiny line joining the two other tiny lines going angularly outwards from the end of the main line and then FILL it with the bucket tool with the color you used to draw the arrow. Now, for example, if you do it on a flat-color background then you can easily select it and convert it to path so that you can shape it to your liking. OR, save it as a brush. Hope that sounds easy. -- Best, Asif _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
