On Monday 28 September 2009 02:59:17 pm Jude T. wrote: Tools Transformation Rotate this should be the first step in straightening out an image with distorted perspective, as you get when you don't hold the camera straight. after getting _something_ straight, either the middle of the image, or an important part somewhere else, you'll have to adjust the perspective. either choose tools - transform tools - perspective, or the perspective tool from the toolbox. you'll have to play around a little to find the ideal perspective shift. if you change the perspective too much, the photo will look weired. after adjusting the perspective you can undo redo, and repeat the process if necessary. online manual links: http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-tool-rotate.html http://docs.gimp.org/2.6/en/gimp-tool-perspective.html i didn't see a tutorial dealing with this subject, but you'll find lots of helpful information in there: http://gimp.org/tutorials/ -- phani. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Jude For all those tools mentioned in the other posts, check out the Corrective mode, preferrably with the transformation preview set to only Grid. With that, it's just fun to correct skewed photographs.

Re: [Gimp-user] adjusting a horizon
Hello Phani, check out the Corrective mode please excuse my ignorance, but where do i find this mode? http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-tools-transform.html#gimp-tool-transform - Tool Options - Direction You find this setting (and all other tool related options) in the tool options dialog, which is a dock that is usually just below the tool dialog itself. If you can't find it, I suggest the chapters on docks dialogs in the GIMP help pages. I hope you enjoy it, Daniel signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
