<0> I am in need of some help/advise. I haven't been able to figure out how to manipulate test such as curving it along circular line, can someone help me?
<0> *text
<1> hi all
<2> looking for the best way to bend text along a curve in gimp 2.2
<3> hi
<2> howdy
<3> is there a way i can set the size of a brush (for example the standard circle, fuzzy) to a arbitrary size?
<3> (without creating a new brush)
<4> has anyone successfully created hdr images in cinepaint? "As soon as at least two images have been loaded, a HDR image can be created at any time by clicking the "HDR" button," according to this: http://freenet-homepage.de/hsbosny/HDR_Tutorial/HDR_Tutorial-en.html
<5> Title: Creation of HDR Images in CinePaint (at freenet-homepage.de)
<4> but there is no "HDR" button
<4> sorry i'm asking in here.. there seems to be no #cinepaint
<6> there is an HDR button
<6> pattern:http://freenet-homepage.de/hsbosny/HDR_Tutorial/scrshot_images.jpg
<6> bottom row of buttons include Init Compute Resonse and HDR
<4> fangarzz, i don't see any such button... here's what my cinepaint toolbars look like: http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/4318/cinepaint2mx.jpg



<4> nothing about HDR
<4> nor "Init Compute Response"
<4> is it possible to access those functions through the menus instead of a button?
<4> though i don't see an HDR option in any of the menus either
<4> maybe this version of cinepaint (0.21.1) is just not compatible with the HDR plugins
<7> how can i make a layer "float" to the right edge of the canvas?
<8> how do i make a layer "float" to the right edge of the canvas?
<6> pattern: i dont see the correct dialogue open
<6> The tool is started in CinePaint via the <Toolbox>-menu "File" -> "New From" -> "Bracketing to HDR".
<6> http://freenet-homepage.de/hsbosny/HDR_Tutorial/scrshot_images.jpg
<6> that dialogue is what will have the button
<6> if you dont have that dialogue open its either because you didnt follow the steps <Toolbox>-menu "File" -> "New From" -> "Bracketing to HDR". or your version just doesnt have the capability
<6> i just installed cinepaint here and it has all the necessary dialogues and buttons
<9> Hi - I can't setup my printer in gimp ... can anybody give me a hint?
<9> In the printer dialogue of gimp, I can't set my model (which otherwise works no problem with CUPS)
<9> How can I instruct GIMP to just send to CUPS?
<10> boodie, are you running ubuntu by chance?
<9> No, debian
<9> Shouldn't be too different
<10> boodie, almost the same so you may have to go into synaptic and look for the printer stuff by searching for "gimp" I believe there are additionla plugins for gimp that deals with printer support
<9> Already installed
<9> gimp-print, and so omn, says in the description that links with CUPS
<10> boodie, mmm ok I don't have printer installed as of yet but let me look in gimp hol don
<10> boodie, I am not going to be much help without a printer here, I ***ume it is enabled through the extended input devices ?
<9> Problem is, to print a scanned image, you need a degree in computer engineering (that's linux for me)
<10> boodie, actually it should be no problem i just haven't really used a printer for gimp ever or photoshop for that matter, I generally just get it printed at a printers
<10> boodie, I understand this can be frustrating
<11> :PP
<11> Iwould like to use my horizontal wheel in the gimp :)
<9> No, the dialogue lets me give the print command as "lp -s" and a destination printer (there is a lot of models but mine). Bogs me I have already set up CUPS, and works fine
<11> well not _mine_
<11> the one on my mouse ^^
<11> use win32, the hardware works, but horizontal scrolling (aka "tilting") has no effect in a gimp image window
<9> When I launch the print, it says that "no destination available"
<11> now, what I would like to know is if this is at all possible with gimp 2.2. in the input device configuration I see that "sidewarts scrolling" is a possible controller binding
<11> sidewards even, I mean left/right
<12> holding Ctrl while scrolling with the vertical wheel will scroll horizontally
<11> PhilH: that's what I did with my old mouse which did not have this builkt in hw
<11> PhilH: this one has a "tiltable" wheel
<11> it works for example in firefox to operate horizontal scrolling
<11> http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-love/2001-May/msg00186.html
<5> Title: [gnome-love] Re: GTK+, horizontal scrolling and mice with two wheels (at mail.gnome.org)
<11> according to this, GTK itself is doing it
<11> kinda. I ***ume it has made it into a version
<12> so something like gEdit wont scroll with the second "wheel" either?
<11> gEdit? for win32? :D
<12> ok, inkscape then
<11> ok, I try :)
<11> nope, doesn't work either 8)
<11> what works is firefox, what doesn't work is gimp and inkscape
<12> is there a special driver installed for the mouse?
<11> yes
<11> it is called "IntelliPoint 5.2 driver"
<12> and this work with anything that has a fairly standard native horizontal scrollbar?
<11> the only thing that I have seen working so far is firefox
<11> by times you'll have to explain to me what "fairly standard native" means ;)
<11> well :) at least everything that worked before now still works ;D
<11> except in gimp 2.3, there, no input device works anymore =:)
<13> how do i change the background to transparent?
<13> is there anyway to change my background to transparent after i have already made it white?



<14> method|: Yes: Add alpha, select background, delete.
<14> That has to be the most frequently asked question in this channel.
<13> see i have this image that i downloaded that is an arrow with a white background, i want to change the white bg to a transparent bg
<13> how do I select the background?
<14> That's an FAQ. You'll figure it out, but start with Select -> By Color.
<14> If there's a complex shape you need to trace and then reverse the selection for to get its background, press 'I'
<13> yeah its a complex shape
<14> s/for to/to/
<13> how do you trace in gimp? sorry im a total newb. try to google for instructions but i cant find anything
<14> Pressing F1 will pull up the built-in help if you have the gimp-help package installed.

<13> kthx
<15> i am having trouble installing gimp 2.2.1 with this error (after running ./configure):The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the exact error that occured. This usually means GLIB is incorrectly installed. configure: error: Test for GLIB failed. See the file 'INSTALL' for help.
<15> someone told me it is trying to use my C source libraries in edgy
<6> what distro?
<15> edgy 6.10
<15> ubuntu
<14> Why not just apt-get install a prebuilt package?
<6> why are you compiling?
<14> If you don't have glibc-devel, why compile the GIMP yourself?
<15> well i didnt see any prebuilt packages
<6> i would have thought gimp would have come with ubuntu
<14> For the GIMP? You probably didn't look closely.
<15> it did, this is a version of gimp that makes it look like photoshop
<6> bleh
<15> lol
<6> why are you making it look like photoshop
<15> because ive been on windows my entire life
<6> you wind up with a mess thats not photoshop or gimp
<15> and i am lazy
<14> If you really *werE* lazy, you wouldn't be trying to build the GIMP from source, which the majority of users never do.
<15> lol
<14> People with little experience building packages are better off with the binary ones--that's why they're there.
<6> epecially after such a lost cause which makes it harder to use the gimp via tutorials
<6> i would think anyways
<15> well i dont do tuts normally
<14> That may explain the difficulties you are having.
<15> there are no binary packages listed on the site
<14> zYe: Use your package manager.
<6> best way to use linux and gimp is to leave the windows world and that whole paradigm in the trash
<6> start fresh
<14> You don't download gimp-ubuntu.exe from gimp.org to install it.
<13> hey ardonik, i used the continuous selection tool to do this: http://img444.imageshack.us/my.php?image=arrowsnap2wd.jpg
<5> Title: ImageShack - Hosting :: arrowsnap2wd.jpg (at img444.imageshack.us)
<14> You tell your package manager, "give me the GIMP" and it finishes a couple of minutes later.
<13> is that what i want?
<13> seems weird
<14> method|: Without even looking at the image, I can tell you right off that I cannot answer that question for you.
<6> stop fighting experience trying to make it into something windows like and embrace what it is
<13> well it doesnt look like it's selecting the right thing if I wanna change the bg transparency
<6> you will find it much smoother after a short while
<6> linux is not windows and gimp is not photoshop
<15> ok
<15> so are you also against the wine system?
<6> not really
<6> just dont need it
<6> i find it more of a curiosity then a necessity
<6> i have used it maybe twice
<6> in i dont now how long
<15> well is there any other way to play games developed for windows?
<14> method|: that selection doesn't look right. Just select by color.
<14> The color is white.
<14> Exclude the middle and you're done; you could use Colors -> Color to alpha to clean up.
<6> i dont use linux for gaming myself
<6> i have it set up for image and html editing
<14> I do.
<6> dual monitors at high resolution
<14> http://www.wesnoth.org, neverball, UQM, crack attack....
<13> Ardonik: selecting by color doesnt seem to be working either. when i hit shift+o it just selects the whole image
<14> Select -> By color, click on a color. You'll get it eventually.
<15> ah
