GIMP :: Ability To Rotate View Without Rotating Image Itself
Aug 25, 2013
I've noticed that in Paint Tool SAI (which I really wish I could buy but I have no money) has two things I wish GIMP could do.
1: SAI has an ability to rotate the view without rotating the image itself.(rotating a graphics tablet to comfortably get the pen stroke right.) Is there any way this could be implemented into a new update of GIMP?
2: SAI has really good pressure sensitivity and natural *smooth* pressure strokes. I've kinda noticed GIMP is geared more towards Mouse/Touch pad art creation; is there any way to get pressure sensitivity into the program?
I'm afraid to use GIMP anymore because the whole program takes about 20 minutes to load, from clicking the application icon on my desktop. Once it's up though, it functions well. Even after I close it out, and end up clicking the application icon again, it takes another 20 minutes to load up.

I have been using gimp now for about 2 months and have just upgraded my OS to Mavericks and upgraded Gimp to 2.8.8.
Upon doing this I seem to have lost the ability to copy/cut an image or part thereof from one open image into another... Example:
I have an image window open with a picture a car and I have an image window open with a race track back ground.
I want to copy the car from image 1 into image 2, but for some reason I cannot do this function anymore. When attempting it, once the item is copies to the clipboard and I then swap to the second image, when I paste as a new layer it pastes the clipboard from that image and not the image from the first window...

Did 2.8 remove the ability to drag and copy a layer from one image to another? This does not work when I try opening more than one image and dragging a layer between the two images by switching between tabs.
Is there some default box I need to uncheck or some new way to do this?

I am looking for a way to make front view of a tire look like it's rotating ... i.e. the tread is moving. I have tried moving the tread, but that didn't look right.
I have seen it done but can't recreate it. I have attached an example .

When I rotate a landscape image 90 degrees to portrait format the top and bottom of the image gets cut off. How do I prevent that and be able to view the whole image?

When I need to rotate an image a few degrees a grid is displayed over the image, as a guide. However, the grid also rotates, making it a somewhat useless feature.

Is there a way to take an image, and make an animation of it rotating 360 degrees?
I've never looked into batch processing with GIMP, but I would be willing to. This is for a video game sprite.

Is there any way to just rotate a rectangular image? I have often scanned in something that's not square, it's often a brochure that's taller than it is wide. But when I scanned it, I had turn it sideways to get the whole thing visible to the scanner. So it scans completely, but now I have an image of it that's not "up is up"-- I have "up is right" or "up is left." But now I have to do all this junkbutter: 1) Look at the canvas size, 2) make the width & height equal to the larger of the two, 3) use the Rotate tool to turn the image 90 degrees, then 4) do some magic to move the image to start at the upper-left, and 5) crop it back down to get rid of the blank space on the bottom. YUCKY! Is there some magic tool I haven't found yet that will rotate, move and crop all in one step? I just want to turn the entire image on it's side without any other fuss. Is that possible somehow? I have to assume it is, but I sure couldn't find it...

I can find image rotate easily enough. But I can't find any way I can rotate it a few degrees. I frequently scan stuff in and it frequently needs 1 degree or such to straighten it up. I used to do that with Paint Shop Pro. Surely Gimp has the same functionality?

I am looking for a way to rotate a image, but not the normal clockwise rotation, rather a spin rotation. I have tried the the transform tool with slight success . imagine looking at a front view of a wheel & tire that needs turned slightly.

Is there a way in gimp to rotate a 2D image (e.g. BMW%20M3%20-%202002%20-%2003.jpg) about the Y Axis? I tried GMIC but that rotates the layer in 3D. I would like to create a view of the front of the car or any any in between.

When Rotating or Resizing an image I have recently run into an issue. This is new behavior so I think I either have something set incorrectly, or it came in with a recent re-install.
When Rotating or Resizing, and setting Clipping to Adjust, it always Crops the image.
In other words: If I were to attempt to stretch an image bigger than 1000x1000 to say 1500x1500 it appears to do all the correct calculations, and does stretch the image, but anything outside the original 1000x1000 disappears.
Likewise if I were to attempt to rotate an image that were say, 1000x1500, 90°, I would end up with a rotated image 1000x1000 in size, and transparent/background for the balance of the original 1000x1500 sized image.
I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling (it remembered all my settings, so I don't know how much good this might have done), setting the Clipping option to Clip, then Crop and back to Adjust again (also with no result).

I'm trying to have some advanced positioning - I don't know if this can be done using dynamic blocks. Start with some basic geometry - let's say a triangle - /. Now, I can add a rotate parameter & action that will let me spin that as I wish.
Next - add a couple attributes. I have a pair of attributes, separated by a text, aligned as "A1.A2" A1 is right-justified, and A2 is left-justified, so when edited they remain in the form "A1.A2" regardless of length. I can now add a point parameter, combined with a move action, that will let me reposition these three entities freely.
My question - can I have the rotate action trigger a move, such that the text repositions to a defined location without changing orientation (DON'T rotate the text!)?
So if I start with (leading . used for positioning in this forum text box):. A1.A2
I want to rotate it to: A1.A2
While I'd love to have it totally self-adjust, I mainly need it to handle 45-degree increments of rotation.Is there a way of expressing this using dynamic blocks using action and/or constraints? Or would this require a lisp construct?

Moments ago my crosshairs in the model space decided to rotate. I tried to undo, but apparently the damage is done.
I came across a thread on another website about trying UCS, world & plan etc which I tried.
While this did rotate my crosshairs to be straight and normal again, it rotated all of my drawings I have numerous sections on the page and unfortunately they all became rotated.
Is there a way to rotate the crosshairs and not change my drawing?

Completely unlike the way Illustrator worked in previous versions, when I rotate a shape (say a square) that has a gradient in it, the gradient does not rotate with the object. For example if it is a black to white gradient and initially the black is at the bottom of the square, if I rotate the square instead of the gradient moving to the top, it stays at bottom. Same thing if its rotated to other rotations, 45 degrees moves the black to a corner etc. I can't find this anywhere, is it a preference? I've had 2 installs of Illustrator now on 2 clean Windows 7 installs and its still the same. A very frustrating workflow being that I am an animator, I don't want to have to manually change a gradient everytime I do another frame.

I like to think of myself as pretty competent in AutoCAD but I can't figure this one out for the life of me...
I hope I can explain this clearly: When I rotate an object using grips, the object is not shown spinning in real time. I select the object, pick the object's grip, hit <Enter> <Enter> to go into the rotate command and the object will rotate maybe 45^ or so and freeze (visually).
If I use the command line "Rotate" command, the selected object(s) spin in real time or if I use grips to rotate but then use an object snap, it begins to spin in real time for some reason.
I would like to use grips to rotate my objects and be able to see them rotate (like I used to in previous releases).
I have ACAD Civil 3D 2010.

Adobe illustrator CS5 on Mac OS X 10.7.4.
I used to be able to do something like effect->3d-> revolve, then go to the actions panel and bring up the 3D revolve, click on it and edit it again. Now, when I open the actions panel the simple 3d revolve is replace with a long long list of actions of course I can't bring up the 3d revolve effect and edit it.
I have removed all of the Illustrator prefs in my library file; but, it still does it.

I have lost the ability to see my layers. I created an image and when I open it, I can see by the text displayed at the top of the image that it has five layers. However, when I click "Open the Layers Dialog", the five layers don't show. Perhaps I've locked it somehow? It was saved as a .xcf. Am very new to GIMP.

I just started to use Gimp a few days ago. I am trying to duplicate an image side by side, then rotate the one image....just for learning purposes. However the new box (that should have my duplicate image) Is just a blank outline of the rectangle box. I watched a video over and over trying to get this, and I just do not see any steps I am missing, yet on the video it turns out perfect. I am normally pretty good with computers, but evidently not with Gimp.
Here is the Path:
file> open>select and open photo>rectangle tool>outline photo>copy>paste>open new layer>select new pasted layer.
Instead of the photo duplicating itself I get a "blank outlined box".

I know this is located in other locations but I can't seem to make it work with my block.
I would like the cross and the text N to rotate independantly of the arrow while the N stays with the thick line. That's the easy part. How can I make the N move along the rotation path and keep the text aligned horizontally? I read something about linked action and move, but I can't make it work.
