When I copy a selection from one image to another, I can't select the feather tool to blend it in the new image (it's greyed out). I have to first anchor the layer, then use the paths tool to re-select the pasted portion again, then feather. Is there another way?
Update: Looks like I can feather before copying/pasting the selection.
When using the blend tool to blend colour between two objects is there a way to see the anchor points so I know where to click the blend tool. I realise the cursor changes when over one but its seems very cumbersome to have to move it around until it changes rather than click directly on one which I could do if I could see it.

Having the Paintbrush Tool at start-up is inconvenient because if I click on the image it paints where I click. Then I have then got to undo the paint.How can I set GIMP so that the Move Tool is the default mode when it starts?
I'm using Illustrator CC (on a Win7 Pro machine) at a beginner level, probably halfway to intermediate. I'm trying to learn how to blend colors together for highlights of various types (skin tones, clothing, light on objects, etc.) so that when I'm making a graphic for a project I'll have a decent idea of which tool/technique is best for the specific effect I need.
I'm trying to use the Smooth Color option in the blend tool. Late yesterday afternoon I recall creating two ellipses (one of which was a solid fill and one of which was a gradient going from black to transparent) and getting a smooth color transition between the two. It was a much harsher effect than I was looking for so I didn't keep it. This morning, while trying to replicate the same thing, I seem to be unable to use smooth color between two objects if one or more of them has a gradient applied. I only get what you see below, which is a step between the two objects.
I've done searches and found multiple references to blending gradients in this way and have followed those instructions (create the shapes, fill with the gradients, then either click on the Blend tool and click on the center of each shape, or click on Object -> Blend -> Make) but I can't seem to get a Smooth Color blend if either object has a gradient applied. Am I missing an important step somewhere? I'm 95% sure I accomplished it yesterday and nothing has been changed since then.
I am trying to blend two different art brushes with different colors using the blend tool. I'm trying to use two fixed-size line segments of the same length and then applying the two different brushes to those segments ( each art brush is a different color). Then I want to blend them the regular way so their colors transition. However, when I do this, the first shape is a different color, but all subsequent blend steps are the color of the second blended shape. Why is this? It doesn't blend the colors for some reason.

We can change this by simply renumbering each time but can we get Inventor to always start from 101?
Why did autodesk change the way the snap in 2014 worked prior to its dozen of version of max. The latest snapping tool sucks horribly now.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI don't want my images to default to "snap to guides." I have guides up on most of my files because I use them for spacing my comic; I work from a template so I can have consistent sizing. But I only rarely ever want to snap to those guides.
Yes, I can turn off the snapping, but I have to do this EVERY F***ING TIME. Open a file I've been working on already? Gotta disable the snapping. Open a new file? Gotta disable the snapping. Restarting GIMP because it just crashed? Gotta disable the snapping. Every freaking time for each freaking image. Gimp won't save the setting to the file nor to my preferred settings.
How can I get GIMP to stop setting the guides to snap by default?
This is ridiculous but I can't type.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm a long time user of Gimp. I use it for work and my work involves editing images on the scale of 22000 x 22000 px. With the Gimp 2.8 RC1 the release notes state the GPU acceleration can be enabled with the command line "GEGL_USE_OPENCL=yes"
How do I enable this line? Is it through starting Gimp via a batch file? I'm using the Windows 64 bit binaries so perhaps this was a switch that needed to be set during compiling Gimp. I'm not quite adept at compiling programs though...
How to enable GPU acceleration (or if it's already enabled). Otherwise... other performance improving tips. 16GB of DDR3-1600 works with a cache size of 10GB but my 1090T @ 4ghz can't push pixels fast enough.
I have a Sony Touch Smart tm2 laptop with a touchscreen and pressure sensitivity with the stylus pen was working just fine in Gimp 2.6. I installed Gimp 2.8, and now there is no pressure sensitivity.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm learning to use Coreldraw for artistic metal cutting using a plasma cutter, so the file itself is important and not just what appears on the screen (or what prints out).
I've used the blend tool to draw some circles along a wavy path. I want the circles but I don't want the path. I remove the outline and the path dissappears on the screen but it's still in the file and when I export as a dxf file there is the path cutting right through the circles.
If I use Detach from Path then the circles simple come of my wavy path and end up in a straight line.
Are there any other techniques to give the same result but one where I can keep the circles/objects in their locations while removing the path at file level.
I know of a plugin available for Coreldraw that can take a bunch of dissimilar objects and place them on a path but at this point don't know if it can do what I need and delete the path afterwards.
Or is there any way I can copy the circles without copying the path.
I have Xara Web Designer 6 currently at work.
I know where to get the button palette and how to add items to the control bars.
But, I cannot find the Blend tool, was this tool removed? Where can i find and add it?
I have been having issues with using the blend tool on my object. If you look at the picture, I had one outer shape that was what I wanted shaded and a thinner shape that runs inside the other. It blends perfectly fine everywhere except at the bottom. I don't know how to explain it or what went wrong but I can't figure out how to make the blend fit inside the shape.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to blend a couple of images together using the gradient tool.
I moved one image to the other using the move tool, I then added Layer Mask (in the layers palette), i then got my gradient tool and selected black,white.....I used the gradient tool on the left side of the image and it blended beautifully.
So, now that the left side is blended nicely, I attempt to blend the right side. The right side blends very nice.....but my left side went back to where it was originally.
How do I blend multiple sides of the image?
I am having diffuculty with the blend tool! I tried to upload the image but it said it was't allowed. Not sure how to correctly explain the problem but I'll do my best. I am have trouble getting the blend tool to recognize the images. I can only select the very edge of the images and then it doesn't look like it should when it does blend. How I can upload the file to show what I am trying to say?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've just downloaded the new version of gimp 2.8 and have started fiddling around trying to get myself accustomed. I've been having a problem modifying a blend after it has been rendered.
Somehow I thought I remembered that Gimp 2.6 allowed you to dynamically update the blend after it had been rendered the first time by changing settings like opacity, color, etc...
It seems that the only way to change the rendered blend is to change the settings and redo the blend.
Am I just dreaming that this should be a dynamic function? Is there a bug I'm not aware of?Am I missing something in the process?
