GIMP :: How To Create Exploding Image
May 23, 2013
I have used gimp before with awesome results, but one thing I have not been able to find for Gimp is a tutorial on how to create an exploding effect. I am specifically looking to be able to have a picture of say a face, then being able to have the left half of the face look like it is exploding while keeping the right face fully intact. sort of like the image that I have linked.

Number of downloads: 30 But I want it so it looks like the actual face is being exploded, not a separate image being plopped onto the side of a persons face.

Insert a Raster Image or an OLE object (like a selection from a XLS worksheet).
Explode the Raster Image/OLE object.
=> the Raster Image/OLE dissapears and the frame remains (LINE objects).
I think that these types of entities should not allow exploding.

Someone wants me to make them a logo for their website, and they want a "Backspace" keyboard key underneath their text.
Is it possible to create one of these "Backspaces Keys" of my own, or is it only possible to copy one from Google somewhere and render the image in Gimp to make it look more like a logo? How do I go about doing this in the Gimp format if it is possible?

I'm a machine knitter. I'm converting images into 2,3 or 4-colors for knitting on my compuerized knitting machine. I need to have a separate "line" for each color of the image in order for my machine to knit with yarn of that color. If 4 colors, I must knit 4 times for each row, once with each color.
I'm doing pretty well with creating the needed image file of 2,3 or 4 colors, but have no clue how I might be able to create a master monster file where each horizontal "line" is essentially exploded into 4 lines, one for each color.

I'm thinking about some new feature which I'd love to see in GIMP but can'tadd it myself. Maybe there's a way to achieve it.
To the point. I'd love to be able to create new image from clipboard from acommand line. There is such function so I guess it wouldn't be a problem toadd it. Having this one could make a shortcut (e.g. in Unity's launcher RMBmenu). It's useful when some app (e.g. screenshot taking) puts image inclipboard and you want to quickly edit it.

I am trying to create a vignette on an image and find that when I use a brush with a fuzzy edge the result is not what I'm looking for. There are these circles that are left behind where there should be a smooth transition. (See Attachment)

I am trying to create an oval image for a button on a webpage. I make the canvas size about 90x40 and then select the ellipse tool and fill the canvas with it. I then bucket fill the circle/oval with a green color. How do I knock the rest of the white corners out of the image? I only want to green oval to be the final jpg.

Can Gimp create a highlight on mouse-over when an image map is created and put on a web page?
Maybe that's a thing only an html editor like Kompozer can do?

I'm using the script export-selection.scm to create a series of PNG files from an existing image. It works fine but I find the fact that it saves the file to a name that it constructs (based on the .xcf file loaded, and whether it is saving a one layer or visible layers, etc) really slows me down, as I have to bounce between gimp and explorer to rename each output file after every save.
I looked at the source to see if I could tweak it so that the filename it created was unique, but I must have missed a crucial episode somewhere, because I couldn't get past first base.
Here's the candidate line from the script:
(outputName (string-append imageNameNoExt "-sel"))
..so you get a filename of MyGimpImageName-sel.png. What I want to do is create filenames called MyGimpImageName-sel-001.png, MyGimpImageName-sel-002.png etc.
An alternative would be to add an edit box to the dialog to allow you to specify the filename.
On a related subject, is it possible to set up a key binding to execute a script? If this could be done, I could roll a version of the script that skipped the dialog altogether and just used the last settings. In combination with the unique filename mod, this would speed up the job considerably.

I'm trying to trace around an image to create a line drawing. The object I'm tracing has a lot of curves in it so using the Pencil Tool. Also, I've used the Paths Tool and then clicked "stroke path". That's all fine and well but it's taking FOREVER to trace the picture.
Since the image has a lot of curves is there a tool or gadget in Gimp that can provide a smooth curve, say, around a circle?

After I open a create new image, the cursor disappears and the last tool I choose (rectangle...) appears and the cursor (arrow) disappears. Is this standard or is there a way to exit from the tool box and use just the arrow cursor?

Is there any way to create a keyboard shortcut to put focus on the image window? I see how to create shortcuts to select every window except the image window, and it if I could just select the image window with a keyboard shortcut, GIMP would be much easier for me to use.
Also is there a way to create a keyboard shortcut to toggle the visibility of a layer?

using Gimp to create a website header that includes image mapping. I figured out how (Filters > Web > Image Map). I just can't figure out how to save it in a format that I can then upload to a Bandcamp website.
I can open a graphic in Gimp that I made in Powerpoint. A second window opens with the same graphic and that is where I add the image mapping. So now how do I save it so that when I upload it the tags are there? Or am I supposed to copy all the tags and then paste that code? I can find the place in Bandcamp where the code gets pasted - but I haven't yet figured out how to copy the code.

I am often using text within AutoCAD 2012. Here is what I do, look at the attachments:
1. Create the text using the mtext tool
2. Explode the text using the txtexp tool
But, when I explode the text, lines appear inside the text like in the image. I then have to explode the whole thing and delete these lines manually. Any tool or add-on to get around this annoyance every time I insert text.

If i pass perspective to top to left and to perspective, etc. the arrows of viewport clipping "exploding", and i must recalibrate il clipping every time.
It was already present in the 2013 release...everyone has this problem.
Ps: beautiful work with the viewport navigation!

When defining a block it is possible to choose wether the block can be exploded or not. Is there a way of undoing this. I can edit the block in full version with refedit but in LT there is no way of editing this block. I can see advantages of this setting but I imagine someone accidentilly unpicking this box and creating unexplodable blocks without noticing.

I'm trying to explode a 3d block that I created from a manufacturer's horizontal mullion detail. Whenever I do that, it disappears. I tried setting it to layer 0, still disappears. I made sure all the layers were turned on and thawed. Whats weird is that I can explode the vertial mullion block and it doesn't disappear. I tried matching the vertical mullion properties to the horiz, still no luck.

Most of my design work requires me to xRef an existing title block to my paperspace and vport my drawing into my titleblock in paperspace. However, when I attach my titleblock using xRef into my paperspace, the scaling went totally out. Mostly my block comes out way bigger than it is suppose to. The problem is that I have set my designs and block to function in milimeters, so basically it should scale down to the same scale right?
And also, it's quite troublesome to keep going back to my titleblock dwg to edit/save and reload it back in my design. Is there anyway to explode the xRef titleblock? Every time I tried they keep saying its an external reference. Is there any way to go around this so I can edit it without going back and forth?

I have a Mechanical drawing with numerous Xrefs. I need to make changes to the Plumbing layers which is in O-Xref layer. I have tried to bind all Xrefs but cannot bind all of them. The piping is in the O-Xref layer. I cannot explode nor can I Xref-Edit anything in this layer. This is one of a number of drawings but this is the first one that I cannot explode or edit the layer and I have never run into this problem before.
Is there a way that the file can be locked up to prevent editing?
