I don't know if this is the right name, but my options for cropping, moving, my wand, etc, have disappeared on me by accident. I don't know how to get them back in their original place. Here's a screen shot of what it looks like now. (It's the window that usually stays on the left of the screen, I think for most people. )

Everything , my options, are gone and replaced only by the airbrush tool.
Why will dock tool option not dock back to toolbox? I am using 2.8.

Gimp in Linux (Mint 11), I've customised my toolbar layout and am happy. Gimp remembers my settings and things tend to be fine.
Every so often, however, Gimp loses my colour palette (palette editor), forcing me to add it again. And it's always my colour palette (palette editor).
Why does this happen?Attached File(s) Screenshot.jpg (53.72K) Number of downloads: 5
I've used Gimp successfully for a couple of years—but now it’s usable. I can’t adjust the size of the brush, paint, eraser or use other functions because below the tools palate all I see is “You can drop dockable dialog here” and every function that used to be in that space is gone. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it stays the same. How can I bring back all the functions?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI use GIMP for painting, pixel art and general image editing, and have batch files set up to run GIMP with the appropriate sessionrc and gimprc parameters, as well as to copy and save all other [...]\username\.gimp-2.8\*rc files.
However, whenever I use one setup and then another, my tool options are all messed up, and it's rather aggravating having to reset them every time.
I have used GIMP before, uploading artwork I created from it on to deviantART. However, this has been quite a while ago, back when it was GIMP 2.4 or so.
I recently just got a Wacom Bamboo tablet though, and wanted to get back into making art. I redownloaded GIMP (this time version 2.8) and while I am very satisfied with the update, there is one thing that has bothered me.
I'm not exactly a fan of the new format for the tool options of the brushes from how they used to be.
Basically, I prefer to how the tool options for the brushes were for GIMP 2.4 over the updated 2.8. Is there a way I can keep version 2.8 with the slight adjustment of having the tool options formatted the way they were in 2.4?
For me it's more of an inconvenience adjusting the brush size and whatnot, and I'm so much more used to how it was formatted in older versions.
Due to a catastrophic failure on my PC's part, the BiOS needed to be reset, and I effectively lost my irreplaceable copy of CS5 Extended. Since I do not have 1,000 dollars, and I NEED to be able to do graphic design, I'm putting all my faith into Gimp at this point, hahaha.
I just downloaded the GPS package for Gimp so that I could make photoshop-esque drawings if needed.
Huge problem: I was able to copy all of the folder contents (Brushes, Gradients, Palettes, Patterns) from the GPS package into the Gimp respective folders EXCEPT for Tool-Options. I'd assume that if I can't install the saved settings along with the package it's pretty much useless.
I've navigated every folder I could find within Gimp, and I can't find this damn thing XD.
While I love digital painting, my current task requires me to be capable of designing a shop sign, business cards, and logos. Is Gimp comparable to photoshop in the typography realm? This will be my first official professional job, so it HAS to look good. So far Gimp reminds me of photoshop elements, which was my favorite photoshop due to ease of use.
My tool options area is tiny; I have to scroll through it and it's horrible. I haven't been able to figure out how to change it.

I'm using Gimp 2.6.8 on Windows and, somehow, the Tool Options separated into a new window a week or so ago. I tried docking it back to the Toolbox, but nothing is working.
I googled and found that this is normally fixed by dragging Tool Options onto the Toolbox, but there is nowhere for me to do that. Is there some trick or maybe this is just a bug or something? Nothing seems to work and the separate Tool Options window is incredibly annoying.
My 'Tool Options' Box has always been on the left of the screen - at the bottom of the 'Tool box'. I clicked on something yesterday while using the Tool Options Box and somehow moved it. There is now a message there that says 'You can drop dockable dialogs here'. I've tried various things but can't get the Tool Options box back. It's lurking underneath the main Tool Box. I can drag it out and use it, but afterwards it hides again. I know this has to be a dead simple problem but I just can't seem to correct it.
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I choose a tool, the value(like Brush size, Opacity...) in "Tool Option" often become blank.
By the way, if I drop the "Tool Options" out of the "Tool Box", the values appears.
Another problem already! My tool options dialog box is greyed out and will not respond; won't allow me to choose options.
I clicked it off and brought it back (via windows, etc.) but it's still grey and nonfunctioning.
How can i make it work?

It seems that I've somehow "hidden" all of the extra options for any given tool in the Toolbox in GIMP (in 2.6, but I'm having the same issue in 2.8). I'm quite baffled as to what I did to cause this issue. URL....
View 2 Replies View RelatedEvery time I open up GIMP, I have to reposition the Tool Options menu that's all the way to the left so that I can see the menu options at the top (File, Edit, etc.), and I also have to move around the Layers menu as per my own preference.
Is there a way to pin them to a specific spot in GIMP and save them there so that every time I open GIMP they're in the same position as where I left them at?
I can't get the Tool Options dialogue box to re-dock to the toolbar. I've looked at a few other threads, but they haven't worked. I'll attach screencaps if I need to.

I cropped an image using the Cutting Tool, now rather than recreate the image with more height, I'd like to see if I can add some more white background space to the bottom of this existing xcf image (s0 I can add some text) after the fact.

1) When I make a line-I used to be able to type in the start point, angle, length, and end point. Now I make a line I don’t have that option. Furthermore I hover the muse over line and try to make an extension of for example 3.5" from the start point after I hit enter it will put the start point at what i think is a random point of the screen. How can get the options back.
2) When i press-pull an object-When i would press-pull an object i would (with my mouse) drag it in the direction that wanted it to go hen type in the length. So if i were to pull it to the right then type in the number it would go to the right.How can change that
I've been using Merge to HDR to make 32-bit images the past few days. It all went beautifully until yesterday when all of a sudden Photoshop started to display any newly created images very oddily (extreme gamma/exposure values). I've been able to pinpoint it to the View -> 32-bit Preview Options window, which has very erratic values.
So somehow Photoshop defaulted to very incorrect values for this window. Is there any way to change the default values or reset this menu option?
I use Print Preview in X4 for all printing - great tool.
When I use Print Preview in X6 the print options are not saved when I exit Print Preview to make adjustments.
I make the correction - go back into Print Preview and all options have gone back to default. Is there anyway of correcting this.
I am having a weird issue whenever I make a selection with the pen tool and right click and make it a selection. The selections (dancing ants) go around the outside of it. I know to hit Shift+Ctrl+I and it inverses it normal.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to stroke a bezier curve with the Pen tool. The color of the stroke I can manage all right, but I am totally unable to find out how I edit the line type and its width in Pen tool. In the leftmost submenu showing the pen tool, there are several preset options (for the pen tool and other tools), but none of which I need. What I want, is simply a 1 pixel wide pen which draws whole lines, not dashed or dotted. And I would also like to have some feathering and/or antialiasing options in the stroke.

I bought the adobe creative suite 6 master collection, and this function works fine in Photoshop but it does nto work in Illustrator.
When I click once on a tool to choose it, the tool's options (ex. the 3 options of the lasso) stay displayed so that I have to re-click (anywhere) before I can use it. This by opposition to the normal behavior of PS that is when you click on a tool it is choosen and you can use it right away. I must have change a preference but I can't find wich.
