GIMP :: Rule Of Thirds Or Golden Ratio Tool
Mar 4, 2011
I'd suggest a tool for photographic composition that has as options the rule of thirds or the golden ratio. So you can do photo composition on the fly andcrop the image based on it.
Could be use as base Cutting tool, only the grid would be added with the Rule of Thirds and/or Golden Ratio and with an proportionallyadjustable rectangle (3/4, 4/3).
I enclose a mockup. [URL] ........
Circulates a script that generates a grid of thirds rule, but this is done based on a final picture, so there is no way to make composition.

Gimp 2.8.6, Windows 7
I do repetitive editing where I use a rectangle select tool with a 7:10 ratio and use the Rule-of-Thirds grid. Sometime selecting the proper part of the bottom part of the image requires that top part of the Rule-of-Thirds grid lies quite a bit above (off the top of) the image. Then when I choose Crop to Selection, the top of the Rule-of-Thirds grid closes and the top of the selection snaps to the top of the image, which is not what I want.
How to make the top border of the image be at the same place as the top edge of the Rule-of-Thirds grid? If it makes any difference to the procedure, I want the border around the image to all be the default white.

And found it to be really interesting. I'm willing to change the sex of people using this formula (more specifically from male to female). And on the comments section of the video there is this comment saying:
Â
"I used this mask on my face and it matched! This is how i did it: Download picture of mask. Open picture in adobe illustrator. Using pen tool draw lines on the mask. Than remove picture of mask and group all lines. Then put your picture and match it! You need about 5 minutes for this."
Â
But I didn't get it really well... and the video didn't clear things up for me much neither. How I can practice this gender swapping technique and get the best results.

any plugins or such like that will display a rule of thirds grid relative to the cropable area. I know you can drag a thirds shape down etc, but im looking for something as just described, integrated in to the crop window?

I can't find the aspect ratio crop tool in my Lightroom 4. Is there someplace in the settings I can turn that option on?

This is a sudden change of behavior in Lightroom 4.4, Mac OS 10.7.5.
Â
In the past, when I chose the crop tool, with the locked icon in the locked position, when I adjusted the crop, the crop was constrained to the original aspect ratio of the photo. Now, no matter what I do, the crop is kind of "partly" constrained. That is, I start with a vertical image, then drag the crop down so that the crop rectangle has a horizontal aspect ratio, I can drag up on the horizontal crop rectangle so that the original aspect ratio is no longer preserved. Until the aspect ratio has gone horizontal, the original aspect ratio is preserved. It doesn't matter if the lock is locked or unlocked, or whether I hold the shift key or not.
Â
Here's an example:
Â
at this point, the crop is still vertical, with aspect ratio constrained. It's still "as shot" and the padlock icon is locked
Â
Here, the crop is now horizontal, but the aspect ratio is still constrained, "as shot" and still the icon is locked.
Â
Now, things have gotten wonky. When the right edge of the crop hits the edge of the photo, it's possible to drag it upwards. The aspect ration is no longer constrained, and even though the padlock icon is locked the aspect is now "Custom"
Â
As I said, this is new behavior which I have never seen since the version of Lightroom included the crop tool (I started at Lightroom 1.0). Like they all say "I haven't changed anything", but something obviously has changed. I don't believe this is correct behavior, or the behavior I've been used to for years. Is there any way to think this is the correct behavior?
Â
I noticed it sometimes happens on some (most) photos, but not all, and will seemingly randomly start/stop working properly on photos that weren't/were working just minutes before.

Due to that nature of Video, which I work in, pixels are shaped differently for televisions than they are for computers or print. Standard Deffinition is 720x480 pixels yet you can get the pixel aspect ratio in 4:3 or widescreen which is 16:9 yet it is still considered 720x480 pixels. Is there a way to compensate for this? I author DVDs for clients and would like to use GIMP to create menus for the DVDs. I can start a PSD in Adobe Encore CS4, save it as a PSD, open it in GIMP and work in more detail there yet when I save it from GIMP and open it back up in Encore, because of the pixel aspect ratio, the size of the image and menu is stuck at 4:3. Can I save 720x480 pixels in the 16:9 format or do I need to just change the pixels?

Is there a way to invoke the iLogic Rule Editor and pass it an existing rule name or external rule for editing?

I need a way to run a rule which is saved in my top-level assembly using iLogic rule which is saved in a part file in the parent assembly.
I have even tried using an external rule in a txt file, but that gives the error "Component: This function can only be used in an assembly." Â - which makes no sense to me. Â I hope I am just missing something simple. Â I cant believe with all its other strengths, that iLogic would be so limited in that regard. Â Why is there not simply a snippet under the 'Run Other' that allows you to specify an assembly file and the rule name? Â (like there is for running a rule in a component from the assembly)

I want to simply set a custom iproperty as the Description in each part file within my assembly. I can do this easily at part level with ilogic but I want to be able to run the rule from the assembly level and all the parts run the rule. I am struggling to find a way to do this.
I think this may be the best method I have found but I think it must be far easier?

I am working for customer with a simple item with his iLogic design. He has created a simple form to modify his iProperties. To modify the current material, a multi-value parameter was created and the following rule as a local rule;
"MultiValue.List("MATLIST") = iProperties.Materials
iProperties.Material = MATLIST"
He is now trying to make this an external rule but gets the following error
Error in rule: Mat2, in document: Mat2.iLogicVb
iProperties.Material: is probably a bad material name.
The more info tab says:
System.ArgumentException: iProperties.Material: is probably a bad material name.

Obviously LR seems to use some of the lens correction information it gets from Micro Four Thirds cameras. This shows when compared to results from RAW converters that don't.
Â
I have noticed this for my Olympus OM-D and the 12-50 mm zoom. Is that the reason why there is no lens profile for that lens in Lightroom? And is this the case for all MFT lenses?

Is it possible that I LOST my aspect ratio option in tool options when cropping a photo for the website??? It is gone and I am sure it was there before. Using photo ratio, customer or other is no good for what I am doing. .

while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the access ratio drop down menu. They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesn't have this option.

Ive been looking in to grids and the golden section for design. Having had no formal graphic design training i find it very interesting.
I understand that the golden section is a ratio that is naturally aesthetically pleasing to the eye and that it can be found at 68% off a 100% length line. i.e: if you had a 100cm line, 68cms along would be the golden section and design based on this division should be on the way to looking balanced.
Now ive tried applying this to alot of web sites and none seem to adhere to it really. Ive been using this software on a free trial by a company called atrise. Its a resizable grid that floats on other windows, which constantly shows the golden section ratios. As i say not many websites use it as far as i can see.
Ive also been looking in to grid design which is closley tied to typography and, in fact, the design of a grid should be geverned, to some extent, by the size of the text.
What i want to know is, is there any way of combining the golden section rules and grid design. I cant put the two together for some reason. Im looking for someone with a good undrstanding of both to enlighten me!

I have checked the road map for GIMP and I have seen that the Unified transform tool can be expected in version 3.8. (ugh)
Now what I would like to ask is there any tool or plugin for GIMP that can transform my selections? Or is there any open source image editor that can do it.
I'm not an artist and just for this I have to use Photoshop. For me PS is an overkill for just cutting up an image.
