Jan 22, 2013I am trying to standardize a series of photos, so that the distance between the eyes for each picture is 100 pixels. I can see the distance in pixels using the measuring tool, but when I try and scale the picture, the measuring tool disappears and I have to eyeball the distance. Is there a way to create a line or something between the eyes that I can then set the distance as 100 pixels to resize it? Or a way to see the distance in pixels while I scale the photo so I don't have to guess?

Apr 12, 2012I'm trying to create a series of sphere images that are to be used as an animation, whereas in my case I have a transparent background layer and a layer containing a sphere. Then I want to add a 15 degree rotation for each new image. The problem is that every time I select the rotate tool and click on the image to enter the value, the sphere is moved slightly.

Aug 7, 2013I'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.
Photoshop :: Saving Actions
Dec 31, 2006I am in the middle transferring all my programmes and data from an old to a new machine.
Whilst setting up CS2 I realised that I did not have a number of my own actions on the new machine.
I have rooted all over CS2 and cannot find what looks like the folder where my actions are saved.
How can I save these actions and transfer them to CS2 on the new machine?
Photoshop :: Saving Actions
May 3, 2006I would like to save my actions correctly --so I can transfer them from CS to CS2----Have read threads but nothing seems to save in the Adobe >preset > action folder ..as a atn.file?
To export actions from Photoshop CS:
1. Select the action set you want to migrate in the Actions Palette.
2. Choose Save Actions from the Actions palette menu. ( Always grayed-out ?)
3. Specify a destination to save the ATN file.
4. Click Save

Photoshop :: Saving/Finding PS Actions On HD
Jun 6, 2004I've recently created a set of actions that my coworkers and I commonly use at work (in TV news). However, we all use separate computers each with its own copy of PS or a network shared version.
My question is where does PS store the actions or action sets I have created on the HD and then how can I take those files and copy them to another computer. I also want to backup the actions on my home PC (i.e. save them to a disk and take them home). The only action file I can find is "default actions.atn" but I can't find any of my custom action sets. Also the only other way I can figure out how to copy and share actions is through the droplet measure, but it would be a lot easier for us to keep the process action-based (i.e. inside photoshop, not drag and drop)

Photoshop :: Using Automated Actions, Then Saving As A Jpeg

Photoshop :: Using Actions: Saving Files With Consecutive Filenames
Dec 3, 2002Question about saving images through an action. According to the 7.0 help manual, I should leave the filename as the default if I want my files to be saved with consecutive names (i.e. image01,image02, etc).
I created an action to do a number of things before saving my file.. everything works great except that photoshop keeps saving my file as 'untitled-1.jpg,' which overwrites the previous file of the same name. What can i do? Feel free to IM as well.

I close down everything and initiate automate > batch process then Photoshop will complain about not being able to locate the clipping mask.In my action setup I first open my .psd containing my sleeve shape, then open an actual pattern image and then all other steps ending up with saving the .psd with pattern clipping mask to .png.

Photoshop :: Actions Stopped Working After Downloading More Actions
Aug 31, 2004I downloaded a couple of actions from the web to my actions palette and they worked fine, but then I got greedy and downloaded a few more and that’s when things went south. Now none of the actions work - by not working I mean when I mouse over the Play Selection icon at the bottom of the action palette I get that little circle with a line through it. This happens with the PS default actions as well (I also get the circle on the Stop Playing/Recording and Begin Recording icons).
Somewhere in the following is probably what messed things up.
I downloaded actions to my computer in zip files. Copied them over to the actions folder (or somewhere) and unzipped them. I went back to the actions palette and hit “load actions” and loaded them. On the second set of actions that I downloaded I remember thinking “why am I copying and pasting these files - I bet I should cut and paste them, so I did and that may have been the start of the great crumble of 2004. PhotoShop help says: (under Saving and loading actions) “Actions are automatically saved the the Actions Palette folder in PS7.0 Settings folder. If this file is lost or removed, the actions you created are lost”.
I have searched for the settings folder and couldn’t find it, but the actions still show up on the actions palette - they just don’t run.
I’m a little fuzzy on the details on the above steps. In fact, I probably did something different on each download.
one more thing, I reloaded PhotoShop, but still nothing.
Photoshop :: How To View All Actions In Actions Panel
Nov 24, 2013My computer crashed and I removed all apps and reinstalled so now none of my actions appear. However I do have a backup file of all of them and want to reinstall but before when I was using cs6 ( Im assuming same thing as CC as it was all on the subscription plan ) I would click actions then the right arrows and it would bring me a big screen of all the actions ( even the ones that were just preloaded in ps ) and it was a big box with all the actions and some options to record etc...Now that box isn't there and it's just a single column drop down menu.
View 1 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Saving To JPG In 2.8.2?
Oct 6, 2012I just upgraded from 2.6 and it seems this is a major difference. In 2.6 I was able to use the Save command to save to the format the file was in to begin with - JPG. I saw all the dialog boxes only once, the first time I saved; then I could use Ctrl-S and see just a fill bar at the bottom - the same bar that GIMP used for other things, like Unsharp Mask.
2.8.2 is not working that way. When I try to save I don't have the JPG option, just something called XCF which I've never heard of before. To save to JPG it says I have to use the "Export" command, which opens a similar (very large) dialog box to the Save but with the JPG option. I can save, and write over, the file that way, but now every time I want to resave - or re-Export, in GIMP's terms - I get the same dialog box, which I now have to click through all over again. I'm restoring old photos and they sometimes need lots of editing so I usually resave a lot. But having to go through all those dialogs over and over is really time-consuming.
Plus, if I try to close the file right after I've done the Export thing I still get a warning that I'm trying to close without saving and my data might be lost. Presumably this is because I haven't saved to that other format - XCF - because when I try a plain Save I don't get the warning message. But then I have two files instead of one and I have to take time to delete the XCF one.
I admit I'm no GIMP expert but I was actually starting to get comfortable with 2.6 to the point where it was fairly easy to do what I needed to do for these photos. Now I've got this save issue which has taken my comfort level way back. Am I missing something here? Is there an easier and faster way to save my JPGs and not have to deal with other formats I don't need? I've looked in Preferences but there doesn't seem to be anything there useful.
FYI, I'm using GIMP in Windows XP SP3.
GIMP :: Skript-Fu / Saving JPG As Little As Possible
Apr 7, 2012how to save a JPG using as little space as possible as well as using Skript-Fu. That in fact means just saving Bytes which are directly related to the image itself and avoiding meta informations and what ever else is saved with it.For comparison reasons I have saved a JPG using the ordinary Gimp GUI (so no Skript-Fu). The result was ok. Unfortunately saving using Skript-Fu did not bring the same results regarding the image size.The function file-jpeg-save actually comes with most of the parameters available in the ordinary GUI save form however, except "Save EXIF data" and "Save thumbnails".
Well, the EXIF data are no problem. Those are parasite data and parasites can easily be detached from images, drawables and even global settings. And that obviously saves some bytes.But I could not find anything regarding saving the thumbnail data. So my questions are: How to avoid saving the thumbnails within the image? Are there other data which are not directly image data? And if yes how can i get rid of them? Or maybe is there even a tutorial on how to save jpg as small as possible using Skript-Fu?
Photoshop :: Actions: Where I'm Putting My Actions
Nov 17, 2006I like to put my actions somewhere special on my hardrive, not in apps folder.

Lately, it keep defaulting to save as in the app folder-- even though I did navigate to my special area on last save as.
GIMP :: Colors Getting Juiced When Saving As JPG?
May 25, 2011I've decided to give GIMP a serious test drive after using Photoshop for many years. However, I've run into what I consider a fatal flaw, and after much searching can't seem to find an answer to it's probably something dumb that I'm doing. As a photographer, I shoot in RAW. Of course when I want to post pics on the web I save as a low res .jpg. Thing is, when I get a picture looking how I want (usually I'm saving the files as .psd when working on them) and then go to save it as a .jpg, when I look at the jpg saved it is VERY noticeably different from the file I'm working on. Specifically, the colors and hues get juiced to the point where it looks terrible. It almost seems like GIMP is putting it's own color curve to the files. Same thing happened saving as .png. Saving as .psd seems to save 'correctly' - i.e. no color changes or other weirdness.
After multiple searches,there be a 'feature' that I need to deactivate?
GIMP :: Saving To PNG Changes Gamma To 0.4545
Sep 8, 2011[URL]
I saved PNG without checked "Save gamma" but it saves the file with gamma set to 0.4545. I can see it while working with xloadimage: Boot_800x600.png is 800x600 PNG image, color type RGB, 8 bit, file gamma 0.4545
It's too dark (other applications ignore this settings). I'm using GIMP 2.6.11. Newer version is not much possible (as it is unstable in my linux distribution). but if you're sure that newer version resolves this bug, I will gladly upgrade.
why this bug is still active even if it is known from older versions and how can I avoid it?

View 1 Replies View RelatedGIMP :: Saving RGB Images To CMYK?
Nov 12, 2012I am saving my images (assembled in GIMP), exporting as jpgs then converting to pdf pages.My end product needs to be one pdf, so I will be inserting these separate pages into one 44-page pdf.
I need to retain the 300 resolution (actually, somewhere the resolution has slipped to 299.98 which I'm hoping will be so near it'll look fine). (using MacBook OS 10.6.8 with the GIMP 2.8 version)I think for the ebook, the RGB of my GIMP images will be best. So, I've got that, or will have as soon as I do all the export/saving.
(as an alternative, for the paper printed version which will precede the ebook), how do I save the RGB images to CMYK which I understand will print more true to what I'm seeing on my actual paintings > images in GIMP on my computer screen (the two of which look the same at present)? And at what point in these steps is it best to do the new CMYK version?
