GIMP :: Selecting Single Row Or Column (2013)
Apr 30, 2013
I've been using Gimp since 2.6 and had previously used PS CS2That version had the option to select a single orw or column (from the 'Select' menu).I rarely had the need for this, but I'm now working on a project that could use that feature, and Gimp doesn't seem to have it . . . I tried selecting it with the available selection tools, but I'm not having any success with a large image.If it matters, I'm running 2.8.4 on a Win7-64bit installation.

Let's say you just have a simple black line in Gimp. You then use the color select tool to select it, and you plan on then converting that Selection into a single line Path.
From:
Into:
You select the line, but the Selection tool actually travels a loop around the line. So, when you turn that Selection into a Path, you do not have a single line, but you instead have a loop.
So my question is this: is there any mechanism for making your Selection in GIMP just a single line so that it can then be converted into a Path?
Originally, I was trying to achieve this in Inkscape (and started a thread about it in the Inkscape forum). However, it appears that, although other Vector Art programs can achieve this, Inkscape cannot. So I was thinking that I could instead use Paths in GIMP instead, but this is not possible because of the nature of Selections, as far as I can tell.
Here's an attempt to illustrate this request:

Is there a way to restrict tool movement along a single (horizontal or vertical) axis? I'm not talking about moving objects - as I checked and there's a thread for that - but moving those little squares in the corners of a transform tool selection.Example: I want to change the perspective of a picture. I apply the perspective tool and the picture is overlaid with a grid and four corners. I want to be able to pick a corner - say the bottom right one - and move it *only* right or left, without any vertical shift.
I tried with guidelines but I cannot make them stick to the exact side of the image neither if I tell GIMP they're magnetic.But what's worst is that even if I manually put guides along the edge, it seems that the corners of the perspective tool ignore completely the magnetic attribute.
In Photoshop I could simply pick one corner, hold the shift key and restrict movement to the two main axes.

I have a 1024x768 canvas and I want to draw two 1 pixel columns, one starting in column 0 and one in column 1023 (basically two tall white strips on the far left and far right)
How can I make this as a png which is transparent in the middle. I need to put this on top of another image and cover the left and right edges.

A quick way to add a single column to multiple items in the Content Center? The column would be the same across the board, and I really don't want to edit several hundred family tables one at a time if I don't have to.

If I have two vector shapes on top of one another, when I drag over both to select a few nodes from the top one, it selects both (this is now a 'feature'). I don't want this.
I know if I want to select only the top one now that I have to isolate the shape first, but this is terribly inneficient for the way I've been editing vector shapes for years now.
Is there any way to turn off multiple layer path selection and having to isolate anything? While the new feature can be nice at times, it's mostly more of a hinderence than a way out.

I am using AutoCAD 2013 - Educational Version, and I want to convert my linework into a column grid. For some reason the COLUMNGRIDADD command is not being recognized by the program. When I type it in the command line, it just says Unknown Command.
Additionally, my Build Panel is missing from the ribbon, which is the other source for the column grid tools. I tried to reload or change the CUI, but so far this has not been successful.

I have a problem inserting the slanted columns when I use the "Beam/Column joints" commando. When I insert the slanted column, the beams are divided.
It should look like picture 1, but it always ends up as image 2. How can I solve this?

when creating a schedule with a simple formula column (e.g : [QUANTITY]*Width), the formula column total doesn't add the formula results for a grand total. The total shown is the addition of Width of element.
If I try and enable "Apply formula to totals", the total is : total quantity*total width instead of just a simple addition of formula resulting values.
For example:
I have 4 windows of 2 different styles.Two windows have a width of 2 meters, the other 2 windows have a width of 3 meters. I want to find out, my total window width, of all window styles.Therefore, i make a schedule with the following columns: QUANTITY, WIDTH and TOTAL WIDTH. The total width column is a formula column (Quantity*Width). The total of the formula column (Quantity*Width) doesn't add the resulting values (2*2+3*2=10), it only adds the simple widths without multiplication with quantity, my result is 5, wich is incorect. If i enable "Apply formula to totals", it multiplies total quantity (4) by total width (5).
I need a solution for having the corect total on the formula column.

I am trying to publish to the CC a guide rail. The vendor of the rail gives me the option of entering the desired length of the rail. After that he gives me the option to choose between the length that I entered and a shorter and longer standard length witch can be delivered faster.
I want to do the same thing with my published part, but I cannot make a key parameter to change depending on the entered custom parameter. I want the user to make the next steps when inserting from the CC: 1- select the size of the rail; 2-select the type of the rail; 3- enter the desired length of the rail; 4- choose between the desired length and the 2 recommended lengths (I need these 3 lengths to be shown)
Is this possible?

Using it to design minecraft textures. The textures are quite small, each block being 32x32 pixels and arranged in a 512x512 pixel sheet. Basically, I'm making a lot of small icons. Now, what I want to do is select an area, and change just some colors within it - like changing all greys for green or all reds for blue. I cannot find how to do this, apart from using the Wand to select the parts by themselves and change - it is possible, but veeery time-consuming (due to low resolution, every pixel that goes wrong will be noticed).

Is there a way to select a layer for editing other than by clicking on it in the layer panel?
I currently have a >200MB xcf file with nearly 100 different layers which I need to adjust before I merge then down a bit. I have found that you can find where the layer is in the list by holding the left mouse button down while hovering the cursor over it, but it always then disappears off the screen and it's a chore trying to find it. I have all the layers named, but it would be a lot more convenient if there was a way to select the layer through the image itself?

I need to select a few characters within a larger word
BIGselectWORD
I'd like to edit just those internal letters for font size and color, etc, but leave the outer letters alone.
In other graphics progs I've tried, you can usually just select those particular letters and edit but I tried that in gimp but couldn't do it

I am having a hard time trying to add a logo to a picture. I open the picture, then I open the logo as a layer and it pops into the center of the photo. Problem is, I don't want it positioned in the center, so how do I select it and move it around to where I want it? Even when the layer is highlighted I can't figure out which tool will let you grab it.

I select the Text tool (Gimp 2.8) and then I double click to bring up the box that allows me to choose the Font I require. When I use the up and down arrow to find the font that I require GIMP shuts down. It also happens if I don't use the button but use the slider. If I don't save any work before I select the Text tool I lose everything.

I just installed Acad v. 2014. I opened up an existing file, went to select a line, but noticed that the line does not highlight when I hover over it like my last version. How do I change the settings so that when I hover over an object, whether it be a line or a cross hatched area, it will highlight that object so I know the length or area of the object?

lets say I marquee select the vertices on a cube in an orthographic view (top view or side view) only the vertices facing the camera get selected. And to clarify, CAMERA BASED SELECTION IS TURNED OFF. Also, not sure if it is related, but backface culling in preferences is also turned off. This usually will not happen in perspective view; but yesterday it did start happening in perspective view as well. And even more strange, it does not affect all meshes in the scene. Only some will react this way.
This bug only recently started happening and it is driving me nuts. I have been running 2013 on this machine since it was released, but not until recently did this bug start to occur; so I am wondering if I accidentally turned something on/off?

I am missing entities when I try to pick on them.Not window, not crossing. Just trying to pick an entity. I usually select entities first before my command.
Is there a variable that might have changed? I played with PICKBOX & APERTURE but this doesn't change anything when I try to select something. I can have the entity in the box right next to the intersection of the crosshairs and instead of selecting the entity it starts to window.
I have a logitech m705 mouse w/ setpoint software ver 6.32.7 & driver ver 5.33.14 installed.

Using Autocad 2013 I'm having this massive slow down when I choose a tool such as trim. All I have to do is select the trim (or chamfer etc) button for example and it's as though I get a framerate of about 5. I've never had a problem in 2012.
Rough pc specs:
win7 x64
8gb ram
i3-2100 3.1ghz
amd radeon hd 6700 (latest drivers installed)
The pc specs are fine - perhaps an issue with the graphic card?

I've created a picture with a layer of lava underneath a stone wall which is visible through some of the cracks in the stone. I'm looking to use the rippling animation on ONLY the lava layer while keeping the rest of the layers, i.e. shadows,drop shadow, background, etc. in tact.
Is this possible? I tried several different ways but couldn't make it work. So in other words, I'm only trying to animate only one layer.

I am recoloring a paintball gun from blue to green. There are some parts with screws in the middle, is there a way I can select one area, and have another inverted?
[URL].......
This is what I have so far. You see that rectangle with the screw in the middle? There's my issue. I need to colorize the blue, but not the screw.
I know there is a tool where it everything is masked in red and it selects what isn't red, but that is too hard to use. I want to use the lasso tool.

I used select by color to select this STEELERS word logo from this image below:
Now I cut and pasted it to a youth flag football team pic in the corner. But because I captured some of the sky in the background, the yellow STEELERS logo kind of blended in at that point as seen here (I cropped out the team and am just showing the corner):
Is there a way to select this logo by color and at the same time maybe widen that selection by a few pixels to capture some of the black around the STEELERS logo so that when I transfer it to the team pic, it stands out more by essentially creating a border around it?

I'm having a bit of an annoying issue regarding the text tool. I have a bunch of text layers in an invisible layer group. When I try to create new text in a layer that's outside of this layer group, it will select an existing text layer located wherever I click -- even though the selected text layer is invisible and in another layer group. I simply want to create new text on a new layer wherever I click and not worry about selecting invisible text.
