GIMP :: Smudging Inside A Selection
Apr 22, 2013
I'm confused about using the smudge tool inside a selection and I don't know if it's a lack of knowledge or bug within Gimp 2.8..
I paint a blue circular area with a thick black border around it. I fuzzy select the blue in the middle. I dodge one side and burn the other. I leave the selection where it is already and I want to smudge the blue hues to make a smoother transition. If I start the smudge from outside the selection, it will pull black into the mix.
Is this supposed to happen? Shouldn't the selection keep the black from being pulled in? If not, why not?
I've also noticed that occasionally(it's random, I don't know what I've changed or what) if I'm zoomed in, that some pixels outside the selection will change color if smudging outwards. It's only within maybe 2 or 3 pixels outside it.

I have successfully done 3 images on that tutorial but when I tried the tutorial for the 4th time, it could not smudge anymore. Certainly I have tried some basic troubleshooting hoping that it will fix the bug (saving the file and Restarting PS, restarting my computer) but it still couldn't do anything.
I have thoughts of asking the tutorial owner regarding this matter but I have doubts since I believe that there is a high possibility that it is the program itself which is malfunctioning.

drag the image INSIDE a selection, like with MSPaint? I find it really ironic that I can't find anything on this, since it seems pretty straightforward. I've used other editing software before, and it had a 'clipping' option, but I'm not seeing that anywhere here.

is there a way, that objects only inside the selection window or lassoed region get selected rather than objects getting selected which are partially inside the selection window?

How can I change the brush settings to avoid the smudging of brushes at the bottom? Hard to describe but the way the line goes into a thick curvy part.
Easier to see what I mean from this picture, whilst im drawing it its ok, then it changes into smooth lines, even with no smoothing on? What can I do?
First image is complete, second whilst drawing: [URL] ....

There are many examples of creating rectangular patterns, but not many, if any, of interrogating existing patterns.I have attached the files and a screenshot of a rectangular part inside an assembly. The part contains a rectangular pattern of holes and workplanes.how do I get hold of each proxy of the workplane in the pattern?In other words I don't know what to put in the for loop at the end of this code fragment:
If _invApp.Documents.Count = 0 Then MsgBox("Need to open an the assembly document") ReturnEnd If If _invApp.ActiveDocument.DocumentType <> DocumentTypeEnum.kAssemblyDocumentObject Then MsgBox("Need to have an Assembly document active") ReturnEnd If Dim asmDoc As Assembly Document asmDoc = _invApp.ActiveDocument Dim asmDef As AssemblyComponentDefinition asmDef = asmDoc.ComponentDefinition im occurrences As ComponentOccurrencesoccurrences.
[code]....

I s there an efficient way of stretching an object. Usually I drag my mouse from right to left, thereby selecting objects that my selection box just touches. I want to drag my mouse from left to right so that only the vertices which are inside my selection box get selected.

Why does making a selection inside of a smart object (say with the rectangular marquis tool) disable Free Transform?

Right after one makes a selection, say by using the Rectangle SelectTool, is presented with handles that allow altering the selection.
If one then selects another tool without deselecting is being deprivedof these handles while the selection remains active thus rendering himunable to alter the selection in that fashion.
Thus forming my question: is there a way to make these handles to(re-)appear on a non-freshly created selection?

I am trying to create a selection set (or LIST) of all objects inside a unnamed GROUP.
I found a means to access the unnamed group, however I am having trouble creating the list.
Command: (entget (cdr (assoc 350 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP"))))((-1 . <Entity name: 7efe6280>) (0 . "GROUP") (5 . "130") (102 . "{ACAD_REACTORS")(330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (102 . "}") (330 . <Entity name: 7efe5c68>) (100 . "AcDbGroup") (300 . "") (70 . 1) (71 . 1) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6268>) (340 . <Entity name: 7efe6260>))
In the example above, there are 2 entities in the group.
What I want to do is to remove a certain entity from the GROUP, then delete the entity.
Repeat until all entities of that type are removed (I can figure this part out...).
How do I create a Selection Set (or LIST) of all entities inside a GROUP?
To access the first GROUP name in the dictionary:
(cdr (assoc 3 (dictsearch (namedobjdict) "ACAD_GROUP")))

I know how to blend selection edges of a selection in Gimp 2.8.2, but if I have only one side of a selection that needs blending, what should I do?
Lets say that I have a grey box on a black background and only want to blend the left vertical edge into the background.

How do you take an image, and set another image inside of it. Using a gradual blending transformation, where you are able to see the main image, with a gradual transformation to the image you placed inside.

I want to write my text inside two circles in GIMP. For this purpose, I have drawn two circles in GIMP with a gap between these two. Now I need to write my name in between these two..just like a round Rubber Stamp and I need to write something in the mid space of the two circles. Background should be white.
I have drawn the circle but I am not finding a way to write text in between the circumference of these two circles.

Okay I have been a avid user of Photoshop for years and I mean well over 10 years now. And I thought why not try something new, plus I saw something that GIMP could do that Photoshop couldn't so I went ahead a downloaded the program, but since I am so used to Photoshop I sort of expected GIMP to be almost the same as Photoshop and well it isn't. (Don't judge me now) so I have a few questions on certain things.
1: How do you select an object inside the layer, with PS you can just ctrl click in the window and poof it's there around your selected item, But GIMP doesn't do that so how do you do that in GIMP?
2: When using the circle tool, I get this green box thing around the whatever it's called and I don't see any marching ants. What am I doing wrong and how do I get that to go away if it's possible?
3: where is the crop tool? What does it look like?
4: How come some of the options for the brushes won't allow you the change them? like for instance, if I go to windows>brushes and double click on any of the brushes another window pops open and it says: Brush editor read only. What does that mean? You can't make any of the brushes in spatter brushes?

I have some images, this image contain a real picture of house from outside with a wall in front. I want to wrtite a word in that wall in a way that people will see this picture will think that the word is wrotten to wall of house and not guess that it is made by a software.
Also, suppose that there is already a word written in the wall, is it possible to replace that word with some other word, in a way that people will not guess it is made by a software.

I really enjoy this new draw inside feature in Illustrator. But, I find that it does not always work. It seems to be grayed out sometimes. For example, I have drawn a shape with my Wacom tablet using a blush. I then converted it to a shape instead of keeping it a stroke by expanding it. But it will not allow me to now draw inside of it, even though it is a shape.

I have a really large sphere and have put a camera on the inside to see the inside surface. I have used the normal modifier to flip the normals and so have the skin on the inside. Something is going very wrong at this point because I have this ugly shadow line that I cannot get rid of and I also seem to not be able to light this interior, when I use an omni light it makes no difference. Where am I going wrong?

I have a drawing that is 720X596 px and I have used the rectangular tool and select - invert, cut out a 222X444 px part that I need to save as a jpeg. However, I can not figure out how to either : delete the 720X596 drawing to leave the 222X444 drawing: or, select the 222X444 drawing to save it.

I am used to making a selection of part of the image - then you see the marching ants around your selection. Now in Photoshop at this stage I just press Ctrl-j and the selection gets put into its own layer above the current one. How do i do this in Gimp? and can you set up a keyboard shortcut for it?

I've read that to "drop" a selection tool, you choose "Select" "None". But very often "None" is not available to select, so how do you get rid of the tool when it goes wherever you go, like a piece of chewing gum stuck to your shoe?
I've tried clicking it, double-clicking, clicking outside the image, pressing escape, it won't go away, so I have to close the image and start again.

That's the gif. In the upper right is the white corner I need to get rid of. It shows in every frame of the gif
I don't know where to begin. I've tried selecting it, and making it transparent, but that doesn't seem to have any affect, so I think it might be deep-set into the image in some way. It's not just white paint on top of the layer.

I've created an image and saved it. It's a photograph, with text over.
Now I want to tear the top right-hand corner.
I've done many "tears" successfully, but this one is defeating me.
I use the lassoo to select the part I want to tear, then click Edit Cut, Edit Paste, and it creates a new floating layer. When I anchor that layer, it merges itself back into the original image.
In previous attempts, when I have anchored the layer, it has remained separate from the original.
What am I doing wrong that it is merging itself into the original?
