GIMP :: Tool Options Values Missing
May 12, 2013When 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.

Well my problem is that the toolbar that comes up when you press on (example paintbrush tool or type text tool), you know that stripe above evreything where you can can select font and font size and brush size and that stuffs, well that stripe is gone.
I have selected Window and then toolbar but the problem is that I must have pull that thing away from the window and so know I relly don't know where that stripe is. (The stripe is where you can select font or font size, brush or brush size. I call it the stripe ) Well I am getting so crazy because I doon't know how to get that thing back?
I cannot seem to find the clone tool options in the EDIT TAB. I have used PSP from version 7 through version X2. Normally when you click on the clone tool a series of options appear in the upper left hand corner near the pull down menus. One of the options is the ability to adjsut the size of the clone tool. These tool adjustment options are missing in version X4. Interestingly, the tool options are available in the Adjust tab.

The options were in the Property Bar and one was to set the sharp tip option and the other was to set the round tip option. I'm using v6.2 but they are not there when I select either tool.Also, I have to drag very slowly or it doesn't push or pull the edge.

Do I have to enable this option elsewhere?
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).

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.
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.
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.

I clicked it off and brought it back (via windows, etc.) but it's still grey and nonfunctioning.

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 4 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.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am missing a crop tool which can rotate the crop rectangle. Similar to photoshop's tool. I found no way to rotate the crop rectangle in gimp. How do you cut out something from an image if it needs to be rotated while cropping? I tried rotating first then cropping but it does not give me enough precision so I end up with transparent areas at the border.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have installed the Corporate and Education version of VideoStudio Pro X3 on 20 computers in a lab at a small high school where this product represents a significant portion of our software budget. In the documentation, I see options like "Easy Edit" and "Burn" on the startup screen, however my startup screen only has the options of "Advanced Edit" and "DV-to-DVD Wizard". At every turn, where an option to burn a DVD should be present, buttons are missing. I have uninstalled/reinstalled a hundred times looking over every option, and I can't find anything that is unchecked. Do you know why VS Pro X3 has no Burning capabilities for me?

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded from VS9 to X2. When I "Create Video File," the audio format options I have are:
PCM
IMA ADPCM
CCITT A-Law
CCITT u-Law
GSM 6.10
Microsoft ADPCM
I seem to recall having more options than this with VS9, but I'm not sure if it's a VS issue or something that needs to be installed on my computer. I also have a new computer, so I don't have all the codecs and audio encoders that I had previously collected over time on my old computer. For example, I used to encode videos for youtube using Xvid. I always had the option for mp3 audio. Now, I only have the above options. I don't even know what most of those are.
Are there some plug-ins that I need to install?
Also, is there a manual that I can download somewhere? I didn't see anything in the install folder, the support area of Corel's site
I have CS3, when I do save as, only about six options are avialable (tif, pdf, and a few others). Jpegs, Gifs, etc are all gone. Is there some setting I've inadvertantly chosen or reason I can't save as jpeg?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have recently upgraded from VideoStudio 12 to Pro X4, and have noticed that I don't have all of the Video Save Options (specifically Media type and Audio format) that I have with 12.
I produce video for playback by a regional local access provider, and their requirements are mpeg-2 video with mpeg layer 2 audio. Both of these are options that are available in 12 but not X4. I understand that NTSC DVD video is mpeg-2, but I'm still at a loss with the audio format.
Here is a screenshot of the video/audio format I need to be able to produce:
In PSP X2, the menu options went suddenly missing.
I can see the Menu Bar (File, View, Effects, etc.). However, when I click on, say, File, I can see the drop-down options, but none of the options expand into their sub-menus. All I see is a grey box where the options should be.
I just now was able to reinstall PSP X2 after many months of problems due to the usual "illegally modified" message. It's very frustrating to say the least.
