The picture I've attached to this post is 180 dpi.However, Gimp says the ppi of the image is 300 (Gimp also used this information display the printed size, so it should be "dpi", but this is not my problem).
I fully understand the difference between dpi and ppi.My question is: From where is this information coming from?
My default image resolution in Gimp is 96 ppi (under Preferences > Default image > Advanced option).
In the side and front view, the references are displayed in the wrong place on the screen. It is fine on the perspective view, but not side or front. The outline if I select the image is in the right place, but the image is not.
I've got a white UI button with 3D shading and transparency. The white button looks great. I want a red button, so I turned off the green and blue channels (and left on the red and alpha channels). The red button looks great.
A red button is being displayed under GIMP. When I save the red button as a PNG, the button saves as white rather than red. How to save/export to file using GIMP 2.6?
I tried to script a bit by copying existing codes i found.
I successfully wrote a script that add an outline to my picture, but the wierd thing is that this outline only appear when i actually click in the window (i select move, and click once).
Is there something to prevent this and display it right away?
I'm having problems with gimp 2.8 I've just installed on my new laptop. I'm an artist and use scanned images to colour in GIMP, and in version 2.6 these were displayed with the actual canvas size (A4) and scan resolution. I work with these images and often need to increase the canvas size. In 2.8 the scanned images are displaying with a canvas size around 5 times larger than A4 - I think this is because GIMP is saying the resolution is 72ppi, whereas I scan at 300-400 ppi. My finished jpeg files all display on 2.8 at larger canvas sizes aswell. how to get GIMP to recognize this automatically so that the actual canvas size is shown?
I'm trying to change the color palette of a sprite's gif in GIMP, but I can't get the bucket tool to put the right color in to each layer.
Here's a screenshot of the gif opened up in GIMP with only the first frame visible.
Next, I selected one of the colors in the frame.
Then, I clicked on the new foreground color and set the blue and green sliders to 0.
Then, I selected the Select By Color tool, and selected the area with the old color.
Last, I used the Bucket Fill tool (making sure that FG color fill and Fill whole selection were chosen on the left) to add the new color, but I got a completely different color in its place.
I just downloaded GIMP today, and I cannot make the painting tool () to give the correct colors. I tried adding a leather brown color and got a dark grey instead - the same if I use .
I tried changing the color to a pink, but all I got was a lighter shade of grey.
I accidentally moved the tool specifics out of the toolbox window on the left, and it says I can dock it back in, but I cannot figure out how ?
Whenever I open an image in Gimp, it's just a little off colour. Then when I save it as an image file (usually png), it's even more off colour than what's displayed in Gimp. For example, if the image starts out with a grey background of 808080 (RGB Hex Value, 16-bit), in Gimp it's 7F7F7F, and when I save as a png, it's 6E6E6E (honestly, how does that make sense under any circumstances?). I've tried every combination of settings under colour management, to no avail. Once, I managed to get Gimp to display the correct colour, but when I saved it as a gimp file, and re-opened it, it was wrong again.
I've been using 2.6 and created a template for multiple business cards on a standard 8.5 by 11 sheet. [URL]
However the later versions ... 2.8 cause distortions when I try to print. ( Canon MG 2120) The standard 8.5 by 11 mysteriously converts to 7.997 by 10.349 inches .... and a weird 318.870 ppi appears. This obviously distorts my template and the 2 by 3.5 inch cards become odd sizes. When I open the template in 2.6, it works perfectly.
What has happened to the later version? i can't reset to inches and even using the 2559 by 3300 pixils with the 1050x600 card sizecan't be printed accurately So I'm now creating in 2.8 and opening in 2.6 to get my sizes correctly.
I love the expanded tools for drawing in the 2.8 ... but this feature is a nuisance ... along of course with the terrible sizing scale for the brushes. SO hard to calibrate the smaller and moe common sizes. Another bad feature.
Have I missed some adjustment somewhere. Using the same printer, same download gives two different prints sizes in 2.6 and 2.8.
I am trying to add text to a background for a poster with a photo. I can add type to the photo but when I type in the white background I only see a line that expands with each letter as I type but no text is visible. However in the layer panel the text is visible.
I have CS2 and my PS skills are pretty basic. I was trying to follow a DVD tutorial last night from the 'digital photo' UK photography magazine and at one point needed to have two windows displayed - one a new blank canvas and the other with the the photo that was being manipulated. However when I followed the instructions as shown on the DVD, my new blank canvas opened ontop.
I've just starting experiencing a tremendous slow-down in the viewport (Nitrous, Quadro 4000) . . . and discovered that the trajectory being displayed in the object properties is causing it. When I turn it off, everything runs as expected.
I have just installed Photoshop CS6 Extended from adobe.com as the trial, but after installing it I don't see the 3D menu at the top. I have tried reinstalling several times but still no 3D menu. I have a ASUS GTX550Ti graphics card with 1gb of ram so I thought this would be sufficient. Also running windows 7 64bit.
I finished my work on an image but when I save it and view it in windows photo viewer the image is much much sharper than inside photoshop( at 100%). (using CS6 on windows 7)
When I open adobe photoshop I get the attached error. Either I'm able to work or close it.
I tried repairing it didn't work. After repairing all the adobe family products gave me the same problem I tried uninstall and the reinstall same problem with all the adobe family products.
Is it possible to see in Videostudio X6 the screen size like it would be displayed on tv? In X6 for example edited a video and saved it in Divx (6)- 704 * 398 its 1.7.
In VIdeostudio it is displayed full screen no black borders but on the tv there are borders top and bottom. Some have borders left and ride. Normally my tv fits every video to full screen so no black borders are displayed only when the movie has a 2:35 format.
When i set the video properties for the project in X6 in non square pixels then 2 black borders are displayed in the preview screen but they are on that video left and right not top and bottom.
I would like to know to avoid the black borders and display full screen on tv but if that is not possible with the formats of the video then displayed in Videostudio as it would on my widescreen tv.
I have learned that if i do a math on the video size like: 704 / 398 = 1.7 then i can see that the video is full screen on the tv .
When the outcomr of the math is 1.3 or 1.4 then it is a 4:3 video so not displaying full screen i thought to learn.
I've been running both AutoCAD 2009 and 2010 for the last year almost - and I had noticed that the linetypes (specifically HIDDEN) are displayed differently in each version. The linetypes are not symmetrical in 2010.
I'm sculpting a portrait work and after generating the displacement map, the map itself automatically is displayed in the model. This is actually the second time I'm experienced this.
How can I disable this auto function without having to turn off the layer in the layer tab each and everytime mudbox generates the displacement map.
somehow i have changed how the ribbon buttons are displayed. instead of being expanded and showing all the commands on the button, it only shows the button tittle. one of then shows "DRAW" . when i click on it, it shows all the sub commands. how do i get it to expand and show all the subcommands without clicking on it. it was showing them before, however, i changed a setting and cannot find it.
I have some not displayed viewports in my drawing. I can select only the viewport while using filter command in autocad dwg. Also i couldn't able to see those viewport normally while command inactive. Actually i want to delete those viewport which is only one per layout. that one drawing having 100 layout.
Using CS6 just installed on a Dell running Windows 7. I have placed a few EPS graphics and find that some of the image is not visible. I noted this a few weeks back on prior use on a different computer running a version of MacOS. A third at that time did display these image files completely. I believe that was CS4 but will check on Monday. I will test with other EPS files from other programs.
I can create an Event in Photoshop Element's Organizer, but the Event does not show up in the Event tab. I can see a small tag on the video file that I put into the Event when I created it, but no such Event is listed in the Event tab.
This function used to work for me, but it suddently stopped.
How can I define my own set of metadata to be displayed in the metadata panel. I don't mean metadata sets to be applied to images. I mean the groups of metadata fields that will be displayed in the right hand panel.
LR came with some like QuickDescribe, Minimal, Default....
