CorelDRAW X6 :: Alignment Guides Doesn't Match With Guidelines And With Dynamic Guides?

May 27, 2013

What I mean:

Draw an ellipse. Skew it with mouse.

Draw a rectangle to allign with ellipse's outer dimension by Alignment Guides (not by Align and Distribute command). 

Now the aligned side of the Rectangle must be tangent to the ellipse BUT it's not! To verify, try to search an intersection point. Draw a Guideline and snap it to the rectangle's aligned side. It must be intersection point between Guideline and Ellipse but there isn't...

Photoshop :: Accurate Placement Of Guides [View>New Guides]

Feb 13, 2008

I have a number of vertical and horizontal guides to be placed, at different points. Is there a better way of placement rather than zooming up on the ruler area, watching the Nav coordinates and dragging and dropping? I'm really looking for a method which will I can key in the actual placement coordinates in some way, and the guide will jump to this point?

How to create my own cropping guides in GIMP, is this possible? The guide shows a central cross, or a thirds, or a golden thirds, over the selection that is being cropped.

GIMP :: Disable Rotation Guides In 2.8?

Jun 30, 2012

I normally edit with the grid turned on. The rotation guides that show up while using the arbitrary rotation tool clash pretty badly with the grid and disrupt my workflow. Is there a way to turn them off?

GIMP :: Stop Snapping To The Guides?

Oct 1, 2013

I don't want my images to default to "snap to guides." I have guides up on most of my files because I use them for spacing my comic; I work from a template so I can have consistent sizing. But I only rarely ever want to snap to those guides.

Yes, I can turn off the snapping, but I have to do this EVERY F***ING TIME. Open a file I've been working on already? Gotta disable the snapping. Open a new file? Gotta disable the snapping. Restarting GIMP because it just crashed? Gotta disable the snapping. Every freaking time for each freaking image. Gimp won't save the setting to the file nor to my preferred settings.

How can I get GIMP to stop setting the guides to snap by default?

GIMP :: How To Open XCF File

Jan 23, 2013

I will do absolutely ANYTHING to restore this picture. I've been working on it for hours. I thought I learned my lesson from working for hours and not saving, but apparently my lesson might now be to save in 8 places while working.

I was working on a drawing, saving as I went, and my laptop shut off unexpected as I was saving. I thought it saved before it shut off, but when I came back on, it wouldn't open the xcf file. The preview still shows up, and the file is still 1.37MB. Is there ANY way of redeeming my drawing? Any other programs I could open it in or way to fix it?

GIMP :: Crashes Every Time Try To Open A File?

Sep 4, 2013

I am running 2.8 with Windows 7 64 bit. This just started today. I had done a picture, then closed out gimp. When I reopened it, I could no longer open files in Gimp. I can start gimp, then click on open files, and scroll through the files, and as soon as I select one, it whites out and says Gimp has stopped responding. I uninstalled and reinstalled the program, same issue. I tried jpeg, png, and xfc files, none will load.

GIMP :: 2.8 Hangs On File Open Dialogue

Dec 7, 2013

Windows 7 64 bit user.

Upgraded to 2.8 with total deletion of the Gimp folder to try to address this.

File / Open Recent works fine.

File / New etc same all good...

File / Open has a problem.

Once that window opens the product is hung.

There is no window to type the file name in, and I cannot click on any of the disk drive names.

I must admit that I have a good number of network and usb as well as physical drives. I do not think that any have changed names, but it seems clear that something like a path change is responsible?

How to repair a stuck File/Open dialogue.

GIMP :: Move A Text Layer From One Open File To Another

Mar 7, 2013

I am trying to move a text layer from one open file to another. I left-click on a text layer in one file and drag it to the tab of the other file. It seems to be successful, but there is no layer added to the other file.

If I try copy and paste then there will be another layer in the other file that I have to anchor or set as a new layer. If I anchor it then it becomes a part of the default layer. If I set it as a new layer then there is some sort of success, but I can’t edit it with the text tool as I can if I copy it within the same file.

Is it not possible to copy text layers between open files and continue to edit it with the text tool?

GIMP :: Open AI File Not Loading Full Image

Apr 5, 2012

I am trying to open an .AI file, and am having almost success. Instead of loading the whole image, it cuts off about 50% of the image, leaving just the center. I altered the rendering width and height in the Import from PostScript window and it successfully extended the image to include the right side, but the left is still truncated. How can I get this whole image to open?

I can resort to just mirroring the left and right sides to fill in the blanks, but I would really rather not do that if it is possible.

I am running Windows 7 64-bit, with Gimp ver 2.6.11

GIMP :: Windows 2.6.11 File / Open TIFF And JPEG Not An Option

Mar 24, 2012

I have installed both version 2.6.11 and also version 2.4.7 of the Windows version of Gimp that I have downloaded from here [URL]

When I launch Gimp, and select File / Open from the main menu, neither TIF/TIFF nor JPG/JPEG files are listed when "All Images" is selected in the file type drop-down listbox. If I select "All Files", and then select either a TIFF or JPEG file, then an error message appears stating "Unknown file type". The specific types listed in the file type drop down list box include:

GIMP XCF image (*.xcf)
bzip archive (*.xcf.bz2, *.bz2, *.xcfbz2)
Dexktop Link (*.desktop)
G3 fax image (*.g3)
GIF image (*.gif)
gzip archive (*.xcf.gz, *.gz, *.xcfgz)
Photoshop image (*.psd)

I have read here: [URL] that, "Some of the file types, such as JPEG and TIFF, require extra libraries (described elsewhere)." I have no idea where "elsewhere" is.

I have completely uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled both version 2.6.11 and 2.4.7 with the exact same results each time. The program otherwise works as advertized, with no errors or problems that I am aware of.

Am I missing something here? All indications are that GIMP (Even the Windows version) natively supports TIFF / TIF and JPEG / JPG files, but that is certainly not my experience!

I am specifically interested in opening TIFF / TIF files.

GIMP :: (too Many Open Files) Error When Saving Or Open

May 6, 2013

I'm using Gimp 2.8.4 on a MacBook Pro.

I have been working on an image file for several hours now, and as a result, there were MANY files open (probably over 30).

I attempted to save the file, and recieved the following error message:

"Could not read the contents of [folder name] Too many open files"

I then closed each of the open files except the file I was trying to save, but got the same results.

The same error message pops up when I try to open a file as well.

GIMP :: Open First Image And Then Open Other Two As Layers

Jan 23, 2014

I'm using Gimp 2.8.6.Try as I might, I'm still trying to figure out how to effectively 'merge' 3 shots of the same scene taken at 3 different exposures (using the exposure bracketing feature on my camera).The idea is to end up with the equivalent of an HDR image.

I assume that I open the first image and then open the other two as layers . .

Illustrator :: How To Open Files As Layers In Open File

Mar 1, 2013

I'm working with both Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 on a mac. I'm creating a graphic. The background is a (cartoonish) mouth and I finished it a couple of days ago. (It's an Illustrator file.) I've been working on the letters to go inside of the mouth, (Once I'm finished it'll look as though they're being crushed.) I scanned and edited small wooden letters in Photoshop, and now I would like to work with them with the background in Illustrator. I understand how to open a Photoshop file in Illustrator, but I don't want to open the document as a separate Illustrator file. Is there a way to open a file from Photoshop as a second layer?
 
Some of the letters repeat as well. Will I have to create two files for this, or can I open the same file twice?
