GIMP :: Select Partially Opaque Area

Jan 10, 2014

I have an image with just one color, black. But it has a shadow which is partially opaque. I want to select the shadow, so I can delete it. But when I use "select by color" it selects the whole image including the shadow. How do I just select the shadow? Or conversely, how do I just select the image?

GIMP :: Select Part Of Image And Copy It To Another Area

Dec 16, 2013

I've tried using GIMP many times, yet I've accomplished very little, given all of GIMP's functionality. For example:

If I want to select part of an image and copy it to another area or to a new image/layer, and also FEATHER the edges, here's how I'd do it in an old graphics app I often used years ago:

1. Select the area.2. Hold Ctrl while moving selection with Move tool.3. Use the slider to soften the edges to my liking.4. Press Enter to anchor selection. Done.

And there were sliders also for opacity and other things. So very SIMPLE because the prog. was designed very intuitively. How would I accomplish the same in GIMP? Well, most of the time, I WOULD ACCOMPLISH NOTHING! At best, I'd enter values into the box, not like the result, enter new values, repeat. And that's on a good day.

Somebody write a SCRIPT/PLUGIN that allows the use of sliders exactly as described above! I desperately want to be a HAPPY GIMP user, but I'm growing ever more hopeless. I don't want to turn on my older PC just to use a graphics app that actually lets me get things done.

GIMP :: Make White Behind 50% Opaque Color Transparent?

Jun 26, 2011

as you can see I was able to make the background transparent by 'select by color' + 'add alpha channel' + 'remove selected area' but I also need to remove the white behind the 50% opaque reddish orange flames as well, i cannot select the white by 'select by color' or 'magic wand select' or any of the selection tools because of the issues of the white / reddish orange mix of opacity, so I need removing this white behind the part opacity color.

GIMP :: How To Fix Partially Faded Photo

Jun 1, 2013

I'm working on old vacation photos from the '70s (back when I could afford to take vacations). I'm now working on the first of what will probably be several that are faded, but not over the entire image - just parts of it.

I'm doing free selecting and playing with Levels, Curves, and Color Balance, but nothing seems to be working well. I think this is because some colors have faded more than others so there are areas that look purple when they should be brown or a mixture of colors.

Here's an example (which I hope will actually show):   

It's not a very interesting photo but it's from my very first trip to Europe so I'd kind of like to make it prettier.

GIMP :: Partially Remove A Color?

Mar 25, 2012

Here's the picture: [URL]

What I want is to remove all the red stuff and text and be left only with the girl on a white background

I know how to remove all the stuff around the girl, because the background is white and that is simple (Select everything, replace with white, done).

My problem is with the huge "GE" over her hand, shoulder, and hair. How would I go about removing that red part and being left with a good-looking picture without the huge "GE"? I tried decomposing the (red) colors, selecting the red color and making it transparent, and many more things in the Colors drop-menu but I always ended up with some weird results far from what I have in mind. I also tried the Resynthesizer to smart fill but it filled with white

Put simply, is there a way to somewhat "pick" the colors that are "behind" the huge red GE and just remove the red component from them? I guess I could just delete the huge red GE and draw what's missing but I'm not so good at drawing and this picture is very well drawn and high quality and I know I couldn't match this.

GIMP :: Color History Box Partially Filled

Nov 16, 2013

I've noticed that when I use the color picker and then go to the color selection menu, sometimes the color shows up in the color history as only filling the upper left diagonal of the box and the lower right diagonal appears to be transparent.

why this happens and whether I can/should convert the color to filling the entire history box?

GIMP :: Remove Partially Transparent Foreground Objects?

May 3, 2012

Basically, I am working on this pause screen pic from Mass Effect 3. I am trying to turn it into a good background for my phone. I'm trying to do a number of things with it, some of which are proving easier than others. The most difficult thing I want to do is remove all the buttons from the right hand side, so there are five buttons on the left and just background on the right.

How would be best to go about this? I have tried selecting individual sections and painting over them with a gradient fill, and I've tried using an automatic resynthesizer plugin using a selected texture, but neither have yielded good results. The former becomes obvious due to its uniformity when done in large doses and the latter just comes out all wrong.

Paint.NET :: How To Select Area And Transparent Color

Jan 11, 2013

A year ago I used Paint.Net for a map. I remember that I could select a freeform area by just clicking several dotted/dashed flickering points around the border so the lines were straight afterwards, when the dots were connected again. After that I could fill this area up with a transparant coulour. Now, off course, I can't seem to find how I did it.

Photoshop :: Selecting Outside Of Masked Area To Select Layer?

Feb 13, 2013

When I have a masked layer and try to drag-select other items on other layers outside of it, it still gets selected if the image area happens to be located within the selection range. Or in other words: why would anything outside of the masked area get selected at all, when the point of a mask in not just to hide what's outside, but also to 'deactivate' it,so that the masked area is all we are working with. This didn't happen before, may be those were older versions of photoshop.

Photoshop :: CMD / Mouse Drag To Select All Layers That Are Within Area

Jun 24, 2013

In previous versions of PS you used to be able to press CMD (i'm mac based) and drag the mouse to select all the layers that are within the area you drag to.
 
This is great for sorting out files, grouping layers etc as you can lock/hide layers as you go. Problem now is that in Photoshop CC it also selects locked and invisible layers - which didn't use to happen so actually its completely ruined this method.

Photoshop :: Select A Circular Shape And Delete Area Outside Of It

May 8, 2006

I need to place a circle selection around a ring shape in a gif graphic and then delete the background outside of the ring shape. The gif I am working with is a square shape with a green background and on that is a white circle shape with lettering going around it and a small pic inside the circle shape. I want to only use the white circle shape with the text going around it and the pic inside and discard the green square background appearing outside the ring.
