Re: [Gimp-developer] Usuage of the Gimp for my Organization

3 Single row Marquee tool
4 Single coloumn marquee tool
-Draw a rectangle selection across the canvas from end to end where you
want the 1px selection.
-In the rectangle select dialogue, scroll down to the "size" and enter "1"
for the width or height

5 Polygonal lasso tool
-The default mode for the lasso tool in GIMP is polygon. Click and drag for
mouse mode.
-Morover notice you can move points you have already put down simply by
dragging them where you want them (better than Photoshop in this way).

6 Magenetic lasso tool
- Try the Scissors Select tool.

7 Quick Selection tool
- Try the Foreground Selection Tool

11 Perspective crop tool
- Select area to be cropped with lasso tool
- Image > Crop to Selection
- Use Perspective Tool to adjust

13 Color Sampler tool
- Windows > Dockable Dialogues > Colors

14 Ruler tool
- Try the Measure tool.

15 Spot healing brush tool
- Try the Heal Tool.

13 Patch tool
- Filters > Enhance > Heal Selection

14 Content aware move tool
- make selection
- Copy selection
- Filters > Enhance > Heal Selection
- Paste selection ... (I have no idea why you'd need a separate tool for
this. ;P)

15 Red Eye tool
- Filters > Enhance > Red Eye Removal


18 Color replacement tool
- Use "Select by Color Tool"
- Colors > Color Balance / Hue Saturation / Etc.
- Additionally: Colors > Map > Color Exchange

19 Mixer Brush tool
- GIMP will acquire brushes that include background color mixing in the
2.9/3.0 release
- Check out Krita.org for an illustration program to rival Photoshop or
Painter X

21 Pattern stamp tool
  - Select Clone tool
  - Scroll down in tool settings to "Source", and choose "pattern"

22 History Brush tool
  - Open another copy of your current working document from your last save
point
  - select the Clone Tool
  - In your save point document, ctrl-click on the area to paint from
  - Switch back to your current document and paint as you like

23 Art History Brush tool
  - Not implemented, feel free. :)
  - Check out GMIC. It contains a wealth of interesting painting effects
for GIMP.

25 Background eraser tool
  - Can be achieved with resynthesize as above, but if you must have it in
an eraser tool form, feel free to implement.

26 Magic eraser tool
  - Fuzzy Select tool (Wand icon)
  - Layer > Mask > Add Layer Mask (check the "Selection" radio button and
the "Invert Mask" checkbox and Click "Add")

32 Dodge tool
33 Burn tool
  - Try the Dodge/Burn Tool. ;P

34 Sponge tool
  - Try the Blur/Sharpen Tool

36 Free form pen tool
  - Try the Ink Tool

37 Add anchor point tool
38 Delete anchor point tool
39 Convert point tool

  - All Integrated into the Paths Tool.
  - Check out my 30 second runthrough of the Paths Tool and related
functions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sgI8rCRLbQ

41 Vertical type tool
42 Horizontal type mask tool
43 Vertical type mask tool
  - Not implemented, these would be neat, but to be honest the Text tool
needs a serious overhaul anyway.
  - Check out Inkscape.org for vertical text, and a much better and more
versatile vector text system, and easy masks that don't need separate
tools. Turn any text into a mask in two clicks.

44 Path selection tool
45 Direct Selection tool
  - Windows > Dockable Dialogues > Paths
  - Click on the first empty box beside your path to show it. It's now
selectable with the Paths Tool.

46 Rectangle Tool
  - Feel free to impliment. This would be useful.
  - See Inkscape.org for a current solution that works great.

47 Rounded Rectangle tool
  - If you impliment this, please make it part of the rectangle tool. There
is no point at all to having separate tools. :P
  - Inkscape.org again :) It's like Adobe Illustrator.

48 Ellipse tool
  - Feel free to impliment
49 Polygon tool
  - Paths tool already does this. I don't know why Adobe made a separate
tool for this. It's unnecessary clutter. :)

50 Line tool
  - Paths tool... (hit b to end your line and start a new separate one)

51 Custom shape tool
  - Would be cool to see in GIMP
  - Check out the Polygon and Star Tool (Inkscape.org)

53 Rotate view tool
  - View > Rotate (also Ctrl + Shift + Middle Mouse Button)

58 Masking
  - Really? Gimp has more Masking options than the Carnival of Venice. ;P
  - Check out Quick Mask and Layer > Mask > Add Layer Mask
  - Also check out Mask to Selection, and Selction to Path.

59 Mode change in to CMYK
  - Feel free to try to impliment, but read this first:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/CMYK_support_in_The_GIMP
  - Check out Scribus for conversion into CMYK (FOGRA 27 is the default,
but you can add your own color profiles if that's not working for you)

Hope it helps. :)

GIMP is an open source software project, which means you are free to
modify it as you like and use it for any purpose in accordance with this
license http://www.gimp.org/about/COPYING



To modify GIMP, the easiest way is probably to download the source code
repositories from git:

https://git.gnome.org/browse/gimp



Other relevant developer information can be found here:

http://www.gimp.org/develop/



It might also be noted that GIMP is a very large and very complex program
with a LOT of features. Before you invest the time to modify anything, it's
probably a good idea to explore whether or not the changes you want to make
are necessary for your project. Often you can achieve what you need with
features that GIMP comes with, or by writing extensions rather than trying
to change GIMP's core code.



If the features that you want are not present you can always suggest them
to the community as well, some ideas are popular enough to make it into the
project.



Welcome to the GIMP community, and good luck. :)

Good luck. :)
