Hi friends,
I think I make
mistakes in using the bucket-fill -
option of GIMP.
I want to use it
for colouring (don't grin - by different
shades of grey 5-10%)
to make in
black-and-white maps details like lakes or
defined areas better visible.
I tried it as
follows:
I choose the layer
where to use the fill in, choose
the colour and click to the area,
but the whole layer
is coloured. I searched for help
via the GIMP website, but I
was not successful
following the advices.
So at the moment I
use the fill-in-option of
Photoshop 6, but that's much too
complicated: Export
from GIMP to tiff, import to
Photoshop, fill-in, save as
tiff, re-import to
GIMP as a new layer.
My file is about
1,3 GB (!) with 57 layers and
Photoshop 6 is not able to work
with any file as
big.
I appreciate yor
help!
Konrad
