Regardless there is still Inkscape and the forced change is allowing me to learn more about its features. I will return to GIMP at some point in the future when the feature I use is up and running again or I get another machine to install 2.6 on. I posted the original message to let it be known that while, for some, it might be suitable to let a small feature of the program break down, others like myself use it on a regular basis even if it is for something as unexciting as creating advertising for a small business. I posted a full description of the problem in the appropriate areas however screen shots depicting the problem were not allowed to be uploaded due to site rules (karma, points, status, etc). And, yes, I realise I that I didn't pay anything for it. Just a bit disappointed with the product. So as the above shows the bug is known and will be fixed but no known release date.Īs I said previously, I'm sure it would be fine if I reinstalled GIMP 2.6 but for my lack of persistence and knowledge with Linux that isn't happening right now. The fix will be in 2.8.4, which will be released when it will be released :)
Comment #15 from Michael Natterer 22:28:24 UTC. Here is the reply about the bug in the "Text to Path" issue in gimp 2.8.2 Hence what you should be (personally?) notified about. I'm afraid I don't know what "hole" is supposed to be "patched" and You spent an awful lot of time writing an email that was supposed toīe about text on path in 2.8.2, but somehow you never actuallyĮxplained what it is that is wrong with text on path.

I generally pick things up as I need them It was updated for GIMP 2.0 by Raphal Quinet. Click on the Paths tab to manage your paths. The default GIMP installation creates a dock containing the tabs Layers, Channels, Paths, Undo. I have used it for over five years now and haveĮnjoyed learning how to use it. When you are satisfied with the shape, you can use Stroke Path or Create Selection from Path. One of GIMP's strengths is its free availability from many sources for many operating systems.GIMP is a great product.
The advanced scripting interface allows everything from the simplest task to the most complex image manipulation procedures to be easily scripted. GIMP is amazingly expandable and extensible – it is designed to be augmented with plug-ins and extensions to do just about anything. It can be used as a simple paint program, an expert quality photo retouching program, an online batch processing system, a mass production image renderer, an image format converter, and so much more. Like Photoshop, GIMP is suitable for a variety of image manipulation tasks, including photo retouching, image composition, image construction, and has many other capabilities. GIMP is a digital photo manipulation tool for Windows (and many other platforms) that’s considered to be the open source (free) answer to Adobe Photoshop.
