00:21 | Welcome to Meet the GIMP tutorial on Setting up the Gimp. |
00:25 | Today I want to show how to set up the GIMP when you are using it for the first time. |
00:30 | The GIMP uses a lot of small windows instead of one big window like all the other Windows & Macintosh programs. |
00:39 | It’s a history from the Unix world and the Unix people love to have windows scattered all over the screen and to have lot of programs running at the same time. |
00:49 | If you are really not able to work with these different windows, then you should look at the GIMPshop. |
00:57 | It is a program which uses the GIMP and puts a new user interface on it to make it a bit similar to Photoshop. |
01:05 | I would like to use the GIMP because all the new and better tools are in the GIMP. |
01:12 | This is the tip of the day, which gives useful information and tips. |
01:17 | Right now, there is a tip about the Undo option, by which you can do some steps and then change them back with Undo. |
01:26 | It works most of the time. |
01:28 | Its better to save your work before you do something very different. |
01:33 | Now, lets have a look at the other tools. |
01:36 | Here’s the main window from the GIMP, the Command Central. |
01:41 | And at the top here, is the Toolbox. |
01:45 | Then we have the Color box to select colours from and below are the various options of our tools from Toolbox. |
01:53 | Let’s make this a bit wider. |
01:56 | Here we have dialog boxes for Layers, Channels, Color Channels, Path and Undo History. |
02:09 | Below this is the Colour Selection dialog where you can select various colours. |
02:15 | There are more dialogs like Brushes, Patterns, Gradient and so on. |
02:21 | I want to include some of these dialogs into the Toolbox. It is very easy to do so. |
02:28 | Just click on the word Layers in the title of the dialog and pull it over to the word Color Picker here, below the toolbox. |
02:39 | And I get a tabbed dialog like this. |
02:43 | I'll do this with Channels. |
02:46 | I'll do this with Paths. |
02:52 | And I'll do this with Undo History. |
02:54 | I don’t think I need the Brushes tool because if a tool has a brush then it appears here and I can select it. |
03:09 | But I want to have Colours so I click on it and drag it next to Undo History. |
03:16 | And this window here can be closed. |
03:23 | I can access all the dialog boxes through File >> Dialogs. |
03:30 | You can see here there are some dialogs that are not in our Toolbox and we need one of them i.e. Tools. |
03:38 | My tool box contains some tools which I have never used and I want to replace them with the tools that I want to use. |
03:48 | Let’s start with the tools which I want to have. |
03:51 | I want to have Curves, Levels, Threshold. Brightness & Contrast - I don't want to choose. |
03:58 | I don’t need Perspective Clone nor do I need Ink or Airbrush. |
04:05 | And I need all the remaining tools. |
04:08 | I will have a look at this later after I see how much space is left. |
04:16 | Now I go to File and Preferences. |
04:26 | I leave Environment as it is and Interface also. |
04:32 | In Theme, I select Small. |
04:35 | And when I pull this window aside, you see all the icons have shrunk and there’s more space available for information of tools. |
04:45 | Go to Tool options and change Default Interpolation to SINC , it’s the best interpolation for calculating pixels while resizing or rotating and so on. |
05:00 | Leave all the other options as they are. |
05:03 | Go to Toolbox and either select if you want to have these options or de-select them. |
05:12 | You can have Colors which is a quick way to change the Foreground and Background colours. |
05:19 | You can get the Brush and the Gradient tools, here you can have a small image or the thumbnail of the active image. |
05:29 | I don’t need it so I de-select it. Its up to you if you want to have it or not. |
05:36 | You can leave the Default image, Default grid and Default image window as they are. |
05:42 | I am done with all the Preferences. |
05:45 | And |
05:47 | I haven’t changed the Path so I can use this here. |
05:52 | Now I have to get rid of only one tool here to get some more space. But first I’ll make this a bit wider. |
06:01 | You can see that the Toolbox dialog is quite cramped. |
06:06 | Just pull it over here. |
06:08 | I think I can add 3 more tools without getting into a new row here. |
06:19 | So I will add Brightness, Hue-Saturation and Color Balance |
06:24 | All the tools which are not displayed here can be reached by clicking on File and Dialogs. |
06:39 | And now we are set to do our work. |
06:42 | When you close the GIMP, all the options are automatically saved and it will start up in the same way in which you had closed it. |
06:52 | And by the way, I am using the development version, the unstable version of GIMP 2.3.18 |
07:02 | I just saw that 2.3.19 was released today. |
07:07 | It is called 'unstable' but the GIMP is reaching a point where 2.4 is the next stable version on the horizon and this year it is stable as any other software in the market. |
07:22 | That was it for setting up the GIMP. |
07:25 | This is Hemant Waidande dubbing for the Spoken Tutorial project. |
