  • HELP. the feather option doesn't work, what do i do?

    i select the object i wanna feather then select -> feather

    but it doesn't work, am i doing anything wrong?

    please help

  • @TheGoldenlegend1 Just watch again and make sure you didn't miss a step by watching the video again.

  • voor lijnen kun je ook de selectiebewerker gebruiken dan hoef je ook geen pad aan te maken

  • @Drmx94

    Probeer het eens beide met ronde lijnen en kijk dan naar het resultaat. Of kijk even naar mijn video: "Stroke the path, not the selection."

  • Thank you, but I have a question. Why do you use "save to channel", what is it good for? It could have been done with "save to path" too. I understand what a path is, but the advantages of a "channel selection" are not clear.

  • @jabuci p.s. It seems like you want to know all the ins and outs of GIMP. Can I suggest a few book to you? Grokking the GIMP can be read for free online and Akkana Peck- Beginning GIMP from Novice to Professional is very good too, and more up to date.

see all
