Hello all,

I installed gimp 1.2.4 this morning to check it out. I traditionally use Photoshop to produce textures for games.

Gimp seems to have almost everything I need however I couldn't find a function similar to the Photoshop "offset" function. Is there and equivalent function in Gimp or perhaps a script that does the same thing?

2 easy.. thanks Thomas.

I have 3 new questions that have popped up in the last few miniatures.. Hope you guys don't mind.

1. Can you bind a keyboard shortcut to change the opacity of my brush.

2. Can you set the cursor of a tool to show the size of the currently select brush?

3. Is anybody out there exporting dtx textures from gimp, is it possible to get it to use the Photoshop exporter "dds.8bi"

right click on the image, and go to:

Image -> Transforms -> Offset

the default shortcut key is:

CTRL + SHIFT + O

HTH!

hmm, don't know.. followed the links to a windows install and that's what I found...

http://www.gimp.org/download.html --> http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/ --> http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/

Is there much difference, should I track down 1.2.5?

Why do you install 1.2.4 even though 1.2.5 has been released already?
