![]() To fix this, adjust the purple box so it’s the same length as the box below it: You’ll notice when you add the text layer that the purple box for said layer is longer than the one for the gif, meaning that you’ll have a white gap at the end of the gif with only the text. Select all your layers in the layers panel (shift + click), click on the menu button to the top right, and hit “Convert to Smart Object“.Īll those individual layers will condense down into one smart layer, which you can now edit like you would anything else. To fix this, click on the menu button to the top right and select “Timeline Frame Rate“, then set the number to whatever looks best.) (Note: For some reason this seems to affect the speed of the gif on occasion because Photoshop isn’t that smart. Don’t worry about literally any of this, just preview and save your super snazzy gif again. This is going to make everything horizontally oriented and in little purple rounded rectangles. Pull up the timeline (Window –> Timeline if you don’t have it open already for some reason) and click on this little “Convert to video timeline” button on the bottom right-hand corner: Get your gif cropped and set the speed and make it all nice and prepared and all that jazz. Okay so first off I’m gonna assume you know how to make gifs already if you’re reading this. Thankfully I just discovered this super neat thing and I’m gonna share it with all of you because you’re all wonderful (and probably not Hitler.) This is where a recursive procedure will be more useful than iterative loops, so stay tuned for an additional update.So duplicating and merging layers for 2+ hours is honestly awful and no one should have to experience it (except maybe like… Hitler). The code just above only gets into the first level of groups, and won't affect any layer in a deeply nested group structure. Yes, still not quite there - if you have nested layer groups. # you want a group.name check here to pick a specific group layers if pdb.gimp_item_is_group(group)]: So instead of complicating our current loop with additional if statements, we can do this: pdb.gimp_image_undo_group_start(gimp.image_list())įor group in. Python has nifty way for filtering lists (and is one) by an arbitrary boolean filter-expression, and we got one of those, see above. So while iterating, we could check if the current item is a group, and start iterating over its children. We can tell whether a layer we encounter in that for loop is a layer group - pdb.gimp_item_is_group(layer) will return true for those. If your image uses layer groups, you will notice that the above code will make any layer not in a group and the groups themselves visible, but it won't affect any layer in a group. The loop is wrapped into an undo group, allowing for easy undo of all visiblity changes in one single step. The code's main part is a loop over all layers of the image, setting them to visible. Pdb.gimp_image_undo_group_end(gimp.image_list()) Assuming the image is the only one you're working on, the following code sets all of its layers to be visible: pdb.gimp_image_undo_group_start(gimp.image_list())įor layer in gimp.image_list().layers: I'd suggest to use the Python console in GIMP, Filters->Python-Fu->Console. this is Stack Overflow, so we need to do this in code. To get back to the previous state, I'd use File->Revert, this discards any changes and reloads the file from disk make all other layers invisible by the first click, and visible by the next click.make the layer you are clicking visible. ![]() Shift+Click on the eye icon (eycon?) of a layer in the layers dialog, or the place where it should be, if the layer is currently invisible. ![]()
