The GNU Image Manipulation Program, commonly known by its acronym GIMP (/ ɡ ɪ m p / ⓘ GHIMP), is a free and open-source raster graphics editor [3] used for image manipulation (retouching) and image editing, free-form drawing, transcoding between different image file formats, and more specialized tasks.
XCF, short for eXperimental Computing Facility, [1] is the native image format of the GIMP image-editing program. It saves all of the data the program handles related to the image, including, among others, each layer, the current selection, channels, transparency, paths and guides.
This is the standard blend mode which uses the top layer alone, [3] without mixing its colors with the layer beneath it: [example needed] (,) =where a is the value of a color channel in the underlying layer, and b is that of the corresponding channel of the upper layer.
A layer is Editable when marked with red bold text in the layer list. When the name is shown in italics the layer is not Selectable. You can change the layer modes from the right-click context menu. When making edits to a layer it is advisable to uncheck both the Selectable and Editable modes for all the other layers.
In graphics software, layers are the different levels at which one can place an object or image file. In the program, layers can be stacked, merged, or defined when creating a digital image. Layers can be partially obscured allowing portions of images within a layer to be hidden or shown in a translucent manner within another image.
The selection may also be saved in what is known as an alpha channel. A popular way to create a composite image is to use transparent layers. The background image is used as the bottom layer, and the image with parts to be added are placed in a layer above that.
GTK (formerly GIMP ToolKit [2] and GTK+ [3]) is a free software cross-platform widget toolkit for creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs). [4] It is licensed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License, allowing both free and proprietary software to use it. It is one of the most popular toolkits for the Wayland and X11 windowing ...
