It would mean keeping an .xcf file, making the change there, then flattening the image and saving as jpg. [16:59] In .xcf format, the text can be changed simply by double clicking on it. But it's still a process. [17:00] (if you save as jpg, you wont need to flatten the image) [17:01] should do it automatically.. same applies for PNG and other raster formats [17:02] Yep. But flattened, the text becomes part of the image. That's why one uses layers and xcf. [17:02] ofcourse [17:03] I've been doing this sort of stuff for years. Worse, I've been doing it in AutoCAD, then switching off and on layers depending on what I needed. [17:03] ah bragging now i see [17:04] It's really a trip when you 3D the ground around a factory, then use layers to show the original and the developed versions of the plot plan. Even more so when you develop 3 or 4 different solutions for the developed plot plan. About 30 meg worth of drawing file. [17:05] bet they apprieciated that [17:05] tyche_: you seem to be beside yourself [17:05] I used to drive the boss crazy with the fact that I could just switch a couple of layers and show him a topological map of what the changes would look like. [17:06] hee hee [17:06] :D [17:07] That particular boss was in charge of the plants and grounds, so I ended up doing the same sort of thing for the batch plant (where the concrete was mixed and poured from) [17:07] it seems like you enjoyed the work you did with that job [17:07] He could look at it from any angle, I could switch off the skin, so he could see the inside of the tower, including the mixer, fans, etc. [17:08] Yep. I did. It was a challenge, and definitely stretched my abilities. [17:08] that's always a good thing [17:08] Saved his butt a few times, too, when he'd come up with an idea and I could show him, in 3D, why it wouldn't work. [17:09] and it's always fun to annoy a boss by doing something better than he/she can [17:09] hee hee [17:09] i bet he apprieciated that [17:10] :) [17:10] It got to the point where he'd actually start asking my opinion about how to make things work. [17:10] And THAT was good. [17:10] usually that's a possition that would get you better pay but i bet you got paid the same [17:11] When I left that job I was $1 over the national "BASE" pay for that position. I got a $5 raise just coming out to Arizona [17:12] well that must have been nice [17:12] And that was as a temp. I got another $1 raise when I went permanent. [17:13] yeah i've tried a couple of temp agencies and one flat out told me not to come in because they had no possitions for me and didnt expect to get any soon === nizarus_ is now known as nizarus === tyche_ is now known as tyche
