Type: By default Gimp has a checker bord pattern built up of mid tone gray
|
|
|
|
|
checks. You can however change that in the drop down menu. NOTE: That white,
|
|
|
|
|
black and gray only checks disables checks and the transparency will be shown
|
|
|
|
|
as a solid black, white or gray color.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
Check Size: The size of the checkers in the pattern that indicates transparency.
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: If you have set the checker type to white, gray or black only then
|
|
|
|
|
then the size will have no effect what so ever.

<P>
|
|
|
|
|
When you scale a image (make it bigger) you have to fill in missing pixels
|
|
|
|
|
what color and value that those pixels should have is calculated in a
|
|
|
|
|
interpolation algorithm . Gimp uses a Linear interpolation algorithm by default.
|
|
|
|
|
Linear is a gives you a mid quality interpolation. Linear interpolation has
|
|
|
|
|
less quality trade off for speed that Nearest Neighbour interpolation algorithm
|
|
|
|
|
does. Nearest Neighbour is the fastest way to interpolate but it has the
|
|
|
|
|
lowest quality of the interpolation algorithms. The Cubic interpolation algorithm
|
|
|
|
|
produces the highest quality of the three interpolation types supported by
|
|
|
|
|
Gimp. However it is considerable slower that the linear interpolation algorithm.
