The selection tools have some of those as modes. replace - add - subtract - intersect.

GIMP Version: Newest Operating System: Windows GIMP Experience: Basic Level Does gimp have those math tools like union, and intersect? I have been searching and not finding anything. I thought i watched a video and he showed them, but cant find it now. |

Attachment: mode.jpg A 30 second demo https://i.imgur.com/w4s4AqE.mp4 thank you, i was hoping for something more advanced like all the other graphic programs. Even the free one for my cutter has the tools, just set up the layers and click intersection, etc. hmm, lol wonder if i can port them to that program. lol. |

Sounds like "all the other graphic programs" are vector applications. Perhaps Gimp is not the tool to use. |

Just not coded for easy manipulations. They are there and can be used. If you have a channel/mask you can right click it and combine it with the selection using replace/add/subtract/intersect operations. There are also available in the script-fu/python-fu APIs. However, "union/difference" assumes boolean while a channel value is a number, which is why the operations are add/subtract. |

(Inkscape is a vector editor, Gimp is a bitmap editor.) it doesnt matter, the routines are there, but the code is not. simple as that, vector of bitmap does not matter. |
