Post subject: | PERSPECTIVE TOOL BENDING OTHER SIDE BACK |
GIMP Version: 2.8.14 Operating System: Linux GIMP Experience: Basic Level I have been trying to rectify a photo with skyscrapers on both sides of the middle. a photo including skyscrapers converging at the top of the photo 1. I put a grid over the photo. 2. I adjust the grid from 10 default to 150 3. I place the perspective tool at the top left corner to pull that side out so a vertical edge lines up with a vertical grid line. I left click 4. I place the perspective tool at the top right corner and pull outward to line a vertical on that side up with a vertical grid line. But this pulls the left side over to the right. So the building edges cannot be rectified. Is there any way to stop one side from being pulled over? any suggestions solving this would be appreciated. |

A complex picture to adjust in perspective: -original Attachment: 2009-06-17_IMGP0409.JPG [ 2.64 MiB | Viewed 2323 times ] -show grid, then activate perspective, then move corner as needed Attachment: CatturaCOMPLEX-adjustment.PNG [ 1.27 MiB | Viewed 2323 times ] -crop as needed Attachment: CatturaCROP.PNG [ 1.13 MiB | Viewed 2323 times ] |

The easy technique is to first put the Perspective tool in "Corrective" mode. Attachment: Perspective1.png [ 30.93 KiB | Viewed 2317 times ] Then you make the tool show a grid ("Guides: Number of lines" option) and pull the corner markers so that the grid is parallel to your verticals. Attachment: Perspective2.jpg [ 166.58 KiB | Viewed 2317 times ] And then you just apply the transform. Attachment: Perspective3.jpg [ 85.08 KiB | Viewed 2317 times ] As you can see in many case applying the exact correction (verticals are truly vertical above) make the perspective almost inverted (possibly because we are used to see these things from below). This could be worse for skyscrapers, depending on how far the shot is taken. |

You can transform/distort any selection as well, for example select only the building ou the part of the image you want straightened, then use your preferred transform tool |

An image has also verticals... yes image below is of bad quality because it was a +11MB when I exported first, so i did put the jpg export with a quality of 18 for the forum (first time I go below 70 BTW) to get a reasonable size (weigh) of 1.5MB bottom right = original Attachment: Untitled.jpg [ 1.4 MiB | Viewed 1803 times ] Anyway, this image was made with a wide angle lens (and the plane is also inclined), where accent was made to show the scale of the building compared to people, very high ISO, and so, don't expect to get something clean (the picture itself has already way to much noise) and anything other than the very-center will be stretched, and more you go to the edge, more you will need to stretch... |

More seriously, You move your transformation while transforming to minimize the misalignment at the hardest part then just use the usual suspects: clone tool, layer mask... An example with the @dinasset's picture move the selected transformation to align fence, car park lines, while transforming as you can adjust transformation as well then here many options: - clean the top cloud with the clone tool - or the eraser, to bring back the original below - or use a mask to bring the original below - clone/cut the "misaligned mountain" - or just copy this part from the original and paste it on top on a new layer, adjust/transform/mask to your liking ![]() |

Attachment: YIAC0157 (copy).JPG Attachment: YIAC0157 (copy)_adjusted.JPG There is no way to know the actual aspect ratio of things, so you may have to scale the image afterwards (this is also true of all other methods...). And as I said a complete correction can look overdone anyway. This said, your initial picture is very distorted by the wide angle lens, so I would have fixed that distortion first. |

You are first selecting part of the photo with rectangle select then hitting shift and going to 3d transform? |
