GIMP Version: 2.8.14
Operating System: Linux
GIMP Experience: Basic Level



Yesterday I saw a very short German Tutorial about the use of Radial tool in gimp.I was to able to pick this much information about this aspect of Radial Gradient tool. At least, at least it was new aspect of Radial Gradient tool. Would anybody please throw some more light on this aspect of gradient tool. Gimp curves can do similar things too.

Thanks.

Not sure what You mean by "Further Refined". The Gradient Tool to render any gradient in a radial mode. Just what are you after?

As Mr.rich2005 pointed out the use of 'Bump Map' Filter. This is one option of further exploitation of this technique. As I don't have good command over gimp, so I raised this question in this forum. Experts may know further such possibilities.

Can you post a link to the German tutorial? Perhaps that would give us a better idea of what you are asking about.
