> # This is a list of tips for the GIMP. Every time the GIMP is
> # started, one tip will be selected from this file and will be
> # displayed in the "Tip of the day" dialog.
> #
> # - Lines starting with '#' are comments.
> # - Blank lines or comments separate two tips (they are not ignored).
> # Multiple blank lines are treated as one. If you want to have a
> # blank line in a tip, put a space or tab in it.
> # - Text will appear in the dialog as it is in this file. This is
> # done on purpose in order to have more freedom in the layout of the
> # tips than with automatic word-wrapping, but this also means that
> # you have to avoid excessively long lines in this file.
> # - Tips should be concise: 3 lines or less.
> #
> # Tips in this file have been contributed by Zachary Beane, Mo Oishi,
> # Raphael Quinet, Sven Neumann and other people on the gimp mailing
> # lists.

> 歡迎來到 GIMP 的世界！

> 幾乎所有的影像處理都可以在圖像上以滑鼠的右鍵來開啟操作功能。

>
> GIMP 使用多個圖層來組織您的圖像。 把圖層想像成一疊投影片，
> 或是一疊有顏色的濾片，如此以這些內容層層疊出整合的圖像。
>
> You can perform many layer operations by right-clicking on the text
> label of a layer in the Layers dialog (Dialogs->Layers & Channels).

> 以滑鼠右鍵點選圖層視窗內的圖層名稱能帶出一功能表，讓您能執行

>
> When trying to save files as GIF, XPM, or any other indexed
> color format, you need to convert the image to indexed using

>
> 若想將圖像存成類似GIF/XPM或其它屬於索引色碼的圖檔，
> 您必需先把圖像以索引的方式轉換好【Image->Indexed】。

> You can get the Tool Options menu to open by double-clicking

> 在工具箱內，您可用滑鼠左鍵雙擊該工具來帶出特殊的工具選項。

>
> 在圖層顯示視窗內，以滑鼠右鍵雙擊其圖層名稱，便可更改其名稱。

> The layer named "Background" is special. You can't add
> transparency or a layer mask to it. To add transparency, you

> layers dialog and selecting "Add Alpha Channel".
>
> 名為"背景"的圖層是比較特殊的。您無法直接加上透明度或圖層遮罩。
> 若要加上透明度，您必需使用【Add Alpha Channel】這個功能。
>
> When using a drawing tool (Paintbrush, Airbrush, or Pencil),
> Shift-click will draw a straight line from your last drawing

>
> 當使用繪圖工具如（畫筆，噴槍，或鉛筆），以滑鼠配合《Shift》鍵，
> 可以很方便的從上一個節點連接一條直線到現在的節點。

> 大部分的嵌入功能模組都是作用於現在被選擇到的圖像的單一圖層。
> 但在某些狀況下，您需先整合所有圖層為一(Layers->Flatten Image)，
> 以便於嵌入的功能模組能作用於整個圖像上。
>
> Most file-formats can't handle layers and for that reason only

>
> 因為現有大部分的影像檔案格式無法處理多個圖層，所以用來存檔時，
> 只有預選到的圖層會被存下來。 以GIMP內定的XCF檔案格式來存檔，
> 則可以保存工作現狀不變。

> Not all effects can be applied to all kinds of images. This

> change the image to RGB, add an alpha-channel or flatten it.
>
> 並非所有的影像處理特效都可用在各式的圖像上。 在功能選單上，
> 當某項功能無法使用時，文字會以淡灰色表示。 但若您還是要用它，
> 那麼就必需對圖像動一點手腳，例如，把原為黑白的圖像改為彩色，
> 或加上【alpha-channel】或是把所有的圖層整合為一。

> 在檔案選擇輸入框內有類似【shell】的功能，可以用《Tab》鍵來
> 完成未打完的檔案名稱。 只要鍵入部份的檔案名稱，按下《Tab》，

> You can reassign shortcut keys on any menu by bringing up the menu,

> 您可以重新安排在功能選單上的快速鍵組合。 方法是先用滑鼠

> 且當離開GIMP時，這個設定將會被儲存下來。

> 所有舊的【channel】功能都被更強大且具更彈性的圖層與圖層模式

>
> 當按住《shift》鍵來做目標選擇時，新與舊的目標選擇是加成的。
> 若以《Ctrl》來做的話，其結果是舊的減去新的部份。
>
> You can press or release the Shift and Ctrl keys while you are

> 當您要做正圓/正方形的目標選擇或想改由其中心點來操作，此時
> 您可以《shift》和《Ctrl》鍵來控制。

> 當用【fuzzy】目標選擇時，您可以用滑鼠左右《clicking-draging》
> 來調整目標選擇的範圍。

> Shift-click on the eye icon in the Layers dialog to hide all

>
> 在顯示圖層的視窗內，以《Shift-click》點選某圖層的眼形圖示，
> 則會只顯示這個圖層而隱藏其他。 但再次《Shift-click》則會顯示
> 所有的圖層。
>
> Ctrl-click on the layer mask's preview in the Layers dialog
> toggles the effect of the layer mask.
>
> 在顯示圖層的視窗內，以《Ctrl-click》點選圖層遮罩的預覽區，
> 則會反轉圖層遮罩的效果。
>
> Alt-click on the layer mask's preview in the Layers dialog
> toggles viewing the mask directly.
>
> 在顯示圖層的視窗內，以《Alt-click》點選圖層遮罩的預覽區，
> 則會改變直接顯示遮罩內容與否。
>
> You can use Alt-Tab to cycle through all layers in an image
> (if your window manager doesn't trap those keys...).
>
> 您可以用《Alt-Tab》來逐層檢視組成圖像的所有圖層。
> （得注意您所用的視窗管理程式是否會攔截這個組合鍵）
>
> Shift-click with the Bucket Fill tool to have it use
> the background color instead of the foreground color.
>
> 使用《Bucket Fill》的工具配合《Shift-click》，便可以背景
> 而非前景顏色來塗抹目標區。
>
> Control-drag with the Transform tool in rotation mode
> will constrain the rotation to 15 degree angles.
>
> 在空間轉換工具的旋轉模式，用《Ctrl-drag》可將旋轉角度
> 限制在15度內。
>
> You can adjust and re-place a selection by using Alt-drag.
>
> 您可以用《Alt-drag》來調整和重置目標選擇。
>
> If your fonts turn out blocky, that's because they're not scalable
> fonts. Most X servers support scalable Type 1 Postscript fonts.
> Download and install them.
>
> 如果您所用的字形看起來很不平順，那是因為這些字形不能縮放。
> 大部分的Ｘ伺服器可以支援【Type 1 Postscript】的縮放字形。
> 下載並安裝這類字形吧。

> Using Edit->Stroke allows you to draw simple squares or circles by

> More complex shapes can be drawn with Filters->Render->Gfig.
>
> 用【Edit->Stroke】可以讓您在預選好的目標選擇的邊緣上
> 以預選筆形畫出簡單的方形與圓形。
> 但較複雜的圖形就得用【Filter->Render->Gfig】這個工具來畫了。
>
> To create a perfect circle, hold Shift while doing an ellipse select. To
> place a circle precisely, drag horizontal and vertical guides tangent to
> the circle you want to select, place your cursor at the intersection
> of the guides, and the resulting selection will just touch the guides.
>
> 若想要畫出正圓形，方法是，執行橢圓目標選擇時按住《Shift》鍵。
> 而要精確的放置在某定點的方法是，利用水平與垂直的參考墨線
> 正切齊您所選的圓形，將游標放在交叉點上，那麼結果便會如您所願。
