Been messing around in GIMP this evening as I want to create a shape.
Basically a wide and not very tall rectangle, solid colour, a banner if you will.
Then subtract a bezier curve from it.
Hard to explain in just text
I have been getting some alarmingly weird results in GIMP.
In theory what I can do is draw a rectable selection area, then draw my bezier curve (path tool) over the top of the rectangle area, and before clicking "selection from path" I hold the control key down, which should subtract from from t'other.
Not quite working for me though as it tries to turn my bezier curve into a polygonal shape and then subtract that from the rectangle with some alarmingly weird results.
Googling around for hours and cannot find anything on the topic.
Are there any artistically capable bods on here that can describe to me what it is I am trying to do?
