for vector graphics, in which graphical elements are represented in a resolution-independent format, in contrast to raster graphics; in which graphical elements are represented as arrays of pixels. GIMP import a path from an SVG file using the Paths dialog. The SVG format handles many other graphical elements than just paths: among other things, it handles figures such as squares, rectangles, circles, ellipses This gives you a powerful set of methods for altering the shapes of paths without affecting other elements of the image. By default a Transform tool, when it is set to affect paths, only acts on a single

image, so when you look at an image’s display, you may see more than just the top layer: you may see elements of many layers. Channels In GIMP Channels are the smallest units of subdivision in the stack of manipulations before they take effect, but only allow you to undo the whole thing rather than the individual elements. For example, the Intelligent Scissors require you to create GNU Image Manipulation Program 42 This gives you a powerful set of methods for altering the shapes of paths without affecting other elements of the image. By default a Transform tool, when it is set to affect paths, only acts on a single
