GEGL Operation Window Fails

[gasMask]

Hi,

I'm running GIMP 2.10.24 (revision 3) on Windows 10, and the GELG Operation dialog fails during its opening process.

The dialog has focus after I try to open it, but it's window never appears.

Any ideas on how to fix this? I haven't noticed any other problems with the interface.

Thanks for any ideas,
Charles

Possibly hidden behind another window? Or showing up off screen? Find your Gimp profile, open the sessionrc file in it with a text editor, and look for:

Code:

(session-info "toplevel"
    (factory-entry "gimp-gegl-tool-dialog")
    (position 815 61))

Are the values in "position" coherent with your screen size?

I found the sessionrc file, and in the file, there was no position entry for the GEGL operation window, so I copied your code into the text file placing the code snippet at the bottom of the position list.

Then I opened GIMP and tried to open the GEGL window, but still nothing. I shutdown GIMP and restarted it. This time I opened an image and tried to open the GEGL operations dialog, and behold, the window appeared! So, problem solved!

Thank you,
Charles

Yep, same here in linux. Tools -> GEGL Operation only shows with an open image.
...bug...should be greyed out as with other GEGL filters.
