Hello! I do a lot of image work for my job and my little team really appreciates all the time and effort you all put into these plug-ins. Countless hours have been saved thanks to the work you all share and upload.
I was hoping I could find someone who could help write a small QOL edit a plug-in.
The plug-in is the Center Resize All Layers to Image Size created by Tin Tran over on http://gimplearn.net.
Would it be possible to have the code loop until it's Centered/Resized all layers and then delete the "Background" layer?
First I need to say: None of my team, myself included, is very good with GIMP. I'd still classify us all as novice, even after years. Some of them can barely understand what a "brush" or "layer" is and just follow a very basic step-by-step-with-pictures guide to get their basic edits done. I swear they're smart. Just... not with image work/programs.
We work with hundreds of images at a time. For the scaling/size, we typically open a new canvas with our desired size/dimensions, upload a ton of different sized images as layers, use that plug-in to center and resize all of the images to the canvas size, and then use another plug-in to export all layers as individual images. We export to a lot of different folders. Unfortunately, this means they also export the white Background layer to every folder as well. They will then go to every individual folder (sometimes a couple hundred) and delete the white background image.
It would be so much less of a headache to just have that layer deleted automatically before exporting.
