Hello,
I've found some translation errors in the French text within certain menus.
I'm submitting them for correction.
Thank you for your work.
Sincerely.

Hello,
I had already requested this change in a previous version and it was implemented. I can no longer find it in version 3.2.

The idea was to provide quick access to selection drawing functions directly within the rectangular (and circular) and lasso selection tools.
This avoids having to navigate through menus to perform the drawing, resulting in a significant time saving.

Furthermore, I think these functions should not be in the 'Edit' menu but rather in the 'Select' menu.

I'll let you judge the wisdom of this request.
Thank you for your work.
Sincerely.

Hi  
I'm testing the new GIMP 3.0 on Windows, and I’ve run into a persistent issue with the Text Tool.
The Problem: Every time I select a font and start typing on the canvas, GIMP automatically overrides my selection and reverts the font to "Sans-Serif". This happens regardless of which font I choose initially.
Steps to reproduce:

1. Select the Text Tool.
   
2. Pick any font from the Tool Options (e.g., Segoe UI, Tahoma).
   
3. Click on the canvas to create a text box.
   
4. Start typing — the font immediately jumps back to "Sans-Serif".
   

• GIMP Version: 3.0
  
• OS: Windows 11
  
• Input Method: [english]

Most of the tools have presets that you can save. I only found out this today! You can save a desired preset's name  for most tools that have a tool option etc and also edit it here. These show in the 'blue bucket icon with tools' for the different tools. If you click on the tool icon you can see all the different tool presets etc come up.

Hi, 

I read everywhere that you need to install Ghostscript to be able to open the .EPS files in GIMP. However, I never installed it and the .EPS files opens without a problem.

My question is about the resolution. I have a panel every time I open an .EPS files and the resolution is preset at 100. I can select something else and it works. Now... how do I know what the resolution was set to when the author made that file? 

I need to know because we can go from 72dpi to 300, but the opposite is not recommended.

Thanks!

I'm using 3.2.2m (but had this same issue with 2.10.38)

I have searched (here and elsewhere) but can't find a way to set the default text (e.g. font and size).
Mine is stuck on 62pt monotype. Each time I create a new text layer, it defaults back to this. Typically I want to use the same size and font in my particular projects. When I create a text layer in 24pt Arial (for example) without closing the image, if I try to create another text layer, it defaults back to 62pt Monotype again, and I have to change it each time.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to export a picture in JPEG format, but my screen is stuck. I can't select the format nor to change the name of the file. Sometimes it seem that I finally managed do to it, but my exported file doesn't appear in my folder.
Sorry for the faults, I am not a native speaker.
Can I do something to fix it ?
Thanks a lot !

Hello everyone,
I am facing a very frustrating issue with the Text Tool in GIMP 3.2.2 on Windows. Despite choosing different fonts from the list, GIMP keeps writing in the default system font only.
Here is the situation:

• I select a font (like Cambria Bold or any Arabic font), and the name appears correctly in the Tool Options.
  
• However, the text on the canvas does not change at all; it remains in the basic default font.
  
• This happens with both Arabic and English text.
  
• I have already tried this on two different computers, and the exact same thing happens on both.
  

1. Changing the font from both the side panel and the on-canvas editor.
   
2. Typing the font name manually.
   
3. Resetting the Tool Options to default.
   
4. Checking the font folders in Preferences.
   

أهلا بالجميع،
أواجه مشكلة محبطة للغاية مع أداة النص في برنامج GIMP 3.2.2 على نظام ويندوز. فرغم اختياري لخطوط مختلفة من القائمة، إلا أن GIMP يستمر في الكتابة بخط النظام الافتراضي فقط.
إليكم الوضع:

• أقوم بتحديد نوع الخط (مثل Cambria Bold أو أي خط عربي )، ويظهر الاسم بشكل صحيح في خيارات الأداة.
  
• ومع ذلك، فإن النص الموجود على اللوحة لا يتغير على الإطلاق؛ فهو يبقى بالخط الافتراضي الأساسي.
  
• يحدث هذا مع النصوص العربية والإنجليزية على حد سواء.
  
• لقد جربت هذا بالفعل على جهازين كمبيوتر مختلفين ، ويحدث نفس الشيء تمامًا على كليهما.
  

1. تغيير الخط من كل من اللوحة الجانبية والمحرر الموجود على اللوحة.
   
2. كتابة اسم الخط يدويًا.
   
3. إعادة ضبط خيارات الأداة إلى الوضع الافتراضي.
   
4. التحقق من مجلدات الخطوط في الإعدادات.
