  Multi window mode mode faults in 3.0.4
Posted by: teapot - Today, 12:53 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi, Using gimp 3.0.4 and Debian.

Is anyone else having problems when two images are open in multi window mode?

It's causing extra behaviour when doing for example:
    Image -> Guides -> New Guide (by percent)
    Image -> Guides -> Remove all Guides
    File -> Export As

one or more of these occur as well:
    Lock a path
    Lock and unlock layers
    Make a layer visible

I cannot spot a pattern that triggers it apart from it's worse the more that's in the image e.g.  having paths and/or layer masks present.

It's fine in single window mode.
It's fine in both single window mode and multi window mode when only one image is open.
I have not tried it in other versions of gimp 3 as I only have 3.0.4 available.

  Accessing GIMP’s internal GEGL operations outside of GIMP
Posted by: activey - 11-02-2025, 09:43 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi everyone,

GIMP defines many custom GEGL operations with the gimp:* prefix (for example, gimp:color-balance, gimp:threshold, etc.).
As far as I can tell, these are registered programmatically inside GIMP during startup - they don’t exist as separate loadable GEGL plugins or .so files.

Is there any supported or practical way to make these gimp:* operations available to an external GEGL-based application, or to initialize the same set of operations in another process?

Specifically:

- Can GIMP’s GEGL operation registration be triggered externally (e.g. by linking or loading GIMP libraries)?
- Has anyone successfully reused these operations outside of GIMP’s runtime environment?
- Or is embedding code inside GIMP itself the only way to access them?

Any insight or code references from the GIMP source tree where these ops are registered would be very helpful.

Thanks!

  Isolate, select and copy/paste elsewhere....
Posted by: Priskaa - 11-01-2025, 02:18 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hello forum !

I'm completely new to GIMP so I fear my questions will be very basic...
Thanks in advance for those who will have patience with me  Blush

My first challenge : I have a round object (say, a large smiley) on a square jpg, white background.
I can select the object easily, but how can I remove the background ?
I tried adding a layer without background but get the full square each time I copy onto this new layer...

Huh

  Gimp shows blank black screen when opening image
Posted by: Stephen_A - 11-01-2025, 12:59 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (1)

Just re-installed Gimp 3.0.6 on Windows 11. Upon opening a jpg Gimp shows a featureless black screen. 
Gimp Vid

Right clicking a jpg and choosing 'open with Gimp' produces a similar effect. Any suggestions or help welcome. Thanks.

  Outlined and filled in 3.0.6
Posted by: davidsk - 10-31-2025, 11:39 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I am struggling with the recently added ability to use outlined and filled text. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it does not. As I am a novice in GIMP, the problem may be me. That is, there may be something I am failing to do. I click the icon to insert text and with the 'Filled' option, the text is visible. Then, I click the 'Outlined and filled' and nothing happens. However, a few times this has worked. Is it an inconsistency, being a new feature, or is it an inconsistency of my being a new user? Any advice on this will be much appreciated. Thank you.

  Can't find path plug-in
Posted by: Zero01 - 10-30-2025, 09:28 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Hi folks! I'm using GIMP 3.0.6 -1 (aarch64) on an X-server (Termux:X11) for Android, so that's a challenge for a start.
Literally not used the program for a couple of years(??)..since 2.10.

There is a plug-in I saved that has the following line:
menupath = '<Vectors>/Tools/Transformations/Moebius map with control of poles'
...which tells GIMP where to put to path (location) to the plugin, as I can't find it anywhere, in the Paths menu I assume the path used is outdated for GIMP3, or will a lot of plugins made for 2.10 and earlier simply not work on 3.x.x?

  "Plug-in crashed" on GIMP 3.0.6, Windows 11
Posted by: ManderLists - 10-28-2025, 05:29 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I just downloaded and installed 3.0.6 yesterday after being prompted to install an update. However, I can't open certain files to edit them as I get the following error messages:


Quote:GIMP Message
Plug-in crashed: "file-jpeg.exe"
(C:\Program Files\GIMP 3\lib\gimp\3.0\plug-ins\file-jpeg\file-jpeg.exe)

The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.

GIMP Message
Opening 'C:\Users\USER\Downloads\TestPhoto.jpg' failed:

Procedure 'file-jpeg-load' returned no return values

I found a thread referencing a similar problem so I checked to see what is in the plug-in folders under Preferences: 
  • C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\plug-ins (empty except the gmic plugin I tried to install)
  • C:\Program Files\GIMP 3\lib\gimp\3.0\plug-ins
This is only happening with certain .jpg files -- other ones seem to open fine. The files in question can be opened with other programs though, including GIMP 2.10.
