Good morning,

I have a general technical question: is it possible that a photo, processed in "grayscale" mode, then exported in jpeg format, is unreadable afterwards?
Indeed, a person to whom I sent a photo, informs me that his computer can not open it, and tells him: "invalid ICC profile". Does the jpeg embed the ICC profile? or does the problem come from processing in "grayscale" mode and not in RGB?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, everyone!

According to the official document, If you check the "Preference > Color Management > Filter Dialog > Show Advanced color options", you can access the advanced color option in Filter dialog. However, I was not able to find any difference between the enabled this option and not. 



Would you give me a some example of Filter dialog and how this option works?

Thanks in advance!

Environment: Windows 10, GIMP 2.10.36

   
Hi!

My system is Ubuntu 22.04 with Nvidia graphics.

Gimp itself works fine, but using Rawtherapee plugin in opening DNG pic works not correctly. Plugin open yes, but it gives a message "Gimp_Plugin_info" (ok to dismiss) and after that the plugin looks odd, most graphical elements are replaced by simple black squares end so on. Slide controllers work and I can adjust pic partially. After closing I can see pic nicely in Gimp.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? What is the cure? In my other machine (laptop) everything work nicely. Same software version, but different hardware.

See attached image.

Please!

Hello,

I'm using Gimp 2.10 on Ubuntu 22.04.

Using the Clone tool the Ctl key is not detected by Gimp ( the Ctl Key is working elsewere.) this is rendering Gimp unusable un Ubuntu. The problem seems to be known  for a long time, I do not find any workaround. Alt Caps lock, Ctl Alt do not work more.

Any help will be appreciated.

I am creating a tartan - but the online Tartan Designer shows the colours by different horizontal and vertical interwoven coloured "threads".
While the "shade" created by these lines is realistic, I want the "interwoven" colours to show as a "simple" "flat" shade.   

Is it possible to "blend" the "threaded" colours into a single colour shade? 
   

Hi all!

I ran into a probably trivial problem: I can’t put a color layer (overlapping) on a certain layer, and instead, the color layer covers everything.

Can anyone tell me how to fix this?

Hello all. I have Google'd this issue and have seen numerous posts in various forums with no real resolution. I am using Gimp v2.10.30 on a Windows 11 PC. The problem I am having and cannot seem to resolve is that upon printing, Gimp is reverting larger format documents to letter size. Here are the steps I am taking in the current example I am dealing with.

1. Create a new document that is 24" x 36" to be printed to an Epson SC-F570, large format sublimation printer.
   
2. Add all images to blank document.
3. In "Page Setup", change "Size" to "User-Defined" and "Source" to "Roll Paper" (as needed for printer in question).
   
4. Click "Print", bringing up the Gimp print dialogue.
5. Click "More settings" to launch the printer specific settings dialogue.
6. Change "Document Size" to "User-Defined" and "Output Size" to 24" x 36".
   
7. Click "OK" on printer specific dialogue.
8. Click "Print" on Gimp print dialogue, which brings up the printer specific print preview.
9. Document size reverted to 8.5" x 11"
   

I have done this over and over again. Regardless of how many ways I confirm the intended document and print size to be 24" x 36", once I get to the last step where I would hit "Print" for the final time to actually start printing, the document size is changed back to 8.5" x 11". This does not happen with other graphics software using the same process, computer and printer. This ONLY happens using Gimp. Has anyone experienced this and actually resolved it? Pulling what's left of my hair out trying to get Gimp to print larger formats properly. Thank you so much for any input.

Hello!

I've searched for hours for an answer on the net and I haven't found anything, although I'm sure my question is very simple, as I'm a beginner with script-fu. I've been working on GIMP for years, but I've never used the console.

Here's my question: on the console, I want to use the procedure:

gimp-drawable-hue-saturation

which I've chosen from the list. When I activate this procedure, I have to fill in the necessary data for

(gimp-drawable-hue-saturation drawable hue-range hue-offset lightness saturation overlap)

So I've entered my chosen values:
(gimp-drawable-hue-saturation drawable 0 0 0 -100 0)

But what do I do with DRAWABLE????

My layer is named "Calque", so I've tried the "Calque" syntax, and other possibilities, but I keep getting an error message, see the attached screenshot.

Thank you SO MUCH for your help!

Hi all

I'm new to writing GIMP scripts, and relatively new to python, but slowly I'm beginning to make progress with python-fu and simple script development.

I have a process I'm currently performing manually on a regular basis, and I'd like to create a script to automate it. The manual process is as follows:

1. Select an area of the image
2. Perform Auto Levels (Colors -> Levels -> Auto Input Levels)
3. Undo Levels
4. Select all of the image
5. Re-apply the previous levels (Filters -> Repeat Levels)

In scripting the above, I've got as far as step 4 successfully - but for step 5 I'm stuck, as I can't find any procedure in the pdb that lets me re-apply the previous levels. After a bit of searching online, I found that GIMP writes these values to a GimpLevelsConfig.settings file in the AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\Filters directory (on my installation, at least) - and if I look in this file, I can indeed see the levels last applied... but I can't find any procedure that will let me retrieve the values.

So... my questions to the esteemed and knowledgeable python scripters here are:

1. Is there a way to call the Filters -> Repeat Levels function via an existing internal GIMP procedure?
2. If "no" to the above, is there a way to access the levels values last applied without resorting to the "GimpLevelsConfig.settings" file?
3. If "no" to the above, is there a way of reading the file via one or more existing internal GIMP procedures?
4. If "no" to the above, (a) how do I obtain the directory for the file (in case it's configured differently across versions and platforms), and (b) can anyone help me with guidance on reading and parsing the file to a set of variables?

Any assistance for this rank novice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Mike

PS. Sorry, I forgot to mention, I'm running GIMP 2.10 on Windows, Ubuntu and Fedora environments...

Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum.


I'm encountering an issue with GIMP 2.10.36 (revision 1) on Windows 10.


I would like to display emojis from the Segoe UI Emoji font in a textbox, similar to the example shown below (apologies for the French language!):

   

But when I copy and paste the same string into a GIMP textbox, the emojis are displayed as black outlined emojis, like the example below:

   

Do you have any ideas on how I can resolve this issue and make the emojis display correctly as intended?

Thanks in advance for your help!
