The toolbox is "slaved", for want of a better word, to the first image opened, whatever that image may be. If I move the image window, the toolbox moves with it. I am in multi image mode; I've checked. If I activate a different image and click on a tool (or anything in the toolbox) the first image becomes active and jumps to the top. The effect of this is that I can really only work on one image at a time. Work effectively, that is. I'm probably just missing a new setting or something.

GIMP 3.0.0 (Mac)
Mac OS 13.7.4 Ventura

Hey there, excited to try out the new features.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem: No matter what I try, it seems like 3.0 simply refuses to use pressure sensitivity.
However, when I switch to 2.10, it works (almost) flawlessly.

My computer uses:

• Windows 11
  
• Cintiq 22HD (2012 model)
  

• \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Eraser (Not greyed out)
  - Source/Tool type: eraser
  - Vendor/Product ID: (none)
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Pen stylus (Not greyed out)
  - Source/Tool type: pen
  - Vendor/Product ID: (none)
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• System Aggregated Pointer (Not greyed out)
  (omitted)
  
  
• Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Eraser
  - Source/Tool type: eraser
  - Vendor ID: 056a
  - Product ID: 00fa
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Pen Stylus
  - Source/Tool type: pen
  - Vendor ID: 056a
  - Product ID: 00fa
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  

• Core Pointer
  
• WACOM Tablet Eraser
  
• WACOM Tablet Pressure Stylus
  

• Uses "Screen" mode
  
• Shows the "Axes" widget with 6 items (mouse lists "none" for all but the items labelled X and Y)
  
• Shows a curve editor when the Pressure axis is selected.
  

• Restarting GIMP after using the stylus to draw a stroke. (This fixes 2.10 but not 3.0.)
  
• Switching input APIs. (Wintab, Windows Ink)
  
• Updating WACOM drivers and restarting.
  
• Unplugging and replugging the tablet into a different USB port.
  
• Enabling/Disabling "Pressure Compatability" in the driver software under Wacom Tablet Properties > Options...
  
• Enabling/Disabling "Use Windows Ink" in the driver software.
  
  
• In the Configure Input Devices dialog, removing all of the greyed out devices. (This was a recommended fix for earlier versions of GIMP.)
  
• Various combinations of the above while restarting GIMP.
  

Hello ! I got a question about a Python plugin (&I hope i'm in the good subsection for that...).

I've been using the AddonCollectionManager in Gimp 2.14 before turning to Gimp 3, I got quite a lot of brushes/patterns/fonts, so this was extremely useful.
But with the change to Python 3 in Gimp 3, it's logical that this plugin is no longer working (plus it's quite old, from the script itself it seems that it's from 2013 & based on GURM ?).

I've seen that @[b]Ofnuts [/b]has worked on it for a rewrite & clean up in 2013, but is there any hope for someone to try making it work in Gimp 3 ?
I could try my hand at it, but I'm not familiar at all with Python, So that could be quite the journey here ^^°

(BTW, Thanks a lot for the plugins I can find here, there's a lot of things to try !)

I have a new laptop, installed Windows 11 with the Media Creation tool, and installed Gimp 3.0 with the binary from the website @ https://download.gimp.org/gimp/v3.0/wind...etup-1.exe

I have a *local* user - no Windows Live accounts - and it has administrative privileges.  When using the installation wizard, I had it install for all users.

When trying to launch either gimp.exe or within Explorer, right clicking image, Open With, Gimp the ps shows up as a background ps in Task Manager.  Gimp never launches.

However, if I launch gimp.exe as administrator (through Explorer) it does start - note it takes a LOT longer than expected, at least 3-5 minutes.  Everything else on the laptop is fast (decent cpu, nvme drive, 32GB memory, etc on a Thinkpad T15).

as if I have no idea wth is going on.

I waited patiently for about 40 years for Gimp 3.0 to arrive, with high expectations of image altering bliss as the ultimate reward.  I thought once 3.0 was released, things like plugins and scripts that were re-designed specifically for 3.0 would work flawlessly.  

It's confusing to me, a user of Linux Mint, as to what exactly is the proper way to make the Debian based AppImage provided by Gimp.com to do much of anything correctly.  Are there "Debian based" plugins for extensions like Resynthesizer and G'Mic and Beautify while using the AppImage?  I ask this because none of these plugins, which have already been altered to work with my version of the Gimp 3.0 AppImage, work with the Gimp 3.0 AppImage supplied by Gimp.org.

Is this because I'm using Linux Mint, an Ubuntu based version of Linux, instead of Debian?  I can download the official Gimp 3.0 AppImage and things like Render/Fractals/Fractal Explore throw up errors and will not work right out of the box.

I have to get Rich to modify Gimp 3.0 AppImage plugins to make them work; they don't work with the official Debian based AppImage.  Thanks a million for that, btw, Rich.

Will there be a time when I can just download the AppImage on Gimp.org's site and get any plugin already Gimp 3.0 modified to work properly or will they always have to be specifically modified to work with Ubuntu/Linux Mint also?

Lastly, I don't even know if what I'm saying makes sense.  Someone make it make sense for me.

   
Just updated to the new 3.0.0.1 just wonderg what does this mean in the tool panel on the right "layers"

I'm a fairly new "GIMP" user (former PhotoShopper). I just finished my first "job", a pattern for cutting out a violin (Stradivarius ; "Messiah"). The pattern wasn't too hard to make, but it is larger than one A4 sheet of paper. Having read about the issues of others trying to print out larger pieces, I split my pattern in 2 halves and created two separate works to print out (and tape together afterwards). It worked fine.... except, the finished piece which should be exactly 358 mm long prints out to a total of 335 mm. There's nothing missing in the printout, it's just smaller than the image I created and measured multiple times with the measuring tool. Margins don't come into play as each half is far from any margins on the paper. Basically, it simply doesn't print out to match the dimensions that are showing both on the ruler guides and with the measuring tool. Any ideas of why it would be reduced? Thanks

Hi everyone! 
I'm having some issues with the color of my images, hope someone can help me. 
I have basic knowledge of G.I.M.P., but I have been able to use it for a while without issues until now.

The issue is when I import an image (.png) the color is completely different from what it's supposed to be, for example a bright blue logo appears grey once imported, and I have to select some pretty extreme settings in the color filters to change it back to what it's supposed to be.

I used to be able to import any image (as well as this same logo on other projects) normally before and never had an issue, but I recently started to see this change in the 2.10 version, so I updated it to the 3.0 version to see if that fixed it, but I still get the same issue. 
Also, I'm saving my project, and when I reopen it, some of the images appear distorted for some reason.

Any idea what might be happening? Is this a bug, or some setting I'm overlooking? Thanks!

Hi All,

I just downloaded GIMP 3.0 but am experiencing a bug where when I right click to access options the menu only partially display. Is anyone getting this or know a fix for this? It also happens with some click menus. I also cannot scroll though to see other options in the corrupted menu.

Hi there! I developed a batch image processing plug-in for GIMP 3.

Main features:

• Convert image files to any file format provided by GIMP and third-party plug-ins
  
• Export layers as separate images
  
• Export images opened in GIMP
  
• Batch-edit layers in an opened image
  
• Apply any GEGL filter or plug-in during batch processing (rename, scale, ...)
  
• Apply constraints to process only specific images/layers (matching a suffix, visible layers, ...)
