Hi
I'm using GIMP 2.10.36 on win 10. In the past I've exported pdf files OK, but the file I'm working on at the moment the rhs of the layer(s) is truncated, or, rather, seems to be covered over by a rectangle of background colour - the overall width of the document seems to be about what I expected.
Any idea what could be happening here?

Gary
I've investigated a bit and it seems that the layers are not truncated but there is something in the generated file that prevents Microsoft Edge -- my pdf reader -- from rendering the file correctly. It first reports that there is a problem with the file, and doesn't open it. It is when I try to load the file into edge a second time that it appears to have the rhs of the document 'truncated!. However, I've tried to open the file with irfanview and there it does load OK, but of course irfanview is not a good option for viewing pdf files. So I would like to know what gimp is putting (or not putting) into the file that renders it incompatible with MS edge.

I have generated pdfs from gimp before which do not exhibit this problem, and as far as I can think I've produced this one in the same way.
Any suggestions welcome as I spent quite a bit of time producing these files and have several more to do, and I really don't want this happening.

Hi all,

Pls advise how to add green color to trees and make the photo more clear as well

Thanks

Hey guys,

Is it possible to make some filters, found via the '/' or '?' key, to be accessed via menus?

Many times, especially after a long time without using certain filters, I simply forget their name, and when I have to
editing something that requires these filters I only find them if I have their name written down somewhere.

When the forgotten filter is one found in a menu, even without remembering its name I recognize it after browsing the menus looking for "something familiar".

However, via the '/' (or '?') key the difficulty is greater. I know what I want from the filter but how can I type it without remembering its name?

I tried typing * (asterisk) in the 'Search Actions' search prompt (/), but the environment is not friendly at all.

Filters like Small Tilles and Blinds are among the ones I always forget the name of. But I think these are of type .exe and not .py or .scm.

Anyway, is it possible to access these filters - Small tilles and Blinds via menus?

If yes how?

Grateful!

Hi there, i'm a very beginner user and i'm trying to use gimp to create a camouflage for a videogame I like. my question is if it's possible, when using the layers, make one of them just a tiny bit transparent so u can see the layer below and do some work wile beeing able to see the reference image benith it.

closed the lower-right "Dock" because the almighty software didn't deem me worthy enough to enlarge the layers part to a size more than half-an-inch in height. which combination of headstands and jumping-jacks do i need to do to get it back? a reference to the relevant chapter and verse of the holy dOCumEnTaTioN would also suffice.

GIMP is free—so why are you complaining? you're right, no-one should ever make anything of any quality unless they're paid in hard cash, and charities are immoral and redundant.

Hi, I am trying to recreate a "Logo" i made back in 2017     . For that I used alpha-to-logo filter "Glowing hot". 
I found out that it is not in the version i am using (2.10) so I downloaded .scm file of that to add it back. 
I used the same font but as the glowing effect spreads it makes really pixelated borders     . How can I make it smooth as i did in 2017 ? is it problem with the .scm ? Is it because of the gimp version ? 
I have tried different "effect size" options from 20 - 500 but it is still not that smooth. is there any tool to make it smoother or should I go back to older version of gimp or what can i do ?
Appreciate any answers.  

using this "export all layers at once" plugin: Home | Export Layers (kamilburda.github.io)

i made 12 duplicates of the same layer and then moved then all into position to make animation frames. but the plugin just exports them all as the original frame from which the other 11 were duplicated, so i just get 12 copies of the same exact frame which is absolutely awesome. yes, of course i've read the dOcuMEntaTIoN.

I have don’t a lot of searching and I cannot find much on the ‘file-svg-load’ procedure. 

If I start gimp from the directory in which an SVG is located using 

   
How do I get the times/dates back? I used to have them but now I get unknown, even for stuff I have done a little while ago.

I am going insane. I go into the python console and press browse. If I enter "spiral" in the search box nothing comes up. If I switch to "description" which some online tutorial said would catch the hoover text. There is still nothing.

I just don't get it?!? Is the spiral renderer glued on top of something else that I have to use when writing scripts in the backend? If so what function?



I am on 2.10.36 if that is relevant but I think spiral has been there since I first installed years ago.
