HELLO I will try to explain my problem. I want to turn an image into a poster with custom dimensions, so I wanted to use GIMP’s guides and crop the image following the guides. The thing I don’t understand is that nothing matches when I put them in the image: the image size, the guides, etc.

I have an image that is 63×83 cm.

I set my margins in cm based on the image scale, but they should be much smaller. Instead, they are still set to 1 cm.

And when I go to Image > Image Size and Dimensions, I get another size entirely.

THANK

I am having an issue with the GEGL tool. When I click on any image I get a GEGL Operation dialog. If I click on Cancel the dialog goes away but as soon as I click on the image again the dialog comes back. Even happens on a New blank image. I was using Gimp for a little while before this started happening, and I guess it is possible I did something to cause the problem, but I have no idea what I did or how to fix it. 

SO, I rebooted and then uninstalled/reinstalled Gimp and the problem was still there. Then I uninstalled Gimp, deleted all the GIMP/GIMP 2.10 directories I could find, and reinstalled. Now it is working OKAY. Checked around the forum but didn't see the problem reported anywhere, but does anyone have an idea what is going on ? What could I have done to make this happen, so I don't do it again ?

Thanks, Jack

  and have tried several ways to use it. 
  
  First I saved it in:
  C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\scripts\red-rectangle-with-borders.scm
  I tried filters -> Script-FU -> Refresh Script and clicked on filters -> Script-FU and the file wasn't there.  I closed Gimp and reopened it. 
  Then I I looked in help -> Plug-in browser and couldn't find it there. 
  I looked in all of the menus since I read that the scm file could be anywhere but no luck.
  
  So I saved it in downloads and  moved it to this path: 
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\scripts\red-rectangle-with-borders.scm  
 I did the same things that I did when I saved it in the roaming folder and still no luck.

Would someone be gracious enough to show me what I did wrong?  Thanks

Yesterday I wanted to change the subject a bit and I fished out an old script of mine to convert the CBR (rar) and CBZ (zip) Comics Books files to PDF on bash using Linux.

I could probably add the CBT (tar) and CB7 (7zip) formats, but I can't find sample files for the tests.

The repo is located here:

Hello!

I have trouble with porting a script written in Script-Fu from Gimp2 to Gimp3. I managed to run the script, but when script execution finished, I've got the following error: argument 1 must be: number. Unfortunately, I cannot understand why this error occurs. Could anyone review my code and help me to make the script working. The script is below:

I've recently embarked on digitizing a number of b&w negatives, which I have scanned using VueScan. I'm now at the point of editing them slightly using Gimp (v 3.0), which has gone fairly well, after climbing the learning curve.

I now want to print them. To do so, I'm first selecting the Image-->Print Size, and selecting (for example) a width (7.0) and and height (4.692), which results in a PPI of 1303 in my case. From there, I'm simply selecting the "Print" option in Gimp and sending the job to the printer (Canon Pixma-100). In the Print dialog, the same sizes and ppi values are reflected (7 x 4.692, 1303). I'm using A3+ paper (I know, it's oversized, but it's what I have at the moment). I used to have the printer installed on a former computer, but that was years ago. This time around, rather than use the installation disks and their bloatware I merely downloaded the current printer driver from Canon's site.

When I print the photo at 300x300 dpi it prints very small on the paper (~3.5" x 2.25"). When I print at 600x600 dpi it seems to prints at the correct dimensions (~7" x 4.7"). When I print at 1200x1200 dpi it prints only a small portion of the image (very large), since the majority of the image would appear off of the page. In each case, it would seem that the image should actually print at 7.0" x 4.692" since that is what I selected...yet, these different sizes are the result. It appears that the DPI setting selected in the Gimp Print option is dictating the image size, rather than the Print Size that I have selected for the file.

I recognize that it might be the case that the printer driver is overriding the Print Size. When I select the printer via my Mac (System Settings-->Printers and Scanners-->Canon Pro 100 Series) there is no option anywhere to un/check a "Fit to Page" or "Scale to Fit" option, which I thought might be the issue.

Does anyone know how I can get images to print at the size I've selected, given my current setup?

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas, I appreciate it.

How do I combine this image with this video, so the green screen removed into and the image as the background instead
anyone know, I been trying and my brain still cant process it

I've recently had to reinstall GIMP on a fresh boot of my computer. When I important images that are larger than the canvas (i.e. I am working in layers and want to add something then resize) GIMP is automatically adding rows of dead pixels to the image. These images are seamless and do not have dead pixels/seams in the original. I have verified there are no additional pixels in the original image by opening it on its own, transforming it, and zooming in.

Does anyone know how to fix this? 

Thank you.
