When I use text along path on a circle the text gets distorted the closer it gets to the middle of the image, I'm using version 2.10.32 on Windows 10

I am currently trying to install the resynthesizer plug-in on GIMP 2.10.32. My OS is Manjaro Linux. To do this, I tried the method suggested by rich2005 in this thread. While I do now have the resynthesizer tool, I do not have the very useful heal selection tool, or at least not a functional one. Some help would be appreciated

I've found one other thread with the same problem but did not see a solution provided at all.

When I open a saved XCF file, the canvas shows with just the transparency, yet most of the layers are marked as "visible," and I also am unable to change to a different tool, cannot zoom in or out, basically can't perform any function at all. I am still able to "close" the project and GIMP recognizes that by showing GIMP up top instead of the project name, yet nothing in the working area changes. I think it may just be the XCF file is corrupted, but this same issue comes up with 2 other projects. 

I don't think this is a GIMP issue as I am still able to create a new project, and even open up older XCF files. And a fresh reinstall still creates the same issue. 

Converting the file to PSD at least shows the canvas correctly but still "stalls" the program. 

I tried to just recreate the project by basically tracing over the exported PNG in a new project but that same file appears to have corrupted as well. 

Any ideas?

Hi, Wondering whether there is any way to make the item popup in GIMP. Something 3D ish




Like the stars popping out a bit in the above image. Thanks.

Without changing versions of GIMP drop shadows went form being the color selected to being very light versions of the color selected.  I am using layer/layer effects/drop shadow  I have opacity at 100% all the settings are ones I have used many times and it worked fine.  Now all of a sudden the color used for the drop shadow is not the one selected but a very light version of it.  I have included a screenshot.  I am using GIMP 2.10.12 I know everyone is going to say to upgrade to latest version.  However this happened with no changes to GIMP and the last time I upgraded I lost some features.

I'm new to gimp. I am having a problem with my rotate tool. It will not rotate. I know I am on the right layer. Searched google etc. Been looking for answers for a couple of days. The curser with the rotate symbol as a little circle with a line going through it witch, I believe is a lockout. Please take it easy on thee gimp terms. Can you help?

Thanks

I am working to restore an old image and there is a ton of white marks left by tape or some other type of wear. I have been using a combination of resynthesizers heal filter and the clone stamp but it is far too time consuming. I was hoping someone might have a suggestion of how to better deal with this sort of damage.
In the image I included you can see where I have already restored the bottom right portion of the jacket as well as a small portion of the arm and trousers but it is taking a painful amount of time to do this. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks.

I downloaded and unzipped the Resynthesizer files so I can remove a figure from a photo. I can't find the PLUGINS folder in my  GIMP program to add the files. Using WIN10, and GIMP 2.10.32

I have been trying to write a script to automate colour cast removal.
If an image has transparency it "dilutes" the colour cast I am trying to remove.
When I run the following code

Double-clicking on the number in brush size doesn't highlight it. What gives?
