I got a new laptop(Lenovo legion 5) and started to install the programs and one of them was gimp.
The first time I tried to install it worked but now it says (when extracting files) :
C:\Windows\system32\zlib1.dll
Eons ago I used Adobe PS and could do the basic task but have not been able to figure out how to do this in GIMP.
I need to do what I assume is a simple copy of one image and past it on top/into another.
What I need to do is take image of bat call pulses and paste it into another blank image with frequency lines as the background.
This show predicted call frequencies for species not yet known.
Seems the repetitive task will serve my needs but clearly I need a bit of hand holding to master the few steps. I can not seem to find the correct menu items to select and complete this task. Once I have the steps I should be able to repeat them as often as necessary.
Tnx for anyone willing to assist. As the old saying goes"It is never too late to teach an old dog new tricks...it =just takes longer!" ;-)
Cheers

I have many open files (200+?); I really would like to avoid saving 1 at a time. I found a script that appears to add a 'Save All' option. I've installed into correct folders. I think I need to refresh scripts (per https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-filte...pt-fu.html); but I am not seeing an option to refresh scripts. All I have under script-fu menu is "Console" and "Start Server..."
I would appreciate recommendations on how to achieve the goal of saving all those files; getting that refresh scripts function to execute.
*edited to add* I am using GIMP 2.10.24 (revision 3)

I ended up clicking through Close all. So accomplished my immediate need... but I do this to myself a lot. Would be nice to just autoincrement a file name and save it all in one click.
gimp-item-transform-translate allows me to move an item relative to its starting position. But what if I wanted to move an item to an absolute position, let's say, to 0,0. Is there a procedure that does that?
Is there a way to add automatic hyphenation in GIMP?
I'm designing a brochure and need a straighter margin on the right side when the text changes lines, but the only way I've managed to do so is by manually adding a hyphen(-).
To remove colour casts;
Apply Colors > Auto > White Balance from the main menu. This should automatically remove colour casts from most photos but not 100% workable.
I have a large base image on which I have placed several smaller images as individual layers. These small images have been obtained by screenshooting them from internet image searches and cropping them to eliminate other images around them, and to create as little layer space as possible. After finally fitting them perfectly on my base image and getting each one to be the right color and brightness, I can see those little wavy flecks and lines around them that happen after an image has been lifted and placed, lifted from there and placed somewhere else, lifted and placed again.... Like the way you can tell that a meme has made its rounds on social media. How can I get rid of those little "lossy pic" marks? The images themselves seem fine, but the area around them starting from the hard edges each has needs to be nice and clean, as the base image is pure white where they're placed.
Hi, I am brand new to gimp scripting and still figuring out the basics. I'd like to find out how to perform a translation on only the pixels of a layer that are within a selection. Basically the equivalent of doing this in the UI: perform selection, hold down Ctrl-Alt, then click and drag.
I can create a selection just fine, but I don't know how to turn the pixels inside the selection into a floating selection. I assume once I do that, I can just use gimp-item-transform-translate on the floating selection?
Thanks!
I figured it out: the procedure to use is gimp-selection-float, which performs the translation as well. Just pass in the desired layer as the drawable
