hello dear friends

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of a way to import text from a text file (a .csv file, for example) into a text box?

Testing my near-ready cylinder flattening script on some random bottles. Either there is a bug or the yellow rim has a varying thickness to visually compensate for the cylinder "compression". But then the medals aren't completely circular either. That bottle has been emptied and I didn't keep it so I'll have to fetch the other one tomorrow and take some measurements.

   

Still working on my greetings cards...on a file I've created which is 8in x 6in, I'm making a 4 x 6 card and attempting to copy what a lady did in a video, she was using Lightroom. She made a rectangle selection the size of the front side (4 × 6 in my case) then opened the image she wanted there, and aligned the image to the selection to get it centered (so far so good, and the best way I've found of centering the image so far) but then she GROUPS the image with the selection, and moves it into place to the right hand side of the file. I CANNOT for the life of me find a way of grouping them together in gimp. No matter what I search for i can't find a tutorial. 

Does this even make sence? 

It does work, but I find I have to:
- hunt for the dialogue box centre screen but behind the main GIMP window.
- move it to a position beside the main GIMP window 
- click on the target image in the main window
- double click on OK in the border dialogue box
- sometimes repeat the last two steps once or twice more before anything happens
I am using Mac OS-X Ventura and GIMP 2.10.

I am completely at the starting block wrt scripting, but if anyone is in a position to correct this behaviour for a future update, please could they also consider adding:
- tool preserves current settings (width, colour) for next use
- dialogue box opens where you last left it, and floating above (overlaying) main GIMP window.

Hey all, this is my first post here, although I have used Gimp for a long time for simple things.

I have problem that I think Gimp could help me solved, but I'm not sure how. I have an old service manual scanned, in a very good shape in general, but would be great if I can bring it to almost perfection. I think there are three things that could improve the current quality from an 80% to a 95% (subjective numbers). These things are:

• Remove all single pixel marks. The document has in the background some single pixels (over the white background). Removing al those would be a large improvement.
  
• Straighten out the pages. Some pages are not perfectly "vertical", so detecting the pages that are at an angle and rotating them would also be a huge improvement.
  
• Use OCR to read the text and replace the some how "broken" characters with newly rendered ones of the same font and size.
  

• PDF to individual images
  
• Process each image
  
• List of images to PDF

Hi,

I was playing around with my settings, as I always want JPG's to export at 100% quality (it always seems to want to downgrade to 90%?). Anyway - now when I export an image as a .jpg I get a corrupted image. Here is my settings:

(sorry, I don't seem to be able to embed images via , and the upload attachment doesn't seem to work?)

Anyhow - if I look at the generated .jpg file in Notepad++, I can see it has the right start:

So I'm unsure whats going on :/ When I try and open it in Photos I get:

Any suggestions? I've tried to do a "reset" of the settings but that doesn't seem to help :/

UPDATE: I just installed 2.99.14 beta, and it showed:

Quote:gimp-user-install: migrating from C:\Users\Andy\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10
Gimp-Config-Message: 15:24:31.556: Error while parsing 'C:\Users\Andy\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.99\gimprc' in line 14: invalid value 'convert' for token color-profile-policy

This is a development version of GIMP.  Debug messages may appear here.

Do not know if it is a script or plugin. Can someone attach this here please or link me to where I may find it?

Put the file in

C:\Users\AppData\Local\gegl-0.4\plug-ins

Create the folder "plug-ins" if it doesn't exist.

Just thought I'd post this here - I'm not sure where to put plugins with the repository gone but this is somewhere.

Just made a Python script plug-in that does palette swaps for pixel art that's RGB* and not indexed. Available on GitHub here.
It recolours the current layer, in one of two modes:

1. If given another layer, it identifies the unique colours in both it and the current layer, sorts each of them in order of RGB value, then maps them across.
          
   
2. If given 2 1-pixel-high layers, it builds a map out of them, and recolours everything in the current layer the colour of pixel 1 of the 'subset' layer the colour of pixel 1 of the 'sample' layer. Then continues through.
