Hello everyone!

I'm using gimp to make figures for my scientific papers. Often I need to place a guide in a certain position relative to a selected layer. I'm trying to write a pretty simple script, that do the job. However, I have a problem with it. I want to have a checkbox, with indicates whether the guide should be placed within the selected layer or not. But it doesn't work. Every time, the script return negative value for guide position. If I have a multilayer image, this means that the guide is placed outside the active layer, regardless of the state of the checkbox. If I have a single layer image, I get an error, that the guide is outside the image. Could anyone help me to solve this problem? The full script is below. Thank you!

I need to use descreen. I've tried to add FFT but the tutorial gives Windows directions. I can't find my C: drive.

Hello

The interoperability feature with Darktable, which allows to open a RAW file in Darktable from Gimp, does not work.

Gimp is not able to open the RAW file modified by Darktable.
Here is the error window:

--------------------------------------------------------
GIMP Message :
Calling error for procedure 'gimp-file-load':
Error opening file '/tmp/gimp/2.10/gimp-temp-253451.exr' for reading

GIMP Message
Opening '/home/benoit/RAW/D7100/DCIM/111D7100/NII_2044.NEF' failed:

Raw Nikon plug-in could not open image

--------------------------------------------------------

I am running Debian GNU/Linux

My Darktable version: 4.0.1
Of Gimp : 2.10.22

I specify that it works on another computer under Debian GNU/Linux in Testing, therefore with other versions of Gimp and Darktable.

Thanks in advance

I am new to the forum and new to GIMP.
 
I tried researching the subject of how to install plugins in GIMP, but every tutorial I could find was in reference to GIMP plugins only—plugins designed specifically for GIMP. Can anyone tell me if third party plugins can be installed in GIMP? Specifically, I am wanting to use Topaz Photo AI as a plugin in GIMP.

I know how to find the GIMP plugins folder, but I don’t know which part of the Topaz Photo AI folder to put in there.

Hi, I'm brand new to using Gimp. Before this I mainly used Clip Studio Paint, which has a feature called clip to layer below. It allows you to make a layer you can clip to another layer, anything you draw on the clipped layer will only show up on the layer underneath. It's useful if you want to change your lineart to a different color, for example. Does Gimp have anything that allows me to do this?

I have an outline from an image that is gradient and I'm trying to make the entire image (square) match the gradient. Is there a fairly easy way to accomplish this?

Is it intentional not to have icons in the drop-down / pull-down menus of GIMP 3.0?
Or is it just the development status of GIMP 2.99 and it's themes?

   

Does anybody know?

So I asked about this a few years ago, and as I had to reinstall GIMP, I'm running into the issue with creating custom hotkeys.

What I want to do is assign 'P' as the path tool, but no matter what I do, GIMP still has 'B' as its hotkey. I've gone to preferences and tried defining them there, and even keyboard shortcuts, but nothing works. It still has 'B' as the shortcut.

I'll attach an image showing this. But you can see I have it assigned as 'P', but it's not applying whatever key I insert.

Any help would be awesome.

Edit: Just to add; I'm using GIMP 2.8.22

SOLVED

I have no problem using my XP Pen Deco Fun tablet in Gimp — except for the "aspect ratio" (which may or may not be the best terminology). The pressure sensing feature works wonderfully, and I'm really excited about using a pen instead of a mouse. It's important to note that I've never experienced problems using this pen tablet with any other app. //UPDATE: I just discovered that it does the same thing in Krita. It does not do it in MS Paint or web apps (such as Kleki.com).// I have experienced this same drawing problem on two different laptops (different, and yet both are running Win 10 Home 64). This is a really obvious problem (as you will see in the attached gif), but I've been unable to track down anyone else with a similar problem. I feel like there ought to be a setting somewhere for this. Why do such advanced programs like Gimp and Krita have a problem when basic applications (like Paint) have no issue? It's mysterious to me. 

Thank you in advance for any advice. 

I forgot to mention that, in the gif, I am tracing a round object. What comes out as an oval ought to be a circle.
