Hi am a GIMP newby, and was wondering if it is possable to Export a file that LibreOffice can use to add script to the file.

An eye-opening series on fortifications:

I have an image with a picture and a caption. I'd like to rotate the entire image so that the caption is perfectly horizontal. Is there a way to do this other than by eye?

Hi, I have a .gif file with 27 frames, all white background. Is it possible to clear the white background from all the layers without manually handling them one by one? Thanks.

Using Gimp 2.10.30 (32 bit) I was working on a 15,000 x 20,000  size image, and noticed that gimp was reporting the project size as 11.8 Gig (see attached).  Once I eventually exported the image... the final file size was only 135 MB.  But, I'm surprised that 32 bit gimp can count up that high?   What was actually going on behind the scenes allowing this to happen?




Additionally, this particular project involved my "quilting" together 10 fairly large tiles of a map, into a single image. This required SUBSTANTIAL moving, tilting, scaling, and redoing a large number of operations in order to get all the roadways to line up properly.

SO there is little doubt in my mind that I had a considerable amount of memory tied up, in the form  of "undo" operations.

Is there a good way to tell gimp to release "undo memory" during the course of a protracted multi stage project.

For example, once I had 6 of my 10 tiles edited and placed perfectly,  all the memory being held to save the "undo" operations up to that point, could be put to better use if released.

If that seems like an unusual ambition, consider that I came to this point the hard way.  The first time through the assembly of this quilt,  4 hours in and working on the 10th tile.....I did run out of memory....and the end result was not rewarding.  

So, this question is more or less a think-back to what I coulda/shoulda/woulda have done.

Hello All,

I was excited to see GIMP supports Scheme so I took a crack at generating some procedural camouflage.
Overall it was easy and I'm happy with my effect.
There seems to be one slight error and that is that my topmost layer seems to be drawn transparent if you use my default colors when running the script.
To run the script open a fresh blank image and then select the script.



My code is here:

The xcf image in question I'll attach.

If you disable all layers except for the first you'll see you can see the checkerboard showing through.

Hi, is it possible to convert a PNG into .cur and a set of PNGs into .ani using GIMP? I currently have SVG, can convert it into PNG to use as cursor files in Windows 10 and 11. Thanks.

Hi there,
I have a piece of artwork I've added to Gimp and am trying to scale to certain dimensions. I was my understanding that if you use the scale tool and insert either the new desired height and width of the drawing (and the scale is locked), and press 'scale', that it would automatically re-scale it to fit the dimensions, however, it doesn't seem to fit the specified dimensions exactly, with gaps showing on either the sides or top/bottom. 
Any idea how to get it to scale a drawing to a specific size?
