Just installed Resynthesizer plugin and trying to understand how it works but the heal transparency does not seem to do whay I have seen in a tutorial.
To start with the eraser does not make a transparent slection on the picture instead it is black unless I add  alpha channel
Then the heal transparence tool does fix but fixes black and leaves the spot I cleared and creats messages about something wrong and also leaves , see file

  Gimp 3.0.2- Problem merging down layers
Posted by: Mel987 - 07-22-2025, 03:00 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi! I need to emerge some layers, but when I try to do so the program erases one of them instead of emerging them (if I use emerge down) or most of them (If I try to add my layers to a group to emerge it as a whole, most of them become invisible before I even try to emerge them), and I don't know why. This problem only presents with one file so I don't think it's a problem with my Gimp or its configuration, but I've been only working with Gimp for a few months, so I don't know much about the program or how to solve this problem. Thanks for the help!

(Please forgive any grammatical errors, English isn't my first language)

Windows 11 (64-bit)
GIMP 3.0.4

I select the correct layer that I have add Grid Lines.

I use the Rotate Tool with Layer selected and rotate 60 degrees.

Grid lines merely offset to upper left instead of rotating 60 degrees.

  Can not save or export pictures, button is off the bottom of page
Posted by: Holographic Breathing - 07-21-2025, 11:34 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I cannot save or export pictures; the button is off the bottom of the page.

Here is a video showing the problem. This was before I found out that the button was off the bottom of the page.

But even now, there is still no way of getting to the button.

If you know a way of accessing the Button, please let me know.



Sorry if I was very stressed and annoyed when I made this video.


Any help appreciated, thank you in advance.

  [Python] In-memory save png
Posted by: DunkleMaterie - 07-19-2025, 08:34 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (4)

Hello,

I don't know, whether such a feature is realizable without certain changes to the Gio, but let me just describe my intent:

In a plugin, I want to send an "copy" of current image to a service using urllib.request.Request. Currently, I save the png image as usual using Gimp.file_save(), reopen it to read the data as bytes and attach them to a boundarized body. Then I send this body using the content-type 'multipart/form-data; boundary=xxxx' to the web service. I get an answer, evaluate the response and add the retrieved image to a new created layer. This all is working well and stable.

But I just want to get rid of storing the image into a file and read it again to a byte buffer. Already tried Gio.File.new_for_uri() and point the uri to memory, but my current knowledge for this aspect of the Gio library is literally not existent  Big Grin

Maybe there is a more elegant way to implement a in-memory file storage, as the export to PNG format is crucial.

Does someone has an approach in mind and could give me some pointers to study?

Thanks

  copy sequence of filters applied in one image to other image
Posted by: estatistics - 07-19-2025, 03:50 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I want to copy the sequence of filters applied in one image to other image.

I cant remember either their values or the queue of the filters. I knwo how to use under history, and recently used filters. 

I want the easiest way to apply it. 

Chatgpt suggested to save the image as xcf, copy visible from edit, and then paste as new layer. Dont work. It copy the image as whole not only the filter that i have applied to this image. 

How i can copy a batch of filters applied to an image as edits to another image?

  Python Snippets for GIMP 3
Posted by: pixelmixer - 07-19-2025, 01:21 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (4)

Hi all,

I’m familiar with Script-Fu, but I know nothing about Python scripting. (GIMP 3)
I’m testing a macro system and would really appreciate some small, self-contained Python snippets that can run with a button press, just something minimal to confirm it's working.

Any suggestions or examples would be cool.

Thanks!

  Gimp 3.0.4 Appimage by IvanHC, fully working
Posted by: vitforlinux - 07-19-2025, 11:44 AM - Forum: Alternate Gimp packagings - No Replies

The 3.0.2 version of Gimp AppImage by IvanHC was too lightweight and did not work completely, but with Gimp GIT, one could survive.

Today I read on my GitHub that the issues are resolved, the new 3.0.4 Works!

To download it:
https://github.com/ivan-hc/GIMP-appimage...ous-stable

G'mic is not supported.

  text tool
Posted by: inemar - 07-19-2025, 05:53 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

After copying a text in OpenOffice, I cannot paste it into the text of the Text tool. Nothing happens but I receive the message underneath  (I translate French into English): "There is no image data in the clipboard".
Thank you for suggestions.
