I've been fighting this for days now and I need help.  What I thinki should be a simple process is absolutely baffeling.  I have a number of color .jpeg images  and no matter what method I use, fuzzy select (sort of worked but too much edge pixels}, color select, path select, I can't get it to work.  Out of desparation I upgraded from ver 2.1 to 3.0 and still no result.  I finally resorted to picking a no-brainer eazy peazy image, shades of grey, simple shape and still can't get it to work. 
   Although it's going to take a lot more time I think  I've decided to do the path select method.  The problem is that when the path is complete and, following all the directions from tutorials and posted online, I right click and select Select/Selection from paths then delete nothing happens.  I've closed the view and started over several times and zilch.  I'll attach a copy of the image (mug clip2.jpeg).  Somewhere along the way either I'm missing something or maybe there's a glitch in my Gimp.   I appreciate any help.

good day dear experts

the current job  -  re-colorizing in GIMP - which steps to go


i want to re-colorize the dots in the image. How to do this?

I have heard that we can do this with layers  - but at the moment i do not have any clue


   


i really look forward to  any and all ideas

greetings

So say I have 10 images open in GIMP and need to scroll between them quickly, in GIMP 2 I was able to bring my mouse up to the open images bar and use my mouse wheel to scroll left and right, I can't seem to do that in GIMP 3 or figure out how to turn that feature back on, anyone know?

Hello.  First off, I am not a coder, but years ago I managed to write a plugin in GIMP 2.10 to do some basic repetitive tasks like adding solid color layers with masks, in groups and set other various parameters.  The first thing that happens is the original image layer is copied and desaturated.  Honestly, I am struggling with rewriting this simple plug-in in GIMP 3 format...I can't even get anything to show up in the GIMP menus even after copying the code from another GIMP 3 plugin example.  Running it line by line through the python console produces no error.  Could someone look at this basic code to copy a layer, create a new layer and desaturate it and help me understand why I can't even get the plugin to show up in the GIMP menus?  I wish there was a GIMP 2 to 3 converter or a forum group that would help rewrite code specifically for us non-coders.  I just don't understand enough on how to write python code when I cannot find examples to do basic tasks.  Thanks for any feedback you can provide.

The code is attached

I just installed gimp 3.0 and wanted to test the Python Console.
For example, in Gimp 2.10 you could print the layers of an image with this code in the console:

You see, I do look at your latest.   https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp3-t...s/general/

This gives the guides positions, including off canvas, but there is that warning message.

using kubuntu 24.04 / gimp.org Gimp 3.0 Appimage

   

Just installed 3.0.0 for Mac (OSX 13.7.4 Ventura). When I try to change brushes while using the Eraser tool, GIMP will crash. I have recreated this behavior several times now. If I can't get a workaround I'll have to revert to 2.1.

The toolbox is "slaved", for want of a better word, to the first image opened, whatever that image may be. If I move the image window, the toolbox moves with it. I am in multi image mode; I've checked. If I activate a different image and click on a tool (or anything in the toolbox) the first image becomes active and jumps to the top. The effect of this is that I can really only work on one image at a time. Work effectively, that is. I'm probably just missing a new setting or something.

GIMP 3.0.0 (Mac)
Mac OS 13.7.4 Ventura

Hey there, excited to try out the new features.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem: No matter what I try, it seems like 3.0 simply refuses to use pressure sensitivity.
However, when I switch to 2.10, it works (almost) flawlessly.

My computer uses:

• Windows 11
  
• Cintiq 22HD (2012 model)
  

• \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Eraser (Not greyed out)
  - Source/Tool type: eraser
  - Vendor/Product ID: (none)
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Pen stylus (Not greyed out)
  - Source/Tool type: pen
  - Vendor/Product ID: (none)
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• System Aggregated Pointer (Not greyed out)
  (omitted)
  
  
• Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Eraser
  - Source/Tool type: eraser
  - Vendor ID: 056a
  - Product ID: 00fa
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  
• Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Pen Stylus
  - Source/Tool type: pen
  - Vendor ID: 056a
  - Product ID: 00fa
  - Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
  
  

• Core Pointer
  
• WACOM Tablet Eraser
  
• WACOM Tablet Pressure Stylus
  

• Uses "Screen" mode
  
• Shows the "Axes" widget with 6 items (mouse lists "none" for all but the items labelled X and Y)
  
• Shows a curve editor when the Pressure axis is selected.
  

• Restarting GIMP after using the stylus to draw a stroke. (This fixes 2.10 but not 3.0.)
  
• Switching input APIs. (Wintab, Windows Ink)
  
• Updating WACOM drivers and restarting.
  
• Unplugging and replugging the tablet into a different USB port.
  
• Enabling/Disabling "Pressure Compatability" in the driver software under Wacom Tablet Properties > Options...
  
• Enabling/Disabling "Use Windows Ink" in the driver software.
  
  
• In the Configure Input Devices dialog, removing all of the greyed out devices. (This was a recommended fix for earlier versions of GIMP.)
  
• Various combinations of the above while restarting GIMP.
