Hello. I am very new to scripting and plug-ins in general. I am trying to create a script that works with BIMP (Batch processing of GIMP) that gets the metadata from each image and updates selected fields while keeping the non-updated ones. I mainly want to update the Copyright of each of the images that are batch processed. I know I can use exiftool for this, but I am also using BIMP for more than just editing metadata and would like to only use BIMP for all these purposes. I know I need to use pdb.gimp_image_get_metadata(image) and pdb.gimp_image_set_metadata(image,data). But I just don't know how to code the script to do what I want it to do.

Thank you in advance!

Has anyone tried using MathMap with the latest 2.10.28 version of GIMP? I'm a bit wary of trying it as I couldn't get it to work with 2.10.24 and reverted back to 2.10.22.

Hi there folks,

I was wondering whether there's a way to take a photograph and simplify the colours in order to give it a "painted on" look. It's difficult to describe, but I have a photo of a cat that I would like to incorporate onto a flag in a way so that it looks similar to the California state flag (with the bear). Can anybody help? Cheers.

Hi,

Let say we have a layer with some lines, it can be pen or brush or something else ; that does no matter, I can take any of them for the following purpose : I would like to change the thickness of an already drown line through someting like options, preferences, etc.

Is it please possible ?

Best regards.

Greetings,

I'm running gimp 2.10.20 on a Windows 10 pro machine.

I recently tried to upgrade a set of filters/plug-ins that I have been using successfully for a while.

I followed the instructions to tell gimp where to find plug-ins and send a message to say that the new folder and being recognised and will be saved.

I closed the gimp started it again and recognised performed and displayed the plug-ins/filters.

When I tried to apply filter to an image and image it did not work..

I would be grateful for any ideas on how to fix this

Regards

Was working on colorizing an image. Usually clicking the palette icon a displays list of all available palettes, including the ones I created.  But suddenly they all disappeared except the last one I created. All the others have vanished into thin air. Relaunching or loading another job makes no difference. How do I get them back?

The 'chop' plugin from Ottia Tuota gave me the idea to experiment with gimp paths and animated light. Is there a plugin / script that chop a path in linear calculated pieces or in exponential calculated pieces ? I also want to know if there exist a plugin / script that can set chopped paths as even or uneven numbered paths active. Or is there a plugin / script that set paths active with a given period and starting from a given number ? As example starting from path named 'path1' with a period value 4, then 'path2' with a period value '4' and so on. Thanks for your answer in advance.

Hi folks (Me again)
I have started trying to get my head around Layer Modes. I have downloaded a tutorial which is not too heavy, and hope this will be a start. However, the tutorial mentions a Script-Fu plug in (Copy layer mask from above). I can't seem to find it and was wondering if it has been superceded?

Hello, I am trying to apply a difference clouds effect to a specific section of green on my canvas. Right now I'm following a tutorial on Teardown's heightmaps, and they use a difference clouds effect to give the grass layer some texture:
https://youtu.be/aQviv2BuP2c?t=351
This link is timestamped to 5:51, where he uses this effect.
Unfortunately, this tutorial was done in photoshop, and so I can't follow along very easily. I've looked at other forum posts, youtube videos, talked to friends, and I just can't figure out how to use this effect. One source said that the way to do this is to use a solid noise filter on a layer whose mode is set to Difference. This was my best lead, but it turned all the grass pink, and I'm not sure why. 
So to be more clear, I'm asking if there is a way to achieve this effect or something similar in gimp. The grass layer must maintain a red and blue value of 0, or else it will interfere with other aspects of the heightmap. Linked is my current project, so that you can have a better idea of what I'm trying to do.
