  Problem with file-tiff-save
Posted by: Eonwe - 02-08-2022, 12:39 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (9)

Hello Gimp-Users,

i have the problem that a tiff-file saved with a macro with file-tiff-save can't be opened anymore using file-tiff-load. The load fails with: "RuntimeError: Procedure 'file-tiff-load' returned no return values" 

The file can however be opened using the Gimp-Ui.

I can recreate this behavior by saving a tiff from the UI with having the checkbox for "Layers" marked.
file-tiff-save has no parameters to modify this.

Do you now what the exact issue is and how can I fix this?

Thanks in advance!

is there any plans for Gimp to set up a plugin set up to make it easier to download plugins that we might want to make it simple for us idiots. Apologise if this has been brought up in the past.

  How to retain page size when importing PDF
Posted by: susb8383 - 02-06-2022, 11:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Brand new to GIMP so sorry if this is a stupid question but I couldn't find the answer.

I have a pdf of labels I'm trying to print on stock. If I print directly from Acrobat they fit; the last label starts at about 9.75".

But if I open it in GIMP the last label is about .25 inch too high on the page. So it doesn't seem to be retaining the correct page size when I open it.

It's a standard 8.5 x 11.

I know in Photoshop if I try to do the same thing I have to specify to Crop to Media Box when I import but I don't see a similar option in GIMP.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Exclamation GImp Slow and lags with the paintbrush. (on MacOs BigSur)
Posted by: Qrby - 02-06-2022, 05:29 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (4)

Hello there,

I've been looking for answers for 2months on my issue and the only threads i've found are from people complaining about GIMP running slow and no solution found.

I'm not an expert in programming or computer basically, but is there any manipulation that could solve this issue? Is it possible to go back to a previous version of Mac OS and would it help (in your opinion)?

I loved GIMP because it's a really good app for digital painting. I've never used any other app but since this bug came out i had to. I was hoping a solution would have been found by now but it seems to be a big(Sur Big Grin) issue...

Thanks a lot in advance!


PS: sorry for my english, i hope it's understandable

  Rotating the entire frame of reference
Posted by: cjsmall - 02-05-2022, 10:25 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

GIMP 2.10.30 on Xubuntu 20.04

While performing other operations, I have found that the entire frame of reference for gimp (image, guides, etc.) is rotated by holding Shift-B2 (middle mouse button) and dragging the mouse.  [Note that this is NOT the same as using the Rotate tool to physically rotate the image itself withing the fixed overall frame of reference.]  This always happens accidentally and I have found no way to reset the view back to normal.

Here are my questions:

1: Is this type of rotation documented in the manual?

2: Why would you want to do this?  When you save the "rotated" image it seems to be the same as "non-rotated".

3: Is there any way to reset the view back to the normal exactly orthogonal position?

4: Is there a way to disable the Shift-B2 assignment so that this doesn't happen?

Thanks.
