I am running GIMP 2.10 and 2.8 very sucessfully after following a Rich2005 video. I am trying to install GMIC into both of them but just going around in circles. I have seen many blogs on the subject, but find it all very hard to digest.
I have attached a copy of the address's to which I have tried for 2.8 (2.10 is simlar). I am not sure if I am even trying to install the correct version as I am coming up with heaps of .dll issues. I have read some of the help blogs from Rich, but when I try to follow any of the web addresses he suggests, none of them will open to the appropriate web page.
I have also found that the GIMP version I am using (2.10.28) has some issues with GMIC, but I can't seem to find the solution to install in either version.
Apologies if I treading over much discussed ground, but it is not through lack of trying and heaps of frustration that I have referred to the forum.
Regards

| "rounding" grey scale image from the center |

Hi All,
I am trying to achieve a certain look on a greyscale/height map image for a cnc project I am working on.
Im new to gimp so Ill try to be explicit as Im not sure of exact terms.
I started with an image that only has two colors to my knowledge (or at least doesnt have a lot of colors so that if you looked at a height map of the image it would be mostly 0s and 1s. I switched to greyscale mode and played with contrast and brightness to get the greyscale sharper.
This is where I am.
I am trying to figure out how to basically apply a filter (or modify the values of the pixels in some way ) over that grey scale image I created so that it becomes a height map where the highest point is in the center and as we move towards the edges of the image it gradually falls off in height. so that you get a domed look but still retain details of the image. Is this even a thing that makes sense? Is gimp the right program for this sort of thing?
Appreciate it!

| Questions about how to use API gimp_layer_new() |

When I read the API document of gimp_layer_new(), I'm curious about what are explicit procedure calls in the below quote.
Quote: Other attributes such as layer mask modes, and offsets should be set with explicit procedure calls.
So I looked into gimp source code for this API usage example and find they don't set the mask mode or offset before adding this layer to the image using gimp_image_insert_layer().
Code:
layer = gimp_layer_new (image, _("Background"),
img_a->columns, img_a->rows,
image_type,
100,
gimp_image_get_default_new_layer_mode (image));
gimp_image_insert_layer (image, layer, NULL, 0);
I have the same confusion for gimp_layer_group_new() but I find the code file above calls gimp_layer_set_mode(), gimp_layer_set_opacity() and other APIs as required in the quote below.
Quote:Attributes such as layer mode and opacity should be set with explicit procedure calls.
So the questions are: what is the explicit meaning of the two quotes? which APIs should we call and how? Must we call these APIs?
Thank you very much!

Hi. I am a brand new GIMP user for about 2 days now and I have already learned a lot, thanks to excellent YT tutorials.
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit; GIMP 2.10.28
I need to install this plugin:
https://github.com/apocalyptech/gimp-text-outline
I downloaded the [color=var(--color-fg-muted)][color=var(--color-fg-default)]text-outline.py[/color][/color] file. I copied it to:
C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins
I put in the root folder and restarted GIMP. But, the plugin does not show show under filters, decor where it is supposed to be. I am sure I did not copy it to the right place.
Can someone please advise:
1. If I did it correctly, and
2. where to put the file for the plugin.
Thanks very much.
