I'm relatively new to gimp.
I took some pics of a lady friend. Her husband says that she is sensitive about the discoloration of her teeth. It looks like she has caps on the bottom of her two top front teeth.

I tried:
making a new layer
using the lasso selector, select the darker area of the two teeth
in the colors menu, selected and decreased the Hue-saturation. (didn't work)

Appreciate your help.

1st language is English.
I would like to add a second language (French) to the Text tool,
so that Mid-sentence I can switch between the two languages.

For example to get the accent grave over the 'e', etc. etc.

Can someone please tell me how to do this?

If I am in the Text tool and change the Language on the bottom left side
to French, there is no change at all to what I type. 

Is there a way to set a default folder for opening and saving files?  For one reason or another I have to reopen Gimp maybe a freeze in Gimp or my computer has to be booted for some reason.

Every time I open Gimp it wants to go to recent files and then I have to navigated down through a file tree to get to the folder that contains my files.  Then I have to remember to navigate once again to save a file to the same file folder or files end up where I don't want them.  Once I do it once in a session it remembers for the rest of the session.

Can I set this up to remember the same folder I use for all of my Gimp work?  I haven't found anything in edit preferences.

Last night I decided to install GIMP 2.10.28 from the Panda Jim PPA.
Thanks to all the information and files provided by Rich, it was a straightforward and simple process.

I now have a fully working installation with the latest GMIC.

From a couple of weeks ago. Probably the last decent day of the year where I live. Normally I do not scramble a photograph with any 'artistic' type plugin but the original is not that much interesting. This a gmic filter, very colourful.  The building in the center (in my youth) was a really dubious pub, alas now 'gentrified, all the character has gone. 

   

A plug-in I'm developing (in pythonfu), which does batch processing on multiple xcf files, performs several times faster when I use ~3 threads compared to when I use all my CPU threads (32) or some good percentage of it (24). Not sure why, I guess either the RAM or SSD drive is choking when I use too many threads.

Right now I can control the number of threads by going in Gimp's preferences but I would like to keep it high when I use Gimp's interface and low for my plug-in, so I would need a way to change or override it from within the code of my plug-in, so as to not do it manually every time I use it.

I didn't find a config file where this could be changed via text replacement, nor did I find any command for it.

Also I can't do it by forcing the entire plug-in to use less threads because it contains a progress bar which needs some CPU power in order to not freeze.

Is it at all possible ?

In gimpfu, TRUE is not a boolean but an instance:

Somehow I messed up my screen layout.  Now I have two side panels on each side of the working area.  Before there was only one column on each side.  It still provides the same functionality but uses extra space limiting my working area.  I prefer the way it was before but can't figure out how to get the display like it  was before.

It somehow happened after installation of my new 32 in IPS monitor and using the 27 as a second monitor.  I don't see how this would change my Gimp display.  I did try to open a new view for the second monitor but so far haven't been able to get something useful.

My concern is the change in layout in Gimp losing working space.

   

Hi,

Can you please help me with the correction of the photo when there is a sun shining on the part of the face.
I have this part of photo when I see to much sun and it making shadow areas. The rest of the face is in shadow so instead of removing the shadow, I would need to remove just this piece of unwanted reflection and make the half of the forehead simliar to the other one.

   

Do you have idea if this can be corrected or I can just get rid of this photo?

Thanks,
Miso
