Ooops...I deleted the thread instead of my last post. This the same question from another forum. Many apologies. - rich

We need to Convert the Color TIFF into JPEG (version 1.02). We have tried to converting the above format using some application, the version is not coming correctly (version 1.01 is coming). Customer requirement is JPEG 1.02.

So Kindly let us know any application for converting this format.

Hi,
using MAC Big Sur 11.2.3. and GIMP 20.10.22 there is a problem with the selection view.
I can't activate the selection view. Neither works shortcut (⌘ T) nor helps selection via Menue.

Also strange: All shortcuts seem to be deactivated (see red bubbles), wich is not true however. Except selection view they work, I tried.
THere are no checks showing up in front of the selected item/function, even if they are on (see blue bubbles).

Is this a bug with the new Apple System? Do I miss out any presetting?
Thanks for helping in beforehand!

   

I think I may need to take a break.  Time flies by, when I use Gimp, faster than seemingly any other task not related to real life.  Many computer tasks seem arduous and time drags to a halt. Oftentimes, even while doing something as normally enjoyable as browsing the Internet, time kind of slows down.

Not with Gimp though.  While doing anything in Gimp, I can be an hour into something, and I honestly think it's only been about 10 or 15 minutes. 

Another indication I may be Gimping too much is that when watching television, I constantly see scenes that I think I could make better in Gimp.   I start thinking about what filter I would run on this or that image I see in a commercial or on a show.  The font in that commercial looks outdated and it's not even centered or maybe it could use some stroking, etc...

I may see an old barn while driving or a building or even a tree, and think about how it would look better colorized in Gimp and could definitely use some curve and level adjustment. This or that street could do with some fresh stripes and some darkening of the asphalt.

Okay, "I" think I 've used I enough in one post and was just interested in if any of you have ever had times when Gimp was following you from the computer world over into the real world? I'm not asking for any psychological help  but am curious to know if you've ever used GIMP so much that you think about it away from a computer, tablet, or laptop screen?

Hi,

I used to use Gimp on linux for more than ten years. But since working on a windows computer (which is way better eqipped than my old linux laptop) loading and especially exporting pictures to jpg is excruciating slow. Opening a jpg takes 7 seconds. When I export it to jpg it takes 5 seconds for the window to appear that asks me if I want to compress it and so forth and after that it's another 12 seconds before the little window disappears and the file has been saved.

This also happened with the gimp version before this one.

I am running a Mac, want to get big gimpin plugin V3.
I can only find one download, is the plugin for both windows & ios ?
I don't want to pay for it if it only works with windows.

I am trying to work out the best way to use clone stamp to make changes to multiple layers of an image at the same time.

I have a project that has 5 layers each layer is a different part of a PBR texture, top layer is an albedo map, then I have a normal map, height map etc...
I am trying to make changes to each layer at the same time using the clone stamp, the goal here is to perform standard clone stamp operations but have the exact same clone stamp changes applied to all the layers at the same time.

In addition it would be good to be able to preview the image that I am editing as a tiled image.

what is the quickest most flexible way to do this kind of work?

Thanks

Hi all, 

Recently I started editing and I'm trying to learn GIMP. Now I have a question I'm hoping you could help me with. 

When I change something in e.g. colour balance and press ok, the next time I open it, everything is back to zero, while the picture is clearly edited. So I can't reset or adjust stuff, except for using ctrl Z, or using the undo history. If I use the undo history however, all the changes I made past the colour balance are also undone. Is there any way to fix this?

Thank you in advance!

Hello there.

First post here, so I'm sorry if I've posted in the wrong section or something.

Anyway, I know I can export a .xcf file as a .psd file and open it in Photoshop. The problem is: when I open it, the layers are all there but the paths are gone.

Opening the recently exported .psd file in GIMP will yield the same results: layers but no paths, so I think the path info is deleted from the file.

Question: Is there a way to convert xcf to .psd without losing paths?

Thanks for the attention.

I'm trying to modify a script with the two basic commands: 
1.Select a free selection with a series of points
2.Fill that selection with the foreground at 75% opacity

To do command 1 I use the line:
pdb.gimp_image_select_polygon(image,CHANNEL_OP_REPLACE,3,[width/2.0,height/2.0,x0,y0,x1,y1])

The array at the end is filled with variables I define elsewhere. I try to test this in the python console on a file I've called test.xcf to see how I can expect the syntax to react. The line looks like 

pdb.gimp_image_select_polygon('test.xcf',CHANNEL_OP_REPLACE,3,[640,480,700,600,500,600])

But I get this error :Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: wrong parameter type

What Can I do? I assume I'm calling the image wrong but I'm not sure what to call it
--------------------------------------------------------
For command 2 I'm using:
pdb.gimp_edit_bucket_fill(drawable,BUCKET_FILL_FG,LAYER_MODE_NORMAL_LEGACY,75,0,FALSE,0,0)

I figure I can run this line in the console or in code and it should have the same effect: as long as there's a selection on the page then it'll just fill with the foreground. But when I test the syntax I'm met with:
NameError: name 'drawable' is not defined

So what do I call the selection then? I figure this should be simple but I'm just not sure what words I should use.

Additionally: The modifications I'm making to my script now call numpy in. Will this be an issue if I already have numpy installed on my machine, or do I have to specifically install it onto gimp?
