V2.10.20

I meticulously followed this video. Wrote down every step
https://youtu.be/JW_siMWqnr4
and applied the technique to a couple of B&W.jpg images. Worked fine. Was able to apply skin tones, hair tone  etc as in the video.

Today I try another couple B&Ws. I get as far as ready to paint the first layer (skin tone) but nothing happens. I wipe the brush over the image and it stubbornly stays B&W.

Went over the video again and over my notes. And redid from scratch again. No go.

I then reloaded one of the earlier xcf images that worked before (still unfinished)
Same thing. Paintbrush does nothing.  Newly created palettes make no difference.

I re-installed GIMP just in case. Nope Same dead end. 

Completely baffled!

Hello,
I have a text file with 1,000 names separated by a newline char, I need to grab each name print it on a template, and save the image, I was wondering if there is any script available. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards

Hello i placed the "ofn-path-to-shape"-extension into the folder, where gimp wants it´s plugins to go and used "refresh scripts" under "script fu".
Where is this extension now, that i can use it?

Is it possible to make a part of the image bulge like in a 3D sticker ? Say there is a sword in the image, can we make it bulge out from the rest of the image ? Thanks.

Is there a tool or plugin to enable manual color transform?
I means, transform color of selected regions numerically, based on fixed formula, or scripting/coding.
For example, in the simplest form, something like out.alpha = in.alpha * 0.75.
In more advanced form, also being able to read nearby pixels or any pixels.

I am getting errors like this on almost all GMIC previews. Brushify shows the preview if it matters. Thanks.

   

I am using default 20.04. I wonder whether it is possible to use the latest GMIC and associated features.

Does a default 20.04 support the latest of GIMP ? I am using an App image suggested through this forum. I currently use @rich2005 provided GMIC, which I was told is a custom one and was added manually. The app image is GIMP + plugins. Thanks.

I recently tried to make a banner. The background was nice, but I guess antialiasing with very visible steps like blocks is really hard to miss. Especially when the image size is not small. Is there anything we can do about this ? Thanks.

After I changed print size, and clicked on File/Print..., print.exe crashed.
I had directed printing to PDFXchange Lite, to produce a PDF file.

Any thoughts on what I can look for?

Gimp reported:
  Plug-in crashed: "print.exe"
  (C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\print\print.exe)

There is a message box:

  Printing Progress
  Spooling
  [A52070_XBD] (imported)

I cannot make the message box close.  (I don't know which executable made it.)

A52070_XBD.tif size on disk is 1.55 GB

In Print Size, I set Print Size to 6.00 x 6.189 inches, which made
X, Y resolution 3872.5, 3872.5 pixels/in.

From Image Properties:

Size in pixels: 23235 x 23968 pixels

Hello guys,

I can't remember when I first encountered this, but I think it was when 2.10 released. Why does the Select>Float function feather the edges of the selection? The previous versions were hard splits, now once you float, there is transparency between the old and new layers.

Is there a way to turn this off?

Is floating a selection not the best way?
