  Cant export psd anymore
Posted by: Princess_LadyNicola - 07-09-2020, 08:59 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

[Image: a6anJnf]
I can no longer export to psd. Everytime I try this message box pops up. 
What can I do?

Picture not working

"Calling error for procedure 'gimp-item-get-image':
Procedure 'gimp-item-get-image' has been called with value '3' for arument item (#1, type GimpitemID) This value is out of range[Image: a6anJnf]


I uninstalled GIMP .10 completely and reinstalled it. Fixed the problem. What if it happens again? Or what caused it?

  Font doesn't appear after adding it
Posted by: SonEfAdam - 07-08-2020, 01:27 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello. I added a font and refreshed the font list. It didn't appear. I restarted GIMP. It still didn't appear. So I just gave up and used Pixlr. The next day I opened GIMP and the font was there. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Exclamation Gimp won't reopen a saved xcf file!
Posted by: godmoney - 07-07-2020, 10:10 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello!

I've encountered a really weird issue with Gimp and saved xcf files. After doing some work and saving as an xcf, nothing displays when I return to that work if I have closed Gimp entirely. My layers will display in the Layers dialog to my right, but all I see is a transparent layer. Everything is "visible" according to the eyes next to each layer. I also noticed that I cannot click on ANYTHING within Gimp - it just won't work. Does anyone have a clue to this? I'm using 2.10 on a fully updated MacBook Pro.

Bug Old-photo-bakumatu incompatible with 2.10.21
Posted by: Krikor - 07-07-2020, 06:45 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (6)

Hi,
Win10, Gimp 2.10.21 Sam's Portable, Script old-photo-bakumatu.scm.

I got this script from a link provided by @Nidhogg at http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=...10#p237580, and I really like it, both the results it produces directly and the possibilities it allows to be added manually after its execution.

It has always worked in the previous 2.10 versions I have used of Gimp, but in this current version (2.10.21 Sam's Portable) unfortunately it does not seem to be compatible and has errors and does not run completely.

The error messages are always as shown below, with the exception of the value called for the Plasma plugin (plug-in-plasma), these values always change, even for the same image.
   

I wish someone could fix this script, make it functional again.

Thanks in advance!

Question Create partially removed old sticker
Posted by: BEYSTE - 07-06-2020, 01:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi,

I know it's a bad habit, that the first post of someone mostly is a question, but here I am searching the complete web for an answer without finding one.
Here is what I am trying to achieve: I want to create a top view picture of a wooden board, where are a lot of stickers are attached. But I want them to look old, like somebody tried to clean the board, so the stickers are partially removed and they should look old.
I did not find any tutorial showing this specific task. (I have to say I am nothing near a designer, so my knowledge is very basic, that's why I need tutorials.)
Until now I made the stickers look old by duplicating the original sticker layer. The original layer is set to "Multiply" and opacity to 50%. The duplicated layer is set to "Burn" and opacity to 70%. As the last step I added and old paper texture at the bottom layer.  (Tutorial for creating old maps/paper)
I also tried to play around a bit with the layer mask to create this "ripped off"-effect. I did not get these white marks, which are present when a sticker is ripped off.
I also created a script to do the steps (without the layer mask). And I wrote a small C# app, to randomly positioning and rotating all the stickers on my background. (I am a C# developer, so it was easier for me to do it in C#)
Here are two samples of what I want to achieve:
[Image: partially-removed-political-stickers-con...R7T5F3.jpg] 
[Image: img-20150719-wa0001.jpg]

The second is 100% what I want the stickers to look like.
Does anyone here have an idea how I can create such a look? The best would be if there were any scripts/filters, because I want to have at least 100 stickers on the board. But any advice would help.

Thanks in advance!

  How do I remove the default tool settings, default gradients, default patterns...
Posted by: mholder - 07-04-2020, 11:18 PM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (7)

Gimp comes with a bunch of legacy patterns, gradients, tool presets, palettes, and so on.

I rarely use any of them and I want to remove most of this stuff.

I am using flatpak Gimp on Mint 19.

Any idea how I can remove these things?

  Boundary warp
Posted by: msdobrescu - 07-03-2020, 12:17 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello, I make panos with Hugin. The results boundaries are not rectangular.
I need to crop them. Is there a deformation technique to get the most of them, similar to the boundary warp tool in Photoshop?

Note, I have added a feature request here: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/4679, but until somebody implements it, if somebody will, I need an workaround. I am sure it is not trivial.

Thank you.

  file extensions
Posted by: FrankJClarke - 07-03-2020, 03:45 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I am new to forums so I hope I am asking the right people.

Anyway, I am confused after I export  3 files (say a .dds file and .psd file and a .png file) to a directory.  When I go to the windows explorer to view the files, they all appear to be the same.  I can't tell the difference between the .dds file and the .psd file because they have all been written over with a GIMP 2.10 file extension.  I would simply like the file to be exported as filename.dds or filename.png.   Instead I get filename.GIMP 2.10 and filename.GIMP 2.10.  Can this be disabled or is there a way to rename them without the GIMP part?

I hope someone can help.

  How To Make Transparent Signature
Posted by: abrogard - 07-02-2020, 11:49 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

'Transparent signature' meaning eliminate all the background.  I have followed instructions to do this with apparent success - make alpha channel, select by colour,  delete,  see the background change to a checkerboard.  Export as png.

All well and good but when I put it on my documents the background either eliminates, I mean writes over in white, what is underneath or somehow forces a move of what's underneath so that it kind of slides out of the way.

That's in Libre Writer.

Have a done the signature thing wrongly or is that the best we get?  Or is it a Libre prob?

  G'mic plugin 2.9.1 for gimp 2.10.20
Posted by: sgtisixpack - 07-02-2020, 11:29 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

I was watching this tutorial and he suggested G'MIC.  There is a filter called debanding noise, I need it badly.  I was trying to do it manually but I can see the previews are working.  Just the plugin has errors and crashed once.  I really need this or a filter from another plugin that works in 2.10.20.  I installed it to the default location.  Here is a screenshot of the error ( I had a different error with a different filter but this filter is what I needed).

And the before and after screenshot (preview can show "difference").
