So I’ve dabbled in scripting before but am not super well versed in it. However, I just took on a position at my job doing image editing for our online webstore. I’m able to do it easy enough in GIMP, but it’s doing the same edit over and over and I know that there has to be a way to script it so that I can do so more efficiently, I just have been having a hard time trying to understand how to write the script. I have access to Python-fu and Script-fu, but would prefer to use Python. 
So here’s what I do to each image. Once I’ve gone through and manually selected what I need to, I do the same series of actions every time, and this is what I’m trying to script:

1. Layer > Transparency > Add Alpha Channel

2. Edit > Clear (or Hit Delete)

3. Deselect (Not absolutely necessary)

4. Image > Canvas Size > Height: 950 > Width: 950 > Center > Resize

5. File > Export As > ‘file name’.png > Export (Exporting the image and changing it from jpg to png)


And that’s it. I open an image, select the background, and then do those same steps every single time. So I was wondering if anyone could help me figure out the script for doing this every time. It would expedite the process to go so much quicker and I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Is there a way to fix images with distorted round objects to perfect round objects? I think of a plugin / script where one can place a few points on the distorted circle or use a path / selection. Playing with the different gimp tools is time consuming to get a good result. An example to correct :
   

I hope someone here will help with a problem that repeatedly happens and basically (overnight, it seems!) has made GIMP unusable:

I open a photo.  Highlight some area.  Hit either Edit > Cut, Edit > Copy, or Cntl-x or Cntl-c, and poof, GIMP crashes.  Every time.

It doesn't seem to matter the size of the document or area I'm trying to copy.

I saw some thread on another forum saying if on has CopyQ installed that may cause issues, but I don't believe I do.  (I'm running Lubuntu 20.04LTS, a vanilla install, nothing modified.  It's LXQt, if that matters.  And my system is a newish Dell with 40GB of RAM, so I doubt it's a memory problem.)

I desperately need to fix this or find a work around.  Here's the output when I run GIMP from the command line:

me@home:~$ gimp
using gegl copy

(gimp:248888): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 22:06:25.414: IA__gdk_window_get_events: assertion 'GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed

(gimp:248888): Gdk-CRITICAL **: 22:06:25.414: IA__gdk_window_set_events: assertion 'GDK_IS_WINDOW (window)' failed
The program 'gimp' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadWindow (invalid Window parameter)'.
(Details: serial 95997 error_code 3 request_code 18 minor_code 0)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

Thank you in advance for any help.

I followed this tutorial but when I get to the point of applying or hitting okay the progress bar comes up for a couple of seconds but nothing happens. Any insight as to how to make this work?

Remove Anything From A Photograph in Gimp using GMIC

I rotated the screen capture 90 degrees because it would be too long vertically.

As you see below, even though I have changed the UI font size by editing the "gtkrc" file, the icons does not seem to scale. Those images seem to be from share\gimp\2.0\icons\Symbolic-High-Contrast\scalable\apps, and they are vector images (.svg), but they don't scale at all. Whether at I choose Preference->Interface->Icon Theme "Guess icon size from resolution" or "Custom icon size = Huge", the menu icon size does not change.

Is there any way to change the menu icon size? Or is this a bug and there is currently no way to change the menu icon size?

[I’ve been using GIMP for a couple of months.  After creating a new document 11x17 inches, 300dpi, I export a pdf and take it to the printer who says the document is actually over 50” wide.  I’ve spent a lot of time trying to get this right, including watching several instructional videos. 

Maybe when I bring artwork that was shot on my iPhone into GIMP the canvas size changes?  I don’t understand what’s happening here.

Can you help?

Thank you.

Hi,
When creating a preset in Curves using the option:
Save the current settings as named preset, where is this preset saved? in which file?

I searched the drive C:/  but returned nothing in the search.

Hi everyone

I have a set of Clip Studio Paint brushes in the .sut format.
I can't open them with GIMP.

Do you know how to convert those files into .gbr or any other readable format?

Thank you!
