List layers without loading image? |

Using python-fu, is there a way to list the layer names of an xcf file without loading the whole file?
Right now I list them like this:
Code:
image = pdb.gimp_file_load(some_filepath,same_filepath)
for l in image.layers :
print(l.name)
gimp.delete(image)
The problem is that I use it on many very heavy xcfs and the listing can take a few minutes, which I feel could be improved.
I can find the layer names in the gibberish of the xcf when I open it with a text editor (Atom) but don't see a recurring pattern around so not sure this can be exploited by a direct text search in the file.
Any chance of there being an efficient solution?

Interleaving layers of two GIFs of different sizes |

Hello! Newcomer here. I have two GIFs (let's say A.gif and B.gif) both with an equal amount of frames, but their size is different. They need to be interleaved: A-Layer1 -> B-Layer1 -> A-Layer2 -> B-Layer2 and so on.
How do I achieve this? There seems to be no automatic option from what I can tell, but there has to be. Is there something I'm missing? Or do I need a plugin for this?
I'd do it manually, except working with 1152*2=2304 layers... oof. It's actually making my computer lag at points, making doing it manually feel even more awful than it otherwise would've been.
EDIT: OK, I may be stupid, I did see ofn-interleave-layers as a google result, but misread what it does, though it could only interleave copies of one layer between the image layers. And its documentation ALSO lists how to change image size with canvas commands without scaling.
I'm leaving this thread in case someone else needs it, I've seen enough "nevermind, figured it out" online to want to leave a tip. I haven't tested the script YET, but it should work.

How use a png with a transparent background as a mask |

I am trying to add an arrow pointer onto a picture (and plan to do a lot). I have added a png of the arrow, which I know has a transparent background, to a second layer. I have tried to set it up as a mask, but dont understand the finer details - it just stays as a complete rectangle. NB: Have successfully re-sized it & am trying to rotate it. I am new to GIMP, but IT competent.

Outline Disappears ... |

Greetings Folks,
I just re-installed GIMP 2.10.22 (rev 3.0) on brand new Mac M1 Mini. I've noticed that when I use the rectangle or ellipse tool, - I draw the shape. Then I attempt to use the "bucket fill" to colour the shape in, but the outline of the shape that was once visible is now INVISIBLE. So you can actually see where the shape is on the canvas, and your guessing as to where it went.
I'm not sure if this is a setting somewhere, or a bug ? or ?
Anyone have any ideas ? - I'd greatly prefer not going back to illustrator.
Best Wishes,
-scatterbrainz
