I've upgraded my Ubuntu to Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS which comes with new GIMP 2.10.20. My scripts used to work fine with older version of GIMP, but I can't make them work anymore on new GIMP 2.10 no matter how much I try and look on internet.
These are the steps taken after I made a very plain script-fu just for sake of simplicity:
FIRST EXPERIMENT
-----------------------
1) These are my script-fu folders:
3) Then, this error message appears when I refresh scripts:
Error while loading ~/gimp/test.scm: Error: unable to open "[i]~/gimp/test.scm"[/i]
SECOND EXPERIMENT
--------------------------
1) I remove ~/gimp from my script-fu folders and copy test.scm to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts with the rest default GIMP scripts.
2) I go to /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts folder and run gimp -i -b "(test)" -b '(gimp-quit 0)'
3) I get the following error:
Hello! I'm rather new to GIMP and have no prior experience in these types of programs, so do forgive me if the solution to this problem is glaringly obvious.
Anyhow, I have installed a ton of brushes for GIMP, all have been working perfectly...Until today. I open the program to practice some illustrating, and the paintbrush tool is doing this:
It's turning all of my brushes into a big weird chunky block with no definition! Does anyone know the cause of this, and the solution to fix it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Can't figure out what I'm missing here, but I'm selecting just one part of a layer and what to rotate just that (ie. not the entire image or layer); however, after making the selection, the only thing that rotates is the selection outline. The actual image remains unaffected
I installed gimp appimage 2.10.21 in ubuntu 20.04 having extracted it following Rich's advice. Again thanks to Rich I am able to run it from the terminal and by clicking on its icon in activities.
The cherry on the cake would be if I could have it appear as an option in "Open with".
I have searched the net and the advice I have found suggests adding %U at the end of the Exec= line and adding the MIME types to the .desktop file which I got from Rich.
Both of these I have tried without success. Any ideas would be appreciated.
A really old little java program that applies a painting effect. A small choice of four styles. It does come from an earlier era when images where much smaller, so it can look as if nothing is happening, be patient it does not break any speed records. Change any of the settings, remember to click on the Apply Parameters button to update.
Not that small it does require the jre runtime : see: https://java.com/en/download/manual.jsp Linux users can get it from their repo look for OpenJDK Runtime Environment

I made a script that creates xcfs, does a few things and saves them. Problem is, it gradually fills up my memory when I execute it on many files.
The last command of the loop is pdb.gimp_xcf_save. So I wonder if I need to add a command to close the xcf of somehow clear the memory, but I didn't find such a thing.
Any idea?
Hi,
While I am sure this must be a common problem, I haven't found any post about it.
It is common knowledge that we should flatten the layers of an image before exporting it, e.g. in .tif.
However, in haste we tend to forget, and the resulting file is corrupted. Not only it can't be opened, but I can't delete it either.
I tried everything suggested on the net related to the deletion of corrupted file, including rebooting in safe mode, but can't do.
I tried many times and on three different computers to open any one of the plugin executible (exe) files in the GIMP plugin folder in order to extract the plugins's dll file. I keep getting an error message stating that the "application is unable to start correctly" and nothing happens. The error code given is 0xc000007b. Please see the attached picture.
I've tried everything including removiing and reinstalling versions of Microsoft Visual C ++, updating the NVIDIA drivers, reinstalling GIMP, installing various dll files and other things. No luck.
I'm assuming that if I can extract the dll files from their respective exe files in the GIMP plugin folder (about 130 of them) and then install them in that folder, that I will be able to add these plugins in GIMP. Am I assuming correctly?
Has anyone experienced this issue and if so, have can you provide a fix?
