Running 2.10.22 on OSX Big Sur 11.3. Whenever I click and drag to draw a line, it just creates a dot where I start and every time I stop. Happens with every drag and click tool. Changing size, color, etc does not help. Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi! 

I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to use the drop shadow filters, but unfortunatly the button is not available in my GIMP. I thought, perhaps it is because of my language settings, but i've also tried to change them via preferences, which did not help. 

Please see attached print screen! 

Thanks

I just downloaded GIMP 2.10 on my new mac. I changed the security settings so it should be opening, yet it's not responding. GIMP was working on my old pc with the same settings. It's been stuck on "Verifying" for 1-2 hours now in the background. Is there anything I can do to fix it?

How can I use Nik-Collection filters in GIMP 2.10 on Linux Mint

Stripes, easy to make in gimp but if one want more complicated ones, then it can be time consuming. In this case Easy to Stripe Generator 2.0 can help you: 
http://www.stripegenerator.com
Just play with the sliders and download the generated work of art as png file. There is also a possibility to load ready made stripes:
- click on 'Your Stripes'
- click on one of the stripes examples or in the text page below the examples
- click on the small button next to the example:  play with tile
- now you can download the stripes as png file or change the stripes using the sliders and the download your work.
To use the stripes png file in gimp :
- load the png file
- select / all
- edit / copy
- make a new canvas (File / New)
- use the Bucket Fill Tool to fill the canvas with the stripes

On my website I apply SVG filters to black and white images.
The effect is a multitone effect achieved by gradient mapping the black and white image with feColorMatrix.

Normally I use black and white pictures with a high contrast for a better multitone effect, but sometimes still doesn't look good enough, so I might need to adjust other parameters then contrast.

What I want is to open a black and white image in Gimp, import my multitone svg filter and apply it to the image as a layer or otherwise so I can see the effect (I don't know if this is possible), and while the effect is on, change the contrast and other parameters of the black and white image to see the output with the filter on...

Any recommendations how to achieve this in Gimp (or in other software)?
I am not sure that Gimp can load an .svg file as a layer, and render the filter on the image just like browsers do.

I am trying to create a new file, using "Create from Clipboard", from a rectangular image on Clipboard but the image that is pasted is square. (ie only part of the image is displayed)
I have tried with several rectangular images with the same result.
It appears that my Gimp is defaulting to a square format.
How do I free it to respond to the dimensions of the image on clipboard.
(When I past the image to MS Word it pastes the correct dimensions)
thanks

Hi, I saw a mockup PSD which uses " Smart Object " to customise.



Can we offer something like this as a .xcf file ? Or create using GIMP and then provide as a PSD ? Thanks.

Hello! Whenever I select a colour, it doesn't show up as that colour when I draw on the picture. It's either a less saturated form or a different colour entirely. My brush mode is set to normal, and I can't think of any other way to fix this. I'm using version 2.10.22. Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I have just started using Gimp 2.10.22 on windows 10 and I get these error messages at start up.
   
   
   

Still seems to work ok so far, but don't know if this will cause a problem later. Any comments?

Thanks
