I installed GIMP 2.10.22 on Windows 10, choosing Swedish as language. After searching for tutorials I realised there was very little in Swedish. I had also changed things around and wanted a new fresh standard installation that would look like in the tutorials.

I uninstalled GIMP and installed it again, this time choosing English. To my surprise I got a Swedish version again, and the changes I had made were still there. I uninstalled again and this time searched for and removed all files containing "GIMP". Again, the new installation was in Swedish and my changes were still there.

How do I uninstall GIMP completely so that I can have a fresh new installation in English with the default layout?

Hi,
I need to scan a massive load of textbooks, and am trying to figure out the best way to do it.

I have made some test scans to JPEG, 300dpi, Colour. Which look kind of OK, pixilated obviously when zoomed in.

But I imported those same JPEGs to GIMP, and exported as a PDF, and it made them look a load better, smoother.

The 4 JPEGS are 1.95 MB together

But the PDF from GIMP is 13.2 MB

I gather this might have something to do with GIMP converting the JPEGs into Bitmap (is it?).

I just tried scanning one of the pages at 300 dpi BMP and it looks all pixilated like the JPEG's do.

I want the nice smooth PDF but without the much bigger file size. Is that possible?...

Cheers

I'm using Gimp 2.8.22. I just brought it up, and the pattern box has vanished from the layer box where it has always previously existed. I haven't done any updates to my computer or any part thereof. I tried looking this up, and found descriptions of drag bars and drag handles that don't seem to exist no matter how much I hover and click and try to drag. Could someone please tell me how to get the pattern box back where it belongs? And maybe how to keep it there? Thanks! :-)

A maze, amazing I would say. Need one for a game? Generate one with a circular, rectangular, triangular or hexagonal shape. Also one have a choice out of different cells depending on the shape of the maze. Export as svg, png or pdf is possible. Import in gimp as paths and let your imagination go.. :

Hi all, 

I use GIMP to create YouTube thumbnails and have recently noticed a problem with the UI - it seems like it's mis-aligned with the mouse on my Mac? 

I use the software on MacOS 11.2.1 and it's only been like this for the last couple of weeks, although it was around a month since I last used it. 

Not only am I unable to align buttons on the interface with my mouse, when I open an image file, the application locks-up and although the menu bar responds, I cannot do anything with it. 

Has anyone else experienced this behaviour? I can't decide if it's been caused by a software update for MacOS or something else.. I have uninstalled, re-installed and updated to v 2.10.22 (rev 3) - nothing has resolved the problem. 

Can anyone help? The application is currently totally unusable and I can't publish anymore content until I can get around this!

Hi !
New on this forum and came for this trouble, I didn't found any relative threat. But ! I have this probleme on every machines, and with another same tablet.

the problem :

when using the pen, gimp switch randomly to corepen (normal mouse) tool.
sometime it keeps it until I go left, upon tools selection icons, sometimes it switches very quickly between pen/mouse tools.

tried :

• I already tryed to disconnect mouse, suspecting slow moves could have caused switching the tool for a correct reason.
  
• finger touch off
  

• Wacom pen&touch (2 differents)
  
• problem occurs on multiple computers
  
• W10
  
• The Gimp 2.10.22
  
• logitech mouse (if any know driver problem with)
  

Windows 10 Pro 20H2 build 19042.804 64 bit, 8 core Xeon, 32 GB RAM.  GIMP 2.10.22   GIMP has been working flawlessly for weeks - the only thing I did yesterday was to use the portable version of MOUSECONTROLLER to make repetitive editing easier.  But MC has to be manually started and I'm not doing that.  Unable to open a file - just crashes out with  dump file.

1) over install - N/C
2) uninstall thru control panel, reboot, reinstall as administrator so all users work - N/C
3) uninstall thru control panel, no GIMP folder in program files,  if search with hidden files on find lots in C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10 - so I'm posting before I just start mass deletes - has 66 files totaling about 475K.  Haven't had to resort to this for a long time.  Dump file available.

Next - this?  Just delete every piece of GIMP I can find on the "C" drive.  Note that I keep all my files on other logical/physical drives so my "C" is only about 70GB of data.

Hi there, I’m very new to Gimp, have only been using it for 2 days. So, I have this one image of a subject and a green screen background, I’m pretty used to separating things from the background with the pen tool in Photoshop then I convert to selection and voilà. But here I have my selection ready and when I click on Selection from Path nothing happens, yes I’m on Design mode, I’ve tried quitting and re-opening gimp, happens every time

Any idea how to fix this?
