I recently installed Linux Mint 64bit with the Mate desktop. I also installed Gimp 2.10.
With the previous version of gimp the install would create a hidden folder in my home 
folder named .gimp-2.8. There was a sub-folder called scripts or something like that 
where I put the Pandora plugin. There is no Gimp folder in my home folder with Gimp 2.10.
I looked in Edit/Preferences/folders/ and the folders appear as swap folder and temporary folder.

When I did the Mint install I did not create a swap file. I have lots of ram installed so no need for one.

I also removed some of the items on the left dock and I'm not sure how to get them back.
I messed up something on a previous version of Gimp, I don't remember what but I deleted 
the .gimp-2.** file in my home folder and when I restarted Gimp it recreated the folder and 
went back to all the default settings. I just had to reinstall the Pandora script.
Does Gimp 2.10 have a place to put scripts? How do I install them?

Thanks!!

I really must get out more.

I do lens ball photography and recently found out that gimp has changed a lot.
I figured out how to change the ellipse select but can not figure out how to turn the
image right side up. Can someone please help? I am using Gimp 2.10.22 Thank you!

I'm used to seeing marching ants around what I select. Now I don't see anything even though it's selected. Show selection is ticked.

Hi all, first post here nice to meet you all, have a question for you.

I received some comic book pencils back from an artist and they are detailed and super complete looking. My question is can someone point me in the direction of a parameter to adjust to turn the pencils to black linework!?? I know this wouldn't be perfect as traditional comic inking by any shot, but is there something someone can think of, probably within the colors section? to adjust to darken the pencil linework to black? 
I am screentoning the daylights out of the artwork afterwards but the pencil work is so complete and detailed that I think it would be a shame to traditionally ink over all the details, so hoping someone can aim me in the direction to darken the pencils to black, thanks!!!!

I have a  disordered sprite sheet which includes many sprites and i need only 4 of them, the size of the sprites are 18x16 px., i have created a new image (72x16) how can i copy 4 of those sprites in there?

Is it possible in Gimp?
Which tool i need to choose?

If I draw with the pencil tool, and the hardest brush setting (100), I get no anti-aliasing, and the fill bucket leaves no halos, perfect.

If I erase part of that drawing with the eraser, even with the hardest brush setting, the edge is always anti-aliased, and the fill bucket will leave halos behind when filling in those erased areas.

How can I turn off anti-aliasing for the eraser?

I have used the pencil function for years. However, it no longer works. It does the same thing as the eraser function

I use a scanned B&W image in Gimp. I use bucket fill to fill the white spaces. What are the best settings for Bucket Fill if I want to best preserve the black border lines in the scanned image? Currently, the border lines seem to get lighter when I use the bucket fill and I don't like the looks. My settings were where I wanted them in a previous version of Gimp, but I had to upgrade to 2.10 and I don't remember the settings I had. I typically filled with a 90.0 threshold. Thank you!

Heal selection causes plug-in to crash with Error Message:  "An error occurred running python_fu_heal_selection". 

I am using GIMP v. 2.10.22, Windows 10, 64 bit, Resynthesizer for Windows 64 bit.

Can anybody help please!!!
