Image in in Alpha Channel & Can't Move It |

Hi All,
Not new to GIMP but never use it because I always hit a wall doing things almost immediately. I really want to learn this hench my question and not giving up.
I have an image, a .png file exported from Inkscape, that has the attached pics for 'Layers', 'Channels', and just a little of the actual image. From what I see and I think is the problem is the layer is the 'Background' and the 'image data' is all in the Alpha Channel only.
My issue is I want to erase some of this to simplify bits but as I said the 'image data' is in the Alpha Channel so I can not use erase and have it do anything. I see in the 'Undo Hostory' that it performs an Erase
I have tried all sorts of things from filters, copying/adding/deleting the layers/channels to another, breaking apart, converting into different file types, ... too many to list or remember and NOTHING I can do can allow me to erase some of the lines.
The question I am asking is how can I get the 'image info' into another channel or layer or format or ANYTHING that would allow me to erase some of those black lines to alpha? I know I have done this in the past but not constantly and can never figure out the 'why' I can't. I have been Googling for hours and it's just a strange thing to explain and type out for a search and all I get is basic stuff on the alpha channel that has not helped.
ANY help would very greatly be appreciated!!
Dave

Possible to script Metadata? |

I'd love a way to "sign" my work with a quick shortcut for both jpg and png files.
Currently I just type something in the comment box when exporting a jpg. It would be nice if you could save your comment as part of setting your save defaults, but it doesn't work that way. This is still much quicker than writing a Title/Author in a png file. For that I have exported what I would like as my defaults and have to do Image > Metadata > Edit Metadata Select: Import Metadata from the drop-down and navigate to my saved file.
So my question is, would it be possible to script this at all to make it a bit quicker and easier?
ie.. script the importing of a default set of metadata.

As my question to the developers mailing list got ignored: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-dev...00004.html I'll try asking our Resident GEGL expert, tmanni
When trying to use the gegl:bump-map command, I do not know how to specify the "aux" layer to use. Is this
possible? if so what do I need to do?
When trying to use the gegl:contrast-curves command I don't know how to format the curve parameter as
anything I try is crashing GIMP (issue #5607)

Background set to Not Visible but still displays.
I have project made up of two gifs and two pictures set on a background that is set not to be visible. Every time it cycles through the stack the non visible and transparent background wipes the images and then they are re-displayed as it works up the stack. This gives a nasty flicker that I need to get rid of. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong or need to change?
Thanks

Convert to color profile problem |

Using GIMP 2.10.20, and I want to export an image with a CMYK profile, for printing purposes. I downloaded CMYK profiles from Adobe and set in Preferences. I can use one of the profiles (Coated GRACol 2006) to soft proof without a problem. Using the same profile in the Image - Color Management - Convert to Color Profile option, I get the error message "ICC Profile Validation Failed: Color profile is not for RGB color space". I tried a few of the other profiles from Adobe but with the same results. I know that sRGB is what GIMP uses, but why is the conversion not working? New GIMP user. And if I can't do it this way, is there an alternative? Thanks.

Batch conversion from JPG to PNG |

I want to convert series of grayscale textual pictures from JPG to PNG. Because of large number of pictures, I am using batching with BIMP.
Starting with 262k JPG file
- if I change manually I get 196k PNG file,
- if I change by batch I get 292k PNG file.
The difference is huge and I cannot figure what is wrong. The one logical explanation I could come up is that when I use batch, I cannot set pixelformat. In manual change I use default "automatic pixelformat".
Is my conclusion correct? Is there a way I could convert to PNG by batch and get the same result?
Best regards.
