Is there any way to delete all channels at once? Or to delete the selected channels all at once?

I recently installed a plug-in and as an indirect result of its main function (Create luminosity Masks) it creates several channels in this process.

A created mask ends up producing about 6 channels.
If I apply the plug-in again to get another mask, or others, new channels are created in addition to the ones that already existed.

With three masks created I had 24 channels.

There was a moment when I already had 71 channels created, none of them being necessary, since in the process the masks are created in the layers windows.

I could not delete the channels at once. I don't know how or if it's possible to do that.

Thx.

Hi there! 

I am going crazy trying to curve a text using a path. I follow the correct steps and I'm able to make a new layer with the path selection, and I'm able to fill it with color. However, I can only see this color when I remove the background layer, although this is the first layer.. anyone know how this is possible? I'm following the exact steps like in tutorial video's but the background is always on top of the curved text.. 

Thank you so much!


       

I have had a bug where I can't see my selection, any ideas on how to fix this? I am using GIMP 2.10.22 and I'm on a MacBook Air. Thanks in advance! And is there ever going to be a MacBook Air supported GIMP version?

I need to watermark my photos since I've begun putting them up on the web. 

 Gimp seems to be capable of watermarking but the only thread I found was a couple of years since the last comment and it seemed to talk about one by one.  I think batch processing is very necessary.  My photos generally come in chunks of around 100 at least for instance.   And then there's thousands already on hand not yet watermarked.

So is it possible to watermark with Gimp?  And if it is can it be batched?

I am looking to make an animated caustic map. I know pretty much how to make it but need it placed perfectly. I need to put an image 256x256 image on lower left of my canvas, then place another 256x256 image on the right side of the first image and continue for 8 images, then add another line starting on the the left for a tota of 8 lines with each line having 8 256 x 256 images, so when finished will be one giant image. Is there a way to get the images to snap into the correct space? I am having a little trouble getting them exactly placed.

Thanks

Hi, Rich.  I'm trying to get the latest version of the AppImages to work and get the message above.  It's the last few releases that do this.

https://github.com/aferrero2707/gimp-app...continuous

The latest is GIMP_AppImage-git-2.10.23-20201231-withplugins  and I've tried 2 or 3 directly before this and they have the same result. I've looked in Synaptic and there is not an exact match for gegl introspect.

What has changed lately that makes the AppImages not work, where the older ones still do, and what would you recommend be done about it?  I've looked in Synaptic at a few of the Gegl packages, thinking of maybe trying to fix this without asking for help, and decided against installing anything before checking with you.

Hi, everyone!

Newbie here. I just recently installed the GIMP software and I would like to ask regarding the software's storage. Does it save files or creates a backup automatically to a cloud storage?

I look forward to your feedback.

Thank you!

I upgraded to Big Sur. Now I have Gimp issues. I try to download the latest gimp but see on the website that GIMP 2.10.22 build for macOS - has known performance issues on Big Sur. Perhaps my issues are more serious than the normal ones that they're talking about.

Whenever I use paintbrush, Gimp becomes slow. This isn't the usual slow. It's so slow that it's almost unusable.

Does anyone know of a good tutorial for wrinkled cloth textures? Can be with either general digital drawing techniques or a plug in / GIMP specific technique. I am trying to get better with ore realistic textures as I develop a map without using elements from other artists. I have a tent image (top down) and I would like to give the canvas a more realistic texture, even if it is slight. Perhaps cloth bunching at the rope connection points or more of a folded cloth appearance at the tent flap?

Also, I have an attempt at the shadows done but I am not pleased with the results. Drop Shadows on another layer look great for the tent itself, but on the ropes, the shadows should merge to the stake (instead of appearing equidistant from the rope along it's entire length) and I am unsure how to make that happen. I tried drawing them in by hand with a low opacity 12.5% round brush, which looks like it could work with a lot of practice, but if there is another way I would love to hear about it.

   

As always, thanks for yout time.
