I downloaded GIMP 2.10 today.  I have added the plug-ins and exe files to my plug in folder.  I now have access to the heal selection within GIMP; I am still receiving the below error message.


An error occurred running python_fu_heal_selection

and I also recieve the below message.

Hello friends,

Sometime I mistakingly think I am editing a top layer that is visible but in fact another layer that is selected (but is not visible) is being edited without me realizing.

in the preferences I have not checked:

"Allow editting on non-visible layers".

Yet this happens.

could someone explain what I am doing wrong?

Thx

I think I am making some mistake in understanding brushes. Currently, I am only able to stamp them. If I tried to make a contour using a brush shape, it simply repeats as a merged array as seen in the screenshot

   

I am using the following brushes. I will be nice to know how to paint using it rather than use it as pre-made stamps. Thanks

I have gimp 2.8 and everytime I try to use the plugin superblade pro 1.95 in gimp I get this:
the letter is L and even when I hit apply it doesn't work what am I doing wrong. I have the marching ants around it. I have tried float and defloat to no advail. I even tried 1.80 and still not working. Thanks in advance for any help y'all can give

I'm using Gimp to do spritesheets, and I'd love a way to move a selection by a given number of pixels along an axis; E.G. 256px to the right on the x-axis. I can't do this visually, because the layers have transparency, the selections I'm working with don't line up the same way with the guides. The resolution is too high to just spam the arrow keys. I haven't found anything obvious in the documentation or the various tool options in Gimp.

My current workaround is to fill a rectangular selection around the sprite with cyan and line it up visually, but that's really clunky. Surely there's a better way?

I'm completely new to this Gimp and sublimation prinitng.  I've bought all the gear and ready to go.  However, I'm finding it difficult using you tube for help.  I've managed to make a template for my 11oz mugs,  I now want to add different images/ pictures and text. How do you do this and then flip each one accordingly. Can you just keep dropping images on , move them where you want, or do you have to do something else?  Can I use clip arts etc  see example of what I'm trying to experiment with.

I just noticed that putting layers in a group layer makes a noticeably heavier xcf (in my test an xcf went from 1.2 to 1.5 GB).

But it gets more interesting : if your layers have masks and you think you can save some space by deleting them and putting a single mask for the group, it will still be heavier than when you had individual masks (even if the masks were different). In other words you'll have less data to work with but the file will be heavier.
I don't understand why. Does anyone know?

Hello,

I'm fairly new at using Gimp (and art programs in general), and while working on a project, I've had difficulty replicating two particular visuals effects found, for example, in the picture below.

   

The first problem is that I can't seem too replicate the sort of customized curved gradient shown in the image. The gradient tool in Gimp has some options, but I wasn't able to make a curved gradient out of these (I don't really understand what most of the options do outside of linear), so I was wondering if there were other ways to go about replicating such an effect, or if I'm missing something. Additionally, sometimes the gradient (if I draw small lines using the tool) produces very stark differences, without nice transitions, and doesn't seem blurry enough. 

The second problem is that I was wondering if there was a more efficient/clean way of doing the clearer outline between the darkest part of the shading and the thicker, darker outline, using Gimp than simply manually drawing it using the brush tool.


Thank you.

able to download the application, but unable to open.  Have never encountered this challenge so don't know how to deal with it.

I have been using GIMP for a while now and am on Windows 10 with GIMP 2.10.20. Recently I have run into a problem of getting blank images off both of my Epson printers on many images I try (not all) .jpg and .tif The images print fine using another program. I have tried searching the web without success. I just updated to GIMP 2.10.20 from 2.10 where I first experienced the problem.
HELP!
