I just now installed the English language manual for GIMP 2.10.  After I downloaded and installed the manual, I restarted my desktop PC (Windows 10).

However, the pages of the manual display as blank pages when I open it inside GIMP.  Attached is a screenshot to show what I am talking about.

What do I need to do, to fix this?  Thank you for any help.

Hello, a first time post.

I have downloaded the GIMP 2.10.18 for Windows on my PC and I'm getting what you see in Pic 1.

When I went to get advice in video form with Youtube everyone had the layout as in Pic 2.

Pardon my ignorance but what do I need to do to get it to that format ?

I realise it's probably I'm doing something completely wrong but any helpful advice you can give would be appreciated.

Can someone please tell me how to convert a plain text to Golden or Silver letters ? Will it work on non-Latin characters as well ?

Simple question, is there a way to make is to the angle and roundness of a brush in gimp can change at random like you can do with it's location?

(Also, quickly, where the heck did all the brush types go? Apparently there are supposed to be hundreds built in but I see like- 20.)

I have collected the available documentation in the e-book 'A Guide to Ofnuts Paths.epub', to be downloaded from https://drive.google.com/open?id=1IBwwHt...cqRLXmOyaK.
It includes some additional examples, cross-links, and a Table of Contents (TOC) for easy consultation.
- If you wish to have a look at the book but lack dedicated software on your computer, THIS LINK
 https://geek1011.github.io/ePubViewer
opens a browser-based book-viewer:

• upload e-book from your computer
  
• navigate with -> and <-
  
• button on the upper right corner opens TOC and access to text search, configuration...
  

• animations are in webp format, which should be alright in browser-based readers, but is likely to be rejected by some dedicated devices
  
• if your e-reader can switch between paged and scroll mode, select the latter
  

I have tried to use a .icm  ICC soft-proofing file from One Vision to use their printers for my photos.
However it does not work (no change to the displayed image) when I set up using the Preferences dialogue
or the dialog in the View-Colour Management menu (Proof colours and Soft_Proofing profile set ok).

I know the ICC file works ok because I use it to change the the Assign Colour Profile menu to change from the built in Gimp sRGB profile. I could soft-proof like this however it is a bit clumsy.

Is this a bug or am I missing something ……. ?

I'm a new user and am still learning how to navigate the various options etc.  I have noticed that when I am adding text the default is Sans Serif  62 px. This is
huge and forces me to adjust the text size every time I use GIMP and edit / add text.  Could someone please let me know how I can change the default font and size.

thanks Brian

New plugin to draw Lissajous curves (as approximate Bezier curves with sparse control point sets). Should work well if you do not push it too hard.

To get the plugin, go to

http://kmarkku.arkku.net/

follow the link 'Applications', and click the correct Download button there. That gives you a .zip file. Unzip it, put the .py file into your Gimp's plug-ins folder, and restart Gimp. The plugin 'Lissajous' will be in

Filters/Render/Parametric curves/Special cases

If there are any problems, please tell me.

This is probably the last plugin from me in this series for some time. I have no new ideas about curves to implement, and I am going now to another long project. But if you have some good suggestions, I'd love to here them.

Anyhow, these plugins should show that my general plugin Parametric curves can be useful, though admittedly it is difficult. It does have its own quirks, and I made small improvements in the code when developing Lissajous and the others. Perhaps I shall make an update when I have some spare time.

Edit: Corrected the path

Just curious if there were any plugins out there that offered bit depths in the ranges of 2-7 bits per pixel? I'm looking to export an 8bpp indexed bitmap to lower levels. Obviously this isn't used nowadays, but it's for an old game project.

Thanks in advance.

Quick question:
Is there a way to put selected (linked) layers into a new group, or move them into an existing one?
I seem to remember some plug-in like that working in 2.8 and getting disabled in 2.10...
If there isn't anything avaible, I dare say it wouldn't above my beginner level to provide one--but I shy from re-inventing the wheel...
