Hi!

I migrated yesterday coworker's workflow from Linux to Windows and got big surprise, that in some cases Gimp (2.10.14) exports image upside down. 

Our workflow follows:
* scan image upside down into TIFF
* open TIFF in Gimp
* rotate image 180 degrees
* crop image
* make needed improvements (levels, any corrections needed)
* scale image down
* export to original file/overwrite original file

After that we sometimes get image upside down, where all changes after rotating are fine. How is that possible? How to fix it?

The workflow under Linux was exactly same, but we never had such behavior.

TIA,

Gunnar
 
PS. I think, this topic is better suited to Gimp 2.10 subforum, but I don't see "Post Thread" button there.

How do I disable dither on PNG export?

I am running Ubuntu 18.04 and have Gimp 2.8.22, however I can install a newer gimp if that is what is required.
Also it has occurred to me that Mirage and Occular may not be Scaling it up correctly, which results in the appearance of dither. I am not sure how to verify this.
If I open that same .png file in gimp and zoom in, then it appears correctly.
If this is just Mirage doing bad scaling on zoom in, does anyone know of another image viewer that could be used? (something lightweight for quickly viewing an image, no editing.)

Appreciate any help

here is the png I exported from gimp (to look at this I don't really see dither, but 16x16 is really small):
   

here is a screenshot from within gimp:
   

here is the exported PNG opened in Mirage (notice the dither?):
   

Upgraded to a new computer with Windows 10. I can't get the arrow script to install.  In the GIMP folder there is not a folder named scripts? I've tried both 2.8 and 2.10.

Hello everyone. This is my first time in this forum.

Some months ago I installed the script-fu from GIMP 2.8 into GIMP 2.10 which contained filters such as neon, alien neon, cool metal, etc.

Everything worked fine but some weeks ago out of the sudden the "neon" filter started working incorrectly. Every time I applied it —the exact same way I did it before— an invisible square showed up in the middle of the figure I was working on and the neon filter did not apply there.

I tried everything: removing the scripts, installing them again, uninstalling and reinstalling GIMP, etc.

I don't know what else to do. Now the scripts won't show up in the Filter window directly. I've really started to lose hope and I feel very frustrated but the Neon filter honestly rocks and I really wish I could work with it again.

I thank you all in advance.

Im just wondering what tools were used to make these buildings in background. I'm trying to do something similar as an exercise, and am stuck. in other image is my progress so far, soo you can see for yourself of what I'm babbling about.

soo, any ideas about which filters were used, was this originally a photo or not, what was done to the photo and so on, all insight is welcome.

Thanks in advance ^_^

I think those snowflakes are an additional layer applied on top of everything, thats all I know atm.


my exercise this far xP
   
a pen doodle about the "form" of shadows, how Id like them to be. other images are about what I got on gimp atm. shadows at bottom right image are made with black layer + opacity mask (done with blend tool). I just put it on top of the building shown on top right image

hey gimp forums I'm having issues with pressure sensitivity with the newest update GIMP 2.10.14. I use a WH1409 (8192) huion tablet with the latest driver update. Any fix for this?  Please and thank you in advance

I've used GIMP for more than a decade and after a computer refresh and re-installation I am having a few issues that I can't seem to get back to how they were. Most I am getting accustomed to but the one I cannot deal with is every time I change an image scale or crop, the actual GIMP program window crops down to that size, meaning I have to maximize the program constantly. Is there a setting that locks the full screen mode? I can't seem to find it nor any information about it happening to others when I search for resizing+window. Thank you in advance.  I am on Windows 10 Pro and using GIMP 2.8.22

I have a rather specific and esoteric problem, or at least I think so.

Ultimately, I want to generate a path from a set of points/vectors/contours via a gimp script. This path should then be copied onto a jpg (the original source of the points/curves/contours). The resulting image has to have the path we created visible and editable in Photoshop.

All of this happens inside a Linux server; I work in Java mostly. To be clear, this has to work via CLI.

My questions are:
1) Is this possible at all?
2) What do the parameters need to look like if it is?

What I found in my quest to solve this problem is the 8BIM path specification from adobe, but that's about all I have right now

I would be very grateful if someone can give me some pointers in the right direction

I think I did something wrong with " Preferences ", either that or something related to the system. Now when I cut a piece of the image, I get the background colour instead of chess boxes style pattern.

Everything was fine last day. Is there any option to fix it ? Thanks.

Hope you people remember how MacOS had 2 wallpapers, one for the day and other for the night. I was thinking whether both are the same. ie, they Photoshop ed the original image as the night wallpaper.

I was trying to learn how to make a day time image look dark as in the night. I tried Colour > curve and adding a layer with black colour ( opacity 50 ). While it seems ok, I am not happy with the result. How do we do that the right way ? Thanks.

PS : I am attaching a sample wallpaper I was working on.
