Could a considerate Linux user take the time to locate the files needed to make Liquid Rescale work, zip them up, and post them here so that I can use them.

My version of Gimp AppImage 64bit, ver. 2.10.17 "with plugins", doesn't seem to have Liquid Rescale.  It says that it bundles that particular plugin with the app image I'm using:

AppImage site

but, it doesn't install itself. I'm hoping if someone is already using Linux, and using a 64bit machine, and happen to have a working version of Liquid Rescale, maybe they could pass along the plugin to help others.

HI

I'm trying to create artwork to be printed on a CD

The company doing the printing has given a template for the artwork, 118mm diameter with 15mm central hole

I've manage (eventually)to achieve circular artwork but have found it impossible to change the print diameter with any accuracy, all I can do is adjust the dimensions of the layer then measure the diameter of the circular artwork, its all trial and error and is really difficult without a centre spot to measure through, certainly not accurate enough to send to a printer

I really cant believe it is so difficult to create a circle of set diameter, surely there's a better way?

Hello, everyone.

For the users that are already using Gimp 2.10.18, I would like to ask you if you are now able to change fonts in any plugin or script that you use?  I'm using an AppImage of Gimp at version 2.10.17 and don't have the ability to change fonts in any plugin or script that I use.  Some of these include bevel reflect logo, neon-logo, and mike license plate.

I was just wondering if all of that was fixed in the latest version.  Thanks.

I have a design which must be printed to fit in a 36" circle.  I must print on separate pieces of 8x10" paper to transfer the image for the final design.  How can I do this?  I tried making pie-shaped sections but that does not come out correctly .  I appreciate any help.
Thank You
Dave

Why does Gimp suck so much? Like i literally had to google how to crop an image in Gimp.... I'm trying to take an image I have and create a calendar. Why is this so hard.....? I literally am losing the will to even post this.... I just want to add a calendar to gimp. why is that so hard? I've seen plugins but they have disappeared.

Tried to attach the file but too large oh well.. forgot how to do the compression thing. Anyway so my usual trick of scaling through the menu to get around the glitch in gimp where it sometimes deletes the picture when you scale it isn't working. The not disappearing part is working, but it refuses to obey the setting that has keep aspect off so it makes it smaller instead of narrower. Any recourse??

And yes there was plenty of room of layer boundary, and in fact since I was trying to make it narrower that isn't an issue anyway but just to be clear.. def a part of gimp that annoys but finally ran into situation where this trick doesn't work ugh!

Also, not sure if a person or general host runs this site but would be nice if the text written when you press back after it tells you request entity too large will still be there, as I needed to retype

I don't know which title could have been chosen better.

Maybe everything is normal, but ...
Only now have I noticed that there are two ofn-text-along-path scripts displayed in the menu;
• ofn-text-along-path
• ofn-text-along-path-Multi

But the strange thing is that:
• There is only one .py file for both. (ofn-text-along-path.py)
• I don't see any difference between them other than the name and that there are two of them on the menu, and that both work.

I don't know how I achieved this feat.

Is it supposed to be like this, like this?

If a layer has an alpha channel with partially transparent pixels (alpha = 1 to 254) the menu option "Layer/Transparency/Threshold Alpha..." can be used to make these pixels fully opaque (alpha = 255).

Is there an existing method for making any fully transparent (alpha = 0) pixels fully opaque (other than by painting over them everywhere they occur in the image)?

Ideally the Threshold Alpha tool would provide a way to do this but I guess it will come down to writing a script if there isn't one already.

(Edit: Just deleting the alpha channel causes any pixels that are not fully opaque to be filled with the background colour - so this, which might appear to be the easy answer, doesn't work)

This is primarily for Linux users, you need to keep the troublesome dialogue on top for drag-n-drop to work. 
No good for Windows users, this fix does not work  Windows users have a 'fixed' samj portable Gimp 2.10.18 as a fallback.

In Gimp 2.10.16 / 2.10.18 There is a bug which causes an error in a script-fu / plugin when a resource - font / brush / pattern etc - change is initiated, preventing the change.

This using Ofnuts text along path plugin.

   

(1) Change the font and it is not possible, Only the specified 'Sans' font usable.
(2) The dialogue has to remain above the main Gimp window for this, so set that property.
(3) The new font can be dragged and dropped into the dialogue for the change.
(4) That then applied as expected from one of Ofnuts plugins.

Old / ancient logo scripts as well, although these do not always work as expected in Gimp 2.10  (5) & (6) 

   

Bonjour,

J'utilise Gimp 2.10.12 et lorsque je copie une image et que je la colle sur une autre image en tant que calque elle ne se colle pas aux bonnes dimensions. Par exemple je prends une image qui fait 100x145mm et quand je la colle elle se colle à 105x150, est ce que quelqu'un aurait une solution à m'apporter pour que mes calques se mettent automatiquement aux bonnes dimensions ?

Merci à vous
