Question Trouble installing a perl plug-in
Posted by: Rincewind - 02-06-2020, 06:12 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I got a waving flag plug-in for gimp. The file is called flag-waving. I copied it to the path '/home/rincewind/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/'. Made it executable for all users. I started Gimp and can't find the plugin.

Operating System: Lubuntu 19.08
Gimp: 2.10.8
I got the plugins folder path by going to Edit > Preferences > Folders > Plug-ins.
flag-waving appears to be a perl script, it has a shebang line, but not a .pl extension. Not sure if that is an issue.
I installed it with snap, and not apt, if that makes a difference.

What am I doing wrong?

  Cut out graphitti from the grill
Posted by: PeterLageri - 02-06-2020, 08:28 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello.

How can I cut out the graphitti from the grill?

(See attached picture) 

Can I some brighten or make its color more stark so it can be changed into a seperate layer?

  When I scale a layer it disappears..Why?
Posted by: marigolden - 02-05-2020, 11:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I scale this item in a layer bigger and then the item seems to disappear even though the layer is still there, visibility on and everything. When I undo the scale it appears again:/

Hey Guys,

I'm struggling to insert the photo in the message board so I attached it instead. Does anyone know how to apply the curve effect to text?

  Could you create this youtube tutorial in Gimp 2.10?
Posted by: ak34ue - 02-05-2020, 02:45 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Obviously I know you can but my worry is the snap feature and the automatic crop and save to the guides? How would I save a single image into ten different images?
Do I have to individually crop and save every picture? 

I guess my big question is:

How would I be able to recreate this in Gimp?

  Questionnaire- Developing New Effects Plugin
Posted by: AllieBee - 02-04-2020, 08:29 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

Hi everyone,

The questionnaire takes 5 minutes to fill out, it's anonymous, and it would be a BIG help. 

Read a little about the project ⬇️

I am a computer science student doing a human-computer interaction project with a team. We are building a plugin to let users easily insert custom scripts for effects into a GUI. We will also be creating a website to let users search for, browse, and share scripts for use in that plugin. 

Here is the link: https://forms.gle/hQKjqfbhRQHnTs4n8

  Select tool inconsistent

Gimp 2.10.14


if i start gimp with a new canvas
and left click on the ellipse select tool
I can create a selection and when I select the Bucket Fill tool, the selection remains intact and the region fills

Now if, while the above new filled selection exists
I left click on the rectangle select tool
and create a selection, the rectangular section is created
BUT if i then select the Bucket Fill, immediately I lose the ellipse and the rectangle.

IN ADDITION
if i start gimp with a new canvas
and left click on the rectangle select tool
I can NOT create a selection

should not both these tools work the same?

I can still see an outline of my text in its original position after I rotated it. Can you tell me how to get rid of it? Thanks.
