  Fonts not available in text Tool
Posted by: Rocket - 01-02-2020, 09:05 AM - Forum: Linux and other Unixen - Replies (5)

Hello, I have installed gimp 2.10.12 (I have the same problem for 2.10.14) on Linux (Kiss Linux). When
I try to add some text on a picture, I get:


Code:
Due to lack of any fonts, text functionality is not available.


So I can't add text on a picture. On my system I have the following fonts:
  • dejavu
  • liberation
I have run fc-cache, but it didn't help. Fontconfig is installed. I have the following in /var/cache/fontconfig:


Code:
ls -l /var/cache/fontconfig/
total 80

In Kiss Linux, each package is built from source. Because it isn't packaged, I have created a package. I compiled
gimp with the following:

Code:
./configure \
   --prefix=/usr \
   --libexecdir=/usr/bin \
   --disable-altivec \
   --disable-static \
   --disable-python \
   --disable-nls \
   --without-lcms \
   --without-webkit

make


In Kiss Linux, intltool isn't packaged, so I had to remove everything concerning internationalization from code. My build compiled, but perhaps I removed something
which is needed to add text. I applied the following patches:

- patch to remove intltool dependency
- patch to remove translation directory

As I understand, the dependency glib-networking is only used for documentation. I also remove this dependency.

- patch to remove glib-networking

At start, gimp is a little slow, but all tools I have tested until now works. Perhaps there is a better way to remove internationalization. I have tested other "paint" software, for example
imagemagick and I can add text on a picture without problems. Do somebody has an idea what to check and what could be wrong ?
Thank you!

  2.10.14 fails quoting: too many GEGL exceptions
Posted by: Turn2Linux - 12-31-2019, 06:13 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (1)

Hi All,
I uninstalled/ reinstalled (clean install) of 2.10.14, following the forum advice.
Using 2.10.8, I had no problem having lots of images and going through them one by one, choosing, editing etc...
I had the "too mny GEGL exceptions error" fault when using the 2.10.14.
This is when I followed the forum advice and installed it clean, instead of the upgrade I made before.
The problem persists.


Any targeted specific help will be greatly appreciated.

  can't post to the GIMP 2.10 forum
Posted by: Gully - 12-31-2019, 05:13 PM - Forum: Gimp-Forum.net - Replies (2)

I'm new to this forum, only been a member about a month. I am using GIMP 2.10 and would like to ask questions in that forum. However, whenever I go to that, I do not have the "New Thread" button to ask a question, so I keep asking in the general forum. I've peeked in most of the other forums and I have the "New Thread" button above the "Mark this forum read | Subscribe to this forum" options. Is there something that I'm missing as far using the 2.10 forum? I've included a screenshot of what I see when I go to the forum.

  make lines thicker on already drawn object
Posted by: Gully - 12-31-2019, 04:39 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (13)

I have several objects that are already drawn. After finishing them, I think they need to have thicker lines. Is there a way to make this so, without having to redraw the objects with a thicker line in the pencil or path tool?

I'm using GIMP 2.10 on linux.

  Trying to understand why CPU MAX OUT with Gradient
Posted by: scatterbrainz - 12-30-2019, 01:38 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Greetings Everyone,

I'm trying to understand why GIMP - (version 2.10.14), when on i5-2500 cpu with 32GB RAM and GTX 760 (2GB), was maxing out system, but now on a AMD Ryzen 5 3600X with 32GB and a GTX 760 (2GB) its still MAXing out the cpu.

PS: I haven't re-installed anything yet. But I'm wondering why this is sucks up EVERYTHING !


I5-2500 -> https://ibb.co/MM9MpcB

Ryzen 5 3600X -> https://ibb.co/RP7JX1D


Thanks.

Considering this a graphics software forum, I thought you people will be putting some decorations for holidays. Not that it is important, but getting along with the festive mood is nice, right ?
