Any experienced GIMP users out there interested in building/enhancing video game covers? It's piece work and it pays weekly in USD. Contact me for me details if you're interested.

Hello Gimp-forum.net!   This is my first post. I'm brand new to Gimp. I'm transitioning to Gimp from Photoshop for obvious reasons. I'm using Gimp version 2.10.10.  

How do I add a new dock?

Presently there is a dock on the left-hand side under the toolbox. There are also two additional docks on the right-hand side. But what if I wanted, say, two docks on the left-hand side or three docks on the right-hand side? Is there any easy way to do this? (or even a hard way?)

I understand how to create a new tab within a dock (Windows/Dockable Dialogs), and I understand how to move/drag a tab from one dock to another dock (or to its own window), but what if I want a whole new dock?

I apologize if this is an easy thing to do. I've done my due diligence by searching this forum and by googling. But maybe my google-fu is waning. I'm not getting anywhere.

I downloaded the new GIMP.  But it is black and I cannot see the icons.

HOW do I make the interface for GIMP lighter, or white, like the other one was?

This is very hard on my eyes.

Please help soon.

Thank you.

SOLVED:  Went into PREFERENCES and changed it.

I'm starting to use Gimp after having used Paint Shop Pro for years. After an update to my laptop, PSP appears to work OK, but I can't save anything. So here I am, learning Gimp.

I can't figure out how to take a screenshot and paste it into Gimp. Tried a Google search, but couldn't find anything other than screenshots from within Gimp.

I'm pretty new to GIMP and I'm drawing just plain black lines on a grid with snap to grid enabled, and I want to try and make the diagonal lines smooth like the others and remove the pixelated and raggedy edges. Any help would be appreciated.

Tool options are normally displayed in the toolbox window below the tool selection icons.  However, I've inadvertently done something to change this behavior so that it no longer happens.  I've hunted through the Help, which BTW doesn't seem to work on GIMP 2.10.10, without being able to figure out what happened.

Would someone please explain how to put it back the way GIMP normally works by default?

Pla help my profile keeps resetting and its keepin me from saving any settings. Tried preferences didnt work.

Hi 

I have recently scaled up an image produced with Gimp to print 83 x 50cm. I generally produce the image at 50 x 30cm but had a special request for a larger image. 
I've printed at the smaller size and never noticed any problem.. haven't had any similar problem in ten years of producing and printing images. 

I was surprised to find the printed image was larger on the left side than on the right by 3mm. 

I went back and checked the digital image thinking the image must have been distorted by the "unified transform tool" and left short on the right side.. but found on checking that the image completely filled the 83 x 50 rectangle with no visible empty background ? 

We have since printed the same image twice and it is still 3mm short on the right side. 

I am not certain if this problem has originated in Gimp or via the printer software.. I sent the image to a printer as a jpeg and they checked it in PS before printing.  
Are there any known issues with certain printers.. or image file formats ? 

Has anyone encountered this issue before ?

And if they did how did they resolve it ? 

Thanks in anticipation.

Is it possible to have file-glob traverse sub-folders?
If not, are there any online examples you can point me at where someone has implemented a work-around?

TIA
