  Can you shift click multiple layers in gimp 2.99/3.0 ?
Posted by: Newman - 11-11-2024, 03:41 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (3)

Hi, 
I've been using Gimp 2.99/3.0 for a while now. I know you can: 
- shift click multiple layers in the layers panel (very nice)
- and you can set the move tool to be able to click and select a single layer in the canvas 
Just wondering if you can shift click multiple layers directly in the canvas yet? I haven't been able to do that.

Big Grin Gimp-Forum.Net being a reference on Copilot
Posted by: Krikor - 11-09-2024, 03:51 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (3)

In a certain question about plugin compatibility between versions 2.10 and 3.0, Copilot suggested that I participate in the Gimp-Forum.Net Forum!

Being a reference is definitely something to be proud of!

  What are the limitations on opening large image-files?
Posted by: tomatoSauce23 - 11-09-2024, 12:02 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I have a large 1.89GB PNG that is [51k x 42k] pixels big, it's a large map. It takes GIMP about 90 seconds to open it and to get it ready for me to view and edit. I have 16GB of RAM and Windows Task Manager says GIMP uses 8.5GB of it to display this PNG. My Dell laptop was brand-new a year ago, so the CPU's pretty-good for a laptop; the GPU is a baked-in standard Intel one, that manages most things without a problem except for demanding games.

It's not a problem for me that it should be slow to load and edit this image, as I would otherwise cut the PNG up into smaller sections; but I'm curious as to what exactly the limitations are. If I had to guess I would say it is either the CPU or GPU that can't load the large file into GIMP more quickly than that, no matter how much RAM it had supporting it. the Irfanview app could not open the image, so GIMP is doing a better job than it at least. I don't know how other image-editing software would compare—Adobe etc. .

  Watch Videos At Higher Resolutions On Linux
Posted by: Tas_mania - 11-08-2024, 09:22 PM - Forum: Watercooler - No Replies

Previously here at Watercooler I came across a networking algorithm that can improve bandwidth on the big video platform Smile

I did some more investigating and found a way of making it permanent on a Linux system.
__________________________________________________________________

Find what congestion control you are using now:
sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control
Mine had
net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control = reno cubic

Add BBR
sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.conf        (gedit or whatever editor you want)
add the following two lines:

net.core.default_qdisc=fq
net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control=bbr
save file
reload sysctl.conf  >   sudo sysctl -p

check congestion control again:
sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control
net.ipv4.tcp_available_congestion_control = reno cubic bbr
_______________________________________________________________

Comments.
Hopefully enabling this gives you better video performance.
I think more people are 'streaming' video on Android TVs. A network is only as fast as it's slowest bottleneck.

  Saving templates with layers.
Posted by: StevenCunningham - 11-08-2024, 03:03 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I can't seem to be able to save a template with any layers. I've created an .xcf with multiple layers and would like to make it a template. Unfortunately when I use the "Create Template..." option, none of the layers get saved. The template appears in my template list, but it is a blank slate with no layers. Also, as an aside, how do I delete templates from my template list? I now have several versions of the same layer-less template in my template list.

GIMP 3.0 plug-ins
add_path_argument and successfully get a path to show up on UI?
I don't know why mine is not showing up.
I got add_file_argument to show up
and path just has this extra boolean in param, I tried true and false...nothing.

Over at gimpchat.com i got this plug-in called GIMP cards and it requires a directory/path and this add_path_argument is a show stopper for me trying to convert from GIMP 2.10 to GIMP 3.0.

  Text along circle doesn't work anymore
Posted by: martin.girard - 11-07-2024, 08:50 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Hi,

I'm trying to wrap text along a circle using GIMP 2.10.38 on Manjaro. I've done it successfully just last week, but tonight it won't work for no apparent reason.

Just in case, I've been following the steps in multiple tutorials like a robot, as in this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-j3nbLDj3M

But when I reach Text Along Path, the text selection shows at the top left corner of the screen instead of around the ellipsis, as in the attached screenshot.

I've also looked at trivial issues like text alignment, box being set to Fixed instead of Dynamic, trailing carriage return, and so on. Nothing works. I've also restarted the application and rebooted the system just in case. Haven't updated anything since I last used the functionality.

Please advise.
