  Resynthesizer Instal Issue in GIMP 2.10.8
Posted by: Traceybear - 11-16-2018, 05:52 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

Hi, I have been trying to get Resynthesizer to work in GIMP 2.10.8 all day. I have reinstalled GIMP. It was originally an update from 2.8 where the heal selection tool worked great. I installed the new GIMP and installed the 64 bit windows versions of resynthsizer.exe and resynthesizer.gui along with the plugin-heal-selection.py. However, I get the error

Calling error for procedure 'gimp-procedural-db-proc-info':

Procedure 'plug-in-resynthesizer' not found

with the details

raceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\32\lib\gimp\2.0\python/gimpfu.py", line 740, in response
    dialog.res = run_script(params)
  File "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\32\lib\gimp\2.0\python/gimpfu.py", line 361, in run_script
    return apply(function, params)
  File "C:\Users\Tracey\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins\plugin-heal-selection.py", line 148, in heal_selection
    pdb.plug_in_resynthesizer(timg, tdrawable, 0,0, useBorder, work_drawable.ID, -1, -1, 0.0, 0.117, 16, 500)
error: procedure not found

I do still have the 2.8 file in my profile but renamed it 2.8  old. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

  How To Remove the Lines and Boxes On A Form?
Posted by: ghporter - 11-16-2018, 01:54 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

I have a form with graphic data filled in it, and I have the blank form. I'd like to somehow use GIMP to remove the form's boxes and lines, so that ALL that's left is the graphic data. The form is printed in blue, while all the data is black.

I tried removing the blue color from a scan of the completed form, but the graphics overlay the lines, and it became a pixel-by-pixel struggle - and so error prone that I gave up.

Is there a way to use a scan of the blank form as a mask to remove the printed info from the form (lines, boxes, labels, etc.) from a completed form?

Here's an example (not precisely the same thing, but it's close) of the kind of form I'm talking about (sorry for the size of the image):
[Image: fbi-fingerprint-application-form-fd-258-...83x683.jpg]
And a filled example:

Thanks in advance!

  TIFF files appear washed out after export
Posted by: senray - 11-15-2018, 06:58 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

After I export an image to a TIFF, it appears washed out when opened outside of GIMP, but appears fine when loaded in GIMP.

  Gimp 2.10 'with files' batch
Posted by: rich2005 - 11-15-2018, 11:34 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

As you know, I am not a coder. 
Selina in this post https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Changi...5#pid11445 has an unknown number of .xcf files of various ppi and would like all as 96 ppi.

A little plugin to do one at a time: Does not do much, sets the ppi and saves the image straight away.

Code:
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from gimpfu import*

def plugin_96ppi(img, drawable):
    
    filename = img.filename
    pdb.gimp_image_set_resolution(img, 96.0, 96.0)
    pdb.gimp_file_save(img, drawable, filename, filename)    
    pdb.gimp_image_clean_all(img)

register(
        "python_fu_96ppi",
        "set96ppi",
        "*",
        "*",
        "*",
        "2018",
        "<Image>/Tools/set-96ppi",
        "*",
        [],
        [],
        plugin_96ppi)

main()

Can this be used in a Gimp batch mode? https://wiki.gimp.org/wiki/Release:2.10_changelog has a with-files macro. Seems simple but I can not get this to work. Not using the flatpak, using a 'bunt' 18.10 VM & Gimp 2.10.6

Quote:-A new 'with-files' macro is available to run commands on several files at once. For instance, if you want to invert colors of all png files in a directory, and save them as jpg, you could run:
gimp -i -b '(with-files "*.png" (gimp-invert layer) \
             (gimp-file-save 1 image layer \
             (string-append basename ".jpg") \
             (string-append basename ".jpg") ))'
             
**quiet rant** Gimp really needs some sort of macro facility that does not rely on command line or writing a script. Tried all ways with BIMP but it just does not handle .xcf files with several layers.

  How to mirror and align text
Posted by: Aertew - 11-15-2018, 02:17 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

So here is the problem, I have text right, but, I want it to have a equal distance from each other. So I have my first text, I have tried creating a copy and flipping it, that didn't work with text, with images its fine because with images they the same area as of the entire image, but text is different, because with text they only have the area of themselves, even then, I cant flip the text because then I cant edit the text afterwords. That's the best I could explain my problem, sorry if its confusing.

TL;DR I want to have a equal distance between my text.

  Help Uninstall Script-fu
Posted by: stevecuss - 11-14-2018, 04:20 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (1)

Hello,

I am in a pickle and hope someone can help me. I downloaded Gimp last week from the main website and tried to install it but kept having troubles. It would open but never seemed to install into my applications. 

I tried using Gimp and gave up on the complexity and found a simpler design solution for my needs. I think I installed Gimp, but can't tell. It doesn't show up in my spotlight or any search.

Ever since I downloaded GIMP, my battery runs hots, fan always on, battery drains super fast. I ran activity monitor and something called "script-fu" is taking 95% of cpu. It won't allow me to delete or quit it and I can't find where it is located on my mac. I used a 3rd party sweeper and still can't seem to find it. 

Can anyone help me out? Somehow Gimp has installed it running on my mac, without gimp itself running and it is severely affecting performance. I'm puzzled as to why I can't locate it.

thanks so much for any assistance you can offer


I reinstalled Gimp to see if that would help. Here is what I currently know

- Gimp took several minutes to verify
- Gimp appears to have only run from the installer. It is not in my apps.

I was thinking if I reinstalled gimp, it would help me figure out where script-fu is and how to delete/disable it.

  Changing resolution (DPI)
Posted by: carmen - 11-14-2018, 03:43 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

Hello!
My question: is there some way/plugin to change the resolution (dpi) of an existing XCF image?
My reason: 
1. I never print, but export to .jpg or .png for inclusion on ePub books (XHTML)
2. Conflicting resolutions complicate importing layers/paths from other files
3. Through different oversights on my part (failure to delete in Irfanview the original resolution of an image before opening it in Gimp, difference between Gimp versions, not setting the default resolution in preferences...) my XCF images now range from 72 dpi to ~1200 dpi
3. I  would wish I to set it for all at 96 dpi, but haven't found a way to do this.
Help highly appreciated!
Thanks.

  Choosing out of gamut colors in 32 bit float for HDR
Posted by: mholder - 11-14-2018, 01:00 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.10 - No Replies

I am trying to make an hdr texture for lighting.  Technically, I can make this in Gimp, but for my sun I need an extremely high luminance value.

In the color picker, the largest value I can input is 500 in HSV, which translates (I guess) to 300 Luminance in LCH.

That's a problem because the shadows are too soft.  I need to go much higher than that.  Is there any way to do this?  The only workaround solution is to add lots and lots of exposure to get a pixel value above 500.

  Shooting With Film
Posted by: Peter B - 11-14-2018, 12:30 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I'm an analog person trying to function in the digital age and as a result I do all of my shooting with B&W or color film.  Will I loose any of the features of GIMP using film and will I be able to manipulate B&W images with GIMP?
