Hello. First off, I am not a coder, but years ago I managed to write a plugin in GIMP 2.10 to do some basic repetitive tasks like adding solid color layers with masks, in groups and set other various parameters. The first thing that happens is the original image layer is copied and desaturated. Honestly, I am struggling with rewriting this simple plug-in in GIMP 3 format...I can't even get anything to show up in the GIMP menus even after copying the code from another GIMP 3 plugin example. Running it line by line through the python console produces no error. Could someone look at this basic code to copy a layer, create a new layer and desaturate it and help me understand why I can't even get the plugin to show up in the GIMP menus? I wish there was a GIMP 2 to 3 converter or a forum group that would help rewrite code specifically for us non-coders. I just don't understand enough on how to write python code when I cannot find examples to do basic tasks. Thanks for any feedback you can provide.
The code is attached

| Stylus pressure works on 2.10, broken on 3.0 |

Hey there, excited to try out the new features.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem: No matter what I try, it seems like 3.0 simply refuses to use pressure sensitivity.
However, when I switch to 2.10, it works (almost) flawlessly.
My computer uses:
- Windows 11
- Cintiq 22HD (2012 model)
Gimp 3.0.0 (Broken)
The Configure Input Devices dialog shows the following:
- \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Eraser (Not greyed out)
- Source/Tool type: eraser
- Vendor/Product ID: (none)
- Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
- \??\Microsoft HID RID\000D_0002\0 Pen stylus (Not greyed out)
- Source/Tool type: pen
- Vendor/Product ID: (none)
- Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
- System Aggregated Pointer (Not greyed out)
(omitted)
- Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Eraser
- Source/Tool type: eraser
- Vendor ID: 056a
- Product ID: 00fa
- Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
- Tablet Cintiq 22HD Tablet Pen Stylus
- Source/Tool type: pen
- Vendor ID: 056a
- Product ID: 00fa
- Tool serial/hardware ID: 0
The listed devices do not contain "axis" or pressure sensitivity information or options like the curve editor.
This is with the Windows Ink API selected.
2.10.36 (Works)
The Configure Input Devices dialog shows the following:
- Core Pointer
- WACOM Tablet Eraser
- WACOM Tablet Pressure Stylus
Each device listed:
- Uses "Screen" mode
- Shows the "Axes" widget with 6 items (mouse lists "none" for all but the items labelled X and Y)
- Shows a curve editor when the Pressure axis is selected.
What I've Tried:
- Restarting GIMP after using the stylus to draw a stroke. (This fixes 2.10 but not 3.0.)
- Switching input APIs. (Wintab, Windows Ink)
- Updating WACOM drivers and restarting.
- Unplugging and replugging the tablet into a different USB port.
- Enabling/Disabling "Pressure Compatability" in the driver software under Wacom Tablet Properties > Options...
- Enabling/Disabling "Use Windows Ink" in the driver software.
- In the Configure Input Devices dialog, removing all of the greyed out devices. (This was a recommended fix for earlier versions of GIMP.)
- Various combinations of the above while restarting GIMP.
At one point, using "Wintab" seemed to show signs of life, but once the pen reached maximum pressure, it remained "stuck" there as though pressure sensitivity was disabled. Interestingly, it also listed no devices (aside from the mouse) in the Configure Input Devices dialog.
At one point after switching pointer APIs, the tablet driver seemed to bug out; it'd only move the cursor initially and then "freeze up". Unplugging and re-plugging the USB connection seems to have fixed this to make the tablet usable with other apps.
So, now I'm kind of running out of ideas. I'd really like to use the new GIMP but it is currently held back by tablet bugs.
If you need any other details that may be helpful, I'll be happy to provide them.
If I happen to fix this problem on my own somehow, I'll let you know what the fix was.
Thank you!

| About the AddonCollectionManager Plugin in Gimp 3 |

Hello ! I got a question about a Python plugin (&I hope i'm in the good subsection for that...).
I've been using the AddonCollectionManager in Gimp 2.14 before turning to Gimp 3, I got quite a lot of brushes/patterns/fonts, so this was extremely useful.
But with the change to Python 3 in Gimp 3, it's logical that this plugin is no longer working (plus it's quite old, from the script itself it seems that it's from 2013 & based on GURM ?).
I've seen that @[b]Ofnuts [/b]has worked on it for a rewrite & clean up in 2013, but is there any hope for someone to try making it work in Gimp 3 ?
I could try my hand at it, but I'm not familiar at all with Python, So that could be quite the journey here ^^°
(BTW, Thanks a lot for the plugins I can find here, there's a lot of things to try !)

| Unable to launch without admin - new installation |

I have a new laptop, installed Windows 11 with the Media Creation tool, and installed Gimp 3.0 with the binary from the website @ https://download.gimp.org/gimp/v3.0/wind...etup-1.exe
I have a *local* user - no Windows Live accounts - and it has administrative privileges. When using the installation wizard, I had it install for all users.
When trying to launch either gimp.exe or within Explorer, right clicking image, Open With, Gimp the ps shows up as a background ps in Task Manager. Gimp never launches.
However, if I launch gimp.exe as administrator (through Explorer) it does start - note it takes a LOT longer than expected, at least 3-5 minutes. Everything else on the laptop is fast (decent cpu, nvme drive, 32GB memory, etc on a Thinkpad T15).

as if I have no idea wth is going on.
I waited patiently for about 40 years for Gimp 3.0 to arrive, with high expectations of image altering bliss as the ultimate reward. I thought once 3.0 was released, things like plugins and scripts that were re-designed specifically for 3.0 would work flawlessly.
It's confusing to me, a user of Linux Mint, as to what exactly is the proper way to make the Debian based AppImage provided by Gimp.com to do much of anything correctly. Are there "Debian based" plugins for extensions like Resynthesizer and G'Mic and Beautify while using the AppImage? I ask this because none of these plugins, which have already been altered to work with my version of the Gimp 3.0 AppImage, work with the Gimp 3.0 AppImage supplied by Gimp.org.
Is this because I'm using Linux Mint, an Ubuntu based version of Linux, instead of Debian? I can download the official Gimp 3.0 AppImage and things like Render/Fractals/Fractal Explore throw up errors and will not work right out of the box.
I have to get Rich to modify Gimp 3.0 AppImage plugins to make them work; they don't work with the official Debian based AppImage. Thanks a million for that, btw, Rich.
Will there be a time when I can just download the AppImage on Gimp.org's site and get any plugin already Gimp 3.0 modified to work properly or will they always have to be specifically modified to work with Ubuntu/Linux Mint also?
Lastly, I don't even know if what I'm saying makes sense. Someone make it make sense for me.
