Gimp 2.8, using soft proofing via Color Management in Edit. I set the monitor profile and the ICC values for the printer and paper. The printer I use uses only sRGB. On some of my photos there are quite a bit of out-of-gamut sections. is there a fix for this? I've read that converting to CMYK and then back to sRGB will solve it, but I don't know how to do this in Gimp?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I have a map of Salem, Oregon, and am trying to trace the railroad tracks with a different color. In the map, the tracks are barely legible. Is there a way to pick the color and then globally change the map so that the tracks show up better?

I realize that other parts of the map may be affected. Not an issue, as I'm only focused on the RR tracks themselves. Not an issue, as I'm only focused on the RR tracks themselves.

When I start an image I can use the Dodge/Burn tool as normal. However once I use a layer of any sort, even once I merge all layers the Burn tool now can only give me hard edges.

I can find no way to reset that.

I run it on a Asus windows ten rig.

2.10 has a "new" symmetry tool. Helpful, however.... is there a way to show guides/lines from the origin point out per each axis of the mandala?

While it's nice that it's new, it's difficult to see how many axis and where my lines start and end in relation to the number of symmetry segments.

MandalaGaba does it well, but it does not have the editing functions we have come to enjoy and rely on such as Gimp does. If anyone here has played with the Kaleidoscope in Corel Painter, the view of the axis is another example of the guide function. However, Corel Painter 12 stops at 12 segments, where Gimp has 100 AND a proper : tool.

Hello--I am stumped!
I have a font in my GIMP fonts search path that would show a weird character instead of a plain space in Gimp, ... apparently depending on whether or not other 2 fonts (system .fon, not .ttf nor .otf) are also loaded by Gimp.
1. Screenshot showing the issue     : the two topmost fonts are 8514fix.fon and 8514Oem.fon, living in C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-font-bitmap-fixed_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7600.16385_none_db04d3f548508fd9--they don't appear in usual font menus, nor in windows character map
2. After first bumping into the issue, I tried again with the same font 
  great-western-way.zip (Size: 47.28 KB / Downloads: 392) , it shows in menu as Old Street Signs:  8514fix.fon and 8514Oem.fon weren't on Gimp font menu and I was able to insert and edit the text without trouble (I have the .xcf file with the normal text)
3. However, they are back now--both in win7 and win10)--and so is the trouble.
Please: is there a way to prevent Gimp from loading those fonts (or bitmap fonts in general--I don't use them)? Or, if the trouble isn't actually related with bitmap .fon fonts, is there some workaround not involving tagging the spaces as Times New Roman or whatever--thus disturbing the font's line-height?

I am trying to change the color of a pair of white shoes in GIMP before I actually do it in real life. 

I have looked at several videos on youtube and searched this forum as well and haventh been able to find my answer.

I am trying to change the color by using the new layer option. However when I got to color the section of the shoe it doesnt show it applying. I can see what I have done by looking at the new layer with the checkered background but the color isnt applying to the actual image.

Any help would be appreciated.

I have a single object with multiple colors and a complex shape isolated on a layer with no background or other elements. How can I transform this layer into a selection without going through the tedious process of using the imprecise scissors or foreground select tools? I've spent nearly twenty minutes trying to word a search query to find the answer with no luck. Is it even possible?

➤> pdb.gimp_image_list()
(1, (1,))

➤> gimp.image_list()
[<gimp.Image '[KentsHouse-FamInDen] (imported)'>]

Obviously two different commands (procedures? attributes? properties?), despite their similar names.

The Python Console "Browse" button shows info about pdb.gimp_image_list(), but seems to know nothing about the other. Where is this other command coming from (if not GIMP's internal Procedure DataBase), and how would I know about it if I hadn't just stumbled onto it?

Gimp 2.10
I am trying to make a logo. In previous versions I knew how but now I think it must be different. It would be a round image with circular text around this. It would be like this image but with a different name (text)

That will help me pixelize an image with varying sizes dependent on similar colors.
Like pixelize just does constant size.

I want it to get varying possible pixelize dependent on similar colors for example if the area of similar colors is larger it'll return the larger size that i can pixelize on and if an area of similar colors is smaller it'll return the smaller size that i can pixelize on?

I hope I explained that right.
