  Start up and use Gimp 2.10.8 ver 2 Samj
Posted by: Pat625 - 01-03-2019, 01:02 AM - Forum: Windows - Replies (6)

Downloaded the ver 2 as understood too many problems with the first.   Initial start up OK but as plug ins and scm added more problems.  Start up interrupted by statements of no function known, hit any key to continue and some that hang for a long time before continuing.  Have Demo.exe that appears and must be deleted before continuing.  When start up finally finished, all looks OK, but plugins that were added on first start up only stay until computer turned off.  When Gimp started again, go through all the same start up problems but the added plug ins are not there.  It is though they were never added by using Edit/Preferences/Plugins.  I have not had this problem with any versions of Gimp before.  I have completely erased it, re downloaded repeatedly but continue with this problem.  If the added plug ins are not in the original system and profile folders, they disappear.  This goes also if a subfolder has been added, it disappears also.  They seem to work properly when they are present.  Am I missing some files?

Has anyone else had this problem?  I tried reporting it, had a few replies, but then I had notices that their server would not accept messages from me.  Asked for help but no reply.

Any suggestions?

I am using Windows 10.  64 bit  Have Gimp 2.8.22 reg version still on my computer.  I have installed the Samj Gimp to the desk top to separate it to another directory.

  Filters for Photo Art
Posted by: Paul E. Lehmann - 01-03-2019, 12:03 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (1)

Recently downloaded Gimp 2.10.8 on MAC running High Sierra
Interested in additional filters for converting photos to sketches, water color and oil painting

I do not seem to have all the filters that I have seen on various web pages for doing these sorts of things.  There seems to be more than what came with the download.

Can anyone tell me where to go to get them and how to install.

Thanks

  Adjust and Save a Gradient.
Posted by: rich2005 - 01-02-2019, 02:40 PM - Forum: Tutorials and tips - Replies (1)

Gimp 2.10 gradient tool allows adjusting and editing a gradient on canvas. A great improvement. Saving is simple as well, no need to open up the gradient editor anymore Wink

  Preventing Colour Changes?
Posted by: dancingsquirrel - 01-02-2019, 08:41 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I'm creating illustrations from scratch on a transparent background, converting to png, and uploading. When I view my work on my laptop (Windows 10) its fine, but on my phone (Android) some of the colours are whack! Is this likely a problem with my phone settings specifically, or is everyone who sees my work on certain operating systems getting this?  Thanks friends!

  Alpha transparency space in borders for stickers.
Posted by: Tetragram - 01-01-2019, 11:07 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (16)

Hey Guys. I'm creating stickers, and I want to send to the printer, information that there's a couple of inches of transparency after the edge of the images. I'm making it about 2 to 4 pixels. Something small.

I have the cut out in Gimp, but can't figure out how to do that. 

I have read about the tools and searched the web as well but haven't found an answer. 

Any help is appreciated.

Rainbow Change colour
Posted by: eliassons - 01-01-2019, 08:15 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Okay, I have a question.
I have a Picture of a veichle, that I want to change colour of. right now it´s blue, but I want it to "pig-pink". I know how to change the colour, either I do it by making a transparent layer and paint in that(like this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yfnRntPBS8c ), or I use colour rotation. The problem is, that I can´t paint it with "Pig-pink". If i select that colour it just looks like ordinary pink(see the photo i attatched). I want to paint with the colour i selected. Can someone please help me with how to do?

And if you don´t know "pig-pink" looks, it´s like this: https://www.google.com/search?q=saga+rai...6368416617

  Opening image caused GIMP to resize itself off the desktop
Posted by: gstalnaker - 12-29-2018, 07:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

All,

Do I see correctly a change in how the primary GIMP UI behaves? I don't ever recall this happening with 2.8.x but it certainly does happen with GIMP 2.10.x (I used 2.10.8 for these screen shots).

Issue: When I open an image, GIMP will resize its primary UI window based on some attribute of the image size and often (!) I end up with the left side of the GIMP window drawn off screen.

Screen cap one -- no image open, GIMP primary window almost filling the display (sorry, this is large as I have a 2560x1440 display).

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ajbimjgldfca01...t.png?dl=0

Screen cap two -- image opened and now the left side of the GIMP window is off the left edge of the desktop.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/7pqkig8mulzrgv...t.png?dl=0

I hate this. And it happens a lot. Now to use GIMP I have to move the main GIMP window to the right so see Tools on the left. Very annoying. I've looked through the Preferences and I don't find any option that seems related to "fit image to primary display size" or something along these lines.

What am I missing?

Thanks.

  Easy way to paste multiple images together?
Posted by: T-buch - 12-29-2018, 12:59 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (13)

From time to time, I could need some kind of an autofunction to paste multiple images with the same width together as follows:

Picture 2 is pasted to the bottom of picture 1, picture 3 to the bottom of picture 2, etc.

  Is there a xsane-gimp plugin for Mac OS X
Posted by: dataweary - 12-29-2018, 07:06 AM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (3)

Hi,

Struggling to find if the xsane-plugin exists for Gimp 2.10.

I have Gimp 2.10 on Mac OS X Sierra (but can use 2.8 back also, when nedded).
Installed xsane with homebrew

But I can't find the xsane-gimp plugin.

Any clue would be warmly welcomed!
