Hello,

Long time Gimp user on windows. Lately switched to mac.

Downloaded version 2.10.8 dmg.
After succesful install, I get a message saying "can't be opened because identity of developer cannot be confirmed" when the icon is executed.

I am on latest osx version 'Mojave'. The security feature is set to "install from everywhere" and have succefully installed apps from 'everywhere'.

Don't know if this is an issue with the way that the installer is set-up or what  

Greetings everyone,

I found this thread...
https://graphicdesign.stackexchange.com/...imated-gif

Many find the solution working.But i can't find Multi Layer Merge extension anywhere on the web.Does anyone have the extension?Could you please share it with me?

I am using Windows 8,GIMP 2.10.8.

regards,

Absolutely first time poster, but figured I'd go to the community with this because I haven't found anything Gimp related to cause this.

In the folder above, I've got about 20 files ranging from a couple that are empty, to a handful that are around 12MB in size, but half of them are around 500mb in size. My assumption is that these were times that gimp crashed and created a temporary backup, but the weird thing is that they never cleared out.

I've got 4GB of data sitting in there and just wanna make sure my assumptions are correct before I purge them.

Help appreciated in advance.

In PS if you have bottom layer with some shape let's say rectangle, and you create top layer with clipping mask, everything you paint in top layer can't go outside that rectangle in bottom shape.

How to do that in GIMP?

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)

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!

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):

And a filled example:

Thanks in advance!

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

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.

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") ))'

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.

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
