I can't seem to apply Gaussian blur to a selection without colours from surrounding pixels (but outside the selection area) bleeding in. 

I read about selective G blurring, but that doesn't seem to fit what I want to do.  Median blurring was ineffective for what I was trying to do.

I googled around and found others with the same problem, but no solutions. Is there a setting or something I'm missing to prevent bleeding like this?

Is there a way to print layer(s) settings in 2.10?  I've got some layers with different opacity settings for either the layer or brush, and if I switch to another layer/create a new layer when I return to a prior layer, the settings aren't recalled.  That, or is there a way to make sure GIMP can recall the settings I had set up for the layer?

Thanks!

Are these all working in 2.10.4?
I noticed that one has been deprecated. Does that mean the others are ok?

I think the "Color>Color Temperature" control (menu selection) is a new tool in GIMP 2.10.  The term "Color Temperature" arises in other image processing software in the context of "White Balance" which as best I can tell is something that needs to be taken into account in order to develop the RAW image data available from some cameras.  I believe it is the way to advise the software about the light conditions of the scene when the image was shot.  While this provides a way to develop the RAW data in a manner that provides a more faithful/realistic reproduction of the original scene the software also allows for adjustments to be made that can alter an image to suite the artist intent of the photographer.

Insofar as GIMP does not develop RAW data it would seem that the later is what GIMP could do.  Other image processing software commonly use the term "White Balance" for a control from which "Color Temperature" can be adjusted.  This tool in GIMP 2.10 is the only one where I've noticed 2 rather than 1 adjustment.  In my mind, it's always been thought of as a way to increase or decrease the temperature from what it is to start with.  From experimentation it appears as though the same results can be achieved by either lowering what GIMP calls the "Original Temperature" or increasing what GIMP calls the "Intended Temperature" or visa versa.  In that, the only thing that matters is the difference between the 2 settings.  There is no need for 2 values (i.e., Original and Intended) to do this.

What am I missing?  Is there some reason for supplying 2 values verses 1 (which would simply be the amount to increase or decrease)?

I have made two spinning globe images, one spinning left to right, the other right to left

I have exported as Gif Files with "loop forever" selected 

The right to left image rotated forever as requested.
The left to right image rotates once and then stops

I have checked the settings and re-created the gif files several times to make sure I have the settings correct

I would  appreciate knowing if anyone has solved this issue

Hi all. I've been using Gimp (2.8.18/Win8.1, 64-bit) to mark off completed stitches when doing some complex needlework. I set the grid size to match the chart, and use snap to grid to easily fill in with a square brush. This has worked quite well, though if I'm careless, I can pull the brush off course.

I'm beginning a new project, and the brush meanders all over the place, though there are small jaggedy ridges, leading me to believe it's following some other guide I can't find. I've double-checked the settings from the old project to the new, and so far as I see they're the same.

I imported the new chart as a layer into an old page, and the brush works normally over the old image, but fails miserably over the new one. I've attached a screencap. 

The blue section is the completed old work (original chart layer not visible), the white is the new chart, and the colors are on a separate multiply layer. The green lines were put in using the same amt of care (so even when new image is superimposed over it, the old image has some setting the new image lacks). (Layers, top to bottom: Multiply>colors, normal>new chart, normal>old chart.)

Any ideas as to what I'm missing?
Thanks!

Hi there,

Is there a way to trigger a script once an action has occurred? I specifically want to run a simple script after the current selected layer has changed (via some user action, filter, etc)

Or perhaps there is another mechanism for this besides plugins?

Thanks in advance for any help

Hello GIMP Forum,

I recently installed the new GIMP 2.0.  One problem I've been encountering is that when you try to paste something and that selection is below a layer that is not transparent, you cannot move the selection.   For example, if I'm trying to paste something and it ends up underneath a drawn block on a higher layer, I cannot move the thing I pasted at all.  Is there any way to fix this?
