Hi guys. I was wondering if any of you could help me. First of, I am new to GIMP so please take that into consideration when explaining things to me. I am learning the violin and was looking for a way to put my tunes of my computer screen. If you look at this youtube video from https://youtu.be/3aud6vZKEIM he has an image that appears on the top right of the screen which shows the notes as they are played. It appears around 1.53 minutes into the video. I would like to make a video that just shows this “follow-along” and be able to put the music to it. I guess it could be played with “Windows Movie Maker” but I don't know how to make the animation in the first place. Thanks in advance for your help.

I've been using GIMP for several years now, and have always liked the functionality of the program for the most part.

I mean it is a free program afterall.

This last update however, I'm a bit annoyed with.  The overall layout and interface is nice, and looks great.

However, I'm very disappointed with the amount of times it crashes.

For instance, this afternoon I'm working on a flyer for a customer, and I need to pull some images from the previous years flyer, and it will not open 2 .xcf files.

It crashes every time!  In prior versions you could have several .xcf files open, and have no issues.

   

Has anyone else have, or had, this issue?  How did you get it corrected?

I've also noticed this same error when attempting to use some of the filters as well.

Up to 2.8, I always saw my Toollox on top-left side.
Upgraded to 2:10 Where did my tool box go ?

Have tried to add it back but cannot see any option.
Tried restting tool otions to default, and no change.

I have gone from being able to use 2.8, to be unable to use 2.10.
Why was there no warning when I upgraded ?


Thanks.

Hi everybody!
Recently I have installed Gimp 2.10 and have been learning how to use it. My problem is that in Filters>Distorts there's no IWarp filter. What went wrong? Is it a problem with installation or it occurred later? 

What should I do?

Thanks a lot!

Hi!

I need help and advice on how to make a portrait photo wider by expanding the portrait background color. Please see link below for an example of how the photo can look like. 

So basically I have a similar portrait photo as in the link that I want to use on the front page of a website and thus need to make it wider for aesthetic purposes. I want it to be wider by making a nice continuation of the background that the model is in front without it looking like there is a clear line where the real photo ends.

Does anybody have advice on how to achieve this?

In 2.10, the "open as layers" option loads the layers so slowly.

I do lots of frame animations, so this is a useful feature for me to load all the frames in a single stack, but even with small frames like 64x64 pixels the loading is so slow . . .

I opened 2.8 and loaded a bunch of frames and it was extremely fast compared to 2.10.

Is there something in the settings I can change to fix this?

Windows 10 and Gimp 2.10
Having trouble printing photos. The first one I printed in sepia, colour was okay and the image was sharp but it had lots of vertical lines in the print. Then printing out the same image again the print came out very grainy and in greyscale although the vertical lines had disappeared. Now I can't get it to print out a high quality image. Grateful for any advice and suggestions.

I was running gimp 2.8 with a script fu mod and a plug-in mod, both ran perfect. Updated to Gimp 2.10.4 and there are still running with no issue. Then I got a new laptop. Installed 2.10.4 again and installed the mossback again but only the script fu worked. Checked all file locations and that gimp was pointing to the right directory location and still wouldn’t work. So uninstalled 2.10 and cleaned the registry, then I install 2.8 and installed plugins and script and it worked great. I then installed 2.10 but again plugin wouldn’t work. 

Running Windows 10 plugin is “add-multiple_guides_plug-mod.py”

Tried installing GIMP 2.10.4 in Ubuntu's Wine (Windows 10).
Started fine but, when I goto procedure browser it just hangs.
Any idea why?
What I really wanted to do was added a plug-in folder under preferences/folders/plug-ins and added Desktop on Ubuntu and see if can run scripts that are just tossed in my Desktop, but that didn't load so I tried looking at procedure browser and it just goes dark like its' busy and not reacting to me at all.
