I have a workflow in GIMP 2.10 which opens a RAW file via Darktable.  This creates a 32bitFP image.
Initially the image appears correctly.
   
If I then select Colors/Hue-Saturation I get an image with a very different histogram and appearance.  
   
On cancelling the dialog the image returns to its initial state.  However, if I leave the sliders in their default unaltered state the changes are preserved.  
   

If I convert the image to any of the available integer precisions before selecting Colors/Hue-Saturation the problem does not occur.

Can someone please explain what is happening.

Thanks a lot.

I just installed the Gimp 2.10.06 portable version of Samj.
Already in the first filter that I chose (Wavelet Decompose) to use I was awarded with messages of errors and malfunction of the filter.

After displaying windows with error messages, the filter performs its routine and creates what should be the expected result. But the result is far from what should be obtained by the filter. (bizarre result)

However if you choose not to work with layer group, the filter works perfectly.

Is this problem happening with all Gimps 2.10.06, only with the portable version of Samj, or just on my pc?

Could someone with version 2.10.06 do this test?

Thank you in advance!

How to get color from gradient at certain position ?

Hello Everyone,

I've created a font using paths in Gimp.
The .svg file contains all the character for the font.
Would I need to separate each character, in order to create a font?
If so, would you guys have any suggestions, as to how I might go about separating each character.
Is there a script/plug-in that I can use with Gimp 2.8, to accomplish this task quickly?
  

For me Gimp-Forum is broken (no stylesheet) for Firefox Linux, but it works on Chromium or Firefox Windows...

This started this morning (no FF updates since mid-July).

Am I the only one with the problem?

Edit: curiouser and curiouser, same problem on AskUbuntu.com which uses a totally different server software....

So I have this picture of fire, all I want to do is have the picture as a border (webcam overlay). I just want to cut out a big rectangle out of the middle and have it transparent in the middle so whats left of the photo is made into a border, and then add text to the border. I have been messing with it for hours and can not figure it out, any help is appreciated. Thank you!!

I just finished making a book cover and saved the image as png.
The image is flattened and it has 300.000 pixels. These are the specifications asked for by CreateSpace.
 
They also ask that the image should be saved as a “press quality PDF.” I tried saving as pdf, it gives me a file that can be read by a pdf reader but when I tried to test print the file it comes out the size of a pencil eraser.
 
Is this what I’m supposed to get or am I doing something wrong?

Hi there,

I recently got GIMP 2.10.4 after previously using 2.8. When initially learning how to fade layers to transparent, I used a tutorial which I will post below. With the new version, I am doing the exact same steps. When I get to "drag a vertical line from the bottom of the image to where you want the fade effect," NOTHING happens. No gradient, nothing. I've tried this several times with the same failure. Did something change with the new version, or am I just completely missing something?

Add a Layer Mask

1. Open up the Layers menu [CTRL][L]. If you're opening just a basic jpeg or png there should be just one layer at this point.
   
2. In the Layers menu, right click on the layer and select Add Layer Mask.
   
3. Make sure White (full opacity) is selected and click Add. You should see a white box show up next to the thumbnail of your image in the Layers menu.
   

1. Right click on your layer and make sure that Edit Layer Mask is selected.
   
2. Make sure that the Foreground Color is set to Black and the Background Color is set to White in the GIMP tools menu.
   
3. Click on the Blend Tool (it should be just to the right of Bucket Fill).
   
4. Drag a vertical line from the bottom of the image to where you want to stop the fade effect. (Hint: Hold down the [CTRL] key to help make the line vertical.)
   

Up to now I was using 2.8.
Now I changed to 2.10.6
