| Masking multiple layers at the same time |
|

I had 4 layers and in one section, I wanted to create a mask that "drilled" down through 3 of the layers. It has been a while since I did that but I think that what I ended up doing was creating a selection from the layer mask on the top layer, then creating a layer mask from selection for the other two layers but I was wondering if there was a better way to do this. I tried grouping and the "chain" icon to see if what I did to one layer applied to the others in the group/chain but no luck.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Jules

Code:
@ECHO OFF
TITLE Compress GIMP
CLS
REM This is to get the first argument after the batch file
SET FILE_IN=%1
CALL :DEQUOTE FILE_IN
REM This sets the path used in the gimp script
SET PATH=%FILE_IN%\*.png
REM This prints the path
ECHO Will run GIMP script in path '%PATH%'. Press Enter to continue or Ctrl+C to exit.
REM This waits for enter input
PAUSE
REM Change argument 0 to the GIMP exe
REM For me it's "D:\Programs\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.8.exe"
REM If you want to run it inside the current cmd window,
REM use gimp-console-2.8.exe, otherwise (aka new window pops up), use gimp-2.8.exe
"D:\Programs\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.8.exe" -i -b "(batch-auto-fix \"%PATH%\")"
REM Tell user it's done!
ECHO DONE.
GOTO:EOF
:DEQUOTE
FOR /F "delims=" %%A IN ('echo %%%1%%') DO SET %1=%%~A
GOTO:EOF
This is a script I asked my friend to make that changes the image mode to indexed and saves it as a compressed .png. He never could get it to work and he gave up so I figured this is the best place to ask for this kind of help. I hope his comments are enough, if not I could elaborate/explain if issues arise.

I can open a multipage .pdf in Gimp 2.8.22 as layers and work on it without difficulty. When I try to save it as a .pdf, all I get is one page and the others are lost. Is there any way to save a multipage .pdf using Gimp?

When I hover over a button in GIMP, and get a "tool tip" which appears to have white text on an off-white background, nearly zero contrast and impossible to read.
How does one change the foreground/background colors of the 'tool tips' to make these readable?
If I download/install 2.8.22 will I have library version conflicts, manual updates? [1]
System:
GIMP 2.8.18, YAST install, latest available from Suse
OpenSuse 42.3, fully patched
Linux spock 4.4.104-39-default #1 SMP Thu Jan 4 08:11:03 UTC 2018 (7db1912) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
NOTE [1]: Installed VLC outside of YAST, now seeing:
phonon-backend-vlc-0.8.2-5.2.
x86_64 conflicts with vlc-noX > 2.2.99 provided by vlc-noX-3.0.1-278.2.x86_64
vlc-codecs-3.0.1-278.2.x86_64 requires libavcodec57(unrestricted), but this requirement cannot be provided
As bad as DLL HELL with windows!

i am using gimp and every stupid time i need to cut a new part on the picture it does not cut(when i select the new cut area the rest of the image is gone and only the cut part stays). also when i deselect the cutting tool what i cut out comes back. only thing i can think of out of this simple so simple it pisses me off solution is to save the pic each time i need a new cut

It uses to be an exact match. But now it darker then the part I'm cloning. No matter what area I try to clone from, it's always going darker then what I pick from and had become pointless.
I don't know if there is a setting for this that has been changed or what is going on. I need it to be an exact clone of what I take from. Like it uses to be.
I have 2.8.16
top left I cloned a line moving down from the right and it doesn't match.
bottom right it's going so dark it almost black.
