Interrupting a long-running script |

Sorry if this question has already been answered, but I couldn't find anything relevant. How can I interrupt a long-running script if for some reason I don't want to wait for it to complete? The only way I've found is to go into Task Manager (on Windows) and kill it, which isn't very elegant and leaves the do/undo stack in an invalid state, so I have to exit Gimp and restart it. Is there a way to poll the keyboard, say once every 100 ms., and test for a keypress? Or is there another way?
Thanks.

Unable to Re-Install GIMP |

I'm running windows 10 x64, the error message I get reads as follow:
"GIMP 2.8.22 cannot be installed over your currently installed GIMP version, and
the automatic uninstall of old version has failed.
Please remove the previous version of GIMP yourself before installing this version
in C:\Program Files\GIMP 2, or choose a Custom install, and select a
different installation folder.
The Setup will now exit.
Setup cannot continue. Please click Cancel to exit."
I've fully uninstalled my previous version of gimp manually, there are no traces of it anywhere that I can find.
I've tried many different installation folders with custom install and I always get the same message.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Major Resynthesizer Problem |

I just downloaded Gimp (and Adobe Bridge) after research and recommendation from a family member, as Picasa is no longer supported and I need to sort and organise about 10,000 photos (including several thousand to be scanned from original photos). I like the idea of the Resynthesizer function to remove unwanted objects, but ...
. Downloaded Resynth plugins, didn't work. Got error message when trying to use it.
. Repeated above, several times, deleting each set of plugins before trying again.
. Read about Script-fu Heal-Selection plugin. Tried that. Worked, but REALLY slow and no variables to adjust like the tutorial I watched.
. Don't know what Python is, but a page I read said the plugin uses it, so I downloaded it, then re-downloaded the Resynth plugins.
. Resynth now shows in Filters>Map, but none of the plugins (especially Heal-Selection) show in Filters>Enhance!
I also tried the clone and brush tools, but when I set the sample area, the + appears only until I move the mouse to start cloning and then the sample circled area moves as I move the mouse, which didn't happen in the tutorial either!
HELLLLLLP. I'm not overly computer literate when it comes to the backend side, but I'm a pretty intelligent person and can usually work my way through. However, after over 5 hours of failure, I'm about ready to pack the lot in and go back to good old, discontinued, Picasa.

PS. I'm using Windows 7

Linux/Mint resynthesizer not working |

I'm having trouble getting the resynthesizer plug-in functions to work in a new installation (OS updated on a new computer).
The set-up is GIMP 2.8.16 on Linux Mint 18.2 Cinnamon 64-bit, using the plug-ins from the Ubuntu package gimp-plugin-registry 7.20140602ubuntu2 via synaptic. Python is 2.7.12.
There are a number of likely-looking plug-ins in ~/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins, all marked executable (755 permissions):
Quote:-rwxr-xr-x 1 lperg lperg 6595 Apr 13 2011 plugin-heal-selection.py
-rwxr-xr-x 1 lperg lperg 3153 Apr 13 2011 plugin-heal-transparency.py

-rwxr-xr-x 1 lperg lperg 53607 Apr 15 2011 resynthesizer-gui
The Plug-in Browser does see them, and they are listed in the Filters menu, but when I try to use any of them I get an error. For instance with "Heal selection" I get:
Quote:Calling error for procedure 'gimp-procedural-db-proc-info':
Procedure 'plug-in-resynthesizer' not found
then in a second message immediately after the first one:
Quote:An error occurred running python_fu_heal_selection
error: procedure not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/python/gimpfu.py", line 736, in response
dialog.res = run_script(params)
File "/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/python/gimpfu.py", line 361, in run_script
return apply(function, params)
File "/home/lperg/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins/plugin-heal-selection.py", line 148, in heal_selection
pdb.plug_in_resynthesizer(timg, tdrawable, 0,0, useBorder, work_drawable.ID, -1, -1, 0.0, 0.117, 16, 500)
error: procedure not found
As far as I can tell all other plug-ins are working properly, only resynthesizer fails.
What is the "procedure" plug-in-resynthesizer that is "not found"? Is it a file, or a function contained in a file with a different name? I have files named "resynthesizer" and "resynthesizer-gui" (above) but nothing named "plug-in-resynthesizer".
Perhaps relevant, if I try to run those files from the command line I also get errors (the same one for both):
Quote:error while loading shared libraries: libgimpui-2.0.so.0: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS64
Is there a fix, or a diagnostic procedure to go on from here?
Thanks,

printable art with gimp |

I'm using gimp to create digital art-most of the art is abstract and full of colours.I thought to start selling digital art on Etsy-I sell digital file and people print it by themselves. I'm aware that CMYK is the printing standard and gimp doesn't work well with it. My question is if I work with gimp and save jpg files with RGB 300 dpi-if it will be ok when people will print it-or it's a bad idea and from a professional point of view I should think of purchasing photoshop? I'm worried about the difference of colours of what people see on the screen and what comes in the printing and also resolutions issues.what would be your advice to me? My wish is to go with gimp because I know it well and it is free.

pressure/line size with tablet |

I'm using a graphics tablet (Huion H610pro) with gimp (2.8.22) and I am having problems with getting pen pressure to affect brushstroke. Pen pressure/line thickness works fine on the tablet's trial window. Pen pressure also affects brushstroke opacity in gimp when 'Pressure Opacity' is checked in Dynamics Options in the paintbrush tool options. But I don't want to vary opacity, I want to vary thickness. So I have made two new dynamics, one by creating a new dynamic and the other by editing a copy of an existing dynamic. In both of them the size/pressure box is checked and no other box is checked. The ratio graph is the usual straight line from minimum size/minimum pressure to maximum size/maximum pressure. Neither of those two new dynamics works. Any suggestions?

non-destructive editing |

I got a book by James Carren recently and it talks about non-destructive editing I am assuming he is refering to photoshop. Can you do adjustment layers in gimp? There was another type of layer that had to be copied over because it couldn't be in an adjustment layer it was for highlights and shadows adjustments. Can you do that in gimp too?
What I mean by non-destructive editing is that if you decide you don't want a certain correction but it is behind a ton of other corrections in the history it doesn't remove the others as well.
Where is there an tutorial on how to do this in gimp?
