Hi! 

I often export to the .data format, and I'm wondering how to make it so that when I do, the window that pops up:

defaults to selecting Standard. It's one of those small things that, when I'm saving a lot of images in a new format, slows me down a little.

I'm just curious about whether I can make that option stay as planar unless I choose otherwise. It's not major.

Ok so I'm a noob at Gimp 2 and art in general. I've got these brushes from Deviantart, I added them to gimp as a .abr file and when I try to use them they appear over inked (A lot of the detail is gone). Does anyone care to tell me what I'm doing wrong/missing?

Here's a link to an image showing what I mean as this isn't a very good description: https://imgur.com/gallery/bbzL2

Hi fellow GIMPers!

I'd like to set a custom shortcut and can't figure it out. So I have a script "Arrange Layers" which has a few options. It's annoying to make several clicks, I'd like it set to a shortcut (for example ALT + . or something) that would do all that in 1 action.

THE SEQUENCE:
(click) Image
(mouse point) Arrange Layers -> Space
(click) Horizontally
[window pops up]
(click) OK (or press Enter)

So I'd like to assign a shortcut for the entire SEQUENCE. Could anyone help?

Windows 10 updated and GIMP now will only copy blank areas to Microsoft Word. I get a blank of the same size as the copied field. Restarted GIMP and rebooted computer several times without success.

However,  it will copy to WordPad.

Hi!

How to disable the command line "DOS" window which pops up every time I launch gimp 2.9.6. I know I did it back in the days of the previous years-old beta but I seem to have lost my notes on gimp and normal internet lookup doesn't boing any clear answers either. Any ideas? I've looked into gimp startup command line parameters. Either I'm blind or there is no solution for me there. I only see the option to enable the console. This should matter really but just in case - I'm currently on Windows 7 64-bit.

I'm messing around with images and audio and data (databending sorta) and I've encountered an image file that has an aspect ratio of a very small width and a very large height, and is in the .data 'format' (aka no format).

If the size goes above 1883 x 693, even with the preview at the largest size the window will go, there are parts of the image i can't see. I don't know what original height the image had, and in the (nonplanar) RGB mode it doesn't affect the parts of the image that I can see. 

Is there a way to zoom out in this preview? It's an oddly specific question, but for that reason I can't figure it out.

(I'm on windows 10 using version 2.8.22 if that matters)

anyone know if there's a way to use this without limiting the rendering to 1000x1000? i'd like to make one around at least 4000x4000

thanks <3

Good Day!
 
I am a newbie learner to “” and I am trying to accomplish a series of steps, but things just don’t seem to work out for me.
 
I have 2 problems, well more but I wont go into everything J
 
-         Basically   I am trying to import a picture of varing sizes, and then resize them to fit a specific size.
 
For example,  I am importing an image  that is 5” x 3”,   and wanting to print it on a label, 
So I need to be able to copy it out of GIMP, and past it into a Avery Shipping Label template in Word.
 
I have been a little successful, but I am having issues with the sizes changing.
 
Steps I am completing.
 
1-     Open Image.
2-     Click menu “Image”  and then click Scale image
3-     I assign the Size height as  1.30 inches  (because of the linked reference, width defaults to  2.0 inches ISH  
4-     Resolution seems to imply its  76 x 76
5-     And it seems like it works, though when I COPY and paste into Word and print.  The size is a little off.
 
However, I went on to the next picture, which ultimately was a desktop  image ,  I completed the following
 
1-     Open Image.
2-     Click menu “Image”  and then click Scale image
3-     I assign the Size height as  1.30 inches  (because of the linked reference, width defaults to  2.0 inches ISH  
4-     Resolution seems to imply its  560 x 560  (don’t have the real numbers handy)
5-     Then I copy it , and then Paste into Word.
6-     When I look at the image in my template  the image height should be 1.3, but its about 2.3.  and the width is also messed up.
 
I am confused. If I tell them image to be 1.3  why is it not listening?   I understand there is a setting called Print size somewhere, but I am trying to make the image  Size X, but something else is getting in the way.
 
 
I am hoping someone can give me an answer,  or maybe point me to a Youtube video that goes over it.   I have watched about 6-8 tutorials, but I cant find anything that  goes into that whole aspect of

I want to try Gimp 2.9 and i have just downloaded 'Gimp-2.9.6-std-64bit-portable' from Partha.

Can i use this portable version without any problems on Win7 64bit and still keep my current Gimp 2.8.18 ?

Another update and a new filter.

This one is in Filters -> Blurs -> Median blur. Often used for noise reduction since it tends to preserve edges.

   

..and..since it is a GEGL operation you do get an on-canvas preview.
