  Autosave for GIMP
Posted by: pixelmixer - 02-15-2025, 12:01 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

Hi,

An autosave Script-Fu plug-in for GIMP 3. It saves a numbered version of the open files, that have been edited, into a named folder. It does not save over the opened file. You do have to start the Autosave manually each session, it’s almost an autosave.

A download zip is available here...

https://script-fu.github.io/funky/hub/pl...-autosave/

Any issues, let me know Smile

  Specular texture
Posted by: kulharin - 02-14-2025, 04:44 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

If I only have a diffuse and a normal map, is there a filter or tool in GIMP that would help me create an appropriate specular map?

  How do I create a live tiling effect like this?
Posted by: Marscaleb - 02-14-2025, 06:33 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

In this video you can see a guy creating a tillable texture, and as he draws it, it automatically displays it as being tiled.

https://youtu.be/mMZ3Mn-esOI?si=m2v7_BHJJDF0y-6v&t=152

How does he do that?  It's clearly in Gimp, and this would be SUCH a useful tool.

  Adobe Fonts don't show up in GIMP
Posted by: Chuck Coker - 02-13-2025, 12:45 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

When I install fonts from Adobe Fonts, they show up in my other programs, but not GIMP. I spent about two hours last night with Adobe customer service and we couldn't find a workaround. The guy even installed GIMP on his computer and was able to reproduce my problem, but no solution was found. He suggested I ask in online GIMP forums to see if anyone has found a workaround.

The Adobe Fonts show up in Photoshop, as expected. They also show up in Typograf, MS Notepad, MS Paint, and LibreOffice Writer, so it's not that the fonts are limited to only Photoshop or other Adobe products.

Is anyone successfully using Adobe Fonts with GIMP? Did you discover a workaround?

I'm using GIMP 2.10.38 (revision 1) on Windows 11 Home 24H2.

Thanks.

PS: I checked as I was writing this and the fonts do not appear in Inkscape, either.

  How to move text
Posted by: snowforest - 02-12-2025, 08:33 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I typed a text. How can I move it to another location. I click on it , try to drag it, but the layer below the text moves. And no, the text layer is selected. this is very counterintuitive.

  Export to photo app
Posted by: Rob1st - 02-12-2025, 12:20 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (1)

Hi,

I am new to GIMP and am trying to master some of the simple parts of editing and saving photos. I can load and edit the photos but what I can't understand is how export straight to the Photo app on my Mac. I have looked for this in the chats and also on places such as YouTube but all I can find is ways to save to the desk top.

When I select "export as" I get the dialogue box and select A file name add the file extention I want (jpeg) and click on Pictures under the places tab. However once I click export I cannot find the photos. 

Can anybody help explain to me how it's possible to save directly to my camera roll/photo app Please? 

I don't really understand things like file structure and hierarchy so the simpler the better please.

 Many thanks
Rob

  DDS mipmaps
Posted by: kulharin - 02-11-2025, 03:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Two question, what is this closest equivalency of the "default" algorithm?  Is it similar to Fant or Lanczos?

For in game grass, flora and plant DDS textures in the range of 2k to 4k, what would be the best algorithm for mipmaps?  

Thanks
