Hi, I have a script-fu script I wrote back in 2003, which I use to save the current image in the ../edited folder, and mark the image as "saved". I have been using this script in every version of Gimp since 2003 without changes, but when I tried to use it in Gimp 3.0 I got the error:

Execution error for 'DoIt':
Error: eval: unbound variable: gimp-image-get-filename

Does anybody know if the function gimp-image-get-filename has changed in Gimp 3.0, or if I'm missing something in my Gimp installation?

Thanks,
Eric

Hi. I have a problem with my texture when converting it to .dds. The texture has different tarmac and white lines textures, but I am sending a texture with the same repeated layers (I will not send the full texture here).

The problem is when I convert texture to DDS, it has blurry pixels every time on the same rows—always on the 2nd, 3rd, 6th and 7th rows. The blurry pixels are from the right side of the white lines.
The white lines must be "Vivid Light" opacity 60%. The file must be any DDS.

When I export, I go to "Merge visible layers" then convert to .DDS. I tried to convert from Gimp to .dds like:
- DXT1
- DXT1
- DXT3
- DXT5
- RXGB
- DXT5
- Alpha Exponent DXT5.
- DXT1 with generate Mipmaps

I tried everything, connecting layers before, etc... 
Is it a mistake in connecting layers, or effect Vivid Light or Gimp can't do that?
Can I send someone a file via PVT to check?

In Gimp 3.2.0 RC3:

The tip for the cross icon at the bottom right of the layers dialog when a layer mask is selected is plural, it says: "Remove layer masks and their effect" This seems to imply that more than one layer mask can be selected but I can't see a way to do it.  When using shift or ctrl to select more than one item in the layers dialog, it activates the layer and not the layer mask even when clicking on layer masks.  What does the tip refer to?

Yesterday I downloaded the newest version of Darktable (5.4.1) which is now causing error messages when exiting Darktable back to GIMP. I tried a number of things such as uninstalling both programs and re-installing them (Darktable first as recommended) but I still get the same error messages (image of messages attached). I have had connection issues in the past with other updated versions of both programs, but I cannot resolve this one. Any help would be appreciated.

Looking at GIMP to supplement DXO PhotoLab. I am starting to do some long exposure "Fine Art" photography and want to know if GIMP can remove horizons? Photo Lab does not do that of course and I have Photoshop CS4 available on my laptop but GIMP sounds promising overall.

I need help writing some basic script that will draw, for example, a circle, or a rectangle of randomly colored pixels, at a specified X and Y on the selected layer. For now I got this :

   
no one say the obvious duhs of "show invisible" or uninstall and reinstall or any of the easily obvious, cuz i've done it. i have reinstalled everything i have wiped my whole, pc twice. My user files don't even show and it's a brand new piece of dookie gaming laptop that cost me my left nut. I have done all the obvious,  including extracting the files directly into both the 3.0 folder and creating a new brush folder and extracting the brushpack into that. 

Gimp IS RUNNING FINE

but the brushes have no place to go. every SINGLE time I reboot the whole damned vehicle of laptop hellscape no matter what it just keeps showing me this  "3.0" TEMPORARY FOLDER

someone save me from a stroke or I'm going to start breaking things.

tarzan roiding out. need more brains. help me.

I'm presently trying to export a png file as monochrome only, but every time I do, it converts to grayscale antialiased in the saved .png.

Specifically, I save a strictly monochrome 300 dpi bitmap from MTPaint. I can view that image in any image viewer, including in GIMP itself, zoom in, and see that all of the pixels are either black or white. No grays.

In Gimp if I now export that as a png with a new name, the saved png when opened in any viewer now has antialiased greyscale pixels in curved shapes.

If I take that new image back in, and go to colors>image>threshold and again to make it monochrome, succeed at that, then save it as a png, it converts back to antialiased grayscale in the file.

I'd appreciate any advice on how I can simply save a true monochrome .png with Gimp.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I am using Gimp 2.10.38 and also trying 3.0.8 on Windows and Linux too.
In Photoshop I am able to view the RGB values of a particular pixel while adjusting the:
Image > Adjustments > Curves

So far I haven't worked out how to do this in gimp. The FG/BG Colour Scales Tab doesn't change with adjusting the curves.

AI said there was an "Info" dockable dialogue. But when I look for one there isn't one:

Thank you, for any help.

Hello,
I have been exploring Script-Fu recently, and found that the procedure "gimp-drawable-set-pixels" sets the colours of pixels but does not make the new colours visible! I've got to toggle layer visibility off then on for the display to refresh, or copy the modified pixels, paste back over themselves, and merge down.

I'm aware of the function "gimp-displays-refresh", but calling it doesn't seem to do anything.

I'm assuming I'm just very stupid and there's a simple way to make the results gimp-drawable-set-pixels visible from script-fu. I certainly feel stupid after spending so much time trying to figure out something so seemingly simple, so as a last resort I figured I'd ask here.
