RE: very few file type export options - coyote - 06-22-2018
Thank you very much, rich2005!!
"Gimp 2.10.2 as far as 32 bit is concerned is broken."
Oops, I see I didn't notice your last post in which you mentioned this.
It might be good to mention this on
https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
so others won't waste time looking for solutions. My bad for waiting until my 2nd post to mention my installations are 32bit.
On the PC I haven't downgraded (from 2.10.2 to 2.8.22) yet I found that if I select the GIF filefype from the popup the "All export images" button generates, more filetypes populate the popup. Then I selected the newly-appearing JPG filetype, and it seems they all populate the popup.
Oh, but still still nothing happens/GIMP seems to hang when I click Export.

Again I have no idea why it took me so long to see your request, rich2005...unfortunately now I've fallen back to 2.8.22 so I imagine it's too late for me to provide that file (and no time now to upgrade to do so), sorry!

I'm guessing not since this isn't addressed on https://www.gimp.org/news/2018/07/04/gimp-2-10-4-released/
(https://www.gimp.org/downloads/ offers 32-bit, but it did for 2.10.2 too. It would be great if there were an easy way for users to learn when 32-bit is fixed.)

Should work, with reservations. This in a Win7 32 bit VM
After installation, there might not be any toolbox icons. screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/cQoEveC.jpg
Edit -> Preferences -> Icon Themes and Legacy works. https://i.imgur.com/VJega7O.jpg
Does Gimp 2.10.4 browse and open (and export) images. It does here: https://i.imgur.com/FPuJB3P.jpg
Have not tried it for plugins / scripts... etc

Honestly I'm in no rush to get off 2.8.22, and really too busy anyway, as much as I'd like to provide feedback I think I'll just hold off for awhile and thank all of you who are participating in working out the kinks!

I see there's a 2.10.6 out now; is it still broken "as far as 32 bit is concerned"?
I feel bad coming here to bug y'all about this, but for some reason this 32-bit-broken-ness has never been mentioned at https://www.gimp.org/downloads/
RE: very few file type export options - rich2005 - 08-22-2018
The short answer is - I do not know.
Long answer: Trying out Windows Gimp 2.10.6 yesterday and today because of another question, and it installs ok, all the icons are there, a quick test with python plugins and script-fu .scm and working ok.
The snag in my Win 7 32bit VM is this:
![[Image: kXHTsN4.jpg]](https://i.imgur.com/kXHTsN4.jpg)
Jpegs do not import and do not export. Tried all sorts, a very clean no-previous-Gimp installation, Installation over existing Gimp 2.8 All the same error. Other file types open and export ok, as far as I can tell it is just jpeg's.
It is very strange because the same happens in a Win7 64 bit VM but not a Win 10 64 bit VM.
It might just be my Win 7 installations, I do not know. Waiting for someone with a physical 32 bit Windows to start complaining.

Thank you so VERY much, Rich. (As I wrote when 2.10.4 came out) "Honestly I'm in no rush to get off 2.8.22, and really too busy anyway, as much as I'd like to provide feedback I think I'll just hold off for awhile and thank all of you who are participating in working out the kinks!"
Gimp is SUCH a treasure!
RE: very few file type export options - rich2005 - 08-22-2018
It is my ancient Win 7 installations. My VM's are never connected to the internet and thus never get updated.
If you have a Windows 7 SP1 (and better) then Gimp 2.10.6 looks good.
RE: very few file type export options - coyote - 08-22-2018
Y E S ! !
In other words Gimp 2.10.6 is working (including the issue I originally addressed when creating this thread) for me on my 32-bit installations of both Win8.1Pro and Win7Pro.
Many thanks to rich2005, and both thanks and congrats to the Gimp programmer(s)!
