"Gimp 2.10" Brightness and contrast issues - KavatKeeper_666 - 05-20-2018 I just recently updated from a previous version of gimp to 2.10 and have about 16 minutes ago found that the Brightness and contrast options show a accurate preview of what "should" happen but instead it does nothing. I also just tried to use "levels" to try and accomplish the same effect but that also did the same thing (nothing) This is a new image that has RGB color ect, but ill add more information here if i need to clarify things. RE: "Gimp 2.10" Brightness and contrast issues - rich2005 - 05-20-2018 Usual problem, not able to reproduce those tools not working. Everything works fine here. You updated 'recently', how recently? There was a buggy Windows installer that was replaced 5 or 6 days ago. You should have the installer gimp-2.10.0-setup-2.exe Is your Windows 64 bit or 32 bit? 32 bit Gimp is very flaky. Did you have any 'extras' installed in your old Gimp 2.8? - While Gimp 2.10 uninstalls Gimp 2.8 there can be bits left behind that affect performance. Can you try creating a new empty Gimp 2.10 profile 1. Delete the folder C:\Users\your-name\AppData\Roaming\GIMP 2. Rename your old Gimp 2.8 profile C:\Users\"yourname"\.gimp-2.8\ to say C:\Users\"yourname"\.ggimp-2.8 3. Start Gimp 2.10.0 to create a new default Gimp profile. A new Gimp update Gimp 2.10.2 is expected in a few days. Wait for that, but worth making a clean profile first. RE: "Gimp 2.10" Brightness and contrast issues - KavatKeeper_666 - 05-20-2018 I updated on the 18th of this month, so last friday. but for your questions - Windows 10, 64 bit - the only bits left where old preferences for some tools but i kind of swept those out to ensure nothing gets boogered up. RE: "Gimp 2.10" Brightness and contrast issues - rich2005 - 05-20-2018 Ah... maybe found the smudge tool options... I will post anyway If the flow setting is zero, smudge acts the same as Gimp 2.8 If the flow setting ➤ zero then it acts as a type of brush but to get the best benefit put the color into Linear mode. Image -> Precision -> Linear Light Been messing with the various options? Maybe try `Edit -> Preferences -> Tool Options -> reset Saved Tool Options to Default Values'
