Tip: Work-around: Gimp 2.10.18 script / plugin bug - rich2005 - 02-25-2020
This is primarily for Linux users, you need to keep the troublesome dialogue on top for drag-n-drop to work.
No good for Windows users, this fix does not work Windows users have a 'fixed' samj portable Gimp 2.10.18 as a fallback.
In Gimp 2.10.16 / 2.10.18 There is a bug which causes an error in a script-fu / plugin when a resource - font / brush / pattern etc - change is initiated, preventing the change.
This using Ofnuts text along path plugin.

(1) Change the font and it is not possible, Only the specified 'Sans' font usable.
(2) The dialogue has to remain above the main Gimp window for this, so set that property.
(3) The new font can be dragged and dropped into the dialogue for the change.
(4) That then applied as expected from one of Ofnuts plugins.
Old / ancient logo scripts as well, although these do not always work as expected in Gimp 2.10 (5) & (6)
