This is a good question, and I was gonna ask the other day and I forgot. So I'm interested in knowing if you can do multiple selections of layers as well, because that would be helpful! Smile

"Milliseconds" is easy, just specify the new time in the export dialog, and check the "use this delay  entered above for all frames" check box.

Yeah right ?

Any GIMP patron-saint in here ?

Unless I'm missing something you can't select multiple layers in V2.10.x.

You can select multiple layers in V2.99.x and some operations will work if you have more than one layer selected - for example rotate or crop will apply to the selected layers. Tools like the paintbrush and pencil do not operate at all if more than one layer is selected but this will change in future versions.

"My" GIMP is version 2.10.30

I am not sure I understand all of the question.

Initially seems about the timing value in an animation. Ofnuts has a re-timing plugin ofn-retime-layers.py with various selection options. see: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-tools/files/scripts/

Then there are old scripts, look for Multiple Layer Actions script-fu that can apply various basic actions (colorify / autocrop / layer-to-image-size / ...etc..to linked layers.

Then the gmic plugin can apply many of the gmic filters to layers, choice by all / all visible / all invisible.

50 layers is not too many. Hundreds, then best way is export all the layers to individual images and use some sort of batch operation.

My ofn-retime-layers script, perhaps?
