Error Upon *Second* Use of Heal Selection - Shabs.lists - 08-11-2024
Windows 11
GIMP version 2.10.38
Resyntheszier Package is installed in the plug-ins folder: C:\Users\PC\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins.
Running heal selection the first time works fine.
The second time I run it produces the following errors:
[attachment=12232]
and
[attachment=12233]
Any ideas how to fix/debug this?
Thanks!
RE: Error Upon *Second* Use of Heal Selection - Shabs.lists - 08-11-2024
Try again: I tried to post screen shots with the error messages.
The two errors are:
GIMP MESSAGE: Calling error for procedure 'plug-in-resynthesizer':
The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?
and
An error occurred running python_fu_heal_selection
RuntimeError: The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?
MORE INFORMATION in the 2nd error message:

First, because image in base64 won't work and it annoyed me to create a html file for an img src... (or just copy/past in a new tab, but I was only at my second coffee
)➤ how to upload image > https://www.gimp-forum.net/misc.php?action=help&hid=11
More seriously, now your question
This is not a "bug" if I can say that.
I did a test, as you can see below I made a transparent area, then did an "Alpha to Selection", thus selecting all the opaque except the transparent inside and got the same error
when you launched the heal selection the second time, maybe your selection got "inverted", making the "Content Sampling Width" off?
If not, please show us your image

@Shabs.lists
For posting screenshots read that link that PicLab provided for uploading images.
It is also better if you post an image of Gimp to include the layer dock and tool options. The fault is often somewhere in the layers.
You can use Gimp to make your screenshot. Not as convenient as pressing the PrtSc key but all good practise.
Might go like this 40 second animation: https://i.imgur.com/GnJ1KQh.mp4

For example: In the attached image, for example, there is a blackish smudge on her left hand. When I try to delete the smudge with Heal Selection, I get the above mentioned errors, namely:
GIMP MESSAGE: Calling error for procedure 'plug-in-resynthesizer':
The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?
and
An error occurred running python_fu_heal_selection
RuntimeError: The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?

Well, still no screenshot of your gimp setup - layers etc.
That is a small image, but with a single layer it would go like this
30 seconds. https://i.imgur.com/zprBBYd.mp4

If in your selection settings, there is the "Feather edges" option active ... it won't work.
Disable that option and it will work.

I just tried w/o feather edges of the selection and both worked just fine
EDIT: Wow... I did it again but with a large feather edge ➤ @MrsP-from-C thumb-up, You might have got something here If the feather edges is large it will produce that error
EDIT2: definitively MrsP-from-C did put the finger on it, if the feather edge is larger than the half of the "Context sampling width" it will produce an error
For instance if context sampling is 50, the feather is 27 should not be larger than 25/26 or you got the error
[attachment=12241]
Below the very same selection, but I increased the Context sampling to 60 for the feather edge 27 to be below 30 (half of the context sampling) and it worked
[attachment=12242]
All these numbers might be relative, though, but you got the idea, if an error occurs ➤ increase the context sampling width to be more than twice the feather edge of the selection, or reduce the feather edge of the selection to be less than half the number in the context sampling width.
