Vanilla 2.10 GIMP with no plugins or anything.
I've found one other thread with the same problem but did not see a solution provided at all.
When I open a saved XCF file, the canvas shows with just the transparency, yet most of the layers are marked as "visible," and I also am unable to change to a different tool, cannot zoom in or out, basically can't perform any function at all. I am still able to "close" the project and GIMP recognizes that by showing GIMP up top instead of the project name, yet nothing in the working area changes. I think it may just be the XCF file is corrupted, but this same issue comes up with 2 other projects.
I don't think this is a GIMP issue as I am still able to create a new project, and even open up older XCF files. And a fresh reinstall still creates the same issue.
Converting the file to PSD at least shows the canvas correctly but still "stalls" the program.
I tried to just recreate the project by basically tracing over the exported PNG in a new project but that same file appears to have corrupted as well.
Any ideas?
