  Can't move or transform layer without edit mask
Posted by: Brain2xml - Yesterday, 03:21 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hi!

Gimp 3.2.4

I added mask to layer. When I use any transform tools (move, rotate, scale etc) with mask selected icon everything works well, all affected to mask. But when I select layer icon all action affected on mask as well, even "Edit layer mask" unchecked

  Arrow modules don't work
Posted by: johnrose - 07-17-2026, 02:30 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello,
I am trying to get arrows on GIMP 3.2.4 running under Ubuntu 22.04.

I have tried two modules:
* The script arrow_v3.scm (https://blog.weetech.ch/2025/10/how-to-d...lugin.html). I put it in "$/snap/gimp/560/.config/GIMP/3.0/scripts", made sure it is executable and restarted GIMP. It is supposed to show in the Tools menu, but nothing is there.
* The plug-in pl_stroke_arrows (https://github.com/Scallact/gimp-stroke-...me-ov-file). I put the folder in "$/snap/gimp/560/.config/GIMP/3.0/plug-ins", made sure that pl_stroke_arrows.py is executable and restarted GIMP. It is supposed to show in the Edit menu, but nothing is there.

Any idea about what the problem is? My GIMP is the French version, could that be it?

Thanks for your advice, John

  Change Border Color
Posted by: Jon - 07-16-2026, 12:15 PM - Forum: General questions - No Replies

How to change the border color of the top Title line of the Welcome dialog, from darkish gray to white. See the diagram.
   
It's harder than changing any of the other borders, because it's hard to discover the CSS class or selector that controls this border.

  Straighten Crooked Photos
Posted by: Grizz56 - 07-11-2026, 03:51 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I am using GIMP v3.2.4.

My grandmother had a 1920s photo album that she gave to my uncle before she passed. My uncle let me borrow the album to digitize photos for posterity and to share with the "clan." The album's pictures are so old and fragile that I could not remove them from their pages without destroying them. I wound up using a flatbed, full color scanner and scanning whole pages at 300 DPI. I would have scanned them at 600 DPI, but scanning 75 two-sided pages with two-to-three pictures per page would have taken twice the time and twice the digital footprint. Even at 300 DPI it still took me a few hours to carefully scan the album. Plus, you cannot improve image quality that did not exist in the first place.

I have already rotated pages 180° for the ones I scanned upside down to prevent damage to the album, and rough-cropped individual images down to their far borders. Now I need to straighten them out before I crop them further or use GIMP to remove the old-fashioned picture "corners." Most of the corners are (were) black, some brown, and quite a few were red after late 1928/early 1929. Pictures should be straightened out before cropping further or removing picture corners to help reduce anomalies. Not all, but most pictures need to be straightened by less than a couple degrees of rotation.

Does GIMP have a built-in tool, or can I download a plugin for v3.0 that will allow me to straighten pictures, so they truly are perpendicular?

I am new to using GIMP, but I am no stranger to photo, video, or audio editing. Thanks in advance for any helpful information.

  Printing Size Issue
Posted by: RCMIKE76 - 07-11-2026, 04:22 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Dear Smart People,

I am having issues trying to print to a Custom Paper size. I am trying to print to 8.5" x 17" paper. I am getting really frustrated after days of trying to figure this out.

I am using Gimp 3.2.4
Windows 11 Home
Canon TS7720 DeskJet Printer
64 Bit

Here are the steps I have done thus far:

1) in the printers settings I created a new paper size that is custom and set to 8.5" x 17"
2) in Gimp I have my canvas at 8.5" x 17"
3) in gimp I selected the custom 8.5 x 17 paper size, printer paper size is set to "same as page size"
4) In Gimp Print-Image Settings I checked "Ignore Page Margins"
5) In gimp Print-Image Settings I try to change the Size to 8.5"x17" but it will not go above 5.5"x11"

Something I have noticed and not sure if they are relevant to the problem. Every time I go into printer preferences inside of gimp it does not keep the page size I had set even though I checked always print with current settings. It reverts back to Letter 8.5" x 11". The box I had checked for Always print with current settings is no longer checked. I am wondering if this could be the problem. If so how do I fix it.

Thank you in advance!
Mike

I have something fun to share.
The process: A Question, An Idea, An AI - 10 Minutes later a free powerful useful tool
The tool: Seamless Doodle Tile Maker

And then lately I just added (well CHatGPT added for me too) the ability to load a downloaded tile (or any square image I guess) so you can add details to by doodling over top.

Then I wanted it a bit even friendlier for those that like share their pattern and others can edit even easier
for example I uploaded my Seamless Tomato Pattern Tile to imgur.com and got the image link and pasted into the Tool's latest version and got a friendly link
so anyone can play with seamless pattern (if they so wish): Seamless Doodle Tile Maker (preload with Tomato Pattern)

I guess my hope is people have fun doodling their own patterns and sharing their seamless tile/pattern with GIMP users.
Ok that's it, for now.

Maybe share some seamless tiles of your own in this thread.


GIMP CHAT. COM is down right now too
