Use GIMP Hidden Images for Shadow Removal
There are hidden images in the GIMP layer mode display. There is nothing profound about this, the layer mode presents as a solid color. When a filter is applied to the upper layer, the layer mode interaction changes, and an image appears.
The hidden Divide layer mode image together with Colors-Exposure can produce a very effective shadow removal.  
1. Duplicate the image.
2. Use the Divide layer mode.
3. Apply Colors-Exposure to the duplicate.
4. Adjust the sliders to make a preliminary image.
5. Adjust the opacity slider for the layer to complete the procedure.
Like any procedure, this one works on some images, not on others.
To capture a hidden image:
1. Apply the filter of choice but do not click OK.
2. Apply Edit Copy Visible and then Paste As New Layer. This will cancel the filter and the layer image will not be affected.

How can I enlargen the font size of the titles and text of the menus, dialog boxes etc.? They are too small on my 14" computer screen. I have enlargened the tool icons. I use Windows 11.

I saw on the Internet that an image ppi /dpi can be changed within gimp. I think I have seen before that you cannot change an image to look good if the ppi is changed.
Assuming the image is already large but has a small ppi - 72. Can it be successfully converted to 300?

Hi to all.

I have simple question but I'm unable to find answer. Use GIMP 2.99(dev) but question probably is unrelated to version.

How to see error from calls to GIMP functions?

Imagine that I put this (in .scm file or in Script-fu console):

From time to time I use GIMP 2.10.8 for creating animated .gif-files from .pdf files so that when viewing the .gif-file every two seconds another page of the document is visible.

When importing the .pdf-file and hereby selecting "Open pages as layers" each page of the .pdf-file is a layer on its own.

The problem is:

Assume the .pdf-file has n pages.

After importing:

Layer 1 has name "1" and shows page 1 of the document.
Layer 2 has name "2" and shows page 2 the document.
...
Layer n-1 has name "n-1" and shows page n - 1 of the document.
Layer n has name "n" and shows page n of the document.


When exporting this as .gif-file, then the animation starts with page n of the document and ends with page 1 of the document.
I. e., the animation shows the pages of the document in reversed order.

Thus, for the .gif-animation to begin with page 1 of the document and to end with page n of the document, reversing the layer order before exporting is needed.

By now, after importing the .pdf-file,  I click "Layer" - "Stack" - "Reverse Layer Order" and I get:

Layer 1 has name "n" and shows page n of the document.
Layer 2 has name "n-1" and shows page n - 1 of the document.
...
Layer n-1 has name "2" and shows page 2 the document.
Layer n has name "1" and shows page 1 of the document.

When exporting this as .gif-file, then the animation starts with page 1 of the document and ends with page n of the document.

Question:

Is there a possibility to have the layer order reversed automatically at the time of importing the .pdf-file, without the need of doing so much clicking?

Any way to get tool icons larger than huge for visually impaired? Thanks. 2.10.34 on Windows 11, Lenovo X1 Yoga

Hi all. I'm using gimp 2.10.34 (version 2) on an iMac. I am trying to create a filled in path that has smooth, curved lines. Specifically the collar on a T-shirt. I draw my path, and then fill it with the desired color. But when viewed against a contrasting background, you can see how pixelated it is. The image size is 1024x1024 I just follow a path of the collar using the paths tool, then I use the paint bucket to fill it in. 
 Is there a quick and simple way to smooth out the edge of the collar?

Hello Gimp-Forum !

I would like to announce the release of a new version of G'MIC, numbered 3.3.0.
It was released yesterday, and I'm very happy with it



Do not hesitate to upgrade if you are using this plug-in for GIMP, as new filter updates will be pushed only for this new version in the future.
Cheers,

David. 

PS: I forgot to give the URL of the project: https://gmic.eu

i noticed that recently(? not sure in which version this change was made), pressing the keys “ctrl v” no longer pastes as a floating selection, but as a layer

how can i make it so when i press ctrl v, the clipboard contents are pasted as a selection instead of a layer again?

specifically not reassigning the shortcut to “paste into selection”, because that only pastes into the existing selection, and doesn't allow me to move the pasted contents outside of the existing selection
