  Gimp 3.0.0 (and newer) Copying layers/images and pasting and Alignment Tool
Posted by: Imc7r - 03-31-2025, 05:26 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - No Replies

3 points I noticed

1) Pasting: 'Paste as new layer' in Gimp 2.10 is now called just 'Paste'

'Paste' in 2.10 Ctr+V is now called 'Paste As Floating Data' - this is to have a floating selection from the pasted layer like before.
no bugs with this just the difference, defaults to pasting as new layer unless Ctr+V is changed to paste as floating like I did

2) If you have Layer 1 that is 1000x1000 for example and a top layer 2 that is 256x256 but you did not make the top layer 'Layer to Image size'. You just want to copy the top layer 2 to clipboard or another new file or image.

I noticed that Ctrl+C to copy that layer copies it as if you merged layer 2 down to layer 1. In 2.10 you just copy the upper layer and it pastes with the border size of the layer not with the borders of the lower layer that is bigger. Is this intended

https://gitlab.gnome.org/-/project/1848/...3ee8/1.jpg

3) The Align tool works a bit differently - If you want to move for example the black image have to untick, choose position then tick, so it doesn't align halfway off the canvas or border of the lower image/BG

  David's Batch Processor i V3.0
Posted by: AfTech54 - 03-31-2025, 09:47 AM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (2)

I've used David's Batch Processor (Dbp) in v 2.10, the Dbp plugin appears in the Filter menu.
I've got the Dvp file in a MS OneDrive (OD) folder so I have access to my custom settings in my both computers.

Now I've added the (OD) folder to Settings/Folders/Plugins in V 3.0.2 but the plugin doesn't show up under the Filter menu.

I've also added the Dbp file to:
C:\Users\Roger\AppData\Local\Programs\GIMP 3\lib\gimp\3.0\plug-ins
C:\Users\Roger\OneDrive\Roger Private\OD GIMP Set\Custom\plug-ins

I've closed and started GIMP after each task.

Is the Dbp not compatible with Gimp 3, if so - is there any similar plugin working in V3.0?

  Converting Gimp Files to JPEG
Posted by: scave - 03-30-2025, 10:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

I have many photos stored on my hard drive. They were saved as JPEG. Somehow I clicked something in Gimp I think, that converted them all to a Gimp filea.  What can I do to convert the photos on my hard drive back to JPEG?  In Gimp they show as JPEG.   Is there a one click thing that will convert them (one's on hard drive) back to JPEG?  Also, I am using 3.02(revision 1). That was not a choice I could select when I registered.
Thank you,
Scave

  Transforming an image?
Posted by: Knusbrich - 03-30-2025, 06:31 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

First of all, I would like to mention that I am an absolute beginner in using GIMP.

I have a picture of a fence photographed from a drone. The fence looks like an ellipse in the picture, but in reality the fence is square. I have studied various videos on Youtube, but have not found one that helps me further. I imagine a kind of free transform tool where you can push and pull the frame of the picture in different places, so that the fence becomes more square. In short, it is described as changing an ellipse to a square. Does anyone have a link to a tutorial or a plugin that can help with this task?

Photo size of image in editing window
Posted by: Stevend - 03-29-2025, 05:59 PM - Forum: Windows - Replies (2)

Hi first time user here, have (rarely) used the P8888shop (sorry if thats a swear word) before but I am finding Gimp (3.0.2.1) a Steep learning curve.

All I am trying to do at the moment is find out how to make an image appear full size in the editing window rather than it being so fiddly small.  I found something onling about scaling but I am not trying to change the size of the image, I just want it to show as large as the window will allow without changing aspect ratio. In other software there is a simple "show image to window size" or something like that.
 

I am running W11 Pro 64bit patched upto date. 

I have attached an example picture which shows how much unused space in the editing window is wasted. I cant believe this needs more than a single "click" somewhere to make this the default??

Any help appreciated.

  Python Scripting Help Needed Gimp 3
Posted by: silenuznowan - 03-29-2025, 05:37 PM - Forum: Gimp 2.99 & Gimp 3.0 - Replies (1)

I have some simple batch scripts for version 2 that I am trying to convert to work with version 3, which I really like working with.

Anyway one simple script was this:

Code:
import os
import gimpfu

def convert(filename):
    img = pdb.gimp_file_load(filename, filename)
    new_name = filename.rsplit(".",1)[0] + ".png"
    layer = pdb.gimp_image_merge_visible_layers(img, 1)
    pdb.gimp_file_save(img, layer, new_name, new_name)
    pdb.gimp_image_delete(img)
    savepath = ('${DEST}' + '/' + "$1" )
    if os.path.exists(savepath):
        print('the folder exists')
    else:
        os.makedirs(savepath)
    os.rename(new_name, savepath + "/" + new_name)

from glob import glob
for filename in glob("*.xcf"):
    print(filename)
    convert(filename)

pdb.gimp_quit(1)

I'm now trying to do the equivalent with Gimp 3 but am unable to even load the file.

In Gimp 2 you could load a file with the one line:

Code:
img = pdb.gimp_file_load(filename, filename)

So now this is replaced with:

Code:
def load_file(filename):
    procedure = Gimp.get_pdb().lookup_procedure('gimp-file-load');
    config = procedure.create_config();
    config.set_property('run-mode', Gimp.RunMode.NONINTERACTIVE);    
    config.set_property('file', filename);
    result = procedure.run(config);
    success = result.index(0);
    image = result.index(1)
    return image;

def convert(filename):
    img = load_file(filename)


Only this results in the following error

Quote:TypeError: could not convert 'interior-starship-doors.xcf' to type 'GFile' when setting property 'GimpProcedureConfig-gimp-file-load.file'

So it looks like instead of expecting a filename for file the new python api expects an object of type GFile to be passed, and I was wondering how I do this?

Thanks in advance.

Update: I managed to figure things out using Gio so my new load_file function looks like this:


Code:
def load_file(filename):
    file = Gio.File.new_for_path(filename)
    procedure = Gimp.get_pdb().lookup_procedure('gimp-file-load');
    config = procedure.create_config();
    config.set_property('run-mode', Gimp.RunMode.NONINTERACTIVE);
    config.set_property('file', file);
    result = procedure.run(config);
    success = result.index(0);
    image = result.index(1)
    return image;

While this works, I'm wondering if I'm also supposed to dispose of the Gio.File object, and if so how do I do that?

Thanks in advance.  Also if there's any interest I can post the whole version of the new script.

  ofn3-export-layers
Posted by: Ofnuts - 03-29-2025, 04:40 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (17)

This is ofn-export-layers ported to Gimp v3.

So far this is done without added functionality, for instance it will still export everything and not just the selected layers.

Any good ideas for enhancements welcome.

At the usual place for V3 things.

Enjoy.

  Error while parsing
Posted by: rdoty - 03-29-2025, 04:38 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

When I load Gimp 3.0 I get this message "Error while parsing 'C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\3.0\devicerc' in line 9: invalid value 'a' for token select-criterion

Is this a problem and how do I correct?  Also, could this relate to some of the problems I had with a previous thread, difficulty removing jpeg background?
