  Eraser not working
Posted by: SoundOfSilence02 - 01-29-2023, 09:54 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (9)

I use Gimp to clean up JPG files, primarily using the eraser tool. The eraser suddenly quit working, probably because I accidently clicked on something I shouldn't have. I have done Google searches and followed all the suggestions I've found. Nothing has worked. I have un-installed Gimp and reinstalled it. Didn't fix it. I have reset everything to defaults. Didn't fix it. Can anyone help?

Thank you!

I was told that Layer Effect can help create one like this.

Not sure how to produce one.

  changing active layers
Posted by: salamander017 - 01-29-2023, 06:54 AM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (9)

Hello all. I just got into gimp and also have very little knowledge in scripting.

I have 2 black and white files with little difference.
I want to compare them using gimp.
For the process, I import the 2 files in different layers.
Then, using color exchange, I change the black to blue in one layer.
Then change black to red in the other layer. 
The blending for the second layer will be multiply.

My script below gets an error when setting the second layer active I think.

(define (script-fu-set-active-layers image layer)
  (let* (
    (layer-list (gimp-image-get-layers image))
    (layer1 (car layer-list))
    (layer2 (cadr layer-list))
  )
    (gimp-image-set-active-layer image layer1)
    (plug-in-exchange RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image layer 0 0 0 255 0 0 0 0 0)
    (gimp-image-set-active-layer image layer2)
    (plug-in-exchange RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image layer 0 0 0 0 0 255 0 0 0)
  )
  (gimp-displays-flush)
)

Thank you very much.

  image with various objects
Posted by: Daddaj - 01-28-2023, 07:44 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

Hello everyone
I am new to Gimp. I am not familiar with much of the terms so I couldn't research my question. I hope someone here will help me.
What is called an image with various objects of the same theme? I suppose such objects are meant for extraction as separate images to be used singularly. If so, how to do that using gimp? 

Thank you a lot

  London is a disaster

This a tragedy, but could only happen in the end-of-the-universe which is London.

  Python Fu - mkdir not working
Posted by: BaconWizard17 - 01-27-2023, 03:52 AM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (6)

Hi all, I've got another Python-Fu question. I'm trying to set up a script for exporting a file. As part of that, I want to create a new folder for the output if it doesn't exist. Here's the code:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env python

# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import os
from gimpfu import*

def folderCheck(filePath, newFolder):
   filePath.append(newFolder)
   outFolder = "/".join(filePath)
   outFolderExists = os.path.exists(outFolder)
   if outFolderExists == False:
       os.mkdir(outFolder)
   return outFolder

def exportPNG8(image, layer):
   filePath = pdb.gimp_image_get_filename(image)
   filePathSplit = filePath.split("/")
   fileName = filePathSplit[-1]
   outFolder = folderCheck(filePathSplit[0:-1], "PNG8")

register(
   "python_fu_marvelmods_export_png8",
   "Exports a texture to PNG8 format.",
   "Exports a texture to PNG8 format.",
   "BaconWizard17",
   "BaconWizard17",
   "January 2023",
   "Export as PNG8",
   "*",
   [
       (PF_IMAGE, "image", "Input image", None),
       (PF_DRAWABLE, 'drawable', 'Layer, mask or channel', None)
   ],
   [],
   exportPNG8,
   menu='<Image>/Marvel Mods/Export Textures/By Texture Format'
)

main()

Everything here is functional except for the part that creates the new folder. I don't have a function for exporting the image right now. My plan was to work on that after I got the folder creation part figured out. I tested the folderCheck function outside of GIMP in regular Python (with some expected inputs), and it worked completely fine and created the expected folder. Here's that test code for comparison, which worked flawlessly:

Code:
import os

def folderCheck(filePath, newFolder):
   filePath.append(newFolder)
   outFolder = "/".join(filePath)
   outFolderExists = os.path.exists(outFolder)
   if outFolderExists == False:
       os.mkdir(outFolder)
   return outFolder

filePath = "C:/Users/ethan/Desktop/Test.xcf"
filePathSplit = filePath.split("/")
fileName = filePathSplit[-1]
outFolder = folderCheck(filePathSplit[0:-1], "PNG8")
 
Does GIMP just not have permissions to create a new folder, does this function not work in GIMP, or is there something else going on here?

Edit: Something I thought of: Is creating the folder even necessary? Or will GIMP automatically create a folder if it doesn't exist for export?

Question Html doesn't display images on tablets and cell phones.
Posted by: Krikor - 01-26-2023, 05:33 PM - Forum: Watercooler - Replies (6)

By opening the .html that comes in the DOC folder that comes with most of the Ofnuts plugins, I can view its content properly.

But when doing the same using a tablet or mobile phone, only the text is loaded, the images only display an icon where an image should be.

As a solution, I had to download Carmem's e-book on my cell phone and thus have proper access to the html content.

Is there any change I can make to the html code so that the images are displayed on these other devices as well?  Huh

Thx!

  How to install gimp-avif-plugin ?
Posted by: Sunweb - 01-25-2023, 05:09 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (7)

Hi. Could please anyone explain - how to intall this plugin (https://github.com/novomesk/gimp-avif-plugin) to gimp?
As far as I understood it is for linux (sorry, I am just a ordinary windows 10-user). And there is no instruction on how to make it work for windows?
P.s. I would like to try this plugin as with inbuild gimp settings, but even with lossless encoding image change some color in some details on the picture.

  Path lines and arrows changed from solid to broken
Posted by: PaulH - 01-25-2023, 10:00 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

I've been using Gimp for some time (this forum has been invaluable) and lines and arrows I drew with path were always solid.

They recently they changed to broken lines for no reason I can account for, the breaks varying according to the orientation of the line.  Try as I might including looking at how to create broken lines I have not been able to get the solid lines back, advice please.

I'm attaching examples of how they used to be and how they are if drawn now.

  Trouble Opening Gimp
Posted by: Charles Page - 01-24-2023, 02:31 PM - Forum: OSX - No Replies

Good Morning, I recently downloaded Gimp to learn image editing (I have used PS in the past...poorly but I found it worked when I needed it) and to use for my personal projects/business.  After downloading and installing the 2.10.32 version directly for Intel on my 2016 Macbook Pro (running Catalina) I had no problems with the drag and drop method of installation.  When I click on the Gimp icon the program acts like it is opening but it just stalls out and force quit ends up saying that the program is not responding.   This is after some time (setting the computer aside and waiting for the application to open).  Have I missed something?  Is there some step that I am not completing to run the software?  Thank you guys.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
