| Simple GIMP question |
|

I am using GIMP 2.10.18
I wanted to create a geometric object in GIMP but decided to do it in AutoCAD and plotted it as a pdf which worked fine. I did it white on black in Acad and it came out fine as black on white as a pdf.
I tried to import it to GIMP and rotate and resize it to suit the Youtube icon of 300x300 pixels.
I got what appears to be a transparency layer added but there is only one layer containing the pdf. I am obviously missing something but if this workflow is fundamentally incorrect it would be good to know.
Any tips would be welcome.
Tony

I had been working on an image for almost an hour when Gimp crashed. It may have been a conflict with MS Edge browser because the browser greyed out and could not be accessed. I was able to close the browser with task manager. All the other open windows seemed to be ok.
Then when I restarted Gimp I was informed that there had been an unexpected closure and I was asked if I wanted to recover. I gave it a go and to my surprise most? of the open and unsaved images were recovered including the one I had been working on. The ones that did not reappear were the open files that had not been worked on.

| smudge working like paintbrush |

The smudge tool on my Windows 11 PC is not picking up colour. On first opening it does so, but then stays with that colour ever afterwards. In other words, it has become identical with the paintbrush.
I have reinstalled several times without being able to correct this behaviour.
Also, the latest installation has adopted Spanish as its language and I've been unable to reset it to English, partly no doubt because I don't understand the instructions I'm getting in Spanish.

Hello everyone, I would like to use the AI plugins for gimp and I'm trying to install the packages (babl and gegl) and gimp from source following https://github.com/intel/openvino-ai-plugins-gimp
Unfortunately I get to an error when building gegl. Below is the final part of the error:
Code:

Am I missing anything obvious? My laptop has an intel CPU and nvidia (quadro) GPU
Thank you very much for your help

| Layers Disappear |

Hi guys. I have gimp 2.10.36 running on a 2018 iMac. My image is 1024x1024. I made one multi layered image without issues. The second image I tried to create gave me some problems. I right click on a layer in the layers window and create a new layer. I have it set and don't change the default. Most of the time, a new transparent layer appears and I can edit that layer and it won't affect the others below. Today, I have 5 layers and I tried to make layer 6 but everything disappears from the screen. This is only for layers below the newly created layer. If I create the layer at the very bottom, the rest of the layers are fine. If I create a new layer on the top of the stack, everything under it disappears. I have no idea what's going on. Can someone offer some insight as to what's going on and how I can fix it?
Thanks

| 500 times the same font |

Hello!
When I open up the font selection dialog in gimp, I see about 599 entries with the name "Noto Sans ... " and something or the other, with an interesting looking thumbnail to the left. However, when cycling through all these fonts, the appearance of the text never changes. It's an almost comically bad user experience. It probably has something to do with localization or whatever, but .. yes it needs to be fixed. I'm scrolling through a single list with 1000nds of fonts, all looking exactly identical. This is the wrong way. It could be so simple, just let the user put fonts in a folder, and browse the folder from within the font dialog...
I looked into hacking a way around this, like manually editing the tags.xml file but... not convenient.... If there are any other options, I'd love to hear about them. (adding tags via the interface, makes the interface freeze up.)
thnx !
ps I'm running linux mint 21.2
