Hi,

first a short introduction to myself: i am a retired photographer and have changed to Linux (Debian 12) using darktable and gimp. Everything works well with one exception: i can't configure my graphics tablet to better support my workflow.

So, first the facts: Debian 12 with Gnome, Gimp 2.10.34, Wacom Intuos Pro Small (PTH-451)

I want to utilize the keys and the wheel while using Gimp, but looking at Input Devices the Options available are xwayland-tablet-cursor/eraser/pad/stylus , but no options to use the keys or the wheel. Pushing the Wheel Button it says : Wacom Intuos Pro and that's it

As there is no Driver or support from Wacom i am just wondering how to utilize these functions.

Thank you all in advance for any help

Hello!
I'm new user of Gimp and I would like to know which version is recommended to use? The last one?
Thanks!

Is there a script or an extension that I can use to add the gps location from its exif data to the image as a text or a watermark? Thanks

I am considering upgrading Gimp from 2.10.32 to 2.10.34.  I am using Windows 10.  I tried installing gmic but I get an error message when I execute Gimp libicuuc72.dll not found.  A little research tells me the driver is in Gimp 2.10.34.

I usually use the defaults upon installation.

I am generally satisfied with 2.10.32 but if a new installation has benefits that I can use I want to give it a try.  What will I lose?  I have a lot of custom templates.  Will I have to remake the templates?  I also have several keyboard assignments.  Will I have to remake the keyboard assignments.  I also have several default folders set up.  Will I have to reestablish the default folders? There are likely other features I customized... dockable windows?

When making a change like this I usually clone the OS drive so I can revert to the way it was if things don't work the way they are intended.  I want to know if there is something I can do to preserve Gimp the way I am using it or will I have to reconfigure everything?

Hi there,
I would like to program instagram posts ahead of time. It is possible from the mobile app once I switch my account to creative account, but not through a web browser. But I want to do it from my laptop because it's much more handy and because I prepare the pictures I want to publish on gimp (so on my laptop).
So far,  I have tried to :
- use firefox making it pretend that it's a mobile version. no succes. accessing instagram through a web browser won't work, even from a mobile, I guess
- install a android emulator (or virtual machine, I 'm not sure) named Waydroid on my laptop (linux ubuntu). No success because the touch-screen emulation does not work well enough, I could never post anything.
- install Istekram. No success, would not even pass the splash screen.

I plane to try other virtual machines/emulators and see if one does the trick.

But maybe someone here would have pieces of advice ? I'm open to Windows only solution too.
thanks

edit : just tried the program Ramme accoding to this website, with no success unsurprisingly as the page is old (2019)

hi
   I  set  clone  then     click  on a  part of  the  pic  I  want to  take
colour  from

thats  ok  but  as  I  move  the  brush  to   put  colour on  pic
the  circle  over  the  orig  color  moves.....  surely  for  best  results  that  should
remain  still   getting  the  exact  colour  I  want  ?

thanks  for  help or  comment

The "Environment map" selector in my "Lighting Effects" filter remains empty. Are there special constraints? I tried with an image of the same size as the layer, with and without an alpha channel, and could never get something to choose from. Both images are garden-variety 8bpc... What am I missing?

Hi, Im trying to get a glass effect over this image so it looks as though its framed. Im not sure if the colour needs changing on the image as well but i want it to look as real as possible. Can anyone help please. 

TIA 
Andy

I wrote some plugins which get executed via the Popen() function. They were working just fine, but after upgrading to version 2.10.34, all they do is generate error messages about not being able to find certain msys dll's. All 3 dll's exist in both the "GIMP 2/bin" and the appropriate msys folder. The plugins still work when I execute them manually from the Windows Command Prompt, so what do I have to do to get them to work again with GIMP?

I have thousands of images to process. I would like to apply a custom palette to each. 

So Alt-I > M > I brings me to the custom palette menu

all that's easy to automate with a mouse macro even

but the rest isn't easily automated. i want to apply the "Grays" default palette to the image

and then i have to scroll down and use the search to find "Grays". it will always be the "Grays" palette.

then click convert

I would like a one button solution. 

1. load the image
2. click a button to apply the "Grays" palette < this is the part i want to automate
3. do my edits to the image
4. save it

can this be done with python maybe?
