Beautify plugin ART > Life Sketch causes error in (Windows 10 / GIMP 2.10.30) libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll

In fact any Beautify effect fails the same way.

[url=https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gimp/-/issues/8060#environmentversions][/url]Environment/Versions

  • GIMP version: 2.10.30
  • Package: installer from gimp.org

Have used this plugin in the past without any issues.
Noticed the error in GIMP 2.10.28 so updated to 2.10.30 but same error.
The preview pane in Beautify appears alright, but when I OK the effect I get the error message.  

Plug-in crashed: "beautify.exe"

  Problems with circle-slash on paint bucket and rectangles ***Resolved
Posted by: gimphusker - 04-06-2022, 10:38 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hi, I am having problems with the circle-slash problem with rectangles and paint bucket.  BTW, Windows 10 Pro, Gimp 2.10.30

I want to make glossy buttons for my visual basic project and found a youtube video:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ecs0yk4Vasw.  I have used the instructions on the video to make several buttons, but now am encountering the dreaded circle-slash error. Here is what I do: Create a new file: File=>New and set the size to 360X240. Like in the video, I use the paint bucket to make the canvas white. So far so good.  Then when I try to make a rectangle (which I have done many times in the past), I get the circle-slash.  Based on the help on the internet, I click on Select=>All and I am able to create the rectangle.  I set the size to 240X120 with a rounded radius of 21.  Then I click on Select=>Save to Channel like in the video.  Then I create a new layer as per video.  Unlike the video, I want to fill the rectangle with red.  When I click on paint fill,  I get the circle-slash error again.  When I click the select=>all, my rectangle disappears.  I have no idea what has changed between when I was able to do this before and now am fighting it.  I really like Gimp but the problem I have with it is that I can accidently click something with my mouse and blow things up. As information, I have researched this problem on the internet and have tried what I have read to correct it: making sure there are no locks on my layers, making sure that select=> all is selected and so on and so forth.  I am not having any luck.  Please help me.  (Let me know if I need to send pictures of my settings.)  Thank you

Question Huge difference when converting sRGB to CYMK with Separate+ Plug-In
Posted by: Luax - 04-06-2022, 04:42 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (4)

Hello community,

today I tried to export a GIMP image created in the standard sRGB color profile to a CMYK color profile by using the separate plug-in. This is required by the printing house to avoid color deviations between the design and the final print. Unfortunately, when converting it with the separate plug-in, a massive color difference can be seen. Maybe you can tell me what I am doing wrong?

    sRGB
    CMYK
    separate settings

Looking forward for your assistance!

Software used:
GIMP 2.10.30
Separate+ for GIMP 2.10.6


Yours,
Luax

  Resize selection made by Ctrl+A
Posted by: kiwichick - 04-06-2022, 01:06 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (7)

Sorry if this seems a silly question but can someone please explain why, when in rectangle select mode, it isn't possible to use Ctrl+A to select all and then resize the selection from that? No transformation handles are available. Is there a reason for this?

  Checkerboard.. why?
Posted by: RustyBolt - 04-05-2022, 01:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (8)

I loaded an RGB image which I added an Alpha channel to and then decomposed it. I pasted another image into the alpha channel and then did a compose into an RGBA image. At this point the image it shows me on the screen now has a checkerboard pattern on it even though none of the channels had any transparent areas. I saved the image as a png. If I open it with a different program it appears normal. If I open it with Gimp, it as the checkerboard pattern on it.

I am new to Gimp, so I would lke to know what this is indicating and how to remove it?

  Gimp freezing on Open/Export files
Posted by: ratapof - 04-05-2022, 01:43 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

Hello, for a while now, gimp has been very slow or stops responding on every file operation. 

I have tried uninstaling gimp and even formated my compter recently, and i am still experiencing the same problem.

I have read on other threads about "phantom drives" which could caus gimp to freez but i have not found any of that on my computer, though i am not quite sur what to look for.


The only thing that works is right clicking a file and choosing "open with gimp".
All other file operations either take 10 minutes to load, or fail.

i have tried, uninstalling and re-installing
i have tried formating my computer
i have tried disconecting my computer from the internet

Thank you!

  luminosity-tiler-0.1 - Error
Posted by: Krikor - 04-04-2022, 06:33 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (2)

Filter: luminosity-tiler-0.1.py
Author: Ofnuts
Date: 2013

I have two images open.
- The image on which I want to apply the filter and the image that contains the Tiles.
- Tiles used are those from XCF in the sample file provided on Sourceforge (LuminosityCircleTiles.xcf).

I activate the image, activate the filter, indicate the image with Tiles in the filter...

The error below appears:

  GIMP Error
Calling error for procedure 'plug-in-pixelize2':
Procedure 'plug-in-pixelize2' has been called with an invalid ID for argument 'image'. Most likely a plugin is trying to work on an image that doesn't exist any longer.

  Tiles from Luminosity Warning
Procedure 'plug-in-pixelize2' has been called with an invalid ID for argument 'image'. Most likely a plugin is trying to work on an image that doesn't exist any longer.

I've never used this plugin before, I just installed it and was wanting to try it out. so I don't know exactly if I'm doing everything right or if I'm doing something wrong.

Maybe an outdated plugin?

Thx

  Trying to get "oft-interleave-layers" plug-in to work.
Posted by: gooose34 - 04-03-2022, 06:10 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (10)

Hello all,

I need to get some GIF work done and do one of the most brutal tasks of all: Adding text to a GIF (dun dun dun)
I downloaded the oft-interleave-layers plugin from Ofnuts' list of scripts here . I got the .zip, extracted the .py file into my plug-in folder (Home > .config > GIMP > 2.10 > plug-ins > oft-interleave-layers.py). This plug-in folder is the first folder in my Preferences options. The .py is also executable.
I am not able to get the plug-in to even show in my menus however. The documentation states that the plug-in should be available under Image but after numerous retries and fiddling, I am not able to get this to work.

Any help would be appreciated.

I find it ironic that I'm spending more time getting this to work than manually adding the text to each layer lol, but I know that it'll save me time in the upcoming projects.


After some more fiddling, I found a solution to my own problem. I am on Manjaro, and I don't know what the equivalent would be on other distros/platforms.

I had to install the python2-gimp package from the AUR. I either did not have the package that GIMP needs for plug-ins, or the script doesn't work with python3, or maybe both! I don't know what happens for what reason in plug-in development, but oh well. Any way, the plug-in works like a charm now.

  invalid file type?
Posted by: alano9999 - 04-03-2022, 03:52 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

HI - I am new to GIMP but just installed the 2.10.30 version. I have a few images that I want to have GIMP modify. So after I load GIMP on my MS Windows 10 64 bit OS and then go to FILE=>OPEN and select a file, I get a message from GIMP for the file that I am trying to open - Opening 'C:\Users\GP Standalone\Pictures\bow2.jpg' failed:

Unknown file type 

If I copy the same image to the Windows clipboard and then use FILE=> CREATE (from Clipboard), I have no trouble seeing the image in the GIMP workarea. I can then SAVE the file as an ..XCF and then Open it successfully. However if I try to export the work from GIMP to a say x.jpg file, I get the GIMP message - The given filename does not have any known file extension. Please enter a known file extension or select a file format from the file format list. 

Does anyone recognize what is happening here? Thanks
