https://www.tumblr.com/lowpursuit/168019...ts-a-guide

I have 2 questions since i'm a complete gimp beginner. I have the program installed on windows 10.

1. Where can I download the unshred layer plugin? I can only find the 'shred' one on sourceforge  

2. How to install the plugin if anybody can give me the download link?

Thanks so much for this great forum
I will have a lot to learn in gimp

I'm trying to write a script to automate some things for a project I'm working on, and one of the steps is saving a file as a png. I'm using file_png_save2. When running the script, it errors out with a "Permission Denied" message. However, I can save files to the same folder with no issue if I go through File->Export.
I'm running Gimp 2.10 on Windows 11. Here is the code for the script so far:

#!/usr/bin/python
 
from gimpfu import *

baseURL = "C:\\Users\\MyID\\OneDrive\\Pictures\\ScriptTest\\"
 
def char_img_164(image, drawable, imgid):
    pdb.gimp_edit_copy(image.layers[0])
    newImg = pdb.gimp_edit_paste_as_new_image()
    pdb.gimp_image_scale(newImg, 164, 164)
    dispImg = pdb.gimp_display_new(newImg)
    layer = pdb.gimp_image_merge_visible_layers(newImg, CLIP_TO_IMAGE)
    pdb.file_png_save2(newImg, layer, baseURL + "test1",imgid+".png",0,9,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)
 
register(
   "char_img_164",
   "Image test",
   "Test script",
   "MyID",
   "MyID",
   "2023",
   "<Image>/Image/ScriptTest/IMG164",
   "*",
   [
       (PF_STRING, "imgid", "Enter ID", "hello")
       ],
   [],
   char_img_164)
 
main()

SVG Explorer Extension

I was always bothered by not being able to view the images in explore in svg format.
In my case they only appeared with the icon of the program associated with that extension.

However, I found a way to solve the situation.

By installing the SVG Viewer Extension I can now view images in svg format!!

Interested parties can find the program at:

i currently use the "pixel (1x1)" pencil brush to draw with. with this brush, most brush sizes look somewhat off. its most noticeable in the 2px brush, although you can still see the problem in other sizes. it looks all jagged and messy, see attached screenshot
i might be simply missing or overlooking something, im not too familiar with the way brushes work in gimp
any help to fix this is appreciated!

Hi,

To not unnecessarily bother the people on this forum, I tried to have ChatGPT put a script togther for me. But ChatGPT cannot manage, however hard I try to prompt it clearly.

Here's the question:

Write me a complete python script for the Gimp that does the following for me. I will start by manually activating the crop tool and marking an area for cropping. after I mark the area I want to start the script and then it does the following for me:
- Run a crop on the crop selection I already made;
- Adjust the longest side of the image to 2000 pixels, (and the other side to ratio)
- Reduce the saturation to 0


The best it came up with after about 10 attempts, was this:

Hello
I can't print a photo on a 10 cm x 15 cm paper
However I size the photo well with "print size".
With "page setup" I select the 10x15 format (4" 6")
Then with "print" I choose the paper size 10x15 in the driver of my printer (canon TS8300 series)
But the print preview shows me a 10x15 photo on an A4 sheet
Same problem when I ask for "without margin" or "without border" or "to the scale of the paper" ... it doesn't work
Thanks for your help
Sincerely

I tried to search for it but couldn't find anything to it cause I think I don't use the good key word for it (non native english). Please is there a way to reset this number? If so, how can I do?

I am completely new to Gimp so perhaps that is why I am having this issue, but all of my attempts to install plug-ins for Gimp on the Mac seem to fail. Either that or I don't know where to find them to use when restarting Gimp. I have now tried 3 processes, none of which seem to have worked.

1) I opened the Gimp Preferences pane and opened the Folders -> Plug-ins pane. There was a path specified for plug-ins under Users/Library/Application Support/GIMP and, since it did not exist, I created it and copied the plug-ins to that path. I then restarted Gimp but could not find any plug-ins listed in the Gimp dropdown that I checked (Filters, Tools, Image and Edit).

2) I then copied the plug-ins directly to the Gimp.app Contents path specified in the same Plug-ins pane, restarted Gimp and still could not find the plug-ins. I then restarted the Mac, but that did not help.

3) I then added a link in the pane to the existing Photoshop plug-ins folder on my disc, restarted Gimp but no luck. Still can not find any reference to the plug-ins in Gimp.

I am running Gimp 2.10.34, which was the latest version I found online when I downloaded it, and my Mac is running Monterey, 12.2.1. It is running on an Intel MacBook Pro, which I am using in clamshell mode, although I don't assume that makes any difference. The plug-ins I am using are from Topaz and Skylum and have worked well in my other photo editor (PhotoLine) and perhaps they are properly installed and working with Gimp but I just can't find them. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello, its a question I have kept asking over the years.
Does gimp have a solution to removing dust and scratches from an image like Photoshop 'Dust and Scratch'?
