Some notes on installing Gimp 2.10.x in Ubuntu 22.04 (jammy)

The Ubuntu software centre will give you a snap version 2.10.28 - not a lot of use
The regular Gimp from the ubuntu repository (repo) is 2.10.30 which is ok, but stuck at the version.
This demo shows using an additional repo (PPA) 
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntuhandbook1/+...buntu/gimp 
Go there and see how to install Gimp.

There is a glitch with this PPA, the latest libgegl is required. In terminal run

So I'm trying to make my own Minecraft resource pack using GIMP, and while i'm trying to use a size 2 pencil, i noticed that it's the same as a size 3, does anyone have a fix?

I am recreating the center of a pinball table. The problem I have is the blue area, I think the background itself is consistent (though it is hard to be sure,) but the squares pattern ranges from almost faded out light blue with small dots at the bottom to dark blue with mostly filled in dots at top. How would you handle something like that, a consistent overlay and some kind of mask?

Hello ,
I have 2 questions:

1) Can I convert my RGB photos in CMYK in the new Gimp version 2.10.32 ?
    (I'm having to use for the moment an online site called rgb2cmyk.org).

2) Once a RGB photo has been converted into a CMYK photo, what happens if I want to work again on that same CMYK photo with softwares such as PAINT, PICASSA JPEGview ?
Is it still CMYK or does it become RGB again ?
(I know this may sound like a silly question...)

Thank you

I just switched to Gimp from Photoshop. I mainly use it to create 2D images of clothing which is then imported into a 3D engine for usage on avatars. I have gone through tutorials and feel I understand blending modes.

The one issue I have with Gimp is that for example I derive an outfit from let's say an image of a Red Dress. I want to make one that is Blue. So I create a new layer and use a foreground color of Blue. When the layer blends with the layer below the Blue for example with Red I don't always get the exact shade I want. I have tried all the main blending modes and still am not happy.

With Photoshop I was able to create an adjustment layer and remove most of the color from the Red layer so that it blended properly and gave me the correct shade of blue I wanted.

There are no adjustment layers with Gimp. What is the best way to remove the color the color of bottom layer so that the Red is removed and leaves a light gray or almost white layer?

Hello wonderfull person,


When I use any "selective tool" (lacet; square; etc) and I want to add more selection, I can't add it to my previous selection (event while using "shift")...  It really problematic (time consuming) because I have to do one selection at a time, extract it and do it again with the next selection....

HELP!!!!

Thanks in advance!!!!

Hi,

When I use the "fill tool" on a area: Inside the area, some pixs are missing and outside, some pixs appear. I probably did something without knowing it. It use to be fine but now, I'm unable to go back the way it should be.

I need help plaese!!!!!!

Thanks in advance!!!!

Though I found previously this subject in forums, the problem doesn't seem to have the same origin.

I have only this message (and the crash) with the pictures I downloaded from icloud today, even with the lightest (test with 96k).
I can open some oldest coming (previously) from icloud and the same iphone with 7.8 Mo.
I have opened this "today's" pictures with "Photos" and tried to register it; but then, same crash with Gimp.

These pictures are on the same disk.
I uninstalled and reinstalled Gimp 2.10.32.

When I run one of my plug-ins which uses GEGL from the terminal I get the following error messages and many more:

/usr/lib/gimp/2.0/python/gimpfu.py:865: Warning: Two different plugins tried to register 'GeglOpjpg-save_c'.

I am assuming that when I updated to GIMP 2.10.32 from the PandaJim repository it has loaded a new version of GEGL.

How do I solve this problem?

I am using Ubuntu 20.04
