After some great help from this forum I've nailed down my Gimp plugins and bash shell commands. However I want to launch them from a shell script and they're failing from there.

Any thoughts on what I could do differently?
Starting with "open" at the beginning doesn't work because then it treats my command line parameters as parameters for "open" and not for Gimp.
I set out on the task, as described in the Subject Line, to modify an 8 x 8 -points subject. I find that I not only misunderstand those methods, but can't even isolate the pixels of interest.
I have some familiarity with Color Mapping, Color Exchange, Rotation, Levels, Colorize, etc. But I'll be damned if I can operate on ONLY the intended region.
The attached 1) Starting Point shows a Grays 'center dot', which I seek to shift to Greens.
I wish to affect only the region depicted in 2) Intended Selection, selected via Select > By Color.
When 3) Copied, and Pasted as New Image - Alpha blend is evident, which is grand, as the shading is intact. But so is there a shaded background, which I wish to exclude, as depicted in
4a) But so is background, bleeding through - Untitled, and
4b) But so is background, bleeding through - Untitled.png
– – –
I've a feeling I needn't even extract that center-dot as a separate 'frame' to work in, but that would seem irrelevant –– when I get it shifted to Greens, I'll just paste it back in the Starting Point image.
What is it[s] I'm missing about simply selecting a region, to copy-and-paste, for modification. Why is the background haunting me, and won't let go?
Also, any hints on the overall objective are warmly welcomed.
I need help with the resynthesizer plug-in and in particular Heal transparency code. It works perfectly fine with all my images except for a new batch that i received recently. The error and messages are: GIMP Message:
Plug-in 'Heal selection' left image undo in inconsistent state, closing open undo groups.
Plug-in crashed: "resynthesizer" (/home/ariotta/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/resynthesizer) The dying plug-in may have messed up GIMP's internal state. You may want to save your images and restart GIMP to be on the safe side.

In connection with troubleshooting my bigger project (thread here: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Gimp-P...d-question) I'm trying to create a really simple plugin to open an XCF file in the GUI. Eventually I will make this non-interactive and make it a wrapper to launch my other function, but for now I just want it to open the GUI and use pdb.gimp_xcf_load to open my XCF.
I know definitions are not completely needed, but having them seems to make it easier to call a function from the command line, so I have a definition for now.
The command line opens the Gimp UI, but doesn't open my XCF, and throws some errors. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here in this very simple plugin?

Hi,
I am on macbook pro Big Sur, I am using gimp 2.10 and trying to install plug-in from Da Big Gimping.
I followed a persons instructions but was unable to get it installed.
Steps opened gimp
preferences
Folders
plugins folder see attached screen shot.
Closed program after reopened gimp still not showing up.
Help Please
I have a working Gimp plugin that takes an open XCF, adds a new layer to it, positions the new layer, and then exports a JPG.
However, the plugin only works if I'm in the Gimp UI and the XCF file is already open. I want to run it from the command line and some how call pdb.gimp_xcf_load somewhere top open the XCF, but I can't get the file open or command line to work.
What is the best way to do this? Should I have a wrapper script that opens the XCF and then calls my working script? Or can I both open the XCF and the JPEG in a single plugin? Is there a best practice?
I'm using GIMP 2.10 on Windows 10, and I haven't done anything about the default Scripts location: C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\scripts
There are theoretically 53 .scm files in this folder, all but one added by the GIMP Installer, but nothing shows up in Filters > Script-fu except "Console", "Refresh Scripts" and "Start Server"
This folder is listed in Edit > Preferences > Folders > Scripts, so it *should* work, right? Am I missing something elementary?
I have this greyscale image which I made from a layered colored image. The grey ranges from 26/256 to 121/256. I have made a gradient of colors similar to the colored image. I then want to be able to assign one end of the color range to 26/256 and one end to 121/256. Finally I want to take the greyscale image and convert it to color using that specific graduated color range.
I have the gradient made, but I have no clue how to colorize the gray appropriately.
Hi,
I just installed Gimp 2.10.22. I am on macOS.
When a photo is imported, the Sample Points window is empty and a message reads (in french): This image has no sample point. However, I checked Display -> Show sampling points. In Picker mode, by installing the guides (vertical / horizontal) on the image, I have the Picker window (pixel / RGB) that opens. But nothing in the Sample Points window. How do I display these sample points? Does it depend on the type of photo (RGB or sRGB, etc.)? Thank you in advance for your advice.
