Brand new to GIMP so sorry if this is a stupid question but I couldn't find the answer.

I have a pdf of labels I'm trying to print on stock. If I print directly from Acrobat they fit; the last label starts at about 9.75".

But if I open it in GIMP the last label is about .25 inch too high on the page. So it doesn't seem to be retaining the correct page size when I open it.

It's a standard 8.5 x 11.

I know in Photoshop if I try to do the same thing I have to specify to Crop to Media Box when I import but I don't see a similar option in GIMP.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hello there,

I've been looking for answers for 2months on my issue and the only threads i've found are from people complaining about GIMP running slow and no solution found.

I'm not an expert in programming or computer basically, but is there any manipulation that could solve this issue? Is it possible to go back to a previous version of Mac OS and would it help (in your opinion)?

I loved GIMP because it's a really good app for digital painting. I've never used any other app but since this bug came out i had to. I was hoping a solution would have been found by now but it seems to be a big(Sur ) issue...

Thanks a lot in advance!


PS: sorry for my english, i hope it's understandable

I'm able to successfully create a clipping layer mask, however once I do that I can only draw one color, which for me is gray, and I cannot change it.

I have made a coin, but need it to turn around, the same image will be at the back, how do you do it, is there a tut for it.

Hi
When I click on the Toolbox menu entry the toolbox panel does not comes up. nothing happens.
I am able to add layers, do selections etc but not able to access the toolbox.
I was trying to set the FG color while creating a layer mask and discovered this problem.
I did not spot any error message from gimp 
any pointers greatly appreciated

GIMP 2.10.30 on Xubuntu 20.04

While performing other operations, I have found that the entire frame of reference for gimp (image, guides, etc.) is rotated by holding Shift-B2 (middle mouse button) and dragging the mouse.  [Note that this is NOT the same as using the Rotate tool to physically rotate the image itself withing the fixed overall frame of reference.]  This always happens accidentally and I have found no way to reset the view back to normal.

Here are my questions:

1: Is this type of rotation documented in the manual?

2: Why would you want to do this?  When you save the "rotated" image it seems to be the same as "non-rotated".

3: Is there any way to reset the view back to the normal exactly orthogonal position?

4: Is there a way to disable the Shift-B2 assignment so that this doesn't happen?

Thanks.

Certain filter dialogs have the ability to save Presets -- for example, the Sharpen (Unsharp Mask) filter or the Adjust Color Curves tool.

What I cannot figure out is how to delete an existing named Preset.  Also, if I change parameters and try to overwrite an existing named Preset, a new Preset is created with the same name, but each now have #1 and #2 appended to the names, cluttering up the Presets list.

It looks like the Presets are being saved in the ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/filters  directory.  I can exit GIMP and edit the appropriate file, but  this seems wrong.  Isn't there a way to remove them from within GIMP?

I looked through the documentation but didn't find  and general discussion of removing Presets.  Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Gimp is so different than ps. On with the basic newbee-death-freeze.
After scaling, or any transform,Layer is non-practicable.
How to normalize the layer & move on?
Thanks

Hello,

First of all, thank you Ofnuts for all the hard work & support.
I'm trying to use the path-grid-0.1.py plugin described here : http://gimp-path-tools.sourceforge.net/d...haped-grid. But as it turns out, that guide seemed a bit outdated (at least the install info simply doesn't work for 2.10) and since I didn't see a thread about any ofn-grid thingies in all the 24 pages i figured there was none to be found. I've searched this forum for "ofn-grid" or "hex grid" but no luck there either.
I downloaded the .py file and put it at ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/path-grid-0.1.py, but I don't see python-fu as an option and cannot find the tool either... I successfully installed and used it on another PC using gimp 2.8, but I'd really like to have both that plug-in (I didn't manage to generate an hexagonal grid with the default functionalities) and 2.10 functionalities (mainly Fill Path, which I believe is not available in 2.8).
I figured maybe it was because the python wasn't a valid command, but aliasing python3 as python didn't solve the problem either...

I am very inexperienced with GIMP so it is entirely possible that i'm missing something obvious or that I'm looking for a complicated way out of a simple problem.
Anyway, any help would be much appreciated, thanks in advance !

Hi, is there a way to do this in GIMP?
