Resynthesizer |

I'm using Gimp 2.10.14 in Windows and Ubuntu 18.04.
I am easily able to place the resynthesizer plugins into the proper plugin directory in Windows, and all the filters work fine.
Can someone explain to me why it isn't that simple in Linux, and why ?
P.S.
Had trouble with Gmic as well, but after removing and purging snap and distribution installs I was able to get it working by installing both Gimp and Gmic via apt-get.
Resynthesizer via apt-get added some but not all functionality of the resynthesizer plugins namely the heal-selection filter is missing.
Again, same version of Gimp in both operating systems so why isn't as easy to facilitate the usage of these scripts in Linux..
Thanks....

[split] Gimp settings reset after Windows update |

After an apparent windows update last night sometime, my GIMP has been reset to all the Preferences. I must make all my personal settings again. When I go through the directory of GIMP, I cannot find a folder with any fonts, but I seem to have all of them when I tested the text tool. It seems every time I have an update, something goes haywire in my Gimp Program. I also welcome any suggestions. Also, there are no scripts, plug-in, etc. that I have added. It is as though I have a completely new install.

Windows fonts no longer available |

After updates to Windows and to Gimp, I no longer have access to fonts. Arial is the only font available. I have tried a few solutions, i.e. resetting Windows font cache, re-install of Gimp, etc...nothing works. I did find an option that allows me to use Windows fonts in a separately accessible window, but the fonts are not available in the gimp text dialogs. Suggestions?
Windows 10 Pro x64 1909
Gimp 2.10.14

Reduce Number of Fonts |

Hi All,
Not sure if I should post here, or in 2.10 forum, but here goes.
I'm new to this forum, bt Ive been using GIMP for family projects for years. Home movie videos, gift certificates, flyers; relatively simple stuff. Nothing professional.
Does anyone know if there is a way to set Gimp such that it only lists the fonts downloaded to the Gimp fonts folders? It's a real pain to scroll pass all of the fonts found in the systems folder that are mixed in with the fonts I've added to the GIMP fonts folder.
My computer tech skills ended with the introduction of the 386 processor(1985ish), so Im a little out of date.
I'm running GIMP Version 2.10.14 on MacOS Mojave 10.14.6.
Any help is appreciated.

Re-instating missing plugins in 2.10 |

Some plugins available in previous Gimp versions are considered "deprecated" and can no longer be reached via the menus (the simple sharpen for instance), very often because there are better alternatives.
But you may have grown accustomed to the old ways...
In many (most?) cases, these plug-ins have been kept (because they could be called by scripts).
For occasional uses you can get find the plug-in by entering "/" in the image window. This will open a search window, in which you start typing the name of the filter you are looking for: s-h-a-r... until the name of the searched plug-in appears. You then double-click the plug-in to start it.
But if you are an aficionado and use it often, you would like to access it more quickly. There are two ways:
1) You can still add a shorcut for it using Edit>Keyboard shortcut.
2) You can even put it back in the menus:
Find your Gimp profile, and edit the pluginrc file with a decent text editor (that means not Windows Notepad ):
- locate the menu label of the plug-in: Sharpen...
- replace the 0 in the next line by 1
- under that line insert the menu/submenu where the menu label should be added: (menu-path "<Image>/Filters/Enhance")
So the file should look like:
Code:
(plug-in-def "${gimp_plug_in_dir}/plug-ins/sharpen/sharpen" 0
(proc-def "plug-in-sharpen" 1
"Make image sharper (less powerful than Unsharp Mask)"
"This plug-in selectively performs a convolution filter on an image."
"Michael Sweet <mike@easysw.com>"
"Copyright 1997-1998 by Michael Sweet"
"1.4.2 - 3 June 1998"
"_Sharpen..."
1
(menu-path "<Image>/Filters/Enhance")
(icon icon-name -1 "")
"RGB*, GRAY*"
4 0
(proc-arg 0 "run-mode" "The run mode { RUN-INTERACTIVE (0), RUN-NONINTERACTIVE (1) }")
(proc-arg 13 "image" "Input image")
(proc-arg 16 "drawable" "Input drawable")
(proc-arg 0 "percent" "Percent sharpening (default = 10)")))
If you make a mistake that makes the file in-understandable by Gimp (typically, unbalanced quotes or parentheses), don't worry, Gimp will just erase it and recreate that file from scratch, which should reconstruct exactly the version that worked before you edited it).
This will even survive changes in other plugins that would cause the pluginrc file to be updated.
