  Fonts won't leave Gimp
Posted by: QuinB - 02-09-2020, 06:53 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (11)

Hi All,
Can anybody suggest what am I missing, here? (Apart from the good sense to quit when I'm beaten, I mean).

I've got around again to investigating the 'Gimp only shows the default font when I try and use a font' problem on Windows 10, as shown in this thread: Gimp-Forum – Fonts Can't Be Used 

However, I don't seem to be able to clear the fonts I'm investigating out of Gimp!


.webp   Gimp fonts list 02.webp (Size: 5.47 KB / Downloads: 378)

The fonts are DEFINITELY NOT IN: 
C:\Windows\Fonts
C:\Users\QuinB\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts
C:\Users\QuinB\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\fonts
C:\Users\QuinB\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\fonts_storage§
%PROGRAMFILES%\GIMP 2\share\gimp\2.0\fonts
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps

Listed in Edit > Preferences > Folders > Fonts
§ Referenced by the Sean Bogie, MareroQ, Ofnuts' addonCollectionManager-3.0

The Windows services
Windows Font Cache Service
and 
Windows Presentation Foundation Font Cache 3.0.0.0
were disabled, the system rebooted and 
C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\FontCache and C:\Windows\System32\FNTCACHE.DAT deleted (and verified as deleted) before a further reboot and restart of the above services.
(I've even tried refreshing the fonts in Gimp after many restarts of the same)
And yet the fonts are still listed on Gimp, as shown above.

Again, can anybody suggest what I'm missing???

Photo Error Installing GAP
Posted by: jjs3 - 02-09-2020, 03:50 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

I am running 2.10.14 and I Install GAP 4.10.2 

Then  go to preferences/folders/plugins and then add the GAP folder to plug-in then restart. 

I have tried this a few times with the same result-of this error: 
" The code execution cannot proceed because cygwin1.dll was not found. Reinstall the program may fix this problem." 

What am I doing wrong.

  Default precision when opening via RawTherapee?
Posted by: mortoray - 02-09-2020, 12:23 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Is there someway to control the precision used when opening a file via RawTherapee?

Right now it always ends up in 16-bit integer, but I'd prefer 16-bit float mode. I'm hoping it'll actually use a float export as to avoid clipping, but it'd also be convenient enough if it just auto-converted afterwards, saving me the extra step.

  Inserting Page Number Along With Additional Information
Posted by: Gimpy222 - 02-07-2020, 11:43 PM - Forum: Extending the GIMP - Replies (8)

I need to insert page numbers along with other information at the same location in over 300 pages.

It the example below I need to add "Introduction - Page X - Book II" to the center, bottom of a page, 50 pixels from bottom edge to bottom of the text box. X =  page number. Text is size 100, font Times New Roman Bold, anti-aliasing turned off. Later on it will change to "Chapter 1 - Page X - Book II", "Chapter 2 - Page X - Book II", etc.

I'm using Gimp 2.8

Is there a script available to this?

Thanks Sandy

  Problems when using a drawing tablet
Posted by: Handyman282 - 02-06-2020, 07:02 PM - Forum: OSX - Replies (3)

Hi, I bought a used drawing tablet from Wacom (Bamboo Fun) and installed the latest drivers. 
The tablet is not recognized as an input device in Gimp 2.10. Accordingly there are problems when using various tools in Gimp. So I ordered a brand new tablet from Amazon (Gaemon), because it is explicitly identified as Mac and Gimp compatible. Also this tablet does not appear as input device. I opened Gimp with and without a pen. Without result. Anybody got a hint?

Question Trouble installing a perl plug-in
Posted by: Rincewind - 02-06-2020, 06:12 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (6)

I got a waving flag plug-in for gimp. The file is called flag-waving. I copied it to the path '/home/rincewind/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins/'. Made it executable for all users. I started Gimp and can't find the plugin.

Operating System: Lubuntu 19.08
Gimp: 2.10.8
I got the plugins folder path by going to Edit > Preferences > Folders > Plug-ins.
flag-waving appears to be a perl script, it has a shebang line, but not a .pl extension. Not sure if that is an issue.
I installed it with snap, and not apt, if that makes a difference.

What am I doing wrong?

  Cut out graphitti from the grill
Posted by: PeterLageri - 02-06-2020, 08:28 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (1)

Hello.

How can I cut out the graphitti from the grill?

(See attached picture) 

Can I some brighten or make its color more stark so it can be changed into a seperate layer?

I scale this item in a layer bigger and then the item seems to disappear even though the layer is still there, visibility on and everything. When I undo the scale it appears again:/

Hey Guys,

I'm struggling to insert the photo in the message board so I attached it instead. Does anyone know how to apply the curve effect to text?

  Could you create this youtube tutorial in Gimp 2.10?
Posted by: ak34ue - 02-05-2020, 02:45 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (3)

Obviously I know you can but my worry is the snap feature and the automatic crop and save to the guides? How would I save a single image into ten different images?
Do I have to individually crop and save every picture? 

I guess my big question is:

How would I be able to recreate this in Gimp?
