Hi!

Quite some time ago someone aksed for a tool like PS "Automatically align image layers" - an 'intelligent' tool that would scale, rotate and perspective match layers, basing on their content. I coulnd't open any of the links posted in that thread:
http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=5153

Is there such a script available for Windows?

I´m trying to use that Python PlugIn and it doesn´t work, maybe I´m doing something wrong or introducing wrong parameters.
I need an example to make it work.

I´m using the last version GIMP 2.10.6
pdb.file_heif_save(image, drawable, uri, raw_uri, quality, lossless)

Thanks in advance.

Is there a 2.10.6 appimage anywhere?  The latest I can find is 2.10.5.  I have issues with Flatpak:  It says I already have 2.10.6 installed, but it is 2.8, and I don't know how to remove it.  When I try to start Gimp with Flatpak it starts 2.8

first post, hope i'm in the right place and all that.

ok, i'm a GIMP n00bie, learning the ropes. i've run into a situation that i know how to handle the brute force way but i'm wondering if there isn't a more elegant approach.

i'm starting with the hex tile on the left and want it to end up looking like the tile in the middle, in other words remove a part of it to transparency. the area i want to remove looks like the blow-up on the right, if that's helpful.



needless to say i can, and did, use the eraser to do it the "hard" way. there are about 50 more to do so if there is an intelligent way to do this -- meaning something that is less meticulous and/or fewer steps -- i'd love to hear about it. any suggestions would be appreciated.

in case anyone is curious these are tiles used for fantasy mapping in an app called HexKit. the purpose here is to create tiles that can be used as overlays, here to add coastline to an arbitrary land feature as opposed to being limited to the grasslands of the original tile. the moded tiles would be for personal use, not for distribution.

Since a few weeks I use GIMP 2.10.4 and now 2.10.6. I've consulting many sites and forums concerning the plugin Resythesizer, this for using the plugin 'heal selection'. I found a youtube movie to do this : 'GIMP 2.10 Tutorial: Resynthesizer is Better Than Photoshop's Content Aware Fill'
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J61ExvqNcBQ. After installing, Gimp 2.10.6 (64) start up without errors and all the menu items are found in GIMP. When I make a selection and use the 'heal selection' plugin, I get following error :  The texture source is empty. Does any selection include non-transparent pixels?. The heal selection is not done. What's wrong? Suggestions ? Thanks in advance!

I am learning Gimp and Inkscape I'm using a laptop with only a 14inch screen which I find annoying to say the least.
Really I want a second monitor mainly to watch tutorials while working, so I'm just wondering if its worth it buying a £60.00 21 inch monitor on Amazon would it benefit my experience using Gimp. I really dont want to invest 100's of pounds on anything right now.

Several request recently on moving tabs. The default Gimp 2.10 setup is a little cluttered. Not difficult to rearrange but users often have problems dragging the dockable dialogue tabs around.

Normally I cover this in a general setup or 'how-http:// to-fix' demo but this video is just about moving those tabs.

I am using 2.10.6 and the dockable dialogs refuse to move and are in the wrong spot. I like the default location but it won't let me do anything to it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi there Gimp Forum I have a new issue that I hope somebody on here can solve. My text size default is 2164 and its doing my nut in. Is this a bug in Gimp or can it be rectified in the setting.I've had a look and I see no option for this. I've added an attachment.

Thanks

I know how to use the clone tool : ctrl + clic to select source image, then clic.

Now to remove a wire in the sky, I create a path then I want to use the clone tool when stroking that path.

Then I get a dialog telling me to select a source image. Which I already did previously.
Steps are

• open image
  
• create path
  
• select clone tool
  
• ctrl + clic to define source
  
• select path
  
• stroke path
  
• select "use paint tool" (I translate, 'cause I use french HMI)
  
• select clone
  
• click stroke
  

• close that dialog
  

• ctrl + clic to define source
  
• click stroke
