Batcher - Batch Image Processing Plug-in for GIMP 3 - kaybee - 03-19-2025
Hi there! I developed a batch image processing plug-in for GIMP 3.
Main features:
- Convert image files to any file format provided by GIMP and third-party plug-ins
- Export layers as separate images
- Export images opened in GIMP
- Batch-edit layers in an opened image
- Apply any GEGL filter or plug-in during batch processing (rename, scale, ...)
- Apply constraints to process only specific images/layers (matching a suffix, visible layers, ...)

Batcher - Duplicate layer - Xxxx - 09-26-2025
Hello,
Beginner here: I haven't found out how to duplicate a layer. If anyone can ridicule me and tell me how simple it is...

Well, another beginner here and tried for hours using Batcher without success.
If you look at the attached Gimp 3 script-fu plugin (To try it unzip and put the macro-3 folder in your plugins folder - registers in the Tools menu) these operations duplicate the image and add as a new active layer.
gimp-layer-new-from-visible followed by gimp-image-insert-layer
Trying those in Batcher and gimp-image-insert-layer crashes horribly.
If you have that little "macro" plugin installed, Batcher will recognise it Add Procedure -> Add Custom Procedure -> Plugins and it works, making the new layer. But for some reason the new layer is not the active layer and I can not find a way to make it active in Batcher. So not a lot of use for any following procedures.
Maybe if you give some information of your required workflow - new layer - some operation on that layer ... someone might come up with alternatives.
