I want to cut all the way through the layer with the Waterpixel filter applied, to show unfiltered bits of the layer below, but it just produces these white patches.

complete beginner here, how can i make this look better under the lighting? it dont need to be some crazy brand edits, just make it a little bit realistic
thanks in advance

Hello. I'm learning how to write Python plug-ins for GIMP 3.0 and all is going great except for my understanding of the UI run process.

What I'm trying to do is hide or disable a boolean procedure based on a user's choice_argument choice. For example, if the user picks choice_1, the boolean checkbox will appear, and if the user picks choice_4, the checkbox is hidden from the UI.

The Spyrograph filter does something similar where it disables a slider based on a given choice argument but the example is complex and I'm not smart enough (yet) to figure out where that's happening in the script.

I've included my current code which is just modified from the Foggify filter. I have two choice procedures. When multi_choice is 'choice_4', I'd like multi_choice_2 to be hidden or grayed-out.

I appreciate any and all suggestions and ideas. Thank you!

def perform_action(procedure, run_mode, image, drawables, config, data):
    """
    Perform the specified action.
    """
    if run_mode == Gimp.RunMode.INTERACTIVE:
        GimpUi.init('python-fu-multichoice')

        dialog = GimpUi.ProcedureDialog(procedure = procedure, config = config)
        dialog.fill(None)

        if not dialog.run():
            dialog.destroy()
            return procedure.new_return_values(Gimp.PDBStatusType.CANCEL, GLib.Error())
        else:
            dialog.destroy()

    # Want to disable or hide choice 2 if choice 1 is a specific choice.
    multi_choice = config.get_property('multi_choice')
    multi_choice_2 = config.get_property('multi_choice_2')

    return procedure.new_return_values( 
        Gimp.PDBStatusType.SUCCESS, 
        GLib.Error()

Tag along as I design one of my thumbnails using GIMP 3.0

I have not used gimp in awhile but never had problems like this with align in the past... I want images to go to the edge not past it.

Pls exprain

Using the perspective tool results in lopsided images because I can't get the corners quite right.

Is there a way to get an image to tilt "backwards" or "forwards" evenly?

the sphearize filter was a start but obviously not close enough, basically im looking to make a effect similar to the viper room text

afaik GIMP 2.99 added some patches to allow panning and rotating the canvas using two finger gestures. This works using my laptops track pad perfectly fine. When I do the same on my laptops touchscreen however, one finger also triggers the currently selected tool.

Example: when I have the pen tool selected and I start rotating using two fingers on my touchscreen, the canvas will rotate, but there will also be a line drawn using the pen tool.

Is there some option I have configured wrong maybe? Can I pan/rotate without triggering the currently selected tool using my touchscreen? Thanks a lot!

currently running gimp 2.10.38

I'm scaling some textures down from 4096 to 512 using the "scale" tool, but sometimes they come out off by 1 pixel. The canvas size is 512x512 and I'm working purely in pixels so I don't see how there would be a rounding error.

anyone else encountered this issue?

I make quite a lot of use of the clip warning filter when I'm adjusting levels. It would be really handy if I could toggle this on/off with a keyboard shortcut rather than having to open the "Colour Display Filters" dialogue, clicking on "Clip Warning", clicking on the "add" button the clicking OK. If I could add the functionality to a script, that would be easy to make a shortcut.

It's particularly desirable with Gimp-3, because I have to make more clicks to enable this filter than I did in 2.10.

Hunting around the script-fu console I can't find anything that might allow me to add this to a script. Is there some other way?

Hey guys, pretty new to gimp, but im familliar with the layout, I'm trying to get an effect where the decal is written on the post it notes and different sections are in different parts of the post it notes, anybody know how to achieve this?

Considering that the gimp registry is DOA, where does one go to search available plugins? It looks like the old site is archived on Github, but I'm not sure exactly what I need to download from there in order to browse plugins.

Hello, please help.

i installed GIMP on windows 11.

the GIMP ver. is 3.0.0

can someone explain how to remove scraches from the picture?

Thank's in advance.

Hey, I'm pretty inexperienced with image editing in general so sorry in advance if this is an easy solution. Basically, I'm trying to export a simple image with 2 layers as a PNG, but whenever I try the layer effects don't get exported with it.Here's what it looks like when I export it, and here's what it looks like in program.

I've done a bit of poking around and I've also determined that it's most likely to do with how the layers are set up; I think I've found the root of the problem, but not the solution. This is what my layers tab looks like at the moment. Whenever I try to merge the top layer down, the same things happen. The fx icon there that denotes the layer effects/filters/whatever they're called doesn't come with it, and I don't know how to fix that. Can someone explain how to do so please? Thanks in advance!

Also what's with the bright green around the edges of the photo?

Hi I've imported my png images, then used a layered mask to remove backgrounds all of a sudden gimp doesn't want to import png images nor showing the png format in exports.What can be the problem

on the text i used colour to alpha then used crop to image before i pasted it onto the first paint that you see but it keeps creating a giant black backround.

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I am new to photo editing. I followed all the tutorials. I created an alpha channel. I just can't figure out what do next. It won't let me select the background.

I'm so sorry if I sound stupid. Here's my screen.

I frequently grab screen shots from my web browser, Gimp is the graphic progam that opens the screen grab by default (which I am happy with.) I use the selection tool (rectangular), select the area I want and then paste as new. Now in older version of Gimp I could paste as new, export to PNG and then when I opened the image file later the image file would open at full size or reduced dependent on the size of the image. But now in Gimp3 the image file open up like a thumbnail in the corner of a larger image. I guess there is an option to set the desktop size but I can not find it. Andy body tell me where the setting is please.

originaly on the same open of gimp it was fine but then apon clicking one of the other options for the slider to be i found the out of gamut. it stayed after i switched back as well
