I go to gimp.org click on docs. So far so good.
But this.
>The manual is also available online on a dedicated website.
Is not very intuitive for people without English language knowledge.
Please make it more obvious. Maybe a direct link instead of this overview page.
When resizing a vectorlayer to image size it jumps diagonally.
To reproduce:
Open a new image, draw a path (3 or 4 points), convert to vector-layer (stroke only).
Then open python console and do this:
image = Gimp.get_images()[0]
layers = image.get_layers()
layer = layers[0]
Gimp.Layer.resize_to_image_size(layer)
I'ld expect the path to stay in place, instead it jumps away a few pixels.
Expected behaviour? Or bug?
GNU Image Manipulation Program Version 3.2.4
git-describe: GIMP_3_2_4
Build: unknown rev 0 for linux ( installed from PPA, as well as official AppImage).
It would be helpful if you could tell in the layer stack that a layer is a vector layer—similar to the “A” for text layers.
It would then also be easier to tell whether it was rasterized by an action.
As the title.
When I drag a colour to the layer mask of a layer it fills the layer itself instead of the mask. Am I doing something wrong? It would be very practical to drag and drop the colour instead of showing mask fist, then fill with colour and un-show it again.

We cannot yet stroke a vector layer with a brush, can we?
It's only full color or pattern?
Now if I do it the old fashion way via right click on the path I can stroke with a brush - but the stroke is cut off by the layer size. I can't make the vector layer larger - unless I rasterize it?
So why use a vector layer ... or better stay with the old pre GIMP3 habits?
From time to time I have to print labels. Last time I did this was in April and it printed as expected. Two days ago I printed the same labels on the same system and printer ... and they were cut off at the left side!.
Why is that so, what might have happened?
My system is Linux Mint 22.1 (both times). Printer is Brother DCP 357 c.
Libreoffice was 25.8.6.2 in April and 25.8.7.3 now.
Would be very grateful to know where to look for changes that did this and how to correct that mishap.

I need a working example to recreate this simple curve:
I've tried this:
c = Gimp.Curve.new()
c.set_curve_type(Gimp.CurveType.FREE)
c.set_sample(190/255, 145/255)
filter = Gimp.DrawableFilter.new(layer, "gimp:curves", "")
config = filter.get_config()
config.set_property("curve", c)
config.set_property("channel", Gimp.HistogramChannel.VALUE)
config.set_property("trc", Gimp.TRCType.NON_LINEAR)
layer.append_filter(filter)
But the result is not the same.
Please help.
As the title. Asking for someone else.
Don’t have that equipment myself, can't imagine it works.
Hi,
using the gradient editor with the dark default theme, can any of the developers really easily recognize which segment is the active one?
Please: how can we make that so that it's clear where we are. I'm really struggling with this tool and not even being able to see what's active does not make it better.
I have created a new image in GIMP, opened a vector graphic that I made from scratch in Inkscape. So far so good. Did some coloring and moving around in GIMP. I saved my work. Checked metadata using exiftool. And found this:
Comment : Created with GIMP
Metadata Tag Name : Exif.Image.BitsPerSample
Metadata Tag : 8 8 8
Metadata Namespace Prefix : photoshop
Metadata Namespace Url : http://ns.adobe.com/photoshop/1.0/
I never used PS, so why is that in my files?
PS: just found out: it's already there when I just create a blank new picture with transparent BG and just save it as .xcf.
Is it really necessary that we have adobe in our OPEN Source made files?

Hi,
is there a way to have a progressbar in the statusline for a python plug-in?
I've managed to display some text there, but not a real progress bar.
How can I make the onscreen Text tool fully opaque?
This seems to me like a crazy idea to make it transparent and it's really annoying when your eyesight isn't the best.
(GIMP 3.2.4, Linux Mint Mate, GIMP's dark default theme)
I need to make some changes to icon colours using the coloured icons not the stylized together with a dark theme.
Therefore:
I've copied the Default Icon folder from /usr/share/gimp/3.0/icons to ~/.config/GIMP/3.2/icons
Renamed it
In the scalable/apps subfolder I recoloured some of the icons using Inkscape because black is not well visible in a dark theme
I've then opened GIMP's settings and selected this copied icon theme, deselected the 'use stylized'.
As expected the icons show coloured now --- but my changes are not there.
So something that I've always been able to do in GIMP 2.10 does no longer work.
Why is that so? What did I do wrong? How can I make it work?
(Using Linux Mint MATE 22, GIMP 3.2.4 PPA, Default dark theme, changed icon theme)
I need some frames/ borders round Elements because I cannot see where they start and end.
I've tried this in GTK-Inspector:
GimpOverlayDialog.background
{
border-color:rgb(128, 128, 128);
border-width: 2px;
border-style: solid;
}
menu menuitem{
border-left: 1px solid rgb(128, 128, 128);
border-right: 1px solid rgb(128, 128, 128);
} GimpOverlayDialog.background
It works.
Putting the same stuff in ~/.config/GIMP/3.2/gimp.css
Does not work. Why is that so? How to make it work?

Where would we find a documentation on how to create GIMP3 themes?
What are minimum requirements for a theme to be recognized as such by GIMP3?
(PS.: I know how to change the ones delivered with GIMP, but how to make a new one from scratch)
