GIMP has a Python console, and several built-in plug-ins are written in Python: https://docs.gimp.org/3.2/en/gimp-filters-python-fu.html We want to make macros simpler (some of the work I helped out with for GIMP

And rectangles, triangles, and other custom shapes too I hope! :) I'll do my best. I might actually finish cleaning up the code for the version in the video and post a WIP merge request so people can start trying it out and designing h

That's up to you. Right now filters work the same way - you can merge them automatically on creation, merge them at some point while working, or merge them on export. For formats like PSD, we'll eventually add the option to export

Yes, it's planned for transform tools and already possible with filters. Technically our transform tools are already capable of this (they use GEGL operations the same as our non-destructive filters). We just need to tweak it to not im

Ah, hey! We've been busy with getting 3.2 finished, but I plan to go back and read over your latest message once we've recovered a bit. :)

That was a feature in GTK2 (the GUI library we use) that was removed in GTK3. We could try to fight the library and reimplement it ourselves, but it'd take a developer dedicated to do it. I miss the menu icons too. :(

by cmyk_student 7mo ago
If you mean the color icons, you can easily switch back to those in the Welcome Dialog that appears when you first open GIMP (look in the Personalize tab). It's the first thing I do when I install GIMP on a new machine. :)

I can't speak for all of us, but generally no (in terms of GenAI at least). There are concerns about generated code not being compatible with GPL, and honestly a lot of the drive-by GenAI coded merge requests tend to not work.

The current non-destructive UI is a bit of a compromise - we can't really mix layers with NDE filters in the layer dock until GTK4 (from what I understand), so the pop-up menu is what we had to work with. You can check "Merge filt

Hi! What was the last version of GIMP that you used before 3.0? We get an equal amount of "GIMP's UI never changes!" and "You changed too much of the UI in the latest version", so it's difficult sometimes to fi

There's always the GFig filter, which has existed in GIMP for a long time. :) GIMP 3.2 actually adds vector layers, which are the basis for a shape tool (it was my "big project" for this release). We have a GSoC project idea

by cmyk_student 7mo ago
It's because each transform was "destructive" (like filters use to be by default). What link & vector layers do instead is store a transform matrix, so each transform just updates the matrix instead of actually re-rasteri

Do you happen to have a reference to GTK implementations of pie menus? The challenge we've run into is that newer versions of GTK "streamline" and remove features, so we have to either discard things or build our own replacem

It's funny to hear that, because we get a large number of complaints that we haven't changed GIMP's interface at all from 2.10 to 3.0 and that's why we're "failing". We try to be respectful of existing u

No need to wait! In GIMP 3.0, you can shift-click multiple layers in the layers dockable, then drag them around on the canvas with the Move tool.

For what it's worth, we're trying to encourage more feedback from designers and users to make GIMP better. We have a public repo dedicated to UX/UI discussions: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Teams/GIMP/De

If I understand correctly, "omnisearch" would be pressing a button to pull up a box to search through all the menu options? If so, then yep, GIMP's had that for a long time by pressing "/".

Right now you can import/export CMYK JPEGs, TIFFs, PSDs, and JPEG-XL. You can also soft-proof to simulate print, and the color picker/selector can be set to show CMYK values for your assigned profile. A full CMYK mode is on my TOD

Unfortunately we don't have as many macOS testers so we tend to get less feedback. However, it looks like it's an issue in one of the dependency libraries - there's discussion at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME

Just FYI, changing icons/themes/tool groups is even simpler in 3.0. In the Welcome Dialogue that pops up on start, you can change all those settings in the Personalize tab. You can also access that dialogue under Help.

You can change both if you like (it's one of the first things I do whenever I install GIMP on new systems)! In 2.10, you can change the icons in Preferences under the Icon Theme section, and remove tool groups in the Toolbox section. I

I think both of those are resolved in GIMP 3. You can multi-select layers, and when you do it shows the total boundary for all selected layers. If you're willing to try it out, feel free to share if there are other issues you'd li
