Re: [Gimp-user] HATE the new save vs. export behavior

2013-10-11 Thread Melleus
I work with the tool from its version numbered 2.4. And I use it
primarily as a photo processing tool. I can say that the save/export
feature is a very logical one from my point of view as I can be sure
that I have ALL THE INFORMATION in the SAVED image as long as I can have
only PARTIAL INFORMATION in the EXPORTED image. Have you ever got to
redo some hours work when you think that you saved the image but in fact
you really exported it only?  The features that I really miss are the
high-bit color depths and better CMYK and Lab colorspaces support. And I
beleive we won't get them faster if we mess the developers in teapot
tempests instead of giving them our appreciation.

P.S.  If you really prefer accidentaly loosing your information you can
surely redefine hot keys.

Is high-bit color depth and other [than RGB] colorspaces support [LAB
and CMYK at least] already implemented or am I missing something?

Good news! Thank you. Looking forward to high bit color depths support
in 2.10. And this makes a road to other colorspaces a bit easier to go
either.

Everybody who prefers to lose information when exporting the work to jpg
instead of saving it and posesses the skill of reading could find in the
manual the way to remap the hotleys. No problem to discuss.

Did you try ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick for that? It's a way faster and
richer in opportunities. And there's no save/export problem. Why live
with a problem that is so easy to eliminate? Completely eliminate. Do
you eat spaghetti with a spoon?

Sorry then. By the way, ImageMagick is a very capable software for image
resizing. More capable then GIMP I beleive. It has 16 bit color depth by
default (and can do even floating point) and a number of high quality
computation algoritms for resampling images to choose from. Sometimes
it's faster to type some command line, than finding the way through the
GUI. And I do use GIMP either.

[Gimp-user] GIMP 2.10 cannot open raw files

2019-04-28 Thread Melleus via gimp-user-list
Hi, all!

I had updated my GIMP installation to v2.10 recently. After that I've
lost the possibility to open raw files. I get the message proposing to
install either Darktable or Rawtherapee. But I have installed and working
Darktable in my system. Looks like v2.10 just cannot detect it. Also I
cannot setup particular raw processing program in preferences.

I use Gentoo (stable branch), GIMP 2.10.8 and Darktable 2.6.1.

Does anybody have a clue what's happening? Thanks in advance.
