TOPIC SOLVED what I did: I uninstalled GIMP. then i removed its file in user folder, in program files and basically everywhere else i could find gimp related folders (found here: http://un-install.info/181288/uninstall-gimp.html. then restart and fresh installation. that's it. -- Nic (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

[Gimp-user] How to get position of main GIMP window?
1. I load a file in GIMP as follows first_file = os.path.join(PathToProcess, filename) img = pdb.gimp_file_load(first_file,first_file) 2. I try to get the position of the file as follows wdw = gtk.Window(gtk.WINDOW_TOPLEVEL) xm,ym = wdw.get_position() xm, ym returns as 0,0. I have tried different ways to reference the main GIMP window, but it does not seem to work. How should I get the position of the main GIMP window (with my file opened) on the desktop ? -- sunslick (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Rich404, you rock! Thank you. I deleted my version of the plugin and installed yours. Works great now! Good to know png is lossless. I assumed anytime something was compressed that it would be at the expense of quality.

I can't figure it out for the last hour or some going through everything and googling. Why my text (even the text tool box) is semi-transparent even though the layer is 100% opaque?

I downloaded my plugins from >http://registry.gimp.org/node/27986 > Resynthesizer has not been updated much, but there is a later version than the one you downloaded. I bundled 32 and 64 bit version + the python plugins some time ago. Guessing you will use the 64 bit version. You can get them here: http://www.mediafire.com/file/gwc928wmwti30g3/resynth_win_32_64.zip There is also that link + a short video on usage here: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Resynthesizer-heal-selection-plugins-for-Windows 3 minutes duration. I really advise looking at it at least once. Back to your problem tiff. Made with PS CS5 - 18509x11441 pixels, ppi set at 300 (for printing) 8 bit but, always a but... It is in indexed mode. Gimp 2.8.22 will open it in Win 10. There will be error messages about invalid TIFF tags. When the image finally opens. Go to Image -> Mode and check RGB rather than Indexed. Make your selection (and you did not say how large that is) invoke heal-selection, set your parameters, Ok it and wait. The screenshots are in a Win10 virtual machine with **very limited** resources, so should be no problem in a reasonable computer. It might still fail for various reasons, too large a selection, too much pixel border. If it does there will be some other way. Gimp always has, 'some-other-way'. You need to give details. You can save the file in Gimp .xcf format if you need to do more work on it. Exporting, .png while compressed is a lossless format, If worried about quality use that.

[Gimp-user] Heal selection Errors
Thanks. I tried saving as PNG (despite being concerned about file compression). It still yielded the same results. If I take a small screen snipping of a swath of the image, I am THEN able to use heal selection on THAT image. There's something about the tiff I'm using (and it apparently carries over when I convert it to something else). Again, I'm trying to keep this as high resolution as I can. The link to an image can be found below. It's 65MB so I was unable to attach. Most of the tiff files at the link below give me the error. The one file in question is the USA map image from the "Planning" Tab. https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/digital_products/vfr/ To Rich404's questions: -not sure the "format" of the tiff I thought .tiff was the format.
