These parts of your error log indicate that there might be memory
corruption/unititialized memory use problems. However, all the tests
pass on my machines, also when run under valgrind which should report
on the same type of issues as MALLOC_PERTURB_ does.

Re: [Gimp-user] ERROR: configuration_data.set10 got unknown keyword arguments "Description"

2022-05-02 Thread Øyvind Kolås
This is a problem arising due to newer versions of meson failing on
what earlier versions of meson considered OK. It is in babl master by
this commit 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/babl/-/commit/b05b2826365a7dbc6ca1bf0977b848055cd0cbb6
if you are building GIMP yourself it is likely best to build all of
babl, GEGL and GIMP from the respective git tips.

Supporting more file format versions of ABR is a known feature
request. We have a quick fix that we haven't applied yet. We need to
review it, and if it's good enough, this will make it to the next
release.

Meanwhile, you can use a Windows program called abrMate to convert to
an old version of the file format.

couple did not. I am getting the following errors:

These brushes worked fine on my computer when I was running Windows. But now 
that I am running Linux, I am getting these two errors. I also did this on my 
other Linux computers and got the same results. I downloaded the brushes from I 
am not sure if there is anything to be done, but I am just asking just in case

Hello to you
Help us to help you with this question, Windows  which one ? or Linux stable or
rolling , software from repo or self compiled, need far more info than just some
vague outline, someone has to either have had the experience of same problem or
be able to reproduce in order to help you, relax and give details and the
answers might be found if not here then go to the operating system's forum with
also more details than first post, it's OK take a deep breath.

All the best

If one looks at advancedtonemapping.scm

it invokes Gimp's internal procedure  plug-in-gauss which has limit of  
500 for the blur radius.

I think, 500 is quite a lot.

But advancedtonemapping calls it with a blur radius of

blurAmmount*(width+height)/200

When you invoke advancedtonemapping from within Gimp the first entry is

Gauss. Blur (% of img size):

Unfortunately, the default value is 10, the minimum you can enter is 1.

and with your image you have
width = 14903  height=  5239  which gives

blur_radius = blurAmmount * 20142/200 which is approximately
blurAmmount*101

So, to meat the restriction imposed by plug-in-gauss you have to set
the blurAmmount to 4, at most.

If you need more fine grained control, you'd have to modify the file
advancedtonemapping.scm, e.g. by replacing the line

(car (gimp-drawable-height theLayer))) 200

by

(car (gimp-drawable-height theLayer))) 2000


and

	SF-ADJUSTMENT	_"Gauss. Blur (% of img size)"   '(10 1 100 1  
10 0 0)


by
	SF-ADJUSTMENT	_"Gauss. Blur (%o of img size)"   '(10 1 100 1  
10 0 0)


i.e. the entry is taken as  parts per thousand.

Go to   C:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins   and delete all
.debug files - that'll make the errors go away.

You have some old Script-Fu scripts in your installation of GIMP. The

That was the problem. The scripts were from 2006-2007 for a much older 
version of GIMP.


Didn't use any very much anyway.

Hi,
but in GIMP how is possible to export in CYMK before printing?

Those catalogs would be Pantone ones.  They are usually most relevant
when printing vector graphics, i.e. silk screen or offset printing.
Printer's inks have Pantone values printed on their labels, and very
precisely match the color chips on Pantone reference cards.  I have seen
"Pantone to HTML color" charts on the network, and they are better than
nothing but far from precise.  "HTML color" means hexadecimal RGB, which
is also the GIMP's native color model.

RGB stands for Red, Green and Blue.  It is an "additive" color model,
applicable to mixing colored light sources.  Example:  TV screens and
computer monitors.

LAB stands for Luminance, Red/Green, Blue/Yellow.  It is based on
studies of human color perception and is more or less universal, but no
monitor or printer can duplicate this color space directly - it has to
be exported to RGB (monitor) or CMYK (printer) for display.

CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black.  It is a "subtractive"
color model, applicable to mixing ink or paint colors to control the
color of reflected light.

When people start talking about computer programs that can "natively
edit in CMYK", try not to groan:  The only way to edit images in CMYK is
with a paintbrush or comparable tool, because on a monitor you see the
image in RGB no matter what format the program is reading from and
writing to.

An RGB image can be exported to or imported from a file with CMYK data,
via a filter based on the intersection of RGB and CMYK values in LAB
color space.  But "what you see" on the monitor is not exactly "what you
get" on the printed page.  Upcoming versions of the GIMP with GEGL under
the hood will support /much/ higher resolution RGB color, improving the
potential color match between screen and paper versions of a given
image.  (GIMP layers can also include an Alpha channel for transparency;
hence "RGBA" values.)

In recent times I have had no problems with color management for print;
PNG files imported to Scribus and saved as PDF come out looking like I
want them to when printed.  A decade ago, this was not always the case.
I believe that LCD monitors and improvements in color conversion
algorithms probably account for this.

To get the best available color rendering, first check your monitor.  If
a color profile is available from the manufacturer, get it and install
it on your workstation machine, and make sure the GIMP knows about it:
Edit > Preferences > Color Management.  This will tweak your video
output for "best results."  An alternative to this is to glovally
disable color management and tweak your monitor by hand, see:

http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/

Color perception is also a factor:  The more neutral gray you see around
an image, the less your eye and brain will distort the colors in the
image.  Conversely, if you know that a bunch of images you are working
on will be displayed on a colored background - say a web page or
brochure - you can set the Canvas Padding color in the GIMP to that
color, and see your images in progress in their native color context:
Edit > Preferences > Image Windows > Appearance.

The GIMP includes a filter that converts the visible image to CMYK
layers, and the result can be exported as a CMYK TIFF file.  This may
facilitate color adjustment at the print shop, and any commercial
printers who still demand "Adobe Formats Only, or take your filthy money
elsewhere!" will usually accept CMYK TIFF files without complaint.

Color printing used to be a bit of a major nuisance, but lately not so
much - depending the use case, your mileage may vary.  The remaining
problem is color resolution:  If you have a big, subtle gradient you
have to get just exactly right, you are going to see banding on your
monitor and in the printed results.  The upcoming GEGL based GIMP color
model, with resolutions up to 64 bit floating point, should put a stop
to that nonsense.

:o)

You were probably referring to Pantone and Hexachrome. None of those

No longer have a copy of Photoshop—I just remember the manual talking about it,

Sorry my memory of it is no better. It was at least two decades ago that I last 
had to deal much with different color standards. Steve Kinney posted that PS 
uses LAB, which fits my memories, but I seem to recall there were one or two 
others available, at least for printing.

And regardless of whether you use RGB or LAB, printing will be CYMK. IIRC (and 
I may not) LAB is closer to CYMK.

The GIMP and Photoshop use different color models:  RBG in the GIMP and
LAB (if I recall correctly) in Photoshop.  Color conversions between the
two will be, at best, approximate.

PS has a number of different color standards (some Adobe’s proprietary 
materials)  that it can use in addition to the standard variations of HSI, RGB, 
and CYMK. I’m not sure how GIMP handles this, as it hasn’t come up in what I’m 
doing. When you export the files from PSD, make sure you are using a color 
space that is supported by GIMP.

[Gimp-user] Error in opening psd files

Unfortunately even with "Open layers" I get that error :(
The file has been produced with Photoshop, I can open with Gimp but layers are
wrongly shown.
I saw that the problem is with those layers on which in Photoshop has been
created a "clipping mask"...
Any idea? :(

2016-09-18 Thread Ross Martinek
Did you use the “Open as layers” command? GIMP will open a psd file with the 
simple “Open” command but this may result in the error message you get.

I had a similar problem when converting from PS to GIMP, but I seem to recall 
using this command solved it.

No replies? Try

This error? http://imgur.com/a/fsaFq so assuming OS = Windows of some sort

Two issues.

1. You do not have the resynthesizer plugin installed.

2. You are using an outdated script. A more recent python plugin will work
better.

I did bundle everything one time.

Get http://www.mediafire.com/download/gwc928wmwti30g3/resynth_win_32_64.zip

unzip and put 3 files, plugin-heal-selection.py, resynthesizer.exe,
resynthesizer-gui.exe into .gimp-2.8\plug-ins.

Choose the appropriate 32/64 bit versions.

Remove the old smart-remove.scm file to prevent conflicts.

If you had done a search using the words "gimp unbound variable" you would 
have found the solution on the page

https://www.gimp.org/docs/script-fu-update.html

You have an old script that is using a variable before it was defined. Make 
sure your variables are defined before you use them.

Hi!

This filter requires that the Resynthesizer plugin is installed. This is
not a plugin that is maintained by the GIMP developers:
https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer

If you need inpainting you could also try one of the methods available in
G'MIC as well (http://gmic.eu)

Sorry if the topic is obvious but i could not find any answer:
On opening psd files with gimp, i always get the error "the layer mask is partly

Re: [Gimp-user] Error.

2013-11-03 Thread Kasim Ahmic
Considering you said GIMP's been working up until today, I assume you upgraded 
to 2.8.8, right? If so, it could just be a bug that made its way into the 
stable release. You could just go back to 2.8.6 until the issue is resolved.

Other than that, I'm not really sure what could be going wrong. Maybe reinstall 
the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Package?

Best of luck!

Hi Ramon -
If you add any error mesage that show up in the console when you make

it would help you, and others to understand what is going on.

Otherwise,  since the plug-in is not part of GIMP itself, if you have
no further anser here, you might try
to contact the plug-in author directly.

[Gimp-user] Error on run Deskew plugin from Python-Fu

2013-08-28 Thread Ramon Valdez
I would like to run the (great!) Deskew plugin from the Python-Fu console, 
info: http://registry.gimp.org/node/2958
I'm a very GIMP Python-Fu beginner, so i followed what user "asperge" did in 
the post shown above (tested-working Script-Fu batch version):
get the image (active image), get the drawable (active layer) and finally run 
plugin "deskew_plugin".
I put deskew.exe in the GIMP plugin folder, i opened GIMP, i loaded an image, 
then in the Python-Fu console i wrote:

image=gimp.image_list()[0]
drawable=image.active_layer
pdb.gimp_deskew_plugin(image, drawable, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0)

I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
RuntimeError: calling error

The working Script-Fu calling was:
(gimp-deskew-plugin 0 image drawable 0 0 0 0 0)
The only difference from the asperge's Script-Fu working version is that in my 
Phyton version there's no "0" before "image".
I guess it's the "run mode" parameter.  If i try to insert it, i have an error 
for too much parameters:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
TypeError: wrong number of parameters

I would really appreciate any help.

The animated gif is fine... Windows Explorer is the problem, it does not allow
to project an animated gif when it is showed resized, rescaled etc. and of
course i tested the gif in Windows Exploer, after tips of you i tried the
animated gif in Google chrome, and there was no problem then i found a site
where my problem was mentioned.
So when i resized my gif in gimp and put it on my website (in original sizes)
there were no black lines anymore...

I am very happy now thanks for all your help, i have now a small , working
animated gif.

Don't judge the GIF quality with IrfanView, because it's actually quite

Plenty of images... except an XCF that would look like the source of an 
animated GIF?


But I don't see anything technically wrong with "animation optimize 
difference.gif", in particular I can't see the "shadows" in your 
screenshot (tries with Firefox and Gwenview, besides Gimp)

How about converting to indexed color mode before you try optimizing it?

When done right, the "Optimize" command (in either flavor) should make no 
visual difference in the resulting animation.

I agree we need to see the full file.

I've never used GIMP for animation, so I could be very wrong, but to 
me this looks like poor selection technique during the process of 
cutting and copying the figures as they climb the escalator - and not 
a problem with saving the animation process as such.

[Gimp-user] error animated Gif

2013-06-29 Thread fvn18
i made a animated Gif (Gimp 2.8) but there is something wrong.

i made an escalator with 2 persons on it, they move up the stairs in 12 steps.
i made 12 different .XCF's for every step one.

Before converting to animated gif i make the XCF's 1 layer each.
when i use the option FILTER > ANIMATION > OPTIMIZE (difference)
the animated gif leaves black lines when the persons move (see picture
attachment) the export file is very small so that's ok

When i use FILE > EXPORT > (=export as a animated gif) with the option 
delete previous frame, then the animated Gif  looks fine. but the size is 5x 
bigger than when converting the first option ( i understand why)

how get rid of the black lines ??

This happens because a much worse bug in GTK+ was fixed.
That warning will be fixed in GIMP 2.8.6, but you can
ignore it, it is completely harmless.

Ubuntu has this problem too, and I got rid of it by moving
~/.fonts.conf to ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
No need to edit a system file.

You can get rid of this error by editing /etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf
and removing the depracated="yes" attributes (be careful, and test this

Otherwise does your gimp work as expected?

If so don't worry about the messages.

Use the icon to start gimp and you will not see anything.

Did you keep Windows updated?

The problem with "older" computers is there's a lot of stuff on them, over
a long period of time. Maybe it's a conflict with another program or hardware
that used C++ and now there's a conflict with Gimp?

Have you been able to install any other software other than Gimp since?

Not to be self inflating, but the thing about restoring the computer back
to a point previous to installing Gimp was I believe the best advice.
(I have had tons of used computers over the years and a thousand such
dilemmas. Sometimes the fallback position is best.)
Or as I said getting everything you need off the drive, and running the
factory restore discs that came with the computer? But then again, it'll
have to all be updated.
Then again, Vista's nothing to write home about. Win 7 much better.
Search "Windows 7 upgrade" on ebay and right now there are win 7 or 8

But you have to look up your computer model and know whether it's

Do you have a working GIMP now?

2.7 was an "unstable" release - 2.8 likely has fewer bugs overall, but
there have been some problems reported on Microsoft Windows that weren't
present on Linux, where the main development is done.

You should probably use either 2.6 or 2.8, not 2.7.

To be honest, I'm not really sure. But I do know that there were quite a few
brushes that I didn't really need, so that could be the problem too; after the
error came around, I cleaned out all the brushes and fonts I didn't need, and

Roughly how many brushes do you have?

What is the error exactly?

It's always possible that a brush or a font that you add might make gimp
go wrong.

Yeah, decided to re-submit this thing again... lol.

Basically, every time I load gimp, it opens for me, ect; but when I close it (to
throw some brushes in, ect) it loads slower, and then it gives me a 
"C++/Library" whatever error... But I'm going to install 2.7.1 to see how it
works now, since I've cleaned out my computer of some files that seemed to be
clogging up the space.

Re: [Gimp-user] Error.

2012-11-04 Thread Daniel Smith
You know, I used to think abut that, like letting the computer rest.
That's very funny. But other than replacing the hard drive or the
operating system, which you probably couldn't do either by yourself,
here's what you really need to consider.
I wish I had thought of it earlier.
On Windows Vista you can use the restore feature to return it to an
earlier version
of the computer's setup. Preferably before whatever software changes
occurred to make Gimp run badly, or even perhaps before you ever
installed Gimp.
However, remember, this feature will totally wipe any changes made to
your computer back to the point you choose, so any files, images,
contacts, bookmarks etc you wish to save you will have to extract and
burn to a disk, ie get off the machine, before you do this process,
because it's likely they won't be there anymore.
Here's a web page about using it, and i'd research it more if I were you:

http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/

The other thing, is that I believe that the restore function does by
itself set up points to return the system to, even if you have never
initiated it and established such points yourself. But I am not sure
about that, I only used restore in Win 7. So you'll have to see what
possibilities, time periods or points, it offers you to travel back
to. And remember, I believe this will delete any installed security
patches for Vista as well, so you will have to reinstall those again,
though I have the feeling you may have not been doing that faithfully
unless it's set on automatic.
Don't you have a friend or a local shop that you could affordably (or
for free) take it to?
It sure would make it easier for you.

Well, yeah, I have moved all brushes that never came with gimp into an entirely 
diff. folder, so... I mean, what do you think? Would it work if, say, I 
uninstalled GIMP entirely, waited about a month or two (I can cope) and then

It looks like your problem is something wrong with MS Vista more
than with the GIMP.  I made a remark to the effect that the "right"
way to fix that is to install "an operating system that works" and
Ubuntu is an example of that.  The Cinnamon version of Mint is more
so, lately.  Both are free to download and install.

Reinstalling the previous version of the GIMP really should have
worked, and since it did not, this tends to rule out a bug in the
newer version as the source of the problem.  This looks like the
operating system, not the GIMP that's causing the problem.

There are too many tings that could be going wrong, for us to make
any more useful suggestions about how to get the GIMP running on
your system.

There is no reason to believe that the next version of the GIMP will
work for you, until the computer itself has been repaired.

Fixes that involve installing an operating system are normal for
some of us, but if you don't have the experience to do that it's not
a practical answer.  Since you seem to really need an image editor,
the best thing I can suggest at this point is to start looking for
an honest repair shop.

You should move any brushes that didn't come with GIMP itself.
If you've done this already, did anything change?

Note that blindly (re-)installing any version of GIMP won't solve the 
problem if anything you have added is causing this.

 The first thing a registry cleaner does - if it's a decent one like
 the Wise cleaner - is back up the existing registry files to a
 location where they won't be overwritten during the OS-native
 registry backup rotation.  Then it conducts a scan and removes
 orphaned keys that point to non-existent files and directories,
 redundant keys, etc.  In some cases, I have seen processes that
 access the registry frequently, i.e. complex application start-up
 routines - run 2x faster after cleaning.  Usually the result is not
 quite that impressive.

 In a hypothetical worst case where damage is done by the cleaning
 process - something I have never seen happen in a few hundred
 practical cases - the saved registry can be restored with a single
 command and, in effect, "nothing happened at all."  Any problems
 that need repair are the same ones that were there before the
 registry cleaner was tried.

 Progressive registry bloat is a feature, not a bug.  It makes a
 computer with a Microsoft operating system appear to be "getting old
 and slowing down," which is a Good Thing if you are selling
 computers or operating systems.  Not so good if you are the user who
 owns the machine in question.

 The best repair for any Microsoft operating system is to replace it
 with an operating system that works, or, failing that, reinstall the
 one that came with the machine.  But sometimes that's not an option,
 alas.

Mint is very pleasant and refreshing indeed, and I'll shift to it if
combining Ubuntu 12.10 with Gnome 2 is impossible.


I run Ubuntu 11.04 which came with Unity but I was able to remove all Unity 
packages and install Gnome 2. The one bug I found in Gnome 2 was the 
inability to do session snapshots.


I have looked at Mint and tried a live CD of it. I would like to do a test 
install in to a spare partition but the installer won't let me choose an 
option to *not* install a boot loader. I'm happy with the boot loader I have 
and 3 lines added to a config file would let me add Mint to my list of boot 
options. At least Mint 13 now recognizes the RAID 1 configuration of my hard 
drives.


The other option I'm considering is Debian. I haven't checked to see if 
there is a live CD of it that I can use to some initial testing.

Wow, thanks to both (all) of you!
I'll have to taste the mint, so to speak.
I was running Ubuntu 11 till my latest machinicide.
I thought though when I installed it that Linux has come
incredibly far in ease of use since when I used to use it
back in the old Red Hat 4, 7 etc command line startup days.
Of course, I just did it with an ubuntu cd I bought off of ebay for 4 bucks.
So no size worries for me.
But I did notice when I was searching that error above, or different
combinations of its terms included, that it seemed cross-OS, that
different #s (gmem.c: 165, 135, etc)  of it occurred in various linux
and windows versions that people had reported bugs or complained of.
Except for, notably, on Macs. Don't know fer sure about that though.
On second search through it seemed a lot had to do with corrupted
or unmanageably large conversion files etc. crashing memory.
This is a very similar error:

The only problem, in my opinion, is that Ubuntu still insists on fitting on
a CD instead of a DVD, for reasons I don't know.

Ubuntu 10 has worked great for me but alas, Canonical has gone the
way of the "dedicated touchscreen interface".  I will be bailing out
when the version I am using reaches "end of life" next year.  Can't
sit a very computer illiterate user in front of the "Unity" desktop,
and expect them to figure it out and use it without problems.  Can't
expect me to toss 20 years of reasonably efficient workflow habits
out the window either...

I have been very impressed with Mint - the other day I had occasion
to use the Live DVD in conjunction with a printer/scanner on a
random PC on a random office LAN, and the thing "just worked" all
around.

Running an OS that works for not against the user is a very
addictive thing.  Token on-topic reference:  The GIMP was the first
major gateway drug that started me down the path to a 100% Free
Software world.  Ubuntu stopped including the GIMP in its default
installation package, and that's another strike against Canonical...
sure it's stupidly easy to install, but dang it, GNU/Linux is
supposed to include the GIMP right out of the box, is all!

Because (left out) a Vista machine means it's probably about
five years old or so, meaning that it could possibly be filled, and
or replace the drive as well. It's gonna go sometime soon. Just thoughts.
And they're so cheap now.

I really have grown fond of avg's pc tuneup.
Normally I in the past didn't use such utilities, but I
tried (and paid!) for it once, and love it. Still use the
free avg antivirus though.
I would have recommended to upgrade to Win 7 and

Seemed like only a little better than that old Longhorn

But I would also just take at least a glance at the drive to

The first thing a registry cleaner does - if it's a decent one like
the Wise cleaner - is back up the existing registry files to a
location where they won't be overwritten during the OS-native
registry backup rotation.  Then it conducts a scan and removes
orphaned keys that point to non-existent files and directories,
redundant keys, etc.  In some cases, I have seen processes that
access the registry frequently, i.e. complex application start-up
routines - run 2x faster after cleaning.  Usually the result is not
quite that impressive.

In a hypothetical worst case where damage is done by the cleaning
process - something I have never seen happen in a few hundred
practical cases - the saved registry can be restored with a single
command and, in effect, "nothing happened at all."  Any problems
that need repair are the same ones that were there before the
registry cleaner was tried.

Progressive registry bloat is a feature, not a bug.  It makes a
computer with a Microsoft operating system appear to be "getting old
and slowing down," which is a Good Thing if you are selling
computers or operating systems.  Not so good if you are the user who
owns the machine in question.

The best repair for any Microsoft operating system is to replace it
with an operating system that works, or, failing that, reinstall the
one that came with the machine.  But sometimes that's not an option,
alas.
