I am running Mac OS X 10.8.3, Gimp 2.8.4 and Python 2.6.5
I remember using Slice in the past, but I can't remember if it was before upgrading to Gimp 2.8. Now, there are only 2 items (Image Map and Semi-Flatten) under the Filters/Web menu. Slice isn't there.
I'm trying to slice an image using the filter-web-slice function but I was wondering if there is a way to customize the function or change its properties in the Python-Fu. I need gimp to slice by columns (start in the top left corner slice each grid down the column then proceed to the next column. Right now all I can get gimp to do is cut by rows. Normally gimps function would be fine but I need the image labeled a particular way so I can use the individual files in a map for a game. I'm making a 118 images so renaming them by hand would take too long.
My decor filter has disappeared from the filters menu. Was using it yesterday, no problem. Today, it's just gone. I have uninstalled Gimp and reinstalled it several times and that does not work.
The version I am using is 2.8.4 and I have a PC with Windows 7. I have been using the program for the last two months with no problems and the more I use the more I like it.
Just to add the issue, I installed Gimp 2.8.4 on my wife's computer, and the filter is there.
In older versions of Photoshop there was a very beautiful filter - low pass. It could make blurry effect to picture. I liked so much to use it on my nature photos.
It was situated in Filters --> Sharpen (if i don`t mistake)
Where is it now? Why it`s not present in new versions of Photoshop (CS and CS2 don`t have it)?
Unable to see the lines of the Graduated filter tool or the outlne and handles of the new Radial filter tool. They were visible when I first installed Lr5 and used them on several photos
I would like to slice a widescreen wallpaper into 3 smaller wallpapers for use on a cell phone.
The original is 1680 wide by 1050 high. I would like to trim it to 960 high and then slice into 3 pieces that are each 540 wide for use on a cell phone. Is it possible to do this with gimp?
GIMP has disappeared (uninstalled itself or by other outside entity) from my Apple Mac. I haven't noticed the exact date, but it happened at about the same time when Apple disconnected JAVA applications.
Got a problem here with the map to object filter, or maybe it's just a case of it can't do what I want it to. I thought it best to ask here to find out for sure.

The circle at the top and in the foreground is the one that I want to map to a cylinder, but no matter what I do I can't seem to get ride of the other two circles, the one at the bottom and the one in the background. I can erase them after the mapping's finished but I was hoping to find a way to prevent them appear in the first place.
Having a problem in Gimp 2.6.11 on Windows 7 x64 system. You can watch the video, linked below, but the basics are: I do a selection, scale the selection, make a new layer out of the floating selection result. I try to run a RGB Noise filter on the new layer and no preview shows in the filter dialog or it doesn't show correctly. If I anchor the floating selection into the original layer, instead of making a new layer out of it, the preview shows correctly. Is this a bug... or?
I want to write a Java program that mimics the plasma filter. However, my first few (as in 30-40) attempts have not been very successful. If GIMP provides algorithms or source code for the filters anywhere?
I'm learning how to write script-fu scripts. I've managed to resize an image, but I would like to use a filter from within the script-fu script, applying it to the image after it's been resized. More specifically, I'd like to run the Filters->Generic->Dilate filter on the image, before saving it. I've searched on Google for how to do this, but I can't find any references to using filters from within a script.
Searched three fora: this, General, and <I forget>. I looked for a Developer thread thinking this might already be a requested feature, but did not find one.
When I have a filter window open, most often there is a "preview" window--of fixed size--which I can pan, but not so far not figure out how to zoom to see detail.
I wish I may I wish I might: - be able to resize the "preview" window - be able to zoom in to see the effects of the filter better
So, yesterday I was trying to halftone an image. Everything was working fine, but I couldn't figure out how to use it the way I wanted to. So I found a tutorial. I read it, figured out what I was doing wrong, went on my way. Everything seemed fine.
Then I went to use my newfound knowledge, and lo and behold, the Newsprint filter stopped working. No matter what I tried, the preview image looked just like the original. And when I tried applying the filter anyway, figuring maybe something was just up with the preview panel, nothing happened. The filter pauses to load when I change something, acting like it's working, but nothing happens. The closest thing I've been able to get was the image completely disappearing when I change a certain setting (switch to luminosity, in case you were wondering). I tried googling my problem, but all that gets me is tutorials and the how-to-use guide.
I want to make a basic color filter over my image that, for instance, filters out every color that isn't red. so everything that was red would show up as normal and everything that was blue or green would show up as black.
I'd like to know how to apply a "filter" to a bunch of images. By "filter" i mean a grid for sharing image in equals parts. How to be able to locate elements in a image. And to "apply" this grid to all the images of a directory even by script-fu if necessary.
Is there a stock filter or one that can be added to GIMP that sort of rounds the edges of sharp parts of an image?
I'm looking for a filter or effect that can round the sharp edges of a bitmap image of a font, to give it that 'Xerox Machine' effect where a sharp font looses it's sharp corners and gets a rounded effect from being copied over and over.
I already tried the 'Gaussian Blur' filter, but that just creates soft edges and not the rounded corners that I'm looking for. The effect that I'm looking for is not fuzzy or blurred, but is more of a 'rounded corners' effect... it can be seen in the attached image that is below.

I need to correct distortion from my 18-200 mm lens for my Nikon D80.
I can experiment with the controls until I get what looks reasonable,but it would be easier if I could find recommendations for settings of the lens distortion filter at different focal lengths for the lens.
I used to use a Panorama Tools plugin for gimp for which I found such recommendations, but I can't get that plugin to work with recent versions of gimp.
Of course I can experiment by photographing a grid at different focal lengths and different subject distances and using trial and error, and create my own tables.
Finally, where can I find a description of the the algorithm that the filter uses. If I had that, it might simplify things. Usually these algorithms apply a polynomial (usually cubic) correction based on the radial distance from the center of the image. The parameters set the coefficients of the polynomial.
There used to be a pnorama tools plugin which allowed one to entercorrections for specific lenses which I was able to find on the web.That worked very well. But I haven't been able to find that plugin forrecent versions of gimp.
There is a lens distortion filter, but you have to use it by trial anderror. I haven't found any specific recommendations to use forspecific lenses anywhere. And in some cases, nothing I try works. Iattach an example below. It was taken, I believe with a Nikon 18-55 mmlens at 18 mm. You will notice that there is no distortion at thesides but significant barrel distortion as you move in from the sides.No combination of major and edge correction that I've tried does anygood.
P.S. I understand that ahd I shot raw with my Nikon, I might havebeen able to do the correction more easily using ufraw. Also, it mightbe possible using hugin to correct the distortion. But I would like tobe able to do it with gimp if I can.
My problem is it's in its own menu under Filters and I would prefer to have it under Light and Shadow. So I open the script using Wordpad like I've done many times before with similar scripts and go to edit the menu path. I make the change, save it, and refreshed the scripts and I get the error "eval: unbound variable:" I tried changing it back and I got it again.
Here is the code, again the only line I've changed is

I'm in the process of making a command map for the free video game Wolfenstein Enemy Territory.
The games allows to generate a TGA file called Tracemap, which is used by the game to detect which places are outside or inside, for precipitations and artillery. It is commonly used as a base to make command maps, such as:
Other examples:

To obtain a comparable result, I have decomposed the making in 4 steps (4 layers): - The terrain (background); - The buildings (in shade of grey); - The roads (a tool drawing white lines bordered with black and doing the junctions automatically would be neat, if it ever exists...?); - The "foldings" (that's the Reverso translation, I think it can be guessed from the pic).
So, I exported the terrain in a separated map, compiled it, generated a Tracemap, and I have it in GIMP now. I would like GIMP to detect and do some lines between the different levels like Paint Shop Pro seems to do:
[URL]........
This way, I can draw the height lines accurately, and then color (I already made the palette with required colors); Does this exist in GIMP? Tried few filters but never came close to something like in the Warchest forums.
I tried to use the lens flare filter in Photoshop CS6.While the lighting effect is interesting, it introduces ugly artifacts like blue or orange blobs (which are supposed to be the reflection of the diaphragm, but do not look anywhere close to that, but instead are just cheesy looking blobs of color).
In the "movie prime" setting blue lines are added which have nothing to do with lens flar.On top of it, the preview is about the size of a stamp. Any way to use the filter without getting these artifacts, or is it - what I assume - just a useless toy filter, that has probably been dragged on for years and years because it's always been there? What do you use to create a lens flare effect? Are you just building it from scratch with brush work?
As a new user I really prefer the single window mode but have a real problem in that every time I open a filter the window/box that open opens up underneath the single window and I cant see it without minimising the main gimp window. I've played with the preferences windows management options and seem to have all the file options curves etc on top now (these were opening under the single window at one point) but nothing I do seems to want to make the filter boxes open where I can see them - It's making GIMP quite unpleasant to use.
