When I apply an Output Profile in UFRaw and send to GIMP, GIMP asks me
whether to keep the embedded profile or convert to sRGB, so I do know
that it's noticing a profile there. You can set GIMP to ask on the
bottom drop-down of that menu.

[Gimp-user] .GIF timing issue

To gimp-user list recipients, 

I've run into a problem where I cant edit the delay between frames for my .GIF file. Im looking to set it it 41ms for each frame, which Ive done when prompted as I save my file, but the playback speed seems to stay at 100ms delay when I open the finished .GIF. 

Is it possible Gimp has trouble applying the delay to a high amount of frames? Im used alot of layers, 280 to be exact. The images/layers are from a video I previously converted to PNGs.

Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Adrian Brisland.

[Gimp-user] The saga of GIMP and PNGs with transparency

I started this general topic in another thread, but everything I was told there is working. I have a new issue with the steps suggested: 


When I have an image open in the native GIMP format, and highlight the white margin borders (w/magic wand) around the content, and change it to an alpha channel, which coverts it to the classic "checkerboard" that indicates transparency, then export a PNG .... any subsequent PNG-to-SWF conversion (tested five brands of software) results in that transparent area turning completely black. What am I doing wrong?

Using proprietary formats such as Flash/swf? :-)

Make sure your image is in RGB mode, not indexed.

may or may not help.

Re: [Gimp-user] .GIF timing issue

I have occasionally had problems renaming layers -- I type the new name in but the changes do not "stick" when I switch focus away.  This could be related behavior given that GIMP manages a GIF's timing and frame disposal as part of each layer name.

[Gimp-user] GIMP 2.7.x - How do I move the main tool palette? (single window mode)

I love single window mode in the new 2.7 series.  I currently have my
preferences such that the main tool palette is locked to the
upper-left side of the single window.

However, I can't move it.  I also can't figure out how to replicate
this on a new install (since by default the tool palette is on the
upper-right and can't be moved).

I'm guessing I missed a setting/preference somewhere.  How do I move
the main tool palette?  Thanks!

[Gimp-user] Windows 2000 Support?

While testing another issue, I found that GIMP 2.7.4 fails to load 
correctly on Windows 2000. http://www.gimp.org/windows/ says "GIMP 
should run on any NT-based version of Windows (NT4, 2000, XP or Vista)." 
Is that statement still correct, or has support for pre-XP been dropped?

No problem for me if Windows 2000 has been dropped since I only use it 
for trying things out, but can submit a bug report if it is still 
supposed to be supported.

Starting GIMP 2.7.4 on Windows 2000 Pro with SP4 applied (running under 
MS Virtual PC 2007 with Windows Vista 32-bit Business as the host OS) 
the following errors are produced during startup:
1. "The procedure entry point GetModuleHandleExA could not be located in 
the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll" (while the splash screen shows 
"Looking for data files - Modules")
2. "The procedure entry point getaddrinfo could not be located in the 
dynamic link library WS2_32.dll" (while the splash screen shows 
"Querying new Plug-ins - script-fu.exe")

MSDN indicates the above functions are not present on Windows 2000, 
although it looks like getaddrinfo can be emulated by including another 
header - 
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms738520(v=vs.85).aspx#support_for_getaddrinfo_on_windows_2000_and_older_versions

The UI is then displayed, but is unresponsive - the windows can't be 
moved, and don't even redraw after they've been covered. Being 
unresponsive, the only way to exit is to kill the process. Nothing is 
displayed in the "GIMP output" console window, except the initial 
message "This is a development version of GIMP.  Debug messages may 
appear here."

Thanks,
Mark.

This works for me: Turn off single-window mode, rearrange, turn on
again.

But maybe there's a method with even fewer steps?

That's something that should definitely be fixed - NT4 hasn't been
supported since GIMP 2.2 IIRC, and I think the last version that works on
2000 is somewhere around 2.6.7. Looks like you also found a bug in the 2.7
installer - I forgot to put the check for Windows XP SP3 in it - it
should've never allowed installing on Windows 2000.

I don't see any dialog at all.  The image just appears in the gimp image 
window.

It says the profile is "sRGB built-in, Default RGB working space"
but it displays with the profile applied in ufraw.

Edit/Preferences/Color Management shows no profile for RGB.

dangit.
Could be windoze related;
or something that creeped in between 2.7.4 and 2.7.5.
Anyone running 2.7.5 on any os who can confirm 2.7.5 behavior one way or 
the other?

Ugh.  Global .gimprc says
   #(color-profile-policy ask)
my .gimprc says
  (color-profile-policy convert)
which I don't believe I ever set, but I could be lying.

I now see, at bottom of preferences/color management, option to ask, 
keep, or discard (convert)

However...
I changed it to "keep",
exited,
my .gimprc now says keep
The image comes across with the profile, but image/properties still says 
sRGB default.
Change it to ask and the behavior is the same -- I still don't get a 
dialog, and it still says the profile is the default despite the 
original one being applied.

So... can anyone confirm 2.7.5 behavior on any os?

Gary
