So, I downloaded all the past PortableApps releases (from GitHub) for GIMP 2.10.#, and tested each with the plug-in. I performed some tests on past versions in the hope that you have the time and are willing to troubleshoot why the latest version doesn’t work with the Resynthesizer v1.0 plug-in. After reading some of the other forum posts regarding GIMP and Python support, it looked like some previous versions may have had it working. Looks like I have too much time on my hands.
Running a new install of PortableApps Platform, with just GIMP loaded, from the DESKTOP. Hopefully that helps, as I'm flying blind here. (From everything I have read, this is the right place to put them, and one part of Resynth works, just not these additional scripts)Īlso, searching the forum for clues, it looks like you may have had this issue on an earlier version:
(C:\Users\Amiga2\Desktop\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\App\gimp\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins\python-console\python-console.py)įailed to execute child process (No such file or directory)Ĭould this be related to why GIMP doesn't "see" any of those new Python scripts (*.py files) I have placed in:Ĭ:\Users\Amiga2\Desktop\PortableApps\GIMPPortable\Data\.gimp\plug-ins Unable to run plug-in "python-consloe.py" I have the same issue as he trying to bring up the Python Console (Python-Fu), and get the same error as he did:įailed to run plug-in "python-console.py" However, I do believe the problem of missing menu items (from Resynth 1.0) may be related to the Python problem mmjoshi posted about on 8 April: Hi John, and thanks so much for your quick reply, and the AMAZING effort you put into PortableApps!Īlso, please excuse my ignorance, as I have little if any programming experience, and really am stabbing in the dark troubleshooting this issue.
Thanks so much, especially for such a great thing as Portable Apps!!! This tool (Heal Selection) is AMAZING in its ability to automatically remove selected portions of an image and blend the resulting void in with the background.Ĭan anyone please help me troubleshoot why these *.py additional features of Resynthesizer's plug-in do not work with GIMP Portable? (as well as the other filters I have yet to try) That version of GIMP, running from the Sandbox, has many additional Filters, including the missing FILTERS/ENHANCE/HEAL SELECTION which is NOT present in GIMP Portable.
In GIMP Portable, I installed all the appropriate *.py files and the two executables in Desktop\GIMPPortable\Data\.gimp\plug-ins folder, but again, only the single Resynthesize option is available after doing this.Īs an additional test, I downloaded GIMP 2.10.18 (normal full version from the GIMP site, not the PortableApps version) and installed it using Windows Sandbox, then like above, placed the same plug-in files for Resynthesizer in:Ĭ:\Program Files\GIMP 2\lib\gimp\2.0\plug-ins folder. In GIMP Portable, this additional filter does not show up (along with several others). The YouTube tutorial shows a much more effective tool, Heal Selection, which should show up under FILTERS/ENHANCE. This newer version has additional options and features that (to me) seem to be a great improvement.īut, in GIMP Portable, the only new filter option is Resynthesize, found under FILTERS/MAP. I think this plug-in is newer than Resynthesize 0.13b, which I have used in the past. Using the latest version of GIMP Portable, installed to the Desktop, I have tried to install the newer (I think) GIMP Resynthesizer plugin referenced in the Resynthesizer YouTube tutorial at:
