Hi All,

I am really puzzled by the different installers now available for GIMP.

Surely this not an installer issue but one of where GIMP expects to find the plugins?

GIMP itself is offering the Flatpack install, Ubuntu seems to favour a Snap install. (I am running Ubuntu 20.04LTS) I have tried to install a Python plugin to GIMP to export multiple layers as a batch.
Instructions here:

https://khalim19.github.io/gimp-plugin-export-layers/sections/Installation.html#linux

The instructions suggest looking in your home directory for the plugins folder. If you can't find it then check GIMP's settings as in Edit - preferences - folders.

Hi Nic,

The python files are in /home/alg/snap/gimp/347/.config/GIMP/2,10/plugins as they should be but I do not see anything different, there is no indication that the plugin is active, and I also do not know what to expect from a plugin to GIMP.

To describe my situation, I have had a website dor some time but control has redided with the designer. Recently I requested help to update my site with fresh images, I found that the files previously installed were too slow to open, and the suggestion was made to resize them for web, at a res of 72dpi. I don't know how to achieve that in Darktable but I knew that GIMP would allow resizing at 72 dpi. But I have a lot to do so I wanted to run a batch process, and the python script seemed to provide an option. But it is a bumpy ride at present.

Andrew
