GIMP: Hah Well Just an Idea I had multiple images open, and it crashed. It would be nice to have an option to reopen all of them...

Is there anyway to have image windows open under the main GIMP interface window, instead of their own windows?

Is there anyway to have image windows open under the main GIMP interface window, instead of their own windows? Just like any other Windows application.

I've searched Google; and asked around on the IRC but no one has a clue.

[Fixed] gimp 2.8.6: jpg-precalculation of file-size

Hello portable-apps-team!

The latest version of GIMP, 2.8.6 ref-2, still shows the bug of the
"jpg-precalculation of file-size".

If you save an image as "jpg" a window pops up - and you are
asked what quality you want to have. In this window you can
check "precalculate jpg-file size". But this precalculation still
doesn't work. You always get a constant value "5.9 EB".

The precalculation-size is very helpful if you work on pictures
which had to be small. So if you send pics via e-mail or
you work on websites etc. you need the precalculation of jpg-

Latest GIMP Update Error

Hey all,

This has been going on for quite a while now. At some point a new version was released, and ever since GIMP will not update (all other portable apps will though.

First off: Plenty of space available on the USB stick (Sandisk Extreme 3.0 16GB, 6GB free)

When going to update GIMP Portable the file starts downloading as expected, but then stops at 61,968kb of 61,972kb. it stops for an extended period of time, and then fails with the current error message:

Download Error: File Open error on file

Python Fu not loading in Gimp 2.8.4

Submitted by MoDei on July 17, 2013 - 2:16am

I am running Windows 8 64 bit with Gimp 2.8.4 on a USB drive but I am not using the PortableApp Suite/launcher but rather just straight from the Gimp folder in the root. I have been unable to get any .py to work in the portable gimp versions from 2.8.2 to 2.8.4 (all revisions). I saw a note on other people having the problem in 2.8.2 - resolved in 2.8.2 rev 2 (but not for me). Same post described a launcher.ini with reference to python so I had a check (with notepad) and that file and the file which came with the newer 2.8.4 looks fine.
