GIMP save settings

Submitted by lemonydes on February 8, 2009 - 1:22pm

Hello,

I like very much GIMP portable and I am using it quiet often. I also install several plugins.

I have only one problem with GIMP portable. GIMP is not saving my usual settings. Every time when I close the GIMP and start it again all plugins are adjusted to "standart" setting.

How to force GIMP to save settings during quitting?

thanks in advanced

where takes gimp fonts?

Submitted by ottosykora on December 18, 2008 - 3:49am

I have some problem with the gimp portable. I wanted work on some picture and add some little bit special font. This font I have previously installed on the host PC, normal apps like winword etc offered it for use.

Only gimp portable could not find the particular font. Furthermore I have noticed it offers only part of the fonts installed on the host machine.

Where does the gimp portable loads the fonts it is using from? Is there any restriction on what fonts it is using?

GIMP: Beginner: Can this be saved strait on a CD and used ?

Submitted by dogdog on December 15, 2008 - 10:12pm

I'm a little confused on this. Can this be saved strait on a CD and used ?

My issue is I'm ever leary anymore about saving (installing) programs if I don't need them. I wanted to try GIMP to see if it had the functions that I'm after. I've installed two other freeware image programs and they don't do what I want.

Do I have to actually install this thing on my computer? Can I just down load the file - save the file in my documents - burn it on a CD and use it?

Thanks

occasionally can't paint in GIMP

Submitted by Pseudopizza on December 13, 2008 - 4:55am

It happens 50% of the time now - I can create a new document, but I cant paint.

Just trying to zero in on the problem as it is annoying in it's unpredictability.

Layers are unlocked, all Preferences/Folders are set to "writable".
I'm running the app from my local disc, root directory.
I notice the whole GIMPportable folder is set to read only, and when I untick the option, it usually changes back.

For the last 10mins, I have been going over these areas of the software to identify the problem, have re-installed latest version, and have been stuck.

GIMP Font issue

Submitted by jsroot on December 6, 2008 - 3:49pm

Hi all,

First off thanks for the awesome software. I can't live without it.

I am having a problem with GIMP Portable 2.6 on Vista. I must have at some time used a font that I no longer have. When I click on the Font tool on the toolbox an error pops up:

"Pango-ERROR **:Unable to open font file C:/Windows/fonts/DejaVuSans.ttf for font DejaVu Sans 16, exiting

aborting..."

I checked and the font is not in the directory.
