Gimp 2.10 #152

The latest edition of Gimp doesnt have the settings directory as your documentation described.

LithiumProductions commented 4 years ago

The path is now C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins You may have to turn on "show hidden files, folders and drives" in Windows settings (if that's what you use.)

Unfortunatly in Linux it doesn't work. I have created a .gimp-2.10/plug-ins but it to no avail. Any hints?

ArturM commented 4 years ago

For GIMP 2.10 it is: ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins

faridosc commented 4 years ago

For GIMP 2.10 it is: ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins

doesn't work....

on Ubuntu 20.04 gimp 2.10 plugin not working... any hint

no-trick-pony commented 4 years ago

For Windows 10 I had to reinstall Gimp 2.10. I put the Python plugin into the AppData\.. folder listed under Preferences --> Folders --> Plug-ins (for Windows C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\GIMP\2.10\plug-ins). For Linux you can check that Setting too in Gimp to find out where to save the plugin. But even after a few restarts Gimp did not load the plug-in. I uninstalled Gimp 2.10, installed 2.8, installed the plugin there and it worked. After uninstalling Gimp 2.8 and reinstalling Gimp 2.10, the plugin suddenly showed up in Gimp 2.10 (it was still in the folder). So something about Gimp's plugin detection seems to be buggy in 2.10.

I tested the plugin and can confirm it is fully working in 2.10 once you get Gimp to recognize it.

Hi, I wrote this set of instructions which solved any issues for me on Ubuntu:

  1. Open GIMP
  2. Go to Edit > Preferences > Folders > Plug-ins
  3. a) Either copy the coatools_exporter.py script to one of the plug-ins folder

Note: /usr/lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins doesn't work for me, but any other folder does.

OR

  1. b) Add a new folder in which the coatools_exporter.py script can be found.

  2. WARNING: Do check if the coatools_exporter.py script is set as an executable.

This can be easily done on a terminal by typing: ls

on the folder containing this script.

If the script name is shown in a green color, you are safe.

If not, you should run on this same terminal: chmod +x coatools_exporter.py

  1. Reset GIMP. Export to Coatools... should now be shown under File.

I tried what @marceloqla did, but I don't see Export to coatools under File.

In recent versions of Ubuntu, they have dropped completely support for Python 2.x because it's no longer maintained and can have vulnerabilities. Gimp 2.10 doesn't support python3 yet (even though they knew Python 2 was deprecated and would go away since several years ago), so it's not possible to install this plugin (or any other python-based plugin) anymore on Ubuntu.

The only workaround if you are adventurous is to manually install the gimp-python package and its dependencies from Debian. See instructions in a comment here. I did it and it works, but I had to manually download and install 6 packages.
