I went to File - Export to Application but I have no idea what command to enter to have Gimp load with file (tif). Any assistance would be much appreciated.
I’m only using Gimp layers to be able to add a border around my photos to match instagram’s ratios. Also using Gimp for background replacement.
When you click on Export to Application, the pop-up screen you get asks you where to export to … and provides a “Browse” button to allow you to go hunting for the target application.
To find (something like) Gimp.exe try looking in C:\Program Files or C:\Program Files(x86)
I entered C:\Users\aiden\AppData\Local\Programs\GIMP 2\bin\gimp-2.10.exe in Export to and it then displays the program name. Export to appliction does not work
The program is in c:\program files\gimp2\bin\gimp-2.10.exe in my case. Not under users…
If you’ve a shortcut to gimp, stand on it with the mouse, right click, properties. There the adress is shown.
Ok sort of found the problem. Background I keep my files and the dxo database on an external drive created by another computer. I usually launch DXO Photolab as administrator to be able to write files.
For some reason gimp now loads but hangs trying to access file. If I use local files everything works ok and gimp loads the file direct from dxo (no need to run as administror).
Now I just have to figure out how to make external drive accessible like a local drive.
