GIMP Version: 2.8.14
Operating System: Windows
OS Version: Windows 8.1
GIMP Experience: Basic Level

List any relevant plug-ins or scripts:
Sample Gradient Along a Path



This is one of my favourite scripts, which normally processes the image/defined path then presents a 'user form' in which name of gradient and name of file can be entered as desired.

Today I received no forms in which to enter my preferred names; the script appears to process then ends, just disappears from the screen. There were no error messages. What I did find though, when I checked file explorer, were 10 new gradient files - 'sample gradient' through 'sample gradient #9'.

I tried deleting then re-downloading the script, then applied it again, but no difference; new gradients were still created but no user form was displayed.

Any ideas and I am quite happy to accept that I am missing something obvious :oops:

For me, the dialog always appears behind GIMP. Maybe check the taskbar to see if the form is there?

Are you using the gradient context menu?
Is the path active?
It works as expected for me 2.8.14.

Just to confirm what Tux said; when I add a new path and run the plug-in the dialog takes focus, when I reuse a path and run the plug-in the dialog does not always take focus. The dialog opens either way.

Oh dear me ... seniors moment obviously; its all OK and yes I am embarrassed; somewhere in my mind I expected the form to appear for file naming purposes after the event ... but it is there right at the start for that purpose ... oh dear, oh dear just one day in hospital and I must have left my brain there.

Thanks Odinbc/GnuTux for such prompt responses ... now I can continue to grow old gracefully!

I know I have the script and it is installed, I just can't seem to find it anywhere.

Right-click on any gradient in the Gradients dialog.
If it's not there check in the Plug-in Browser.
