Contours - Extract Foreground (interactive)

I get this error

Quote:

***Error in ./fx_extract_foreground/*repeat/*local/(...)/drgba/ _display_rgba/*repeat/*local/*** Item substitution '{1,n}': Invalid selection [1] (not in range -1...0).

Happens after opening the gmic dialogue then OK or Apply. screenshot http://i.imgur.com/0pG8Oih.png

Can anyone duplicate that?

An older 1.7.9pre works ok.

What happens when you remove transparency (Remove Alpha Channel) from original layer?

I had a problem wit G'MIC Curves (Colors>Curves). When I removed Alpha Channel, it worked.

But this is not as is it supposed to work.

Thanks to all, not just my installation, so I posted a comment on the g'mic site.

Confirmed on pre-version 2.0.0.
I've tried a quick fix, could you please update your filters and tell me if that is working now ?
Thanks !

(I'm still on vacations in Creete this week, so not a lot of time to hack on G'MIC

).

Yes, that is working on updating the filters, both gmic_gimp_gtk and qt.

Best advice, forget gmic and enjoy the rest of your holiday

. Very envious, I see the temperature in Crete is a nice 19°C

I won't lie, I do enjoy my stay in Crete very much

It's a beautiful island and we are lucky enough with the weather these days.

Thank you David. Curves-filter is also working again.

Enjoy your holidays.
