Add bevel invokes bumpmap plugin, I think that's the problem.
GT Bevel was fixed with the old bumpmap plug-in, you could if that fixes it.
Can't try myself because I have 2.10.12 on Windows.

Thank you for the info. The Bumpmap plugin provided by rich2005 didn't make any difference, but on the other hand, the Bevel and Emboss in Layerfx.py is working now. Thank you rich2005.

I'm having the exact same problem. I select the item, and then try to "Add Bevel", but while it goes through the motions of adding a bevel, nothing happens. No bevel. I've tried it with a work-on copy and without a work-on copy, and also with and without the keep-bump-layer. If I check off both boxes at once, I get the following error message.

******
GIMP MESSAGE
Calling error for procedure 'plug-in-bump-map':

Hi Anna_esq,
looks you're trying to use the filter on a group of layers which doesn't work. Use it on single layers only.
Nevertheless there is a bug in 2.10.14 with the add-bevel filter which will (hopefully) be resolved in 2.10.16

Gretchen's Glass or Plastic scripts no longer work either with Gimp 2.10.14. For these reasons I'm back to using Gimp 2.10.12 and hope they fix it in 2.10.16 when it comes out. If not, I'll likely stick with 2.10.12 fore the foreseeable future.
