How to use this in Gimp 2.10 on a Linux Machine ?

i cant find any documentation on how to use this plugin on Gimp.

Cyan 1.2 will install/update it's plugin against Gimp when you run it. So just run it (Cyan) once and Cyan will install (or update) the plugin against Gimp.

i installed cyan and put that in /usr/local/bin. but i cant see cyan option in gimp. im using fedora 30

see, Cyan is working in background. there is no option in Gimp.

That's odd. I only have Gimp 2.8 on this computer (and it works), will test on another computer.

I just downloaded Gimp 2.10.12 AppImage and the Cyan plugin is detected.

gimp210-cyan121

You could try to close Gimp and Cyan and remove the Cyan plugin:

rm ~/.gimp*/plug-ins/cyan.py

Now run Cyan and close it.

Verify that the plugin exists:

ls ~/.gimp*/plug-ins/cyan.py

Now run Gimp.

first of all i dont have a .gimp directory. plugins located at ~/.config/GIMP/2.10/plug-ins directory. there is no cyan.py i got an executable file with thirdparty libraries. no py module in it.

tried both in version 1.2 and 1.2.1, same result

Cyan creates the plugin when needed. Since Gimp on Linux changed the config location you will need to do a workaround ....

Create the folder ~/.gimp-2.10 and start Cyan. Cyan will create a plugin in that folder. Copy/move it to where you want.

I will do a release (1.2.2) to fix the Linux issue within Monday.

okey. Thank You

Should fix the GIMP issue, please re-open if that is not the case.
