“Gimp is good but i miss the heal patch” …not really.

Resynthesize is a heal selection plugin you can add to Gimp. With many software store manager like the one from Linux Mint all you have to do is simply to add the additional components in the software page

Otherwise you can download it from github and add it to your plugin folder following this guide

https://github.com/bootchk/resynthesizer

once installed you can find it in Filters> Enhance > Heal section

    Unless this has been fixed in newer versions, it should be pointed out that ReSynthesizer relies on an older version of Python that most distrobutions don’t have anymore, so unless your using the flatpak, which has all of those dependencies still built in, it won’t work.

        Not sure. I’d assume its the same as the flatpak with a bit more work involved in deconstructing the apk file, adding the plugin to the proper folder and then recompiling.

    I installed it like and hour ago (prior to seeing your message), will try it out soon. Never gave a proper run to Gimp. Insalled on Bazzite, had a downloadable extension section with it and all. I frigging love Bazzite. Thanks for the reminder: D

    Gentoo also has it in the repos. Really cool tool. I don’t do much image editing these days, but recently used it to extend a background (mostly a simple pattern) for a wallpaper.

    Would be nice to see a plugin where you can resize to small and back to large and have it no pixelate

    Thanks! Always good to hear about useful Linux software, I didn’t use it a lot in Photoshop but still nice to have. I had so many go-to places to learn about new Windows software now gotta find the same for Linux.
