NAME

       gimprc - gimp configuration file

DESCRIPTION

       The  gimprc  file  is  a  configuration file read by GIMP when it starts up.  There are two of these: one
       system-wide one stored in /etc/gimp/2.0/gimprc and a per-user $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/GIMP/2.10/gimprc which may
       override system settings.

       Comments  are  introduced  by  a  hash sign (#), and continue until the end of the line.  Blank lines are
       ignored.

       The gimprc file associates values with properties.  These properties may be set by lisp-like  assignments
       of the form:

              (property-name value)

       where:

       property-name
                 is one of the property names described below.

       value     is the value the property is to be set to.

       Either spaces or tabs may be used to separate the name from the value.

PROPERTIES

       Valid properties and their default values are:

       (temp-path "${gimp_temp_dir}")

              Sets  the  folder for temporary storage. Files will appear here during the course of running GIMP.
              Most files will disappear when GIMP exits, but some files are likely to remain, so it is  best  if
              this folder not be one that is shared by other users.  This is a single folder.

       (swap-path "${gimp_cache_dir}")

              Sets  the  swap  file location. GIMP uses a tile based memory allocation scheme.  The swap file is
              used to quickly and easily swap tiles out to disk and back in. Be aware that  the  swap  file  can
              easily get very large if GIMP is used with large images. Also, things can get horribly slow if the
              swap file is created on a folder that is mounted over NFS.  For these reasons, it may be desirable
              to put your swap file in "/tmp".  This is a single folder.

       (swap-compression "fast")

              The compression method used for tile data stored in the swap file.  This is a string value.

       (num-processors 1)

              Sets how many threads GIMP should use for operations that support it.  This is an integer value.

       (tile-cache-size 2g)

              When  the amount of pixel data exceeds this limit, GIMP will start to swap tiles to disk.  This is
              a lot slower but it makes it possible to work on images that wouldn't fit into  memory  otherwise.
              If  you  have  a  lot  of  RAM,  you may want to set this to a higher value.  The integer size can
              contain a suffix of 'B', 'K', 'M' or 'G' which makes GIMP interpret the size as being specified in
              bytes,  kilobytes,  megabytes  or  gigabytes. If no suffix is specified the size defaults to being
              specified in kilobytes.

       (use-opencl no)

              When enabled, uses OpenCL for some operations.  Possible values are yes and no.

       Specifies the language to use for the user interface.  This is a string value.

       (interpolation-type cubic)

              Sets the level of interpolation used for scaling and other transformations.  Possible  values  are
              none, linear, cubic, nohalo and lohalo.

       (default-threshold 15)

              Tools  such as fuzzy-select and bucket fill find regions based on a seed-fill algorithm.  The seed
              fill starts at the initially selected pixel and progresses in all directions until the  difference
              of  pixel intensity from the original is greater than a specified threshold. This value represents
              the default threshold.  This is an integer value.

       (plug-in-path "${gimp_dir}/plug-ins:${gimp_plug_in_dir}/plug-ins")

              Sets the plug-in search path.  This is a colon-separated list of folders to search.

       (undo-levels 5)

              Sets the minimal number of operations that can be undone. More  undo  levels  are  kept  available
              until the undo-size limit is reached.  This is an integer value.

       (undo-size 1g)

              Sets  an  upper  limit  to the memory that is used per image to keep operations on the undo stack.
              Regardless of this setting, at least as many undo-levels as configured can be undone.  The integer
              size  can  contain  a  suffix of 'B', 'K', 'M' or 'G' which makes GIMP interpret the size as being
              specified in bytes, kilobytes, megabytes or gigabytes. If no suffix is specified the size defaults
              to being specified in kilobytes.

       (undo-preview-size large)

              Sets  the size of the previews in the Undo History.  Possible values are tiny, extra-small, small,

              value.

       (pluginrc-path "${gimp_dir}/pluginrc")

              Sets the pluginrc search path.  This is a single filename.

       (layer-previews yes)

              Sets  whether  GIMP  should  create  previews  of  layers and channels. Previews in the layers and
              channels dialog are nice to have but they can slow things down when  working  with  large  images.
              Possible values are yes and no.

       (group-layer-previews yes)

              Sets  whether GIMP should create previews of layer groups. Layer group previews are more expensive

       (layer-preview-size medium)

              Sets the preview size used for layers and channel previews in  newly  created  dialogs.   Possible
              values are tiny, extra-small, small, medium, large, extra-large, huge, enormous and gigantic.

       (thumbnail-size normal)

              Sets  the  size  of  the thumbnail shown in the Open dialog.  Possible values are none, normal and
              large.

              The thumbnail in the Open dialog will be automatically updated if  the  file  being  previewed  is
              smaller  than  the  size  set here.  The integer size can contain a suffix of 'B', 'K', 'M' or 'G'
              which makes GIMP interpret  the  size  as  being  specified  in  bytes,  kilobytes,  megabytes  or
              gigabytes. If no suffix is specified the size defaults to being specified in kilobytes.

       (color-management

       (quick-mask-color (color-rgba 1 0 0 0.5))

              Sets the default quick mask color.  The color is specified in the form (color-rgba red green  blue
              alpha) with channel values as floats in the range of 0.0 to 1.0.

       (import-promote-float no)

              Promote  imported  images to floating point precision. Does not apply to indexed images.  Possible

              Speed  of  marching  ants  in  the  selection  outline.   This value is in milliseconds (less time
              indicates faster marching).  This is an integer value.

       (resize-windows-on-zoom no)

              When enabled, the image window will automatically resize itself  when  zooming  into  and  out  of

PATH EXPANSION

       Strings of type PATH are expanded in a manner similar to bash(1).  Specifically: tilde (~) is expanded to
       the  user's  home  directory.  Note  that  the  bash  feature of being able to refer to other user's home
       directories by writing ~userid/ is not valid in this file.

       ${variable} is expanded to the current value of an environment variable.  There are a few variables  that
       are pre-defined:

       gimp_dir
              The  personal gimp directory which is set to the value of the environment variable GIMP2_DIRECTORY
              or to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/GIMP/2.10.

       gimp_data_dir
              Base for paths to shareable  data,  which  is  set  to  the  value  of  the  environment  variable
              GIMP2_DATADIR or to the compiled-in default value ${datarootdir}/gimp/2.0.

       gimp_plug_in_dir
              Base  to  paths  for  architecture-specific plug-ins and modules, which is set to the value of the
              environment variable GIMP2_PLUGINDIR or to the compiled-in default value /usr/lib/gimp/2.0.

       gimp_sysconf_dir
              Path  to  configuration  files,  which  is  set  to  the  value  of   the   environment   variable
              GIMP2_SYSCONFDIR or to the compiled-in default value /etc/gimp/2.0.

       gimp_cache_dir
              Path  to  cached files, which is set to the value of the environment variable GIMP2_CACHEDIR or to
              the system default for per-user cached files.

       gimp_temp_dir
              Path to temporary files, which is set to the value of the environment variable GIMP2_TEMPDIR or to
              the system default for temporary files.
