Hi,
I run the latest version of RT on Windows 10. I cannot open Gimp ( 2.8.9 and Gimp 2.9.3 )from within RT. I have specified the appropriate program folder within the panel in preferences but still get the error message cannot start external editor.
I have also tried pionting the program to Adobe Photoshop with the same result. Can anyone help me please?.
Cheers Ian.
Can you please check if, in the main program folder, besides rawtherapee.exe there are also 2 executables named gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe and gspawn-win64-helper.exe?
Also, please let me know where you grabbed your RT build, and which build (version) it is.
Hi Sebastien,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes I have both gspawn-win64-helper-console.exe and gspawn-win64-helper.exe files.
My RT version is: 4.2.699
Cheers,
Ian.
@Ian_Knight thanks for reporting this, I opened an issue at github.
@Ian_Knight I think I found why it didn’t work: the path to Gimp should be set in the preferences to the main Gimp folder “C:\Program Files\Gimp 2”. I guess you set it to the binary folder “C:\Program Files\Gimp 2\bin” which is not correct.
