Someone should add text layer editing and styling functions to the PDB, so that the plug-in could make use of styling features in GIMP. The PSD parser in our PSD plugin is already aware of relevant blocks (see the plug-ins/file-psd/psd.h file). GIMP doesn't yet allow editing the contents of text layers in PSD files. Non-destructive editing is primary objective of v3.2. Please note, that since 2.10, GIMP has an API for attaching filters to layers, which is a foundation work for further development. GIMP doesn't yet support adjustment layers and layer effects, so it cannot directly read those from PSD or export those to PSD.Ī temporary workaround is available since v2.10.6: you can open PSD files saved with backwards compatibility, where non-destructive changes are flattened to a single layer. Then this feature can be added to the PSD plug-in as well.īug report: (Add support for fill layers) Support for fill layers is likely to be added along with non-destructive editing (scheduled for v3.2) or soon thereafter. An interested developer can hack on that at any time.īug report: (Merge vector layers GSoC Project) Prerequisites: review existing patches and redesign the implementation around GEGL vector operations. It has quite a few design issues, it has never been merged, hence we cannot support vector layers in PSD files yet. Initial implementation has been available as a set of patches since 2006. Prerequisites: non-destructive editing (v3.2). Then this feature can be added to the PSD plug-in as well. Support for layer clones is likely to be added along with non-destructive editing (scheduled for v3.2) or soon thereafter.

Prerequisites: none known, but this probably needs an extensive offline discussion. Space-specific processing with filters can be accessible without prior conversion to a particular image mode. We aren't convinced that we need to implement those exactly the way Photoshop does it. GIMP doesn't support LAB, CMYK, Bitmap, and Duotone modes. An interested developer can hack on that at any time. The difference between the two is that PSB supports larger images (up to 300K px in both dimensions) and uses 8 bytes instead of 4 bytes to describe various blocks of data. We hear from our fellow Krita developers that it isn't complete though. Most of the information on PSD/PSB is publicly available at.
