Would be great if my GIMP had that SAME FKING WINDOW...

There shouldn't be a tutorial for this. You Can thank GIMPs bad UI, people said it wasn't intuitive but I didn't think It would be THIS unintuitive

It was not in my toolbar. I had to go to tools>transform tools>Scale and then it replaces whatever tool you have currently selected.

the tool option doesnt exist 4 me at the right hand side
and the tools tab at the top doesnt have a "image" option
how do i size up my project?
all i want to do is put the same image next to itself, rotated 30° and 60°

I’m looking for a designer who can show me a quick and efficient method for automatically centering and resizing product images within a canvas. The process should involve the following steps:

1. Upload an image onto the canvas.
2. Automatically recognize the object in the image and resize it so that it maintains a fixed distance (e.g., 25px) from both the top and bottom edges of the canvas.
3. Center the image horizontally on the canvas.
4. Save the resized and centered image.
5. Ideally, this process should be applicable to a batch of images (e.g., 500 images) to streamline workflow.

THANK YOU!
Really helped me out. Didn't know how to move a bloody image I pasted... 😅

Doesn't work at all. Clicking on the Scale Tool button and then clicking on the image layer, and nothing happened. No matter how I click or move my mouse, that layer of image is completely static and no change happens at all.

Jesus, this is far the worst UI for bitmap manipulation ever made... I'm trying GIMP every few years, and it's still a nightmare to work with... Even the basic things like this are hidden under some icons, instead of clicking on the object and dragging the edges/corners...
