save a layer as a file is quick in gimp 2.4 (that should be available also for suse ,why you use a such old version as Gimp 2.2 ? )
For gimp 2.4 is needed
Ctrl-C (or Edit/copy )is the layer to save is the active layer,
(or Edit/copy the visible if correspond to the visible)
Edit/paste as new/ image/ and then save
If you install gap you may use Video/split image into frames.
(as name will use image name add a progressive postfix number for each layer
Layers will be saved in same folder whrere the original is saved (no option to chose a different place )

-I thought that with Gimp, one could save a layer as a new file, new
picture.
But when I click on the layer that I want to save as a separate picture, I
don't
see that option.
I went googling for this before asking here, and I found a place that says
you can add
a plugin for this, but I don't know how to add plugins.
So, do you knkow of a way I can just take a layer and turn it into a
separate file?
I'm using Gimp 2.2.10, and have already ordered SuSE 11, which will come
with
the latest gimp.
Thanks much for any advice.

You can turn the layer into an extra image and save that. There are
several ways to do that. You can for example drag the layer preview from
the layers dialog and drop it onto the toolbox. Or you can select the
layer, copy (Ctrl-C) and paste as new (I don't quite remember how
exactly that was done in 2.2).
Alternatively, if you are saving to a format that doesn't support
layers, you can just Save. Then in the Export dialog hit the Ignore
button. This will skip the export and the save plug-in will only save
the active layer then.

Hi Helen -
This discussion is exactly going on the developer list right now!
The feature is tehre, but it is imossible to find. If you tell gimp
to "save as", select a single-layered file format (like.png or .jpg),
gimp will pop a dialog warningyoiu the image willbe merged or
flattened, giving you a choice to "ignore". I fyou coose
that("ignore"), teh active layer is saved.
There is no feedback to this, and it is indeed starnge. The way I
prefer toing it is:
- pop up teh layers dialog
- drag the desired laer thumbnail to the toolbox
(gimp then creates a new image which content is the dropped
layer)
- save this new image file
- close it.
Regards,
js

Oh, in that case there's another way. Just enter
gimptool --help
in command line. It gives options for script installation or plugin
installation. The py script is a bin plugin, I think.

Very nice tool, thanks! :)
It laks preview, but does the basic and most important thing.
Is it possible to add preview in a python-fu plugin or is better to
develop a plugin in C ?
Yours
