GIMP 3.0.4 Open-Source Image Editor Is Now Available for Download with Bug Fixes
GIMP 3.0.4 is a bugfix release that addresses a bug with pasting selections from GIMP into other apps where the pasted section was padded to the original image size, various crashes related to changing or turning off the main monitor, and some issues with text layers.
This release also improves the speed of font loading during start-up, especially when you have a large number of fonts on your computer, improves non-destructive filters by displaying the name of the filter in the undo history when added to an image and tracking individual filter edits in the undo history, and fixing visual glitches when rotating layers with active non-destructive filters.

GIMP 3.0.4 Is Out Focused on Fixes
Nearly two months after releasing 3.0.2, GIMP has just introduced its second micro-update, GIMP 3.0.4, which addresses a range of bugs and regressions and improves stability.
Among the general bugfixes, notable improvements include resolving issues with pasting selections into other programs—previously, pasted selections were incorrectly padded to the original image size. Crashes when changing or disabling the main monitor have also been addressed.
Text handling optimizations include significantly faster font loading speeds, benefiting users who maintain extensive font collections. Non-destructive filters have also received notable enhancements: filter names are again visible in the undo history, and individual edits are clearly tracked, improving workflow clarity.

GIMP 3.0.4, the second update for the major 3.0 release series of this popular image editor, is out!
The official release note is not ready at the moment of writing, though it should be available in next few days. According to the NEWS file in source code, GIMP 3.0.4 features bug-fixes, tools/plug-ins updates, and various improvements.
As you may know, GIMP 3.0 introduced non destructive editing (aka NDE). When applying filters to layers, instead of altering the layer pixels immediately, it adds them into stack that’s applied on the fly, allowing to easily revert, edit, re-arrange the filters.
Now editing non-destructive effects triggers undo steps. And, undo history uses NDE filter name instead of generic “Add filter”, making the label consistent with destructive filters, and is more descriptive.
