GIMP 3.2.2 Released With Minor UI/UX Updates & Bug Fixes

Written by Michael Larabel in Free Software on 28 March 2026 at 03:58 PM EDT. 8 Comments
It was just two weeks ago that GIMP 3.2 released, one year after the big GIMP 3.0 debut. Out today is GIMP 3.2.2 with various bug fixes, plug-in / file format handling updates, and some minor UI/UX work.

GIMP 3.2.2 addresses some bugs that have been raised over the past two weeks and some other minor alterations that were safe for landing into the GIMP 3.2 codebase. Some of the GIMP 3.2.2 changes include:

- GIMP 3.2.2 does squeeze in some minor UI/UX updates.

- Fixing an issue with certain filters when added to layer groups, the layers would stop rendering.

- Fixing a number of issues with vector layers.

- More robust handling of various image file formats like FITS, TIM, PAA, ICNS, PVR, SFW, and JIF.

- The Adobe PSD plug-in now imports all of the channels in multi-channel mode PSD images.

- The "Send by Email" feature now works from GIMP AppImages.

- GIMP's 32-bit Windows builds are now dropped, which in turn helps save some space on the shipped Windows builds.
