Hello everyone,

I’m using GIMP version 3.0.4 (PhotoGIMP) on Windows 11.
When I select the outline options in the Text Tool and try to change the color, the program crashes.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Open PhotoGIMP (GIMP 3.0.4).
  2. Create a new image and add a text layer.
  3. In the Text Tool options, select “Outline”.
  4. Attempt to change the outline color.
  5. The program immediately crashes/closes.

Expected Behavior:
Changing the outline color should apply correctly without crashing the application.

Observed Behavior:
The application crashes/closes immediately when attempting to change the outline color via the Text Tool’s options.

Could you please help fix this crash?
This is blocking the use of outline styling in text layers in PhotoGIMP 3.x.

Thanks in advance!
