    Weird, I’m pretty sure 2.10 already has support for importing PS patterns.

    edit> I think I confused it with PS brushes

      Does it? Is is native or is it a plugin maybe, you forgot that its a plugin. Or if this is true, maybe the importing was removed in v3 until the re-implemented it? Official announcement part is here: https://www.gimp.org/news/2025/06/23/gimp-3-1-2-released/#photoshop-patterns I am sure if it was already supported, they would have said anything about it.

      Looking through the documentation for legacy version 2.10, I found following part: https://docs.gimp.org/2.10/en/gimp-concepts-patterns.html

      Caution

      Do not confuse GIMP-generated .pat files with files created by other programs (e.g. Photoshop) – after all, .pat is just a part of an (arbitrary) file name.

      (However, GIMP does support Photoshop .pat files until a certain version.)

      Looks like v2.10 did not support Photoshop Pattern officially. But it supported it in prior versions (not sure when they stopped).
