In GIMP 3.0 what happened to the invert and normalize boxed in the Difference of Gaussian Edge Detect filter?

Just that, I'm trying to convert a photo into something resembling a line drawing and the tutorial appears to be for an earlier version of GIMP.

I believe it was removed. For the record. I could add this as all it would need is the node gegl:invert on a checkbox.

Good to know. Is there a way to work around it? I wouldn't want to put you out.

It's not only Gimp3, since it is not there either in Gimp 2.10. So what you seek goes back to at least Gimp 2.08 and would be over 8 years old (last version of 2.08 was in May 2017).

Given that Gimp has evolved quite a bit since, the tutorial could be a bit obsolete or sub-optimal anyway.

I'm sure it is obsolete given that the buttons they reference are no longer there. I just want to figure out how to do this even if it means changing the steps I need to use.
