Re: mystery filters or script-fu

2009-11-11T06:05:23Z

Andrew,

The GIMP Images (GIMPi) Yahoo-group has some lineart-scripts from Lasm:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/gimpi/files/Scripts/
Also look there for scripts from Jeff Trefftzs (ink wash scripts).

And as Owen already told
http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/script-fu/files/Scripts/ also has
some interesting scripts.

These groups require you to become a member (if you are not already),
but you can cancel your membership at any time.

I will leave you to do the googling, but that looks like some of
lasm's work, lasm was a profilic filter/script-fu writer.

Maybe search registry.gimp.org for lasm ??

Also check some of the old posts on the script-fu group on Yahoo. The
scripts wont work on he 2.6/2.7 series, but could be modified to do
so.

mystery filters or script-fu

2009-11-11T00:58:04Z

hi,

about a year or so ago i had an image which i transformed using a set of gimp filters or script-fu. the transformed images were then arranged as panels, which i gave to my girlfriend and she was mighty chuffed. the resulting image is at:

http://chinstrap.ukzn.ac.za/~colliera/gimp-mystery-filters.png

now i am wanting to do a similar thing again, using the same effects on another set of images. however, in the interim i have reinstalled linux on my machine (changing from slackware to ubuntu) and in the process have lost my old gimp setup. i have gone through all the existing filters on my new installation and scoured a variety of web sites to try and find the filters that i used but no luck! from what i recall, all of the filters which i used were grouped together, so i suspect that they are part of a package?

does anybody have any idea what filters i used to create these effects?

best regards,
andrew.

This should never be necessary, and future versions of GIMP will have
manifest which will override these settings. I am unable to reproduce the
original problem on a fully patched 32bit Vista SP2.

I certainly understand and expect a few problems when I install the unstable
version of the software. I had (I believe) downloaded the necessary files
from GetDeb when I originally installed 2.7 on my 9.04 version of
UbuntuStudio. It seemed to be working fine as late as last weekend, except
that the text on canvas box would grey out and hide your typing. Then, Ubuntu
tempted me to upgrade, and, in the process, I broke my install. I had already
downloaded the US DVD, so decided to upgrade to 9.10. Then, found that things
have changed over at GetDeb, so that I had to get Gimp 2.7 via another method.
I don't know if it's slightly different, or if there is something about
UbuntuStudio 9.10 that is slightly different, or if I'm doing something
wrong.

Fortunately, 2.6 runs just fine, and I can certainly live with it until these
problems, whatever their source, get resolved.

Thanks for the replies.

The tool creates a new path from the text after you aligned it to a path. You
need to make a selection of that newly created text path and dthen fill it
with a certain color...

hope that helps!

The text tool is still a work in progress, as everything in GIMP 2.7. I guess
the current state has not been merged to the git master. as for now you need
to select the text layer in the layers dialog, then click the text on the
canvas. No cursor is shown, but you can remove and write text. you can also
double click a word to select it. There are some more bugs currently i
guess... If text sunndely disappears or is duplicated you can use CTRL+Z to
undo it and continue the work then.

I don't know how else to express it, but I'm running a fresh install of Gimp
2.7.1. The freshness because I just installed Ubuntu-Studio as a fresh
install, so had to install 2.7.1 also freshly.

Everything appears to be working except that when I want to enter text, I
select the text tool with my mouse pointer, draw a box on the canvas, I can
double click in the box, but no insertion cursor appears. Further, if I try
to type anything, other tools are highlighted (letter E activates the elipse
selection tool, for example).

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.

Gimp 2.7

2009-11-07T10:57:50Z

SOLVED. Had to run

sudo apt-get install libgegl-0.0-0

and that fixed it. Back in business. That's part of what I love about open
source. You have a problem, and a little searching reveals the answer.

Where did you install glib-2.22.2 ?

You will probably have to set the environment variable to look for the
libraries. It has found the correct pkg-config

Have you seen this;
http://www.gimpusers.com/news/2009-10-14/compiling-gimp-27-git-ubuntu-904-910.html

you mightn't be on Ubuntu, but the theory is still the same. Follow
that to the letter and you should be right.

The most recent installer source is
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-win/files/GIMP%20%2B%20GTK%2B%20(stable%20release)/GIMP%202.6.5%20%2B%20GTK%2B%202.14.7/gimp-install-script-20090321.zip/download

And it's Inno, not NSIS - I'm not masochistic.

Same as the script you found, except that it looks for Python 2.5 and 2.6
(GIMP 2.6 installers support both Python versions).

Re: Gimp does not recognize that Python is installed

2009-11-04T13:32:33Z

Don,

Thanks for your reply and good to hear that you succeeded.
I would not have expected that a Registry Cleaner would do the job,
but nonetheless congratulations.

Because I was curious about what registry entry the installer looks
for I downloaded some NSIS-source files of the Windows-installer for
GIMP.
At SourceForge I found a file with a name of
gimp+gtk-install-script-20061018.zip. 2006 sounds pretty old to me,
but it was the most recent I could find.

So I downloaded it and opened it and in gimp+gtk.iss I found a
function called EnablePython. This function looks in the Windows
registry for the key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\2.4\InstallPath. In my
Windows registry I could only find a 2.5 and a 2.6 for Python, but
newer GIMP installers might be looking for a newer Python version in
the registry.
Then it looks in the directory that is listed in the InstallPath for a
sub-directory called Lib\site-packages\gtk-2.0 to check whether PyGTK
is installed.
When this is found, one can install GIMP-Python.

Perhaps one could also use a registry monitor to see what exact
Registry key a more recent GIMP version is checking.
Or perhaps also newer installer-sources can be found online.

Martin,

Thanks for your response, but I just got the install to work finally.

I ran a registry cleaner after my last uninstall, and this time the
installation was successful.

Go Figure!

Thanks for your suggestions all the same

Don

Don,

Have you also tried Gimp-Python Easier at
http://photocomix-resources.deviantart.com/art/Gimp-Python-support-easier-74889017
?
I know that this was made before Windows 7 was finished, but it might
be worth a try.

I can remember that I also tried installing GIMP-Python (on Windows XP).
At first the GIMP Windows-installer did not recognize it (option was
grayed out), but in the end I was able to install it and use
Python-scripts with GIMP.
However, I cannot recall what I have exactly done when it was finally
recognized.
I guess I went over the different installation documents a couple of
times installing all kinds of Python-components hoping it would work.

Perhaps Jernej can tell what the installer is actually looking for.
It might be some registry key that can be missing or perhaps it is
looking for a specific Python version.

Gimp does not recognize that Python is installed

2009-11-04T09:13:19Z

Hi

First of all, I am completely new to both Gimp and Python.

I've installed Python and everything else that is needed for Gimp several
times, but when I go to install Gimp, the Python components are always grayed
out in the custom installation and therefore will not be installed.

I've followed all the instructions for installing Python, Pycairo, Pygobject,
and PyGTK, and have tested Python and found it working as it should, but
Gimp just does not see it on the system.

FYI, I am running Windows 7 Ultimate.

Does anyone have any ideas as to why Gimp does not
recognize that Python is installed on the system?

I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

I would say no.

Go to File->Open and you will see a dialog that allows you to select an
extension type. ASL does not appear in that list.

Re: gimp-image-set-unit ineffective on 2.67 for windows

2009-11-03T19:44:52Z

Hi Sven,

But I've set GIMP preferences Default Image and Image Size in mm, and
Default Grid in mm.

If I do File | New, image is displayed with mm units n status bar.

Why doesn't that happen for an image created
from a template created from my script?

Is there some other preference I should change?

Every program has at least one bug and can
be shortened by at least one instruction
-- from which, by induction, one can
deduce that every program can be reduced to
one instruction which doesn't work.

2009-11-03T17:31:10Z

Hi, I am new to this list and have limited experience with GIMP (on
Ubuntu). Now I have a ASL which google tells is PS style library file.
Can I use it in GIMP. Thanks. Arthur
