Re: [Geeqie-devel] Thumbnail cache folder location

2017-07-28 Thread Colin (Sandy) Pittendrigh
I'm a user not a developer.  Not anymore anyway. I'm retired.

My answer would be $PATH-TO-ORIGNAL-IMAGE/thumbnails, which mirrors a
convenient way to organize files on a web server file system.

Re: [Geeqie-devel] NULL-ptr crash in image_read_ahead_done_cb()

2016-01-17 Thread Colin (Sandy) Pittendrigh
Just pep talk here.  I'm not a project developer.  But my (good) life
depends on this software. Without it I'd be a real sourpuss.

Geeqie, UFRAW, entangle, ImageMagick, Gimp and ZereneStacker.  All of which
are free to use except Zerene.  Which is still a bargain.

I use other softwares too. But that's the critical list.  Thank you. Thank
you. Thank you.

Re: [Geeqie-devel] File types for external editor [Was: Support questions off topic here?]

2014-09-21 Thread Colin (Sandy) Pittendrigh
Good question (what if I rename a test.NEF to test.nef?)
That didn't work.

geeqie --version yields geeqie1.1    which is what i got from sudo
apt-get install.

Interesting that geeqie starts external editor gimp with any incoming *.jpg
*.png *.gif or even *.tif but not *.nef or *.NEF, even though geeqie makes
the NEF thumbnails nicely.

I posted this on a mint linux forum and someone else (using KDE) said it
worked for them.  Perhaps this is a MimeType issue outside of geeqie?  I'll
poke around.

I'm thinking about backing up my user files and installing a latest and
greatest KDE  (am now using Mint Mate)

Re: [Geeqie-devel] File types for external editor [Was: Support questions off topic here?]

2014-09-21 Thread Colin (Sandy) Pittendrigh
Jon Seniors observation gave me an idea.  UFRaw appears in geeqie's
external editors  menu for me.  So I tried it.  Geeqie sends *.NEF just
fine to UFRaw.

But for some reason not to gimp, which uses UFRaw when the incoming file is
*.NEF or *.nef

Not sure what that means.  Or how the plugin mechanism works in Gimp.  Is
UFRaw really a plugin for gimp, or does Gimp start UFRaw up as a full
fledged process, and then capture its output?

Perhaps this is indeed more of a Gimp question.

 I think that since nef files need to be passed through dcraw (or ufraw if
 you want a GUI.), gimp pays as much attention to your passing it a nef as
 it would to a word document. On my computer, geeqie doesn't list gimp as an
 option for camera raw files but offers ufraw... from where you can send the
 image to gimp. Direct raw support in gimp is a few versions away as I
 understand it.

 Sorry for the top post... Android sucka a bit for that.

then gimp opens up showing the currently highlighted file.

However, if I highlght a raw x-nikon-nef file (the thumbnails show up fine)
and then try to start gimp I get an error dialog.
can't find matching file type

If I copy _PIC1234.NEF to test.tif , however, then gimp opens is just fine.
