Yeah, that's what I thought. But insofar as my implementation is concerned, I don't care about speed, as long as it can be done. So I guess the question is: How do I request processing of the entire image, on a row by row basis? > I imagine either green > noise or blue noise based halftoning/dither might have properties that > align better with the GEGL architecture, not to mention that those > approaches do not suffer from similar artifacts of repeating patterns > that floyd steinberg dithering suffers from. Well, I think the aesthetic merits of the Floyd-Steinberg class of error diffusion algorithms is outside the scope of this discussion :) -- Hans Petter Jansson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ Gegl-developer mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gegl-developer
