Hello, When reading about the ideas for the SoC, I was reminded of an idea I got when looking at a collegue showing me the L*bVi*w code development environment. By interactively dragging out various blocks with a different set of inputs and outputs and connecting these with connectors he basically created a "dataflow". In LV these are usually used for reading input from various HW sensors and displaying them in dials etc. As I was thinking about other uses for the same idea, I thought of two uses in Gimp. Either as what was mentioned on this list as "effect layers" or as an alternative way of creating scripts. The layer paridigm seems to be quite limited since it is effectively one-dimensional. I believe that creating a canvas containing effect boxes and connecting wires through which images and parameters would flow, would be an easier interface to comprehend.
Sorry for these somewhat disconnected thoughts. Should I write it up more organized in bugzilla? Regards, Dov _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
