It does not. What is delaying the execution is much more the nature of the PDB and the Undo system than python. With "aliasing" I mea just attributing the pdb functions to a local variable - with lines like these at the start of your function (or even at the start of your module): lineto = pdb.gimp_vectors_bezier_stroke_new_lineto ellipse = pdb.gimp_vectors_bezier_stroke_new_ellipse From then on you can jsut type "ellipse( ...) " instead of the long name designed to avoid namespace clash. This does not create new functions - you call the very same function, just using another name. > ...you mean using def for creating a function that just calls the other one? > or are "alias"es what Python offers as a separate feature? > > > > [...] >> > Aren't there pdb-functions that draw a line? >> > >> > Do I have to create it pixelwise? >> > In a loop? >> > >> >> As I stated above, there are calls to draw lines. >> Are you even using the procedure browser?

If you type "vectors" you will see all teh vector related functions.

The item assignment to set/reset pixels is a bit aukward - the example above paints the whole drawable in red (if it is a 3BPP RGB channel, else you willget an error telling the setting string is of the wrong size) For serious work with pixel regions you might prefer to copy the pixel data to a Numpy array - ther eyou can work with numbers from 0 to 2545 instead of having to convert all data to string prior to setting the pixels. > > [...] >> So, besides my hints above: when I need speed on a PDB using script >> (which includes python scripts), >> I found out that GIMP's undo system is the cause for a significant slow down. >> Creating an Undo group does not help - you have to disbale the undo with >> pdb.gimp_image_undo_disable > > OK, I will try that. > > > Thanks for all that hints. :) > > Ciao, > Oliver > _______________________________________________ > Gimp-developer mailing list > Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU > https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer > regards, js -><- _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
