I know someone must have been wanting or even working on this. I would like to make a plugin or extension that is basically guide point. Like the current Guides (h and v line) it would be a point. These are good for snapping image parts together: think sprites that have multiple parts. If this concept if taken to its conclusion they could also be like simple bines allowing / restricting rotation, offset amounts.
As a part of this all Guides could be assignable to the image or individual layers / groups. Currently of course guides are associated with an image. I have already written gui driven plugin for this, however it does not actually display or restrict or snap. It simple serves as a method for storing important points associated with an image or its drawables. Now the question... is anyone already doing this? If so can I help? If not anyone have suggestions for how to implement a small and simple anchor icon that is not part of pixel data? Any suggestions how to have the cursor snap to these points? Also some paint programs offer guides (lines) that are any angle, not just h and v. I realize these are not often that useful but there are many times I have wished for these to help especially when doing transformations. Live long and may your gimp prosper. -- Gimp-Monkey (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
