Okay, done. I started with save-anim-layers, but then during the course of simplifying it to deal only with patterns I ended up rewriting pretty much the whole thing. http://shallowsky.com/software/gimp/save-pat-layers.scm It still registers in Animation, as "Save layers as patterns". Animation isn't the right place for it but it wasn't obvious what would be better. Any thoughts? Start with the original multi-layer image and run Animation-> Save layers as patterns, and it will save each of the layers to your GIMP profile patterns directory with the appropriate layer name. I've only tested it on one pattern (the animal one) but it seems to work. It does change the original image -- the layers stay autocropped, I didn't bother to try to revert them since I figure most people will just be closing that image anyway. I'll put it on the registry after I get feedback on whether it's working okay for anyone besides myself. I'd especially like to hear whether it works on Windows, since it builds up paths with "/" (which I think script-fu is supposed to translate automatically). ...Akkana _______________________________________________ Gimp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
