It is certainly possible to do what you say. You might find it would help to use the pandora plugin www.shallowsky.com/software/pandora/ I strongly recommend the book Beginning Gimp: From Novice to Professional by Akkana Peck.

Do not despair, Sven - the question is about "one color within a selection" - not the whole selection. Jonathan: You have to further trim down your selection, by using the selection by color and clicking on the desired color. In order for the new selection to be within the original selection, you have to use the "select by color" tool in the "intersection mode" - click on the fourth mode icon, at the top of the tool options dialog, afeter picking the "select by color" tool - check the tool tip to see if it is intersect selection. Then click on the desired color - voilá: only the pixels of taht color that were inside the original selection are selected now, and this is time to "Edit->fill with FG color" If you will be needing the original selection again, tehn you willhave to save it to a channel before doing the select by color step. To do that, go to Selection->save to channel . Tehn. find the layers dialog, and click again to activate the layer you were editing, else, the channel were thev selection has been saved to will be the active drawable, and proceed with the selection by color. After you are done, go to the channels dialog, and follow the instructions on the tooltips of the buttons at the botton to restore your selection. > > > Sven > ___ > Gimp-user mailing list > Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu > http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Well, yes. You also need the GLib and GTK+ header files. These are also available from http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html. It would probably be nice if the installer for Win32 would at least optionally install these header files as well as the gimptool executable.

Re: [Gimp-user] Newbie question - plugins in windows xp
First of all, thank you to Carol for being so helpful on this issue. I praise your willingness to help people out, and go beyond the call of duty in providing useful information. If you and Sven were not high-ups, you would be banned for being trolls. This is the best I can do for now since I have a ton of work. Scott, I had a bit of trouble compiling plugins on Windows, but I have a method that worked well for RawPhoto. I have not been able to get gimptool-2.0 to do anything but crash, but this method circumvents gimptool. First of all, you'll need a compiler. Head over to http://www.cygwin.com and grab the Cygwin setup. Run it, and install for all users, and make the default text file type Unix (just for the heck of it). Choose a fast mirror -- mirrors.kernel.org works for me -- and download some packages. It might take some looking through the list, but you'll need *at least*: (devel) - gcc - gcc-core - g++ - binutils - make - pkgconfig - mingw runtime (interpreters) - gawk (libs) -- get doc, devel, and runtime just to be safe - atk - freetype - glib - gtk+ - libiconv - pango You might need more, but I think that's all. If you have a problem, I'll try to figure out what's happening. You'll also need the same libraries (so we don't depend on Cygwin stuff) from http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html . Unzip all of these to the same folder, being sure to use folder names so you get a tree of folders and not just one directory filled with random files. Second of all, you'll need my makefiles and the like. Go to http://www.princeton.edu/~mplough/rawphoto.html and get the latest source file (1.18 currently). It's a .tar.gz, but Winzip opens those. THIS IS THE REALLY ANNOYING PART...SORRY...no automated builds here. I'm working on it... Now, you'll need to edit my Makefile. You can't use Notepad since Notepad doesn't like the Unix-style line breaks, so you can use jEdit, emacs, vi, or Wordpad (as a last resort). Change $BASE to wherever you unzipped the libraries to -- c:\libs would be /cygdrive/c/libs . Open up Cygwin, and type export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/lib/pkgconfig For example, if you unzipped to c:\libs, type export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/cygdrive/c/libs/lib/pkgconfig Now, go to the folder in Cygwin, and type make. The rawphoto plugin should build fine. If it doesn't, stop here and email the list with whatever error it comes out with. If you feel comfortable with Cygwin and this kind of thing, feel free to hack on your own. However, it took me four days to figure this out, so it might take you a while. Put the source file for the plugin you want to compile in the same folder as the makefile. You'll need to change all instances of "rawphoto" to whatever your plugin is called without the .c extension. For example, if you're compiling randomplugin.c , do a find and replace on rawphoto, changing it to randomplugin. Get rid of all blackbody.h instances. Because of a stupid thing about the build system that I can't figure out, you'll either need to put export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/lib/pkgconfig in your .bashrc or type it every time Cygwin starts up. Anyway, try building your plugin at this point. You should come out with a nice .exe as a reward for all that hassle. Put that .exe in /lib/gimp/2.0/plug-ins I haven't tried building the GIMP on a Windows system, so I'm not sure what to say about that. I hope this helps with the plugins, even though it's a bit of a mess and not at all elegant. Matt Scott Binns wrote: Yes - but what do I need to do to build gimp (and by extension the plugin)?

It knows about all the compiler switches that are needed, calls the compiler to build the plug-in and can even install it to the right place. For simple plug-ins that consist of only one .c file, it can replace a Makefile.

Re: [Gimp-user] Newbie question - plugins in windows xp
When I look in the folders listed, there .exe files there. the plugin I downloaded is a .c file - how do I get it from a .c to a .exe? I looked through the .c file, and it made mention of gimptool-2.0, so maybe I should be asking where do I get it?

Re: [Gimp-user] Newbie question
Since I don't have windows XP I don't know the exact directory, but when you open up gimp, choose File>Preferences then on the left hand side click on "Plug-ins" under "Folders"in here the directories where the plugins are stored should be listed. -Gezim P.S. when you post on the list please try and have a better subject (in this case something like "plugins in windows xp" ) --- Scott Binns <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I just downloaded and installed Gimp.
