We aren't talking about an extra window here. Please don't call it an no image window. It's the image window, just in a special state where it doesn't show an image because no image is currently opened. At least that's how I understand the idea...

Properly map Gimp Widgets and objects to Python Instead of mapping GIMP widgets to Python directly, it would probably make more sense to make sure that GIMP widgets are GtkBuildable. The GtkBuildableIface interface contains method that are necessary to allow GtkBuilder to construct an object from a GtkBuilder UI definition. This would make it a lot easier to write GIMP plug-ins as developers would have less hassle with UI code. == SVG brushes == VBR brushes in GIMP - basic shapes like ellipses, rectangles and rhombuses; with additional spikes - are scalable. In SVN trunk, all brushes including the pixmap-based ones can at least be scaled down. We do not yet have means for more advanced brushes (think about a brush consisting of two disjoint circles) that can be scaled up in a lossless way. Using SVG files as brushes could help to solve this. I don't think that SVG brushes is enough for a GSoC project. Adding a loader for SVG brushes can easily be done over a weeekend. What would make this a lot more interesting is to add the infrastructure in the paint core to actually make use of transformable brushes.

This feature could be implemented in a new GIMP library or as part of libgimpui. How so? This is really something that can be implemented in about ten lines of code. Most of this code will be Script-Fu specific. So I don't see how this could be part of any GIMP library. The one question I forgot to ask is how would a person get to see these preview images? Using an image preview browser? A show preview button (or menu item) in the scripts UI window? Some other mechanism (yet to be decided)? That is indeed the more difficult question here. Besides the question whether such static example images would be useful at all. The easiest solution is probably to put it inside the scripts UI window similar to how plug-ins place their previews.

[Gimp-developer] gimp_patterns_get_list
Hi, I have the following problem: when calling gimp_patterns_get_list on the Gimp server, version 2.2 I got an error: not enough arguments for function 'gimp_patterns_get_list' The function works on the Gimp server, version 1.2. I checked here: http://hans.breuer.org/gimp/pdb/alphabetic.html and it appears I can call it with no parameters. Can somebody point to the list of functions that can be used on Gimp 2.2?
