Hmm, this should make it into the release notes.

Thanks to Dave, Simon, and Mitch for the prompt replies.  I'm converting
the old brushes now.

Hi Jeff,

The GIH format has changed shortly before the 1.2 release since it used
the (now obsolete) special pixmap brush file format (which has been
merged with the GBR gimp brush format).

Just open the failing brushes with ->Open and save them again.
The plug-in is still able to read these files and will save the new
format.

ciao,

AFAIK, there shouldn't be any incompatible change - I have no
problem loading the brushes from gimp-data-extras (which are 1.2
brushes) into 1.3, for example. 

Could you provide an example .gih file for testing, please? You
could attach it to the bugzilla report you open describing the
problem ;-)

Thanks a lot,
Dave.

The GIH plugin still is able to load these brushes. You can load
them into the Gimp (as an image) and save them again. Maybe keep a
backup to be sure.

[Gimp-developer] Difference between 1.2 .gih and 1.3 .gih files?

2003-09-22 Thread Jeff Trefftzs
Hi,

I notice that I get lots of complaints about corrupt brush files when I
try to load .gih files from gimp-1.2.x into 1.3.20.  Can somebody please
point me to the right place to discover the difference between the
gimp-1.2 .gih brushes and whatever the
equivalent is in gimp-1.3.20?  I have a whole lot of brushes that I'd
like to convert if only I knew how.

TIA
