Re: Bumpmap with negative Depth ??

I think the effect you are talking about is called 'Carve-It'. Cheers! Kevin.

GIMP 1.2.0 source and binary RPM files
Greetings, all! I now have source RPM files. I will be uploading the patches, source and binary RPMs to gimp.org later today. These files will become available for downloading once they have gone through whatever process contributed files go through. The RPMs I have are for both gimp-1.2.0 and gimp-data-extras. The binary RPM files were compiled on a machine running RedHat 6.2. If anyone is desparate to have RPMs and can't wait for the files to be available via gimp.org, let me know and I will arrange to make them available on a website. I won't send the spec and patch files through the mailing list to save peoples already overflowing mailboxes. You may now jump up and down, and cheer (or not). :-) Cheers! Kevin.

As far as I can tell this file does not need a DESTDIR patch. It is determining which argument to pass to the make in the sub-directories based on how this level make was invoked. Last night I compared the contents of the .rpm files created using my updated .spec file against the files installed in to the directory tree used for the CVS based version of GIMP. I feel I am picking up everything that my development version was installing so I am making a patch for the ChangeLog file. I will then do one more build to verify everything is ok and release the patches. After this, I will create a spec file for gimp-data-extras. I will also compare the source tree for the GIMP 1.2.0 which I downloaded as a tar ball and compare it against the CVS version I downloaded fresh last night. I know there are some patches that were made to the original 1.2.0 so I will try and incorporate them in to the .src.rpm if there is not already an updated file with the latest patches at gimp.org already available.

Check for paths in the 'gimprc' file under the directory where you installed GIMP plus in the users area under the .gimp-1.1 directory. In the main gimprc file there is a path called 'prefix' which is the main one you need to modify. Changing the path should help but I do not guarantee that this will make it fully operational but its worth a shot. Alternatively, you could grab the source and compile it yourself. This would allow you to specify any install path you liked.

Re: The undo stack does not record some changes in layer attributes
Greetings! On Wed, 07 Jun 2000, Sven Neumann [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: [quoting Austin Donnelly [EMAIL PROTECTED]] I would be very unhappy if changing the layer opacity from 100% to 50% would eat up a dozen or more undo-steps since each value_changed signal from the slider triggers an undo which causes another undo-step fall off the end of the undo queue. Oh, sure - that's clearly a bad idea. I was thinking of only pushing the undo when you release the slider. That doesn't help those using the keyboard to nudge the slider though. [...] I just had an idea re: the undo stack. It shouldn't matter whether changes are done via keyboard or via mouse. Not pushing an undo on to the stack until the mouse release would help (ie. when adjusting sliders or spin buttons) but only affects mouse operations. The more generic solution is to check the last entry of the undo stack before pushing something on to the undo stack. If someone is nudging a given slider, a check would show that the last operation on the undo stack is a change to that same slider. You would then throw out that stack entry and push the latest change to the stack. This assumes that the operation being done a bit at a time does not affect an image being worked on. If the user nudges different sliders each time, then you would save each nudge of a slider (for example). The tricky part might be to determine whether the last item on the undo stack caused a change to an image. Changes to image previews should probably be ignored. I'm not suggesting this be done for 1.2 as I suspect its too likely to wind up adding bugs to the GIMP. It would help to maximize the use of the undo stack, however.
Re: static and forward declaration
CodeWarrior is correct in its message. The variables are being defined the first time for use in the procedural_db_register() calls and then later they are defined again but this time with initial values. Does CodeWarrior issue the redefinition message as a warning or as an error? The output from 'gcc -v' on my machine is: Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.66/specs gcc version egcs-2.91.66 19990314/Linux (egcs-1.1.2 release) Even though -Wall is specified, gcc accepts it without even a warning. I don't know offhand if this behaviour is allowed by the standard. My personal coding style would put the declaration with initial values before the first use which would eliminate the two lines at the top of the file.

Re: Edit Fille behaviour change?
My usage pattern is Fill = Undo = Swap Colours = Fill = Swap Colours ^ + insert a "this damnit fill braindamage e3stD%$DFZG§ gimp thing" here. Apart form the API changes (breaking _some_ plug-ins), I highly welcome that change. But I'd also say it was not a bug. "but but" now is a good time to change that. So I am not the only one that has the usage pattern with fill listed above. I don't know if its from other graphics programs I have used or just what made sense to me but I expected fill to use the foreground colour. I mean after all, you don't expect the pencil tool to draw with the background colour. From some of the other comments on the mailing list here, perhaps its something that should be changed after 1.2 is out. Many scripts may have to be adjusted and some of us may have to adjust the way we use GIMP slightly but I think it makes more sense to fix something that is a little odd rather than live with it forevermore IMHO.

Re: Translation inconsistency
If you need to tell USERS something important then it should not be in these strings, you should rather write a paragraph for the GUM. (B) don't mark the strings for translation, not in the core, neither in the plug-ins It depends on what is meant by having something important to tell the users. If the information is just letting the user know how to do something or what a particular feature does this should be in the manual.

They are not SO critical that I have been unable to use script-fu They are ciritcal enough that some plug-ins (like the logulator) never worked because of it.

I am searching the mailing list archives but there are so many messages I haven't found it yet. Using "script-fu" as a search criteria only 206 messages were found. I haven't found one yet which seems to mention script-fu problems in the subject line. I did find the following message from around May of 1999: 1. Gimp segfaults on the first PDB call to gimp_paintbrush. The reason is that the pointer "paintbrush_options" (app/paintbrush.c) is NULL as it isn't initialized automatically. I haven't checked but if other tools use a similar technique these also won't work. (I also haven't checked wether this depends on the global paint options setting). 2. Also, could somebody tell me how I can set the tool options? I seem unable to use gradients from my scripts. 3. How do I use the ink tool? There seems to be now way of using it from scripts. 4. --with-mp=yes slows down the paintbrush tool by approximately 5791%, if not more. (seriously, drawing a line takes 5 seconds instead of 0.2), this was tested with the Circle (01) brush. The same is true for the pencil tool but NOT for the ink tool, which is still fast.

Re: get terrence brannon OFF these lists
When you join the list, you get directions on how to unsubscribe. A rational being, a thoughtful being, a being who belongs on a technical list, will save these instructions, and use them if needed. This is true. However, the list changed from being based on majordomo to ezmlm and the instructions changed. The new instructions were e-mailed out to all on the list and the new info should have been saved. Also, the information could have been sent directly to the individual and saved some of the discussions on this list. Cheers! Kevin.

Re: Help System
Why not allow the user to choose his/her browser of choice ? With Netscape, Mozilla, the Gnome Help Browser, kfm, or even Lynx in an xterm as possible choices, I don't see any problem with this... So Gimp help should be a set of HTML files and a small exec to launch the preferred browser (calling process already running if needed, a la moz remote). GSR You beat me to it. I was about to suggest that the simplest solution is to create simple HTML files for use as help and let the user use whatever browser they prefer to use in order to view the help files. This is essentially what is done in a Windows based HTML editor known as Dreamweaver (as if you really care what a Windows program does :-). Cheers! Kevin.

Re: bmp-plugin
Do you have example 16-bit and 32-bit BMP files, and also examples of non-working RLE images? I have been collecting images which broke Gimp for some time now to check for regression in new builds. I have a 16-bit BMP file I can send you. If you want it, tell me where to send it. I should tell you that it is a 1280x960 pixel BMP with 16-bit colour depth. It was created from a .jpg using Netscape to turn it into Windoze wallpaper. Its 2,401kb in size. I will update my copy of GIMP and the bmp plug-in and see if I can load the image. Cheers! Kevin.
