Re: [Gimp-docs] Distort filters - or Distorts filters?

2010-05-15 Thread Owen

 Owen (Friday, 14. May 2010)
 Distort filters is correct. (Filters that distort)

 Distorts is correct for the menu entry. (A number of distort
 filters)

 Hmm, but what about filters that blur, enhance, combine, map, or
 render?



Interesting question!

Perhaps it should be 'Distort' to conform with the other entries. So
it seems to me that;

Blur is being used as a verb (eg, Select from this list to blur), so
to conform with the others, you are correct, it should be Distort

 How do I use this? My Windows XP SP2 does not know about tar.
 
 I think I found the answer in the 'useless' thread. I unzipped
 the .bz2 file and pasted its 'en' folder into ..\share\gimp\2.0\help\
 but am now getting a The Help browser is missing with a Use Web
 Browser button. Any suggestions?

Maybe note http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html and in
particular where it says;

Note: GIMP 2.6 on Windows does not include the Help Browser plug-in,
instead your web browser is used to display the help. You may need to
go to GIMP's Preferences, click on Help System and select Web
browser under Help Browser.

Looking at it in Acrobat reader, looks like there maybe something
missing in the formatting of page xxiii, list of examples.

See http://members.pcug.org.au/~rcook/images/page_xxiii.png

FWIW, I do not know where the problem lies

I am totally out of my depth here, but here are some ramblings
 
 Now, some more questions:
 1. There are two folders, both with XML files: XML and SRC. I
 understand XML is the one files are built from, and SRC is the one
 GIT uses to fetch files. But how do the two interact? do I copy files
 manually or is there some tool or script to update one or the other?
 In other words what is the work process here?

I am pretty sure this is all controlled by the Makefile. have a sqizz
if you are happy reading that stuff


 
 2. UI screenshots: Do you have a preference for the theme used in the
 screenshots? The wiki says screenshots should use the default theme
 but is it the Gnome's or Ubuntu's default theme I should be using?
 Gnome's default is Clearlooks, right?

I am pretty sure what is meant here is that the Default is that set
out in the preferences under themes, .../share/gimp/2.0/themes/Default
 
 3. I intend to replace the astronomy images used in the quickies with
 images more representative of something a normal user would use,
 everyday objects such as cars, animals, plants, tourist attractions
 and if I find the right subjects, people. These are good looking
 images I took myself, but I want to know if I need to do anything
 rights-wise, you know, do I need to explicitly release them under the
 GPL or CC or what have you, and if I do, how do I do it.


Too hard, Ulf or Roman may help here.

 
 4. it's a long shot, but does anyone here use Notepad++ and has the
 correct HTMLtidy settings file to correctly reflow and indent docbook
 XML?

Don't know Notepad++, but there is a linux program tidy which does a
fairly good job once you psyche it out.
