Ability to show a grid over the canvas and optionally having the tools
snap to it has been added to current CVS HEAD (1.3.x). This feature is
not available in 1.2.x - you can however use guides: try click-n-drag on
the rulers, drag it to somewhere in the image. Maybe that can be helpful
to you...

 You are only making things worse if you convert from RGB to CMYK

Not really... people I talked to said they can perfectly handle that
(adjusting colours later in a layout program for example, or simply addign
a matching colour profile).

On the other hand, many layout programs simply treat files as CMYK, even
if they are RGB, which is a lot worse since it cannot be fixed easily.

Also, no information is being destroyed, since you had no colour profile
in RGB, the simple formula is a good as any other.

 would have long done. You should really let the printer do the
 conversion for you. Only the printer knows all the necessary details.

Unfortunately, the printer often can't or won't do that, since the
printer wants CMYK no matter what.

I'm not familiar with the gfig-display grid option, but.

I thought I was going crazy on this one, cause I could have sworn that 
this was possible, yet I could not find it in my current install of 
1.2.3 gimp on SuSE 8.2.

I know I have used such a facility before.  I fired gimp up on my Red 
Hat box, and sure enough, the right click menu has the 'guides' option, 
which presents the 'guide grid' option which does exactly (I think) what 
 you're looking for.  You get a dialog that asks for: x spacing, y 
spacing, x offset, y offset.

Now the question is, where'd it go on 1.2.3 on my SuSE box?

This functionality is provided by a GIMP perl script. You may be able to
locate a gimp-perl package for your distribution which includes this
functionality. Else you will need to recompile GIMP with perl support
enabled.
Thanks for the heads up, as I used this to put my wife's newsletter on 
her website (school teacher).  I'll be needing it again in another 
month.  I installed gimpperl-1.21-960 on SuSE 8.2 and I now have my 
'grids' menu option back.

So, might this help the original poster, or is this not what he/she was 
looking for? (sorry don't recall the name or gender... :) )

Re: [Gimp-user] CMYK

2003-07-16 Thread Sven Neumann
Hi,

just for your information, the CVS version does include the RGB-CMYK
conversions now and it offers a simple CMYK color selector. I have not
yet started on adding support for saving CMYK data but at least I
started reading the TIFF spec. If anyone wants to help to add support
for saving CMYK, that would be very much appreciated.

You can use ImageMagick to create an animation from your sequence of
PNG images. Perhaps GAP can then read this animation, I'm not sure.

 i need a script to convert x amount of png files into a single xcf
 file, is that possible ?

Writing that script in Script-Fu or Gimp-Perl should be trivial.

The feature you are talking about is a hack that uses guides to work
around the lack of a real grid in 1.2. It is implemented as a
gimp-perl script. Most probably your SuSE installation is missing
gimp-perl.
BTW: You should really, really update to 1.2.5.
I may well do so, but I've just recently upgraded this box to SuSE 8.2, 
and since it's my primary box, I'm taking things slowly.

I was a bit surprised to find the same version of gimp on SuSE 8.2 and 
Red Hat 7.3...

Re: [Gimp-user] need gimp grid

2003-07-16 Thread Joao S. O. Bueno
filters - render - pattern - grid.

There is a bug up to gimp 1.2.3, in which the horizontal and vertical 
spacing inputs are swapped. Still usable, though.

As for the axis, you will have to draw them by hand in GIMP. Depending 
on your needs with axis and such, maybe you shold take a look at GNUplot 
instead.

JS

I didn't think about how complex to make this when I wrote it, but there
is a grid shape option in GFXShapes in the new Graphics Muse Tools.  It
will draw simple grids with up to 27 lines vertically and horizontally
inside a bounding box, then let you scale the bounding box for your
image.  Not very useful for accurate grids or non-square layers, but
interesting for artistic uses.  I suppose if there were interest I could
try and make it do more stuff, but theres been very little interest so
far.

For your case, the Guide Grid Perl script used with the guides To
Selection script are probably more useful.  Create the grid of guides
first, then convert them to a selection.  Finally, use Edit-Stroke to
draw the grid.

[Gimp-user] Clouds filter

2003-07-16 Thread Mike Thorn
When I used 1.2.4 there was a pluginto make sky patterns with. It had 
colorpickers for things like clouds, shadows, sun, horizon, etc. That 
was all well and good, but I can't find it now in 1.2.5 and of course 
now I want it. What happened to it? Was it taken out and made into an 
optional plugin? Or did I miss something?

 Writing that script in Script-Fu or Gimp-Perl should be trivial.

It might also work to just use a current version of imagemagick and do:

   convert *.png anim.xcf

(maybe add some other switches to set fps etc.) or use another format
instead of .xcf and convetr it to xcf by load/save within the gimp.

We didn't take any plug-ins out in the 1.2 series nor did we add any.
We also did not move any plug-ins or scripts in the menus.
Hmm, very odd. Actually, I was using the windows port or 1.2.4. Does 
that matter?

It was listed under Filters | Render | Clouds.

Thanks for the help,

The plug-in was always an add-on.  It would have been installed in
/usr/local/lib/gimp/1.2/plug-ins/phymodmedia (at least on a Linux
system) so you may need to reinstall it.

Good luck,
