[Gimp-user] Thumbnails creation and progress bar windows

2004-04-13 Thread Jean-Luc Coulon (f5ibh)
Hi,

In the File - open menu, if I select many files to build the  
thumbnails, it takes some (...) time.

So, I switch to an other desktop (I use gnome/metacity), leaving the  
process to complete in the (my) background.

But there is one popup, which displays the progress bar, for each  
thumbnail created. This popup is created in the current desktop and not  
in the one The Gimp was launched.

Is there a mean to disable the progress status window or to keep it on  
the original desktop ?

No. We hope to get a new progress bar API into gimp-2.2 that finally
solves this and other related problems.

I've just installed gimp.app (Version 2, OS X) and wonder, how I can
change the appearance. I've found the 3 themes in the
preferences/interface, but that's not what I'm looking for. I've
downloaded the theme panther from art.gnome.org and want to use
it. But how?
Edit your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 to point to the gtk+ theme you installed. You
will need to add a line like this:
 gtk-theme-name = Panther

This will change the look of all gtk+-2.0 applications that you
use. Alternatively you can put this into your ~/.gimp-2.0/gtkrc. It
will only affect GIMP then.
Thanks for your help. Since I don't have any gtk-apps installed but 
gimp, I don't have the ~/.gtkrc-2.0-tree. Please, can you go a bit into 
detail how I can modify the gtkrc-file to point to the installed theme? 
And where do I have to install the theme to. I've tried a lot of things 
without results... And please remember, I don't have DarwinPorts or 
s.t. like this installed. I have the Apple X11.app installed and on 
this base the gimp.app.
There are three themes in the Preferences dialog? I know about Small
and Default. What is the third?
The third one is named OriginalDefault

There's a lot of documentation on GTK+ themes and google will
certainly locate it for you. There's really nothing GIMP specific
about this.

Looks like the packager of gimp.app modified the application then. He
should have told us about this and he needs to make available these
changes.

[Gimp-user] How to parse an .xcf file?

2004-04-13 Thread Steve Litt
Hi all,

I've created a .xcf file in which you cannot turn off the selection. If you 
want to see it, it's:

http://www.stevelitt.com/images/page2.xcf

What I'd like to do is go into the actual data with an editor, and manually 
remove the selection. I'm assuming here that a .xcf file is some sort of 
compressed markup language, but in fact I can't convert it to text with 
zless, unzip or gunzip.

What is the format for a .xcf file, and how do I parse it?

I'm using Gimp version 1.2.5 on Mandrake 9.2.

Thanks

SteveT

This file has a floating selection. Either anchor it or turn it into a
new layer. There's nothing broken about the file.

 What I'd like to do is go into the actual data with an editor, and
 manually remove the selection. I'm assuming here that a .xcf file is

Don't attempt to parse it. There is no documentation on the file
format. It's entirely GIMP's job to deal with this format. Don't try
to use it outside the GIMP.

In the 2.0.0-4 there isn't the OriginalDefault-theme any more...
