[Gimp-user] Run GIMP in batch mode ... HOW ?
Hi, Can I run GIMP in batch mode ? For example, I want to invoke GIMP from my application (written by C) via UNIX's pipe (or popen in C) ... How to do that ? Any example, tutorial will be appreciated. Thanks Regards KC ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Color Picker popup dialog.
Hello all, I'm joining/emailing to ask a very important question involving the color picker tool. Is it necessary to have the dialog pop up every time you choose a color with this tool? Is there a way to disable it? I've searched bugzilla, and come up with bug #139349, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=139349 I've searched all over the web, and even through the mailing list archive, but I can't seem to find an answer. This one simple annoyance keeps me from using GIMP fulltime because I'm constantly selecting colors from one image to use in another, and every single time, the color picker popup comes up and steals focus. Now, just the fact that it steals focus isn't the concern. The popup itself should never be there. If the popup is going to come up every time you use the tool, it should be part of the main GIMP dock or not there at all, I'm voting not at all. The reason being that you can easily get the color value of the color you just selected by click on the color in the main GIMP dock anyways. Its probably a design problem. But I digresscan anyone help me disable the popup or lend some insight? I'm all ears. Thanks everyone, -Ben ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

We probably won't change this in the 2.2 series of the GIMP. However, are you aware that (in 2.2) CTRL-clicking with a paint tool picks a color from an image without a popup?

Re: [Gimp-user] Color Picker popup dialog.
Well thankyou for the prompt response Simon. I'm glad to hear that GIMP CVS has this option changed, but also sad to hear that it won't be making its way into 2.2. I wasn't aware that holding CTRL while using a paint tool selected a color. I'm not sure many people could possibly be aware of this behavior. Seems a smidge strange, but I'll take it =P Thanks for the help, -Ben On 1/17/06, Simon Budig [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Ben Foote ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) wrote: But I digresscan anyone help me disable the popup or lend some insight?

Hi, Thanks for the info. Is it possible not to use script-fu ? Any other language binding is supported by GIMP ? The language used by script-fu is ... looks difficult to me :-( Regards KC On 1/18/06, wahgnube [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: KC wrote: Hi, Can I run GIMP in batch mode ?

Thanks If you're interested in performing operations using the gimp from the command line, you can use the instructions found here: http://gimp.org/tutorials/Basic_Batch/ All you need to do is to write a simple (gimp script-fu) script, and execute it in the gimp. You can wrap such calls in a shell script or something (your program) to derive more functionality.

Thanks If you haven't already found it, you may also want to look at ImageMagick. It provides APIs for C and C++ and other languages. If it has the capabilities you need, you may be able to avoid the pipe/popen thing.
