[Gimp-user] making a new view and controlling it from script fu
Hi! Is it possible to make a script-fu which creates a new image view (like in image->view->new), set it's zoom level, and disable menu, grids, etc? Untill know I found only one function in the procedure browser which might help: gimp-display-new But I didn't found any function which would set the zoom, toggle statusbar/menu/grid/etc... Thanks in advance!

[Gimp-user] GIMP freezing the computer for a few seconds
Hi! I have a very annoying problem with gimp, with different versions and on different computers as well. I'm making some gfx for mobilke games as well, and for that I need to work at a pixel level. I usually use the pen tool with indexed image, with a brush size of 1. And of course zooming in a lot. The problem I'm drawing with the button pressed, or sometimes even when selecting another color from the palette, or another tool, the computer freezes for a few seconds (from 5 to 100, varying). I tried with gimp-2.2.8, 2.2.10 and today I tested 2.3 CVS. The same thing happens on my laptop (athlon 1500+, ~384MB of RAM), on a 1.7Ghz Celeron PC (512MB RAM) and an on Sempron 2200+ PC (256MB RAM). So it's not the hardware, and it's not a temporary bug. Btw, I'm using Gentoo. I tried also different versions of GTK+. Also I noticed that while drawing with the pen tool (or the brush also) GIMP uses a LOT of CPU time. Is this normal? -- Best regards, Szasz Pal Space Software Studio http://www.spacesoftwarestudio.com ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] split tiled image
Hi! I'm looking for a gimp script/plugin which could split up an image in small tiles. For example I have 'tiles.png', a 128x128 image which contains 16x16 tiles. The script would be able to split it and save them in 'tile00.png', 'tile01.png', ... , 'tile77.png'. Does such script already exists? If not can you write me some notes on how to start writing one, what functions should I use for it? Thank you in advance!

[Gimp-user] subspace antialiasing
Hi! First of all thanks for the replies for the split-image thread. I have another question. First I will present you what I want to do. I read about the SubSPACE technique here: http://www.fooware.se/english/index.php?show=games&selection=spinner&subselection=tech The main idea is that pixels are made of the three componets: red green blue. On some displasy (like mobile phone lcd screens) one could make advantage of this by making sub-pixel anti-aliased images. Suppose I want to draw a diagonal white line on black background. On the following image the left side how it is done in the default way. On the right side is how would it be done, if the drawer would take advantage of the RGB components: http://www.spacesoftwarestudio.com/example/pixels.png To see the effect, it is better to try the following image: simply send it to your phone. Rhomb 1 does not use the subspace technique. Rhomb 2 and 3 use it, the difference is that rhomb 2 is for LCD screens with RGB order, and rhomb 3 is for the BGR order (like my Nokia 3650): http://www.spacesoftwarestudio.com/example/spa.png And now the question: how could I make such anti-aliasing easier? I made the above image by drawing it pixel-by-pixel. I'm thinking it would be easier, if I draw the image 3 times grater resolution, and then I could apply a filter, which reduces the resolution by three and adjust the RGB components accordingly. What do you say? Best Regards, Szasz Pal Space Software Studio ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

The concept is >described at http://grc.com/cleartype.htm Thanks for the link, it's great. So, is this implemented as a plugin for Gimp? Or volunteers are wanted ;-) Best Regards, Szasz Pal Space Software Studio ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] too many fonts
Hi! Once I have installed a lot of fonts (1000+) from the internet. My problem is it's very hard to manage them in gimp. Not only the list box scrolls and refresehs slowly, but I can find fonts very hardly. I was thinking if it would be possible to group fonts in categories, so I can choose which group to browse. For example all the fancy fonts would be in category 'Fancy', so when I'm developing some images for a buisness website, I don't need to see them. But when developing gfx for games, I could quickly change to the category fancy. Also I liked very much the font dialog in gimp 1.2, in 2.0 is it still available, and if yes, how and where? Thanks in advance! Best Regards, Szasz Pal Space Software Studio ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

So I should wait patienty till somebody implements it ?-) Is there a way to write a font-selector plugin for gimp? So by using this plugin people could have an alternative font selector?

[Gimp-user] Little bit OT: Genius WizardPen tablet
Hi! This is a little bit off topic, but I tought maybe you can help me. I have a Genius WizardPen tablet. The computer (linux) recognizes it as a HID devices, and I can use it an IMPS/2 mouse. But there are several problems with this solution: 1) the button order is wrong 2) I cannot get the pressure level 3) I cannot set the tablet size correctly I tried also with the summa driver, but no luck. Any ideas?
