If someone is publishing incorrect information on a popular list, whether intentional or not, correcting that is an obligation, not an option. Regards, Michael Seriously Stop with the bloody CS2 talk, this is not what this topic is about. This was about trying to make a plug-in for Gimp...most this topic is about CS2 being free or not -- Vata-Raven (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list

The only edits that don't seem to change the text status of a text layer are those done using the text tool itself (and the Move tool, of course) You can paint over a text layer, and that will change its status. But if you saved that as XCF and then reload, attempting to edit such a layer will give you a choice: throw away all the painting and edit the text, or not edit as text. Ah, OK.

Whoever asks should have written a GIMP plugin for Microsoft Windows in the past and be familiar with IPC and with event-driven programming on Windows, and should get (if possible) permission to share the source with the GIMP community - a long-term relationship, not a one-night... er, not a short thing.

Guess I'll just have to pick my way through the SDK I know it's a C++ thing needed to program, as that's what the SDK product page stated.

[Gimp-user] Selecting single row or column
I've been using Gimp since 2.6 and had previously used PS CS2 That version had the option to select a single orw or column (from the 'Select' menu). I rarely had the need for this, but I'm now working on a project that could use that feature, and Gimp doesn't seem to have it . . . :( Checked out the gimp plugin site and Googlesearched it, but to no avail. Can anybody point me to a solution? - I tried selecting it with the available selection tools, but I'm not having any success with a large image. If it matters, I'm running 2.8.4 on a Win7-64bit installation.

That sounds quite easy and straightforward. Does it work for you? I tried to do this manually and failed. As soon as I activated another tool, the selection was destroyed. Then I added a horizontal or vertical path and made a selection out of it - and that failed too :-( That worked for me: 1. Activate quickmask (click the little rectangle in the lower left corner of the canvas or press Q) 2. Set foreground color to white 3. From the toolbox choose the Pencil tool. As Brush use '1. Pixel' and set brush size to 1 px. 4. Paint a vertical or horizontal line by clicking its start and end point while pressing Shift+Strg (on Mac: Shift+Cmd). 5. Deactivate quickmask (like in step 1).

Drag a guide onto the image, 2. from the toolbox choose the Rectangle selection tool, 3. in its tool options set 'Fixed height'=1 px for a row respectively 'Fixed width'=1 px for a column, 4. stretch a rectangular selection along the guide from step 1. The reason why it failed in my first posting is that a guide has a width resp. height of 0 px and selections of 0 px width or height don't make much sense.

[Gimp-user] Selecting single row or column
Thanks for the quick replies folks! I'll try the suggestions, surely seem pretty straightforward . . . I'll have to track down some tutorials on scripting, looking forward to the day when Gimp has an action/script 'recorder' like PS While I'm 'talking', I'd like to express my appreciation to everybody involved in Gimp development (as well as users on these forums) Many thanks, baca -- baca (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list gimp-user-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list
