[Gimp-user] how to activate a tool by script-fu for then using it interactively

[JoeSon]

Dear experts,

I would like to prepare a script-fu function for selecting a tool with prepared
tool options.

For example, there's a use case for always drawing (free hand) with a pencil,
wich must be a 2px line in red. So, I want to write a function, which selects
the pencil and sets the pencil's options to 2px.

What I found is the function "gimp-pencil", but if I understand right, this
function is used to imediately draw a line between given coordinates. But I only
want to prepare the pencil tool, so that the user daws free-hand, but with my
pre-defined settings.

Which function can I use?

Thanks a lot in advance for your answers!
Joe Son

So, I just found out, how to use the functions "gimp-context-set-brush-size" and
"gimp-context-set-foreground".
But I don't yet know how which function to use for selecting the pencil as
current tool...

When it comes to printing, black ink by itself won't give you a real dark 
black. The blackest-black you can get when printing in CMYK is C-75 M-68 
Y-67 K-90 (from a formula on a web page). These percentages are different 
than I remembered. The main idea is that you need more than just black ink.

sorry to be a pest .. how do i unsubscribe from  receiving gimp emails?

the forums will not accept my login - something about a wrong

effrontery to protest to my face that i have entered an incorrect email

[Gimp-user] configuring GIMP for sawgrass superdriver V4

[kwisj]

Hi Marco
Not sure what you are talking about. I just wanted some advice on GIMP settings
that's all. The sawgrass software is proprietary...but it is part of the driver
for the printer..its a free download to fine tune graphics software and the
printer that you use when printing out an image. Nothing heavy. If its not
possible to fine tune GIMP then a simple 'not possible to fine tune GIMP ' would
have done. I have been to the sawgrass site but they only have tutorials for
proprietary software like 'Photoshop.'
Been using GIMP for years and have never needed to use the sawgrass powerdriver
before.
All I wanted to do was to make sure GIMP and my printer software run as well as
I can make them together. Don't need any lectures thanx.
I guess GIMP cant drive a printer on its own, so I guess I need to use a
proprietary driver to print out whatever I create in GIMP, no?
Thanx for your advise...unvaluable

Well, you are probably not subscribed to the forums then.

AFAIK there is no such function.

Btw, once you have selected the Pencil, you can save and recall sets of 
options for it... (the two icons at the bottom left of the Tool options 
dialog) (this also true for most tools).

A, a top posting winderz user, never reads past the first screen of the 
message.  If you press the down arrow, the next to last line of the 
message contains a clickable link to the list membership control page.  
You can un-subscribe from there, but you MUST reply to the confirmation 
message the server will send you.
 
However, once kmail was able to be restarted, it did resurrect the 
message, this one, that I was preparing to send when the crash occurred.  
So here it is also. And I note that I was grepping for the wrong name, 
it was Neal Weissman, my mistake.

[Gimp-user] N Wasserman msg

[Gene Heskett]

You complained that a submissions agent said your mail was in the wrong 
format.  kmail did display it, once, but on looking at the raw message, 
it was apparently base64 encoded without the proper mime headers that 
would have made it a legal message.  At that point kmail crashed and 
would not restart without crashing again and again. I was unable to grep 
to find that specific message and delete it, so I was forced to clean 
out the Gimp-user directory in its entirety.  Then it restarted just 
fine.

I was unable to determine what mail agent you were using, it did not 
identify itself in the headers I was able to read before the crash, but 
whatever it is, is seriously miss-configured.

For starters, its mime-typing is broken.  Is it perchance an Oracle 
product? They seem to be at the root of several recent email debacles, 
and I am tempted to see if mailfilter can see that its an Oracle sourced 
message and kill it while still on the server.

You have a local problem.  His mail displays quite fine although his
addressing and top posting leave much to be desired.

Sorry if I seemed to be ... wordy ? ;-)

evidently I went overboard but I think that it is better a word more than
less... I thought you were looking for support for a proprietary software
now I know that that was not your intention.
