Re: [Gimp-user] Save and automatically apply a series of editing steps

Unfortunately no, no short version of pushing buttons (yet).

Script-fu or Python are probably the best bet at the moment? At least
there's a script fu console and the pdb to reference while building out a
script...

[Gimp-user] Save and automatically apply a series of editing steps

2015-12-06 Thread Elle Stone
I'd like to be able to open an image file in GIMP (GIMP 2.9, not sure if 
the version makes a difference) and have a series of editing steps 
performed automatically.


I found the following tutorial: 
https://www.gimp.org/tutorials/Automate_Editing_in_GIMP/


That's a long, complicated tutorial (probably how people feel when they 
read some of the articles on my website :) ).


Is there a short "push these buttons" version of how to save and then 
automatically apply a series of editing steps?


Best,
Elle

Speaking strictly from a user perspective, it always sucks when you try
to open a file and the program fails to open complaining that it was
created with a newer version. It's awful UX.
Personally, I would prefer that the program warns me that the file was
created with a newer version and some features can be missing and open
at least something.

As GIMP is going to take some time to be released, it's probably a
better idea to try to keep some two way compatibility for the people
who's going to use 2.9 as part of their production pipelines.
I know that 2.9.x is a development version and it's not ready yet, but
since it has some really attractive features, some people will use it
as a complement for GIMP 2.8.x
I'm one of those users. I use GIMP stable mainly for my work, but high
bit depth editing is attractive since it allows me to do some things
that aren't possible with 8 bpc sRGB. Once GIMP 2.10 is out I will
definitely use it, but for now, I'm going to use it only for some
tasks, as a complement for the stable version.
The XCF version incompatibility is certainly a hurdle.

Let's keep our cool, Kevin :)

Sample points are currently limited to just 4 in the UI ("backend"
supports more), and there is no PDB API to access them from scripts.

So yes, theoretically it would be entirely possible to make as many
sample points as needed, then run a script that would export positions
of all sample points to something like CSV. For this to happen,
someone will have to:

1) adjust UI to allow for more sample points;
2) write PDB API;
3) write a script to access sample points via PDB API and export their
positions.

Volunteers are more than just welcome.


Actually, Kevin is just asking for item #2 :)

My apologies for appearing to be ranting (again)

Ofnuts is right about what I was asking for, and I beg to differ about the 
number of sample points.

I've raised a bugzilla: 759104 and given a couple of examples of use-cases, 
which use one and two sample points.

Re: [Gimp-user] Save and automatically apply a series of editing steps

That then begs the question: Have any of the changes in 2.9.2 been reflected in 
updates to the pdb calls for scripting? And if so, how are the fixed 0-255 
ranges being handled?

Re: [Gimp-user] Plugin for copying mouse coordinates to clipboard

2015-12-06 Thread Kevin Payne
As GIMP's built-in mechanism for picking points (Sample points) is completely 
unscriptable (WHY ), I'd imagine creating a new, small layer consisting of 
some crosshairs, then having the user move that layer to the desired location 
and using a script to get that location.

A completely different way of doing it, but possibly just as efficient:
use the path editor, making an anchor on each point for which you want
to export the coordinates, then use my path-csv script to export the
path (ie, all the points in one go) to a CSV file:

[Gimp-user] Alignment tool - Relative to Active path How does it work?

2015-12-06 Thread Gunold Brunbauer
I made a path and I clicked on the alignment tool with these settings: 
Relative to: Active path.
I clicked on a layer in my picture and I clicked "Align middle of 
target" -  but nothing happened.

Can anybody explain how to use this tool in the correct way.
I can find any clue in the context help.
