Re: [Gimp-user] Where to put python file 2016

2016-11-27 Thread Scott Jacobs via gimp-user-list

 Suggestion:

Try starting GIMP from the terminal.  If there is a problem with a plugin and 
it cannot be loaded,
there will be an error message.

I recently tried to install Resynthesizer, and it did not appear in the menu.
I tried both places that Preferences-->Folders said to put the files, and ... 
nothing.
I started GIMP from the terminal, and found that there was some sort of problem
that caused Resynthesizer not to be loaded.  If it is not loaded, it does not 
appear
in the menu.  
It may be that you're putting your plugin in the right place, but there is a 
problem with it,
and GIMP cannot use it.

[Gimp-user] Where to put python file 2016

2016-11-27 Thread rich2005
I forget what I did myself. Need to add a video on installing plugins in Gimp
2.8 although advice on that is all over the place.

Plugins go in your Gimp profile usually

C:\Users\"yourname"\.gimp-2.8\plug-ins

If you have a 'bespoke' installation then find the location of your gimp profile
using Edit -> Preferences -> Folders -> plug-ins.

I advise removing the layerfx.scm script in case of conflicts with the python
plugin.

The layerfx plugin should show at the bottom of the layers menu and also right
click context bottom of the layers dialog.

Python is incorporated in Gimp 2.8.x so there should be no problem. As well as
the old .scm there are 2 versions of layerfx.py one specifically for Gimp 2.8
see:
