I can see there are advantages to having the entire idea encapsulated

Does your script call gimp-drawable-flush()? If it doesn't, then it's
not surprising that the image view is not updated.

Ok, testing your scheme script-fu again with a few additional settings 
does turn up a different result.  Apparently the stroke is being made 
with the background color though the pdb for gimp-edit-stroke-vectors says:

"This procedure strokes the specified vectors object, painting along the 
path with the active brush and foreground color"


That's the gotcha that got me on this one.  Another minor issue is that 
immediately after running draw_circle, the stroke appears in the layer 
dialog but it does not appear in the image itself unless you toggle the 
layer's visibility off and on.  So far I haven't gotten the python 
version to draw anything yet but I'll let you know if I get it figured out.

Cheers,

Re: [Gimp-developer] GIMP UI brainstorm...

2007-09-10 Thread Guillermo Espertino
It's a good idea, but I think you should add a little explaination and a 
voting system (like digg's one) to get some statistics of the degree of 
popular aproval of each idea (but I'm not saying that the voting should 
be considered for implementation, just statistics).
A little text explaining the idea would let the visitors understand 
better the idea. In the mockups I sent you can clearly understand the 
basic behaviour just looking the screenshots and the title, but there 
are other aspects that are important too, about the grouping of the 
windows in a single taskbar button, the new menu arrangement and the 
tool windows being dependant of the splash or the document windows. It 
would be nice to have that kind of clarifications too.

Also I think that not allowing comments avoids the possibility to 
participate in an existing thread and suggest improvements.
But otoh, it would require someone moderating that blog, so I understand 
why not.

Thank you for the site!
Gez.

I created it for the current svn version. It shouldn't be a that big
difference, but I found a bug while writing it, which is fixed in
current SVN - this bug created artefacts in the created stroke, but you
should get a visible somethign.

Make sure that the context you're using for stroking is set up correctly
and make sure you're not stroking white on white or whatever.

Hope this helps,
Simon
