Re: [Gimp-developer] thumbnail generation for nautilus via gimp
Hello Sven, thanx for that.

Am i right i have to load and unload all the images of a directory to get gimp generating an thumbnail or is there a better way? You can use the PDB function gimp-file-save-thumbnail().

There appears to be bug which presented itself when I did the following: ... Thanks for the bug report. I'll take a look at it. As a general comment, I would point out that this interface might present a problem in the future when in-place text editing is implemented. Since the primary function of the tool is text input, perhaps it would be better to require a modal key (ALT?) when adjusting the frame so that, in the future, unmodified mouse clicks could be used to specify cursor location and text selections. I hadn't thought about this, but it seems to me that it would be simpler to distinguish between clicking (used in in-place editing) and click-and-drag (used for modifying shape). I actually dislike the idea of having clicking modes - We might have clicking locations - ike, clicking in the handlers always do resize, and just draw the handlers so that no text falls inside them. Certain programs that do use the two modes for editing and dragging the text container are an absolute PITA to use exactly due to this. (OOo anyone?) js -- But in general I am absolutely delighted to leave that sort of question to the wisdom of Peter and his cohorts. -- Bill ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

Re: [Gimp-developer] thumbnail generation for nautilus via gimp
Hello Sven, thanks for the link and the help. there is a thing that i don't understand, my script is opening the file and so the thumbnail is generated by Gimp automaticly when closing gimp. I thought using gimp-file-save-thumbnail would be faster and uses less memory then opening the files like i did. But now i read the documentation and see to use gimp-file-save-thumbnail i have to open the file first to get the image ID. So my question is: Is there an advantage using gimp-file-save-thumbnail? - |\/\/\/| | | | (O)(O)Bart.

From: Eckhard M. Jger [EMAIL PROTECTED] there is a thing that i don't understand, my script is opening the file and so the thumbnail is generated by Gimp automaticly when closing gimp. ... Unless a file contains an internal thumbnail (as jpeg files sometimes do), there is no way to generate a thumbnail for a file without loading it. So probably you're hoping for something that is impossible. -- Bill ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
