Re: [Gimp-developer] improving the tutorials - let's rock!
Von: Liam R E Quin [EMAIL PROTECTED] There's a lot of bad tutorials out there. Some of them are on the gimp.org site, some are on gumpusers.com, etc... (2) at each step it shows 2a. a screenshot of the image 2b. any necessary dialogue boxes with settings you must enter 2c. the layers dialogue, or anything else that will help the user know they did the earlier steps correctly 2d. guidance for what to do if you went wrong. Each step should also have a short summary at the beginning - this way we do not force advanced users to go through all the sub-steps if the do exactly know what to do. (3) everything you must do is explicitly mentioned, including select none, create new layer, select a layer again after saving the selection to a channel, choose the brush tool. Links to the user manual should be included, too. (5) should be under the GNU Free Documentation License. Is the GFDL really a suitable license for tutorials?

[Gimp-developer] Need Information about GIMP Python and related projects
HelloI am a final year B.Tech student...I have been working with GIMP for the past 2 years..Recently i read about GIMP Python and some related project ideas such as mapping the GIMP widgets to python,enhancing the interface builder,enhancing the python console etc. and found them interesting.I would like to contribute to these.. Could anyone give me information about the current status of these projects or tell me how much of the work has been done and how much is leftEagerly waiting for your reply.. ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
[Gimp-developer] newb questions re python-fu
Hi, A coupla questions from the newb... I am trying to write my first python-fu plug-in and I cannot get it to install. Heres how I am pushing it to the plugins dir: cp VanDerWalt.py ~/.gimp-2.4/plug-ins/python-fu-vanderwalt.py chmod +x ~/.gimp-2.4/plug-ins/python-fu-vanderwalt.py Then I look for it under Image/Filters/Render/ and it is not there. Its a color filter that attempts to extract the bluest pixels, like this: code RED, GRN, BLU = 0, 1, 2 bluemask = (image[...,BLU] 1.4*image[...,GRN]) \ (image[...,BLU] 1.4*image[...,RED]) blue_layer = gimp.layer(bluemask, width, height, RGBA_IMAGE, 100, NORMAL_MODE) image.addlayer(blue_layer, 0) /code Q1) Is this even close? Q2) can I continue to use numpy (as I was with wx.Python) or do these images have to be treated with scipy? This is a volunteer project for the International Environmental Data Rescue Org (http://iedro.org), so if somebody wants to help me with it... the script is attached though it has not run yet :-o It is for converting rasterized weather charts (stripcharts) to vector data for weather modeling. paul python-fu-vanderwalt.py Description: Binary data ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer

Hi Paul,
I found a few mistakes here and there. The main one is that Python is
very strict about indentation. After that, the import Interpolate
line I changed to from scipy import interpolate as ma - I'm not sure
if that is correct or not. Lastly, there were some items like
PF_ITEM(foo, _(foo), foo) that I changed to PF_ITEM(foo,
foo, foo) and also I added Vanderwalt to the end on the plug-in
resgistration. Oh yeah - I also added an 'except' in somewhere befor
a finally...
So... now it still does not run correctly, but at least it registers
with GIMP :|
BTW - starting GIMP from the command line will show syntax errors in
py-fu scripts Also editors like scite and eric (among others)
show indentation problems in Python by default - these are probably in
your repositories.
HTH,
Chris

Sorry - This is a beautiful image, but I don't think it would do a great splash screen. IMHO wilber's sleep would be too easily associated with the lack of some features that are waiting to be implemented for a long time - that among those who already know the program. Among those who don't know the program, it would be rather difficult to associate the sleeping wilber with a really great product. js -- ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
[Gimp-developer] 2.6 splash screen
There have been on the list a few propostions for splash screens. It is a quite hard decision to pick one above others. It is allright if one is quietly picked up, or developed under request by one of the long time contributors. However since we alrady have more than one proposal, and from project contributors, maybe tehre should eb a more formal process for choosing a splash screen? For Gimp 2.2 we made a widerepad contest, havign to select from hundreds of entries. Maybe this time we could just formalize a deadline, and having some people to pick one from the presented entries - but without making the widespread advertisement. I do volunteer for helping picking the best one, but I am ok if we just have a date and a single person picks one and commit it. I just don't think we will have the best choice if people sparsely send their entries to this list, and whoever feels compeled enough comment on it. There is the matter of having to publicly express teh motives why one feels or thinks an entry should not qualify (like I just did) - and that is annoying both for the proponent and for the one who comments negatively on the proposal. js -- ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
