If a unified UI is considered a desirable feature, why would you say that each language binding should provide its own method of registering/providing preview images?

Re: [Gimp-developer] script-fu menu
I am not a GIMP developer, though I have been a spectator on this list for a while now. I suggest that you specify exactly what you are trying, and what exactly you are looking for. A detailed work-flow and a UI mock-up image would best describe what you want. Specify the problem.. not the solution.

Hi there, At first, I have toḋ say to you it is likely these chanegs are not going to be made. The auto-interface build up in script-fu, perl-fu and python-fu is a convenience, and presented as is. More sofisticated plug-ins should use GTK+ to draw their own interfaces . Unfortunatelly this is no option when you are using Scheme (script-fu). If you do your work in python, however, you have, in the opinos of many people, and in my strong opinion, an easier to work langauge than Scheme, and will gain the flexibility to build your custom interface as you please. (And still, won't miss any flexibilit otherwise avaliable only to plug-ins written in C). Ah, there are also Ruby bindings, should you prefer Ruby than Python. And finally, so that you don't think you are alone in this desire for greater control on the authomatic interfaces, I have thoguth about that as well, and it is possible that something more or less like what you are asking to be implemented for Python plug-ins.

[Gimp-developer] script-fu menu
Hi, I am writting a (almost finished) plugin in script-fu and wanted some features for the script-fu main option window of my plugin, but I was unable to find this googling. So it's probably not possible... I want to do these on the plugin option window: 1) Gray-out some options according to checkboxes; 2) Add arbitrary text, horizontal lines, boxes, or something like that. I would appreciate any pointer where I can find the above, if they are available features.
