exported paths - xfig etc.?
Hello gimp developers, I posted the message attached below to the gimp-user list, but apparently nobody knew an answer -- please excuse me cross-posting this, but I hope that maybe one of you has time to explain to me the format of exported "paths" ... Many thanks! Regards, Ulf -- Hello out there, I gladly discovered the path feature of (very promising!) gimp 1.1.25. One question: Does somebody have an idea how to convert a couple of exported path files to a file in one of the common vector graphics formats (or is there already a utility which does the job?!) -- it seems to me that necessary information is provided in the exported textfile, but I'm not too experienced in those things ... however, to do it myself, I would like to have a format description of the exported path files (e.g., what does Type 1/Type 2 mean?). What I want to do is the following: I loaded a satellite image and digitized some areas in a separate layer, saving them as paths. Now I want to make a (vector based) map ... I'm a little bit too lazy to do it with grass ... Can somebody help? If so (*many thanks* in advance ;-), please mail me directly/CC: me, I'm not on the list at the moment ... Many thanks for your attention, Ulf P.S.: ... and does somebody know how to measure not just distances but area of a selection? -- === Ulf Mehlig[EMAIL PROTECTED] Center for Tropical Marine Ecology/ZMT, Bremen, Germany ---

Hello - My name is Johnathon Rourke, I'm from Rhode Island. The enclosed information is something I almost let slip through my fingers. Fortunately, sometime later I re-read everything and gave some thought and study to it. Two years ago, the corporation I worked for for the past twelve years down-sized and my position was eliminated. After unproductive job interviews, I decided to open my own business. Over the past year, I incurred many unforeseen financial problems. I owed my family, friends and creditors over $35,000. The economy was taking a toll on my business and I just couldn´t seem to make ends meet. I had to refinance and borrow against my home to support my family and struggling business. AT THAT MOMENT something significant happened in my life. I am writing toshare the experience in hopes that this could change your life FOREVER. FINANCIALLY$$$!!! In mid December, I received this program in my e-mail. Six months prior to receiving this program I had been sending away for information on various business opportunities. All of the programs I received, in my opinion, were not cost effective. They were either too difficult for me to comprehend or the initial investment was too much for me to risk to see if they would work. But as I was saying, in December of 1997 I received this program. I didn´t send for it, or ask for it, they just got my name off a mailing list. THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT!!! After reading it several times, to make sure I was reading it correctly. I couldn´t believe my eyes! Here was a MONEY MAKING MACHINE I could start immediately without any debt. Like most of you I was still a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161 24-hrs) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal! After determining the program was LEGAL I decided "WHY NOT!?!??" Initially I sent out 10,000 e-mails. It cost me about $15 for my time on-line. The great thing about e-mail is that I don´t need any money for printing to send out the program, and because I also send the product (reports) by e-mail, my only expense is my time. In less than one week, I was starting to receive orders for REPORT #1. By January 13, I had received 26 orders for REPORT #1. Your goal is to "RECEIVE at least 20 ORDERS FOR REPORT #1 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF YOU DON´T, SEND OUT MORE PROGRAMS UNTIL YOU DO. My first step in making $50,000 in 90 days was done. By January 30, I had received 196 orders for REPORT #2. Your goal is to "RECEIVE AT LEAST 100+ ORDERS FOR REPORT #2 WITHIN 2 WEEKS. IF NOT, SEND OUT MORE PROGRAMS UNTIL YOU DO. ONCE YOU HAVE 100 ORDERS, THE REST IS EASY, RELAX, YOU WILL MAKE YOUR $50,000 GOAL." Well, I had 196 orders for REPORT #2, 96 more than I needed. So I sat back and relaxed. By March 1, of my e-mailing of 10,000, I received $58,000 with more coming in every day. I paid off ALL my debts and bought a much needed new car! Please take your time to read this plan, IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER$!!!

*BUG REPORT* - gimp 1.1.26 and jpeg saves
Hello all, First up, I hope that this is the right place to report this bug. Second thing: This is a great product. You guys should be proud of yourselves! Now the bug report: Here are the steps that I follow to reliably crash GIMP: 1. open a 1600x1200 image 2. resize image to 132x99 3. right mouse button -> file -> save as 4. rename file, but leave as a JPEG 5. Select the quality slider with the mouse 6. hold down the keyboard left or right arrows (left goes further :-) 7. Go back to console and press 'E' to exit the crashed gimp... I have no reason to believe that steps 1-2 make sweet rafoosle difference. I suspect, but of course cannot verify :-) that this is a threading issue, since if in step 6) if I press the key one step at a time then the problem does not occur. Also, if I make the image "large enough" the problem does not occur. Maybe the preview engine stomps on something while it is being read by the main window? My guess is that "large enough" is anything that takes long enough to encode that the drawer is definitely finished with it by the time the new image is overwritten. I am guessing this based on the Gtk error messages, but have never looked at the code, so should probably let you folks do that :-) I am not on the dev list for this project, so if you want more information, or would like me to test a source patch (yes I have the power of the source...) then please contact me directly.

Unfortunately I cannot access bugs.gnome.org at the moment but the number starts with 12*** and you'll find it at the place for critical bugs. He provided a really nice backtrace, too. We found out that this bug just occurs with an open layersdialog and that different bugs occurred on his machine when this is not the case. Unfortunately I cannot debug it because this error doesn't show up on my machine; prerequisite for it is that you change one of the parameters while an update of the preview is running in the image display. However the dialog is blocked on my machine (which seems sensible to me) by default and I'm not quite sure why -- Servus, Daniel
