 Something like (dx*dx + dy*dy)  thresh might be a better condition, no?


Yes ;)

Thank you.

No one particular value of  "Thresh" would please everybody, it would give
rise to a "snap to an invisible grid" effect, so a setting mechanism for
this value should extrude into preferences. Though for very precise positioning,
one can resort to the "Move Tool" and cursor keys, and, perhaps dispense with
a preference setting (for now) and retain a relatively large area threshold.

I haven't tried this to see if it improves the situation. A matter for this
coming weekend.

Be good, be well

something that i would like

2000-11-28 Thread the Loial Raven

i think i heared something about a feature-freeze, if
so... er... sorry... just something that's anoying me(as i draw
something)...

i would like to be able to move the image being worked on outside (or at
least almost outside) the visable window.
I need this when selecting things close to the edge, especialy with the
tablet since it changes tools if you leave the drawing area(oh, is this
another problem... not sure... it kinda makes sence how it works
though)... especialy if i'm selecting edge-parts with the free-hand
select, it doesn't give as smooth a line if your zoomed out...

well, if it's at all posible, or if it's something i can set(or, if it's
realy simple, program myself) it would be greatly apreciated

Gimp::Perl - problem to save PNG

2000-11-28 Thread Jan Theofel


Hello,

I played with Seth's perl-o-tine plugin which is really great.

But I have a problem: Many of my pictures can't be converted in a 
GIF file (indexed mode), because they have too much colors. I also 
dislike GIF files because of patent problems, we all know about. 

So I thought, I'll hack a little patch for the script, so that it
handels the file as PNG files. When it works, I'd simply add a checkbox
in the userinterface to ask if the user want's to get a GIF or a PNG
output.

Anyway, the changed script doesn't work. :-(

I added my patch below, perhaps you can find the mistake?

The problem occurs when calling 'tmpimg-file_png_save(...)'. I also
tried the function gimp_file_save (as in the original script), but that
doesn't work either. And yes, I'm sure that I'm allowed to write files,
it my $HOME. :-)

My system informations:
SuSE Linux 7.0, gtk 1.2.8, Gimp 1.1.29, XFree 4.0

Thank you!

Here's the patch:

 snip 
92c92
 $imgname = "$imgbasename-$i-$j.png";
---
 $imgname = "$imgbasename-$i-$j.gif";
97c97
 #if (! $tmplay-is_indexed) {
---
 if (! $tmplay-is_indexed) {
101,104c101,103
 #$tmpimg-convert_indexed (2,0,256,0,1,duck) 
 # }
 #   
$tmpimg-gimp_file_save(-1,"$savepath$imgpath$imgname","$savepath$imgpath$imgname");

$tmpimg-file_png_save(-1,"$savepath$imgpath$imgname","$imgname",1,0,0,0,0,0,0);
---
 $tmpimg-convert_indexed (2,0,256,0,1,duck) 
   }
 
$tmpimg-gimp_file_save(-1,"$savepath$imgpath$imgname","$savepath$imgpath$imgname");
 snap 

Bye,
Jan

 Image Menu-Image-Canvas Size. Set the canvas to be larger (Say 800 X 800)
 Use the positioning widget at the bottom of the dialog box to position the layer
 somewhere in the middle of the canvas. Select OK.
 Hope this is what you want.

I would prefer to have a setting for how much void space I want
between the image border and the ruler. That way the image is the
desired size (no canvas resize), but you have more space and do not
collide with the rulers or other widgets when painting, for example.
Like when you zoom out, you can see space, but being able to see it
too even if zoomed in or a really big image.

Current does not leave any borders (supose 300 * 300 image in a window
that displays 300 * 300 fine, scrollbars and other widgets not shown):

 # Image - visible (inside window)
 @ GTK bg
 * Image - not visible (outside window)

Of course, here with ASCII art it looks crude (1/3 of window wasted
can be too much), but if the value is controlable (0..2048 pix for
example), it should be nice (most people would set it to the size of
current biggest brush, I guess, or at least half the size of brush).
