Hi, let me allow to forward this message to a broader audience:
================================================= To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: announce gimp-gap-1.3.25 Hi all, GIMP-GAP-1.3.25 prerelease is available at ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/plug-ins/v2.0/gap/testing/ GIMP-GAP is a set of plug-ins for the GIMP-2.0 that extends GIMP for creation of animations based on a series of frame images. GIMP-GAP is the next development step of the Video Menu that once was part of gimp-1.2. Here is a short overview whats new in GIMP-GAP-1.3.25: ------------------------------------------------------ - new bluebox plug-in makes selected color transparent. - new features for the "MovePath" plug-in - animated perspective transformations - optional respect selected areas of the moving source object (with animated adjustable feather_radius) - integrated bluebox filter can be applied to the moving source object - tracelayer creation collects all scenes from start to current frame in one tracelayer. - tween processing for fast moving objects. collects scenes between 2 frames in the tweenlayer. - grab controlpoints from current GIMP-path - dynamic resize of the preview to follow current windowsize. - optional instant apply for the preview - playback for video frames to give a motionpreview in thumbnail quality. On linux the playback has audiosupport to play a wavefile synchron with the videoframes. - the onionskin plug-ins are now integrated to gimp-gap. onionskin layer(s) usually do show previous (or next) frame(s) of the video in the current frame. - new features in "frames to multilayer image" plug-in optional respect selection(s) in the sourceframes - new features in "frames modify" plug-in - new functions to set/delete/invert selection and set/delete/apply layermasks in all handled frames - renumber plug-in for renaming frames (on disk) you can set a new starting number for the first frame and define how much digits (leading zeroes) to use for the framenumber part. - change framedensity useful for changing the framerate without changing the playback speed. duplicates frames to get higher density or deletes frames to reduce density. - render filename (or just the number part) to layer - support of the open thumbnail standard (thumbnailfiles in png fileformat in $HOME/.thumbnails that allows better quality than the old .xvpics thumbnail standard) - filtermacro scriptfiles assemble filtermacro scriptfiles by picking filtercalls from the current session and execute them later all together at one drawable. - gimp-gap now uses the preferences value save always/only on changes (gimprc keyword "trust-dirty-flag") for unconditional/conditional implicite save operations when stepping from frame to frame. - vcr-navigator internal changes (now handles unlimited number of frames) - some minor layout changes. - internal reorganisations/cleanup of the sourcecode including porting to new GIMP-2.0 and GTK+2.2 api. - Video Layer Plug-ins. those plug-ins do call GIMP-Tools in a way that automatic usage on layers in many frames (or filtering all layers of an image) becomes possible without writing scripts.
