Re: [Gimp-developer] strange tooltip meaning
Hi, It works in both directions: it can be used to create lens distortion or fix it.

Isn't this a mistake ? I am expecting that a distortion filter *distorts*, not corrects. Hm ?

And it can also be used to correct lens distortions. From what our users say, it appears that most people are using it to correct lens distortions. It would be cool if someone wrote a GIMP plug-in based on the LensFun project (http://lensfun.berlios.de/). That would probably be more useful when it comes to correcting lens distortions.

Sven I seems to recall having pointed out a couple of years back that this should be on the enhancement menu. If that's what most ppls are doing with it, that would seem to substanciate my comment. In either case the tooltip probably should be corrected to indicate simulates or corrects lens distortion. /gg ___ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
