[Gimp-user] Strange thins with GIMP 2.0 and SVG

2004-05-25 Thread Milen Dzhumerov
Hello people,

I am experiencing some strange things with GIMP 2.0.Yesterday when I
worked with svg icons everything was fine.But today if I open the svg it
is shifted to the right and down corner and it isn't okay.I open the svg
and then export it to gif to use it for a web site.To illustrate better
the problem here are the screens: 
Preview OK - http://www.openclub-bg.org/gg_ok.png
Open Bad - http://www.openclub-bg.org/gg_bad1.png
Opened - http://www.openclub-bg.org/gg_bad2.png

Thanks

Hi,

 There are some problems with the librsvg and Debian sid just after
 the upgrade of gtk+ to 2.4 2 days ago. It is needed to get librsvg
 from experimental to have the svg icons of the desktop themes
 displayed.  Maybe it is related?

No, that's certainly unrelated. The problem here is simply that the
SVG pixbuf loader module needs to be recompiled against gtk+-2.4.

[Gimp-user] editing path - selecting multiple points

2004-05-25 Thread Gergely Kontra
Hi!

I'm editing a bezier path to create a logo. I'm wondering, if I can
select more than one points at once (say the points, which are in a
rectangular area). Using shift-click is painful...

thx Gergo

Re: [Gimp-user] Exact placement and rules.

 Been playing with the DTP program scribus and its tutorials 
 a bit. One feature in that program is the ability to place 
 an object exactly on the layer by specifying starting 
 location and dimensions numerically.  A rule can also be 
 placed exactly by specifying its X or Y coordinate. This is 
 handy for things like book covers where placements have to 
 be exact or the image is useless. Drag and drop is not 
 adequate.  

I have, in fact, been wanting something like this too. And a very
similar functionality is aligning a layer on the image. I have made a
little mockup of two dialogs.

http://jimmac.musichall.cz/stuff/gimp/align-layer.png
http://jimmac.musichall.cz/stuff/gimp/position-layer.png

They both require a custom control, which may be expensive in terms of
developer time, but definitely a lot more usable than what align
visible layers uses currently for example. It is really hard to use and
hardly intuitive. The control defines what part of the current layer
(boundary) is to be aligned. 

Combining these two into a single dialog seems to be a better solution
though:

http://jimmac.musichall.cz/stuff/gimp/position-layer2.png

Open Questions and Issues:

  * The spinboxes and the unit combobox aren't accessible with a
mnemonic.
  * In some cases multiple source nodes give same results. I still
find the interface more intuitive though.
  * I am not sure if the dialog should remember it's previous
settings or fill in the current position (and recalculate when
selecting different nodes?).

I have filed this as an enhancement request #143163.

cheers

Re: [Gimp-user] using font in GIMP without adding it to system

I have a font that I want to use for a project in the GIMP, but I
don't want to stick it in the font directories on my system. Can the
GIMP use fonts (TTF) directly?

Simply place the fonts file into ~/.gimp-2.0/fonts.
Ah, thanks.
