Re: [Gimp-user] Best performance on 4000x2200 pixel images.

Hi,

William Skaggs [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I have noticed before that the previews for the image map tools (of
 which color balance is one) seem slower than they ought to be.  The
 operation they are doing is extrememly simple, so they ought to be
 as fast as other simple tools like bucket-fill, but they are not.

It doesn't surprise me that filling with a solid color is faster than
applying a color-correction. I don't think the image map tools are
implemented particularily slow (but of course I would like to see a
faster implementation). The problem rather seems to be that the effect
is applied on the whole image instead of doing some kind of preview
that takes the viewed area and display scale into account.

How do you know that it is seen by GIMP as a plug-in? Did you locate
it in the Plug-In Browser (as found in Toolbox-Xtns)?

Hi,

Ryan M. Short [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:

 I'm new to the list and you guys probably already know about this, but
 I use the GIMP quite a bit and noticed a bug with the last version I
 downloaded where the percentage option under the scale image feature
 doesn't work right. Is there a fix for this?

This is fixed in GIMP version 2.2.3.

How, as a standalone? if I call xsane without the Gimp open, it by 
default scans to viewer, file or others, but under Gimp, it scans to the 
Gimp.

My xsane under Gimp is located under 'file/acquire' from top-menu.

Right, I mean that I tried to verify if xsane worked, was in order. So, 
launching it on its own, outside the gimp I could work with it to acquire an 
image, a fax, etc. So xsane exists  works, isn't out of order. Its the 
combination of xsane  the gimp that doesn't seem to work properly.

Sven, when you launch the gimp, at the very beginning during the booting a 
rectangular box with the word Gimp 2.0 and many running words occupies the 
display. One of those running words is plug-ins and another is xsane. 
This intutevely makes me think that xsane has been detected.

2005-01-30 Thread GSR - FR
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (2005-01-29 at 2134.12 +0100):
 What you have seen is an animation ot the progress you have done in the image.
 Now, how can I save this progress as an animated gif or a set of images for 
 each frame??

Does it have to be one frame per paint stroke? If not, you can try
with some kind of video recorder (xvidcap, vncrec, vnc2swf...), some
can output to separate images and you can always decompose videos into
frames. This last case could be used to select finished strokes,
discarding other intermediate frames, but that would require lot of
manual intervention. As you do not explain the final usage, it is hard
to guess valid solutions.

Sure, that tells you that GIMP sees the plug-in executable and queries
it. It doesn't tell you anything about the results of this query.
Looking at the Plug-In Browser, as I told you, would probably give you
some useful information.

all of this is easier with gimp-gap.  it has copy frames and can also

GSR, what i want is the functionality that oekakis have, and also some paint 
programs, a way to see the development of a painting.
It's very usefull for artists to see how others paint, they can learn just 
watching. And is a great way for sharing techniques.

Recording a video is an extreme solution, but easy to do.


Carol Spears answered me this, about the GAP plugin:

 You are the best GAP promoter!! :)
 I have thinked about doing it in GAP, but what I want is an automated way to 
 do this, saving each undo step automatically. I answered to the list to other 
 person what I'm looking for. Thanks.
 
i have a movie in which every pixel was made by gimp:
http://carol.gimp.org/art/sometrojan/

okay, it is not exactly the truth -- i used a few images from
photographs, but the animation and the bubbles and the Vegetarian
Chicken Ham are pure gimp.

sometimes, the art starts in learning the tools.  in fact, most of those
movies and stories about artists have them struggling to learn the
tools and even shape brushes and quills or what have you themselves.

please consider using the tools you can get for free.  if animation
fails you with the gimp tools that were made for making one image, try
out the tools made for animation.
