The plug-in API is backward compatible. All plug-ins that worked with
GIMP 2.0 or GIMP 2.2 are going to work with GIMP 2.4. There are some
issues with old scripts though. But it shouldn't be much of a problem to
update them (see http://gimp.org/docs/script-fu-update.html).

Hi Jeff,

we are working hard to update the manual at http://docs.gimp.org/en  
as fast as we possible, some of the new features are described  
already, others are still on the list...

Remember: There are only two tools in life. WD-40, for when something  
doesn't move, and should, and Duct Tape, for when something is moving  
and it shouldn't.
So does the universe explode if you spray duct tape with WD-40?

Re: [Gimp-user] colour to black and white

2007-10-26 Thread norman

 You might try creating a new white layer and placing it at the bottom  
 of the layerstack to show the regions where your image is transparent.
 
At last I am beginning to understand. The white shows where before there
was the grey and white squares layer. Brilliant thank you.

Can't recall having seen the docs but these features did do stuff
when I whipped the Win32 edition into life this afternoon (hello
from GMT+10+DST).

Axel:

Thanks for the update.  I missed ther manual at this site and was instead
reviewing the online help that was shipped with the 2.3 development versions
of the program.

Is there a convenient way to download a snapshot of the current manual?  I
don't see any option on the documentation or the downloads page.

Thanks.

http://docs.gimp.org/ has a quite prominent download link.

[Gimp-user] THE ALMIGHTY ALT KEY

2007-10-26 Thread ryanb
Why .. . Why, I ask you, on this Green Earth was the ALT Key revoked  
of it's power?

I used to zoom around the editor, modifying my selections with the  
stroke of a key, but now .. . I feel like 3+ years of experience had  
been undone, and now I am back to square one .. .

Yes, I may be exaggerating a little bit, but please bring back the ALT  
functionality for rectangular and oval selection tools!!! For now, I  
am going back to GIMP 2.2.

[Gimp-user] compiling woes

2007-10-26 Thread Elwin Estle
I am attempting to compile 2.4 on a fresh Slackware 12.0 install.  When I run
./configure, I get a message at the end about needing pygtk, but I have pygtk 
installed
and the version number is high enough.  Do I need some kind of development 
headers and if
so, where do I get them?

Make sure you have pkg-config installed and your PyGTK installation is 
setup with the .rc file in the right place.  I believe the Gimp build 
process uses pkg-config to sniff out the various versions of the 
support libraries it needs.  You just might need the PyGTK development 
packages installed if your pkg-config installation is good.

Peace...

You will need the development package. Called python-gtk-dev on this
Ubuntu system, can't help with slackware nomenclature
