[Gimp-user] Help with script
Sorry, i got another question. I want to find the width of each character by essentially cropping the cell. But this bit of code in the script saulgoode gave me: (gimp-rect-select image x y width height ...) (set! bounds (gimp-selection-bounds image)) just seems to get the width and height of the selection, which is obviously known since it's used to set the selection in the first place! So is there a function to crop the selection or will i have to copy it to a new layer? -- none ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

The installer tries to set up environment in such way that GIMP-2.0\bin directory is first in PATH when plugins and extensions are started (this is done through Registry and GIMP's global configuration files). If you aren't using any other GTK+ application, uninstall GTK+ completely, and just let GIMP use GTK+ that ships with it. So looking through the registry, I find some keys that GIMP failed to clean up upon uninstalling... HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\gimp-2.6.exe HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Applications\gimp-win-remote.exe These keys weren't created by the installer, so it can't remove them (GIMP itself doesn't use registry). My guess is that they were created by Explorer when manipulating file associations through it. I probably need to run something to get the system to do a REGISTRY RELOAD.

If you let Ubuntu do it for you, then you have to accept the limitations that come with that.

Why not just upgrade to 8.10? Gimp is what motivated me to do that, and it was pretty darn painless. Btw, the Ubuntu releases are Year.Month, so there can't be an 8.20.

UNIX filenames can have pipes, greater-than signs, dollar signs, etc; the only two byte values that aren't allowed in a UNIX filename are zero and '/'. It's only the shell that adds special meaning to those other characters, and the shell is not involved with Gimp's saving of an image. Once I have Gimp::Image, I would love get the binary data that is the image and do with it as I please. Well, the binary image data doesn't exist in gimp's memory in that form; it's created by the save handler for the particular file format. I don't know if there's a way in script-fu (Scheme, Perl, or other) to have the save handler 'save' to something other than a file; someone else may have a better pointer there. -- Mark J.
