Re: [Gimp-user] export and save as gif dialogs
It seems to be not possible to write such a script. Why? I use debian. I do not have gimptool installed, which is part of libgimp2.0-dev, which is not installed on my system. According to documentation gimptool is required for adding gimp scripts. I asked synaptic, to install it; synaptic says, at least 40 packages had to be deinstalled and reinstalled for this, including kdelibs4-dev and kde-sdk. I am worried to get my complete system down due to this package, therefore I think, it will be not possible, to write that gimp script. What do you think?

Why don't you write yourself a simple script that does steps 2 to 5 and only asks for the filename? Should be doable in a few lines of Python or Script-Fu.

Re: [Gimp-user] export and save as gif dialogs
Thanks, Simon. I'll try to replace gimptool by some self written script.

Ok, that seems a bit messed up - installing libgimp-dev should be painless, but maybe there are some odd version mismatches or whatever. You're probably right in not trying to install libgimp-dev if it has these consequences. Maybe ask in a forum for your distribution what should be done there... According to documentation gimptool is required for adding gimp scripts. It is not required, it has a convenience function for script-fu scripts. You can as well just copy your script-fu-script to ~/.gimp-2.x/scripts/ . Simon ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

Sven, Thanks for the tip. I'll try to write such a script; I have absolutely no experience with that, but hopefully I'll be able to write that.

[Gimp-user] export and save as gif dialogs
Hi, I have to save parts of images. I do: 1. select image part using rectangle, ctrl c for put into clipboard 2. insert as new picture (menu, second from left) 3. ctrl-s (save as gif, enter name: name.gif ) 4. answer export with yes 5. answer save as gif with yes. Since I have to save hundreds of picture parts as new pictures, it is really cumbersome and senseless for me to answer the export and save as gif questions (4 and 5) every time. Is there a way to configure gimp in order to avoid those two queries? Any idea to simplify the procedure is welcome.

RE: [Gimp-user] Colored emboss
Gary, Thank you (and every one else who replied, either directly or by this list) very much. This works great. ERwin Hi, I want to create an image as if a text were 'embossed' in a colored sheet of paper... snipped Short answer: Bump Map (Filters-Map-Bump Map) Long Answer: 1. New image. 2. Add two layers a. Layer Paper Midtone gray (#88) or unsaturated color tint (say #88 for an unsaturated yellow) b. Layer Text Black on white 3. Blur Text layer slightly (approximately 5 pixels, starting value) 4. Make Paper Active layer 5. Filters-Map-Bump Map... 6. In dialog, Select Text layer for Bump Map: Parameter setting. 7. Use scroll bars to pan around Paper layer preview, until you locate text image 8. Experiment with other parameters 9. Hit OK when you've got it. Have fun. And remember, there's always more than one way to do it. Garry ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
