Re: [Gimp-user] Mouse Click Coordinates
Sven, you're the guru, so you would know. However, how is it that I can't get the coordinates, when apparantly something like the crop tool can? Is the crop tool specially written using internal gimp facilities that aren't available to a normal add-in?

Re: [Gimp-user] Mouse Click Coordinates
I have another question - is it possible through settings to make GIMP to display the size of rectangular selection, excluding non-image area? Current realization displays the size of the whole selection, even if the part of the selection is outside image boundaries. If it's impossible, should I fill an issue?

I assumed you meant a plug-in and the crop tool, like all other tools, is completely implemented in the core.

Hi Kevin, Kevin Myers wrote: However, how is it that I can't get the coordinates, when apparantly something like the crop tool can? Is the crop tool specially written using internal gimp facilities that aren't available to a normal add-in? This is the difference between a tool and a plug-in. A tool is something which (usually) operates locally on the basis of a mouse click (the colour tools are the exceptions, which often causes some confusion). A plug-in usually gets a copy of a drawable to work on, and doesn't have access to things like mouse click events which are captured and treated in the core.

Ok, I've posted a bug.

[Gimp-user] Mouse Click Coordinates
Hello, Is there any way that I can write a GIMP add-in that can obtain the coordinates of user mouse clicks in the main GIMP image window? My add-in needs the user to be able to click on specific locations within the main image window in order to obtain various coordinates for subsequent processing. Thanks, s/KAM
