Hello, "Guillermo S. Romero / Familia Romero" wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2001-01-13 at 2200.57 +0100): So what must I do to get it working? Check that in "Toolbox / Preferences / Session / Window Positions" you have "Save Window Positions on Exit" and "Always Try to Restore Session" set. And check that FVWM2 has "UsePPosition" instead of "NoPPosition" in Gimp's windows "Style"s (IIRC, cos I have not used FVWM2 for some time, so it may need some extra settings). Thanks, that's it! I just changed the line Style "*" NoPPosition into STyle "*" UsePPosition in my $HOME/.fvwm2rc. Now it works fine!

Re: Thumbnailing + adding text
Hello Manuel,

I have a bunch of photographs and I want to get reduced versions

" Copyright 2000 . Manuel Gutier..."
to the bottom of each photograph.
I'm running a standard Red Hat 6.2 box, with standard gimp.
Which commands/plugins of gimp allow me to achieve these effects ?
AFAKI there is no special plugin yet for doing these things. But that
doesn't mean that you can't write one yourself. :-)
But I think that the possibilities of batch prosessing with Gimp are not
very well developed at the moment. So I would use convert of this. In
combination with find it is a very powerful tool.
Example: To create a thumbnail of every picture in a directory (every
png one), just use:
find -name "*.png" -exec convert -geometry 25%x25% {} {}.thumb.png \;
If you read 'man convert' there are many options, including drawing and
adding text to a picture.

session managment?
Hi, I heard that Gimp has it's own session managment, i.e. the windows are placed at the same positions I placed them bevore I closed the gimp. This doesn't work on my computer (SuSE 7.0 and Gimp 1.2). What must I do to get it right?

Hello, "Guillermo S. Romero / Familia Romero" wrote: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (2001-01-13 at 1956.08 +0100): I am pretty sure that the window manager can override the gimps windows. When my gimp window problems irritate me enough, that's where I am going to start, with the window manager. No, I think not. Gimp should be able to place the windows itself. That just some kind of geometry setting, isn't it? IIRC window manager can force anything into apps, and X into window manager. So decission chain from who has more power to less is X - wm - app. If you save position with window manager, then app will be unable to put window where it wants (and similar for size, colors and other things). Ok, so this is a problem of fvwm2?

session managment / brushes
Hello, I used the gimp version 1.1.27 and today i downloaded the version 1.1.29. In both versions, the session managment with the windows doesn't work on my computer. The option is enabled in the settings of course. I also tried to delete the actual settings, but that doesn't help. Another problem I have is that the brushes seem not to work correct. When I choose colored brushes they only work with teh colours, but arround I get a black area. Brushes with different gray values get completly black. Do I simply use Gimp wrong? Or are these bugs/features? My system: SuSE 7.0 XFree 4.x fvwm 2 Bye, Jan -- ETES - Espenhain Theofel EDV-Systeme GbR ACHTUNG - NEUE ADRESSE! ACHTUNG - NEUE ADRESSE!
