[Gimp-user] Help scripting transform and copy/paste for photobooth automation?

2009-12-08 Thread Jason Yau
All, I'm new to script-fu, and brushing up on my rusty Scheme, which I haven't used in about 15 years! I'm trying to write a script that will help me automate creating a photobooth-like experience. I have a template with a space for 4 images, and some captured images that I want to scale down

I'm not sure, but it seems like rather than the areas outside of selection being affected, not all of the selected area is becoming transparent. I used the paint bucket (which is set to 100% opacity) to fill the selection in the layer mask (which is acting as the alpha channel) with white.

Just out of curiosity, do you know if the game engine you're using is expecting a premultiplied or non-premultiplied alpha channel? My assumption would be the former, but I figured I'd ask to be sure. Jason frustrated1 for...@gimpusers.com wrote: I'm not sure, but it seems like rather than
