I'm not familiar with the gfig-display grid option, but. I thought I was going crazy on this one, cause I could have sworn that this was possible, yet I could not find it in my current install of 1.2.3 gimp on SuSE 8.2. I know I have used such a facility before. I fired gimp up on my Red Hat box, and sure enough, the right click menu has the 'guides' option, which presents the 'guide grid' option which does exactly (I think) what you're looking for. You get a dialog that asks for: x spacing, y spacing, x offset, y offset. Now the question is, where'd it go on 1.2.3 on my SuSE box?

Thanks for the heads up, as I used this to put my wife's newsletter on her website (school teacher). I'll be needing it again in another month. I installed gimpperl-1.21-960 on SuSE 8.2 and I now have my 'grids' menu option back. So, might this help the original poster, or is this not what he/she was looking for?

The feature you are talking about is a hack that uses guides to work around the lack of a real grid in 1.2. It is implemented as a gimp-perl script. Most probably your SuSE installation is missing gimp-perl. BTW: You should really, really update to 1.2.5. I may well do so, but I've just recently upgraded this box to SuSE 8.2, and since it's my primary box, I'm taking things slowly. I was a bit surprised to find the same version of gimp on SuSE 8.2 and Red Hat 7.3... -- Until later: Geoffrey [EMAIL PROTECTED] The latest, most widespread virus? Microsoft end user agreement.

Re: [Gimp-user] need gimp grid
filters - render - pattern - grid. There is a bug up to gimp 1.2.3, in which the horizontal and vertical spacing inputs are swapped. Still usable, though. As for the axis, you will have to draw them by hand in GIMP. Depending on your needs with axis and such, maybe you shold take a look at GNUplot instead.

Further would be cool if i could get x and y axis's plotted all the way to the middle. ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
