Re: [Gimp-user] Workflow through scripting (Jan Kandziora)



Ahhhh!!!! Now you are talking. So I can download the source code and tweak
it to my purposes using the C language? Is it that simple? Is it that easy?


Is there a documentation on the source code? Where is what? The
architecture? I mean it often takes longer to know where to write the code
than actually write it. Is there a way to ease this stage?


I suppose there are many forums dedicated to this subject. Do you have a
favorite one?

And many thanks for this answer. It is a big step towards my goal. As you
know the first steps are always the most difficult ones.

The problem is when I google  let's say "tweaking the source code Gimp" I
get a lot of ready made tools but I can't find the people who are actually
coding.

John, if you aren't afraid of coding, there's NOTHING you cannot
add/remove/change in GIMP. It's a free software, sources are available
and you can alter them yourself and compile your very own GIMP.

This isn't too simple but still a feasible approach.

The reason why the UI isn't accessible through scripting is because it
haven't scratched the itch of anybody yet. The people who want UI
changes very badly do patch their GIMP themselves.

Kind regards

that I
did not have an active but hidden selection, that pixels were not

transparency was not protected.

I tried opening a new image and discovered that the paint tools are also
locked
up for that image as well. I am at a complete loss. Any ideas?

The first two things I would do is:

1. Check brush tools' settings like blend mode and opacity.
2. Check foreground color.

Subject: [Gimp-user] how to do this
Message-ID: <84193 forums gimpusers com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

Hello,

I want to print a texture from the game Minecraft, the creeper texture.  I
have
an image file, I attached it.

I want to cut out each section of the texture and print them each at a
specific
size/scale on 8.5"x11" paper.

For example I selected and copied the face and pasted in to a new image.

How should I set the image size and canvas size and other options such
that the
face will print out on the paper at 5" square?

How should I do this?  I want it to be fairly precise.

Thanks!

Hi, I hope someone can help.

Sorry if this has already been asked, I couldn't find anything similar
in the forums but might have missed something.

Is it possible to make a gif where two different things move at two
different
speeds?
For example if I was animating a dragon, is there a way to make its wings
to move at one speed (looped) while its eyes blink at a faster speed?

I keep wanting to make two Layer Groups so I can animate things
separately, but
know
this won't work since Gimp can't animate layers in Groups. Any advice would
be greatly appreciated.

Message-ID: <84206 forums gimpusers com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8

So I decided I wanted to start using my graphics tablet that I got.

Opened up GIMP, and doodled a little bit. I realized something was off
with how
it felt.
I tried writing... and my 'a''s looked weird. They all were straight at
the top
where I start writing them.

Is this some kind of setting for graphics tablets? It's rather annoying,
especially when trying to write something or sketch and leaves big gaps in
the
sketches.

Yes, I made sure I was using the pencil/paintbrush/airbrush tool. I don't
even
know if there is a tool for straight lines like in PDN :\

Edit:
I have noticed that this is occuring with PDN too.
Does anyone know how to fix this issue?

There is only one frame rate in animated GIFs. When you need different
speeds for different parts of an animation, you need to double/triple
and so on the "slow" frames, while animating the fast parts in it.


For example if I was animating a dragon, is there a way to make its wings
to move at one speed (looped) while its eyes blink at a faster speed?

Basically, do this:

frame 0: wings up   - eyes open
frame 1: wings up   - eyes closed
frame 2: wings down - eyes open
frame 3: wings down - eyes closed
loop


I keep wanting to make two Layer Groups so I can animate things
separately, but
know this won't work since Gimp can't animate layers in Groups. Any
advice would
be greatly appreciated.

Again, I recommend ImageMagick to do that duplication and animation work
for you, see this example:

http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/anim_mods/#composite

It first creates a coalesced_k.gif (a full frame/non-optimizied gif),
then makes a shadows_k.gif from the original one -only for demonstration
purposes, could be any "background" animation, e.g. your winged dragon-,
then compose that background animation with the original coalesced_k.gif
to compose_shadow.gif.

(gif_anim_montage is just a script which created the strip at the bottom
of the tutorial step)

You are done!

Okay, if you want to do that wing flapping at a slower speed, you first
had to double each frame within the gif. That's a bit trickier:

http://www.imagemagick.org/discourse-server/viewtopic.php?p=50325#p41868

Hope that helps.

Kind regards

        Jan
