Re: [Gimp-user] How to input multiple lines of text onto seperate photos

["Rick Strong" <rnstrong primus ca>]

However GIMP defines it relative to the coordinates of the given box, I 
guess. I could script it in PageMaker, Corel Draw, InDesign, and MS Word.

What is the current scripting system in GIMP?

The devils is in the details...  In "place it here":

    what is "it": the center? a corner (which)? the baseline? the
middle of the uppercase characters?
    and what is "here"? Absolute coordinates? The center of the
picture? A corner? Relative to the whole image or to a specific layer?

By the time you have covered most use cases, you have something like the
current script system...
