Hi, Tagging of Gimp Resources project is an attempt to make it easy and efficient to organize Gimp resources (brushes, patterns, gradients, palettes). Currently the project is already somewhat usable, allowing user to assign tags, filter resources on selected tags, preserve tags between session and more.
Screenshots [1] and [2] show how resource (brush, etc) docks look. As you can see, there are two tag entries: the one on top is to filter based on selected tags, on the bottom is for tag assignment. Tags can be typed with keyboard [1] (specifically for tagging a special autocompletion was implemented: autocompletes tags even in the middle of tag list, doesn't offer already selected tags, etc) and selected with some pointing device [2] (popup window stays open to allow multiple tag selection, it can be closed by clicking somewhere outside). Tags cache is stored in tag cache file (~/.gimp-2.5/.tag-cache.xml). The file is user editable, but that is normally not needed. Should user rename or move resource file(s) (brushes, etc), tag cache would detect changes based on file contents and correctly remap tags. Source code is available: svn://svn.gnome.org/svn/gimp/branches/soc-2008-tagging. Questions, comments and recommendations are appreciated.
