[Gimp-user] Size of "new" picture after selection gimp 2.2 vs. 2.3
Dear All, In gimp 2.2 when I selected a rectangle, and after that selected a new picture using ctrl-n, the size of the new picture was the the size of the selected triangle, which was very handy. In gimp 2.3, the size of the new picture is fixed, and is not related to the selected rectangle; this forces the user to find out the rectangle's size, and set up the right size manually, which is clearly a step backwards. Will this be improved (as it was in 2.2) in a new version? -eleonora -- "Feel free" - 10 GB Mailbox, 100 FreeSMS/Monat ...

[Gimp-user] Color of pencil and eraser (rubber gum)
Dear List, I'd like to have my eraser and my pencil to be white. At present my eraser is sometimes white, sometimes gray, my pencil is black, and after I select color chooser to white it turns white. How to set them permanently to a certain color? Thanks, eleonora -- "Feel free" - 5 GB Mailbox, 50 FreeSMS/Monat ...

Re: [Gimp-user] export and save as gif dialogs
Hello, I use SF-WHATEVER, I just had a typo in the email. The complete script is my previous email and also attached to this email. I test by copying the script into /home/en/.gimp-2.2/scripts, and then do a refresh from gimp/Xtns menu. A reference script copied from /usr/share/gimp/2.0/scripts works perfectly; however not a single scm script does file operations. I suspect, that file operations simply do not work with scm. That what the tutorial implicates. -eleonora > > > With SF_STRING or SF_FILENAME the error remains the same. > > Error: unbound variable (errobj /tmp/x.gif) > > Use SF-STRING or SF-FILENAME, not SF_STRING, SF_FILENAME. > > If that does not fix your problem then post your script; it is > difficult to find bugs when only fragments of code are provided. > > ___ > Gimp-user mailing list > Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU > https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user -- GMX Kostenlose Spiele: Einfach online spielen und Spaß haben mit Pastry Passion! http://games.entertainment.gmx.net/de/entertainment/games/free/puzzle/6169196 ; The GIMP -- an image manipulation program ; Copyright (C) 1995 Spencer Kimball and Peter Mattis ; ; Glogo Simple --- save as simple as possible an image as Linux Boot Logo ; Based on Jens Ch.

A generous offer. Thanks in advance. All I need is: I do not work with layers, just with gif pictures. I select part of a gif picture and put it into clipboard, then create a new gif picture. (2-nd menu column: create new picture). So far everything I do manually. Now: I'd like to write that new picture into a file I give the name, as a gif file. It should not ask any questions, after it knows the file name, it should write out straighforward the gif file. That's all. At present I write out hundreds of such little pictures, and at each time after ctrl-s standard gimp asks 2 stupid questions I answer with yes, and that takes a lot of in fact for me useless mouseclicks. I'd like to speed up my procedure by that script.

No. Picture 2 is derived from the page number where it is, for example the first image on page 3248 of picture 100.gif is called 32481.gif, picture2 32482.gif, etc... page number is contained by the original picture, and has nothing to do with it's name. Original picture is called in the example 100.gif, and the derived pictures are called 32481.gif, 32482.gif and 32491.gif To find the proper name is job for a human, the machine can not effectively help there. > #2.

I.e., > you make your selection and then run the script -- the new image is > opened (if necessary) and then saved as a GIF. The script is unable to create the images. They must be created manually. They are pictures in written text, and only a human can decide, which parts are images and which parts are text. The selected part then usually gets modified in size and also sometimes rotated. All jobs, only a human can do properly. I checked with the most up-to-date ocr programs, they do a lousy job when they try to find out, which parts are pictures and which are text. They err in 20-30% of the cases, which is completely unacceptable and unusable for me. > Of course, doing precisely what you described is possible; it just > entails some steps that might better be automated.

Re: [Gimp-user] export and save as gif dialogs
Saul, Thanks! When I try to save a file, I get following error message (2 messages on one window): 1. there are not enough layers marked as 'Visible' to do the function 'join visible layers'. There must be at least 2 layers. 2. script-fu error when executing sg-fast-save 3.6 /tmp/Untitled.gif Error: procedural database execution failed (gimp_image_merge_visible_layers 5.0) I then added a layer (ctrl-l, duplicate layer) and then the script saved correctly /tmp/Untitled.gif.
