[Gimp-user] script-autocrop
I'm calling gimp on the windows-shell: - cd c:\temp c:\Programme\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-2.6.exe --batch-interpreter plug-in-script-fu-eval -i -d -b "(script-autocrop '24789232_1.jpg')" -b "(gimp-quit 0)" - output: - GIMP-Error: ?c:\temp\'24789232_1.jpg')'' 1/2 : No such file or directory GIMP-Error: ?c:\temp\0)'' 1/2 : No such file or directory batch command executed successfully batch command executed successfully - OS: winxp Gimp-Version: 2.6.4. What is wrong with my call? Thanks for help in advance Nico P.S.: a call like c:\Programme\GIMP-2.0\bin>c:\Programme\GIMP-2.0\bin\gimp-console-2.6.exe --batch-interpreter plug-in-script-fu-eval -i -d -b "(script-autocrop \"c:/temp/24789232_1.jpg\")" -b "(gimp-quit 0)" doesn't work too. Error-output: batch command experienced an execution error ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Plug-in G'MIC for GIMP
Hi everyone, I would like to make a short announcement here. We have released a new plug-in for GIMP, named G'MIC which may be interesting for some users (at least, it is what we hope). Here is the URL : http://gmic.sourceforge.net/gimp.shtml This plug-in proposes a list of various effects that can be applied on images, including artistic filters, image denoising and enhancements, 3D rendering effects, and so on... The main property of this plug-in is that it contains an interpreter of image processing macros, and all the available filters are written in fact in a very short form (usually in three of four lines of code), using a simple macro-based language (the "G'MIC" language). Consequently, any user can add his own filter definitions in the plug-in (written in "G'MIC" in a simple text file). The plug-in is also capable of updating itself, without reinstallation needed (it just download a G'MIC updated macro file and put it in your home directory). So, this is a plug-in that is a little bit special since it is clearly intended to be open and extensible without having deep knowledges in C, script-fu or Python programming languages. Here is an example of how the current filters are defined, as a G'MIC macro file : http://gmic.sourceforge.net/.gmic4gimp_def Well, that's it. I hope this will interest you in some way.

[Gimp-user] [GSoC] Google Summer of Code 2009
Hi, Google has announced that they are going to do the Google Summer of Code program in 2009. Leslie Hawthorn - readers of the SoC mailing list will know about her - has suggested that organizations should start to announce whether they are going to apply this year. One of the most important reasons for announcing early is reaching possible candidates - students who are interested in participating, and want to know an organization a bit better before committing themselves to a project. So, there is at least one thing that will be certain: GIMP is going to apply for Google Summer of Code again! === Beyond this, everything is tentative: It is fully within our responsibility to come up with a superb application, mentors (I've already asked a few people on IRC) and suitable projects. It is within Google's responsibility to select the organizations with the best applications. No time line has been announced yet; the number of organizations and projects to be accepted is going to be a bit smaller than last year. As a summary, this is how GSoC went last year: In 2008, a total of four projects have been completed. They are either in SVN Trunk already or are currently being added into it. Three projects for GIMP: *Improving the text-tool in GIMP by Daniel Eddeland* "Although the text-tool in GIMP works right now, it could be even better and more convenient with more functionality. When editing text you type the text in a dialog instead of on the canvas itself. I found "on-canvas text editing" as one of the ideas listed on the GIMP GSoC ideas page, and thought it would be a good idea to implement, as it would make the text tool more ergonomic and also look a little better (less dialogs to keep track off = cleaner interface)." *Enhance Python Scripting Interface Experience by Lars-Peter Clausen* "The overall goal of this project is to enhance the python scripting interface experience for The GIMP. As part of this I'll creating binding for gimp objects and widgets that haven't a binding yet but would be useful to have in python scripts. I'll also in collaboration with the community identify other missing or nice to have aspects in the python scripting interface and then try add them." *Tagging of GIMP Resources by Aurimas Juska* "Currently resources such as brushes, gradients, etc are presented to the user in a single list without a possibility to organize them in any way. This makes it impossible to deal with large number of resources efficiently, thus making the GIMP less attractive for both professional and casual users. Adding tags to resources is natural and convenient way for users to organize their collection of resources so they could quickly find the ones they want for the specific task and create their own collections easily." ... and one project for GEGL: *Operations in Frequency Domain by Zhang Junbo* "Many of the image processing operations in the spatial domain are very difficult or even impossible, but in the frequency domain it may be quite simple. But GEGL, the new framework of GIMP, has not support operations in frequency domain yet. Therefore, a collection of operations in frequency domain for GEGL is urgently needed. A good framework has been provided in GEGL. Operations(plug-ins) in frequency domain could be implemented modularly."

Pardon the delayed response. I get the gist of what you're saying, and that's what I tried to do from the get-go. What I mean is that when re-open a file from gimp I can't seem to "select" the text, which I previously wrote and inserted, to delete or modify it. -Thufir ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
[Gimp-user] Resynthesizer
Hi! I remember the plugin from the subject but I didn't find it for the GIMP 2.6. Are the plugins that do the same job, please?

An important thing to note: when you've opened the PDF in GIMP, the vector and text information is lost - you've "ripped" it into an image, and at that point you will have to treat it as an image (as opposed to a PDF). The size and res dialog you see when opening a PDF determines what quality the resulting image will be. You can almost think of it as "printing to an image" as opposed to printing to a physical printer. Hope that makes sense.

Yes - resynthesizer. (I'm not joking, I'm using it right now.) This type of problem is brought up frequently here and on the gimp-developer mailing list, usually by people running GIMP under Windows. Often, the compiled version of the plug-in is not up-to-date, or is compiled for an older version of GIMP. I suggest asking the author (Paul Harrison) of the plug-in about this, if the version of resynthesizer provided on the homepage (http://www.logarithmic.net/pfh/resynthesizer) does not work for you.
