Yeah, I'm cool with mentoring.

It's all at:

http://developer.gimp.org/api/2.0/libgimp/index.html

The API for existing functions does not change within the 2.x releases.
Functions that are new in 2.4 will be marked "Since 2.4" at the
bottom of their description.

Yes. Use the pdb browser plugin found under /Xtns in the toolbox.

[Gimp-developer] gimp_patterns_get_list

2008-03-10 Thread Andrei Simion
Hi,

I have the following problem: when calling gimp_patterns_get_list on the 
Gimp server, version 2.2 I got an error:

"not enough arguments for function 'gimp_patterns_get_list'"

The function works on the Gimp server, version 1.2.

I checked here: http://hans.breuer.org/gimp/pdb/alphabetic.html and it 
appears I can call it with no parameters.

Can somebody point to the list of functions that can be used on Gimp 2.2?

Thanks,
Andrei

It's great to see all this talent and enthusiasm going into creating
Gimp stuff.  The Gimp web page doesn't really have a place to put
these, but I think it would be very nice if you made the best ones
easily available to your users on your web page.  (My favorite is
#17, except for the word "professional".)

If I'm pointed to a profiling tool for Win and docs, I could try to do it ;-)

(Considering this initial step is a non-programmer's task)

It takes about 10 seconds to start it for the first time on my
machine, later it's up in about 4 seconds. About a quarter of this
time is spent starting script-fu.

[Gimp-developer] Splash Screens GIMP 2.6 from Dutch GIMPers

2008-03-10 Thread Leendert Visser
Hi everyone,

The members of our Dutch GIMPclub (http://www.dutchgimpers.nl/) have made
splashscreens for GIMP 2.6 in a battle.

You can find the winners here:
 http://dutchgimpers.nl/viewpage.php?page_id=3D11

You can freely use this Splash Screens.

If it is so much slower on Windows, why hasn't anyone profiled the
startup phase on Windows and pointed out where this time is spent?

How so? This is really something that can be implemented in about ten
lines of code. Most of this code will be Script-Fu specific. So I don't
see how this could be part of any GIMP library.

That is indeed the more difficult question here. Besides the question
whether such static example images would be useful at all. The easiest
solution is probably to put it inside the scripts UI window similar to
how plug-ins place their previews.

This actually already exists in trunk with the GimpTagged interface. But
it's probably OK to keep it here as a task.

I would be willing to mentor this project.

I would also mentor this one, but I can definitely not mentor two
projects.

>  Properly map Gimp Widgets and objects to Python 

Instead of mapping GIMP widgets to Python directly, it would probably
make more sense to make sure that GIMP widgets are GtkBuildable. The
GtkBuildableIface interface contains method that are necessary to allow
GtkBuilder to construct an object from a GtkBuilder UI definition. This
would make it a lot easier to write GIMP plug-ins as developers would
have less hassle with UI code.

I don't think that SVG brushes is enough for a GSoC project. Adding a
loader for SVG brushes can easily be done over a weeekend. What would
make this a lot more interesting is to add the infrastructure in the
paint core to actually make use of transformable brushes.

We aren't talking about an extra window here. Please don't call it an
"no image window". It's the image window, just in a special state where
it doesn't show an image because no image is currently opened. At least
that's how I understand the idea...

It takes ~7 sec on my 4 years old laptop (running Linux, a top model

[Gimp-developer] GSOC 2008 mentors list deadline

2008-03-10 Thread Joao S. O. Bueno
Hi -

this is just to tell you that I was planning to submit GIMP's 
application to GSOC tonight (/me at GMT -3). 

I am checking the google-bureaucracy, and the list of GSOC mentors 
should also be provided with this application.

We have no "offcial" mentors yet, but for Pippin for GEGL, Udi for 
UFRaw, Yosh and me (I am not even sure if Yosh would pick it), for 
gimp-python.

Since tehre is no more time for the application (ok - teh deadline is 
12th, so I could wait to until tomorrow), we need a list of people 
willing to be mentors today.

Waiting for volunteers to setp ahead might take a while, so I am 
inviting ome developers here by name. If you thinkyou could mentor a 
project, please tell me so.

Also, google needs mentors to have a google e-mail account. Since the 
deadline is this close, please tell me your google mail account (or a 
new one) to me.

That said, can I enlist you as Google Summer of Code 2008 mentors?

- Mitch?

- Sven? 

- Simon?

- Yosh? 

- Bill? 

- Tor? 

- Enselic? 

- Kevin? 

Any other developer willing is mostly welcome.  I am directly inviting 
the people above because I'd be really improtant to have this list 
today.

Regards!
