[Gimp-developer] GIMP FxFoundry using GEGL?

2012-05-02 Thread gfxuser

Hi,

lately I found this very promising plug-in collection made by two 
well-known persons of this list ;-)
Will or need the plug-ins therein be ported to GEGL or do they use GEGL 
out of the box through the reworked PDP API?


Thanks,
grafxuser

GIMP-s plugin appi is not slated to change afaik, and fx foundry is

 Dear Friend,
 
 I am writing to you on behalf of OpenLX Linux distribution.
 Launched in 2005, OpenLX Linux has users in over 30 countries with over
 2,00,000 downloads so far. OpenLX Linux is free to download and earlier
 versions are available at www.openlx.com
 The next version will also be available for free download from internet.
 
 We would like to add your application ( GIMP 2.6.12 ) to the next version
 of OpenLX Linux.
 
 
 Please let us know if there is any objection to this, or if it requires any
 agreement between you and us for doing this.
 

Since GIMP is free and open source software (FOSS -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open_source_software ), under the GPL 
licence, 
you are allowed to distribute it as part of your distribution, as long as you
make any downstream changes to the source code available.

Note that a new major version of GIMP - 2.8.0 will be released soon.

Regards,

Shlomi Fish

Re: [Gimp-developer] [Demo] Porting MyPaint brush engines to the GIMP.

2012-05-02 Thread sigetch
2012/5/1 gfxuser gfx.u...@online.de:
 Hi,

 It's not about the settings of the brush itself, it's about reusing
 brushes and their corresponding settings. For example: I use a knife to add
 color to a painting, then i use a knife without color to refine details and
 then i use the knife with color again. Switching between the two brushes can
 be done in MyPaint with one click or hotkey. But what will you do in Gimp?

 have you heard of GIMPs already existing abilities to save and load presets?
 They are in version 2.6.12, but they have already been for longer time in
 GIMP.
 You find them at the bottom of each tools' window, like the brush dialog.
 There are disc icons to save, load, delete and reset tool presets. The
 stored settings contain the particular tool settings as well as the color. I
 just tried it out. Also the small triangle icon in the upper right corner of
 the tools dialogs offers these abilities.
 There are also many ready-to-use tool presets and brushes for instance at
 http://browse.deviantart.com/resources/applications/gimpbrushes/?order=9,
 which can be very useful.

The solution is not so simple. Tool presets works fine until 2.6
series when all brush
dynamics are implemented as a tool options, but since the introduce of
dynamics,
you cannot remember and restore all of the presets by tool presets.

For example, assume tool-preset-A and tool-preset-B are sharing same dynamics-A.
When you choose tool-preset-A, dynamics-A is selected as its dynamics, then
change the value in dynamics-A, and save it. The operation lead to the
change of
behavior of tool-preset-B because it also uses dynamics-A.

So, to avoid the confusion, you should separate the dynamics  used by
tool-preset-A
from one used by tool-preset-B. and when you define the new tool
preset, you should
also define the new dynamics too.

I was very annoyed by the complicated tool preset management, and that
is one of
the biggest reason to abandon the current dynamics implementation and introduce
the MyPaint brushlib into the GIMP.

 by the way...is gimp going to borrow some memory management from 
 mypaint? I worked with  a .png of 15 000 px X 8000 px, on my computer 
 with 2 gb ram,
 and it works smoothly in mypaint, but gimp eats all my ram, and all the 
 swap space.

I've not had that problem, and often work with images that size or
larger. It helps to define the tile cache size (in edit/prefs) to be at
least three quarters of available memory, maybe more - e.g. I have it
set to 7 gigabytes on an 8G machine. You can also get big speedups by
going to the undo history dock and clicking on the discard undo
history button fairly often.


 Is Gimp going to use in the future the .ora format, or it will remain to 
 the .xcf?

Don't know. I'm sure .xcf will continue to be supported as much as
possible.
