I wanted to test myself first to be sure it fixed the issue. And it does. I just tested on my master build. :-) So that's indeed the problem and its solution. > At the time I fixed this, Jernej's builds did not exhibit the problem > because they used an older version of fontconfig.

Yes I am not sure if upstream or else, but definitely somethings should be done *somewhere*, otherwise we might have various new developers to the team (or the same ones, forgetting it happened already) scratching their head with this problem every 6 months. The simple fact that the last Windows build is broken even though you had this fixed from before this release is a sign there should be something in place for this to not happen again. :-) Thanks!

[Gimp-developer] GSoC PSD Project Summary
Hello everyone. GSoC officially ended on Monday so I wanted to summarize the list of things that I was able to do during the project: 1.) Documentation was updated to reflect updated specifications from Adobe inside the plugin. 2.) Plugin was ported to use GEGL 3.) > 8 bit color depth PSD files support was added. 4.) Parsing support for layer effects which can't be implemented yet. 5.) Header code changes including structures for slices and text which can't be implemented yet. I wasn't active in the mailing list but I was able to talk with some of you on IRC. This was my first time contributing code to an open source project, and although I was slow at times in terms of getting commits in, I was still able to get help from everyone. >From here on out, I plan to be able to learn more and contribute more to the project as a whole. Many thanks to everyone for letting me work on this project and for having the patience and kindness to work with me.

It's converting fine from shell (other than black background) via: gimp -i -b '( svg-to-raster "special_areas.svg" "special_areas.png" 72 0 0)' -b '(gimp-quit 0)' Completely different solution; Use gimp-vectors-import-from-file to import a path form a SVG, then create a layer, fill with black, and stroke the path after setting the foreground to the color of your choice. However this will get your something antialiased. The same without anti-aliasing: stroke the path on a transparent layer, then threshold the alpha channel. Improvement on your solution: - Once you have the path on the transparent layer, alpha lock the layer and bucket fill with the final color - Inset black layer below. ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

Hey Mika, It's great to see you person share my needs as well. I built Tito for GIMP a couple of years ago for the same purpose. Here is a demo: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0PuH1LFWhA I even blogged about it: http://sriharisriraman.in/blog/2013/09/15/gimp-tito Good thing is that Jehan is now helping in getting this into master.

[Gimp-developer] Enhancement request GIMP "Search for all commands"
Hello Gimp Developers, I have been using GIMP for some time. I'm using it for logos, cards, photo editing etc. I as many others at my workplace I find it a bit hard to find the correct tool for a certain job. GIMP's overwhelming collection of tools is a bit hard to search through with mouse in the big menu structure. I got to thinking that there is a great solution for this in a coding IDE I use for work. Its global command and action search. I am talking about IntelliJ IDEA and its ctrl-shift-a quick search. Here is a picture of what I mean. Possibly it could be context sensitive. Also if you could change the context with some extra keys or mouse work while the search is on, I suspect it would be really helpful. Ofcourse also provide the keyboard shortcuts in the menu, so users can use the tool to learn those also. What do you think? Anyhow hope you find the time to finalise the discussion on this idea and it finds its way to GIMP Release soon. I would try to find some time to help design the solution and I suspect a few others also from my workplace could help with some ideas also. ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
