Re: [Gimp-developer] My plugin doesn't start anymore after upgrading mingw/gcc suite
Allessandro, I am doubtful this has anything to do with 4.8.1 since I have been using 4.8.1 in building Gimp and recently including BIMP and have not seen any issues. Please feel free to contact me offlist to resolve this, if you wish. Thanks, Partha On Fri, Oct 4, 2013 at 5:00 AM, Alessandro Francesconi alessandrofrancesc...@live.it wrote: Hello everyone, This morning, on my Windows platform, I’ve decided to run a “mingw-get.exe upgrade” command in order to give a fresh update to my compiling tools. The process finished fine and the GCC version changed from 4.7.2 to 4.8.1... but I shouldn't have done it! I went to my plugin source code (it’s BIMP, by the way), then I run the usual batch command in order to compile it with the “new” tools. The compiler ended without errors, but now the plugin is disappeared from GIMP! One strange thing after the upgrade: the filesize of my plugin’s executable changed from 270 KB to 320 KB... I think I have to add some new options to the compiler, or what?

The professionals would use fonts with the right faces, that's all. :-) That does not break anything in the workflow of people who don't want to use this. In any case, massively breaking fontconfig is not the way to achieve this. ;-) Also if we were to make such a change, it would only pertain to Windows users, because that's the only release where we embed Fontconfig. Other users, at least on Linux (and I guess OSX too, no?), would have a system-wide fontconfig already and we are not going to override the user's custom configuration. But if a typography erudite wishes to get rid of this criminal feature, one just has to delete the following file, and you are done: /etc/fonts/conf.d/90-synthetic.conf (that's the Linux most common path. You can just find the equivalent for another installation/platform) And that's it! :-) Jehan Alexandre ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
Re: [Gimp-developer] HELP with SYMBOLIC icon theme for Gimp.
Here you can find the bugs :
http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=60270
A - I have the symbolic icon, but I can find the widget name to load the
icon. Gimp allways loads this colorful icon and I can not change it.
¿What name has it?
There are no reference in libgimpwidgets documentation about this icon.
B - Same of A. I think solving A maybe can solve this bug.
C - I want to change this icon too. By default, gimp loads the desktop
theme icon folder, but I whant to design and load a symbolic one for
layers groups button.
D - The eye or visibility icon is designed and loaded on imagerc with:
stock[gimp-visible] =
{
{images/stock-eye-12.png, *, *, gtk-button },
{images/stock-eye-16.png, *, *, gtk-button },
{images/stock-eye-20.png, *, *, gtk-button },
{images/stock-eye-24.png, *, *, * }
}
But Gimp loads the default one instead the symbolic. ¿It has another
name?, ¿How can I change it?
E - Same as D bug but with the zoom-follow-window button.
The code in imagerc is this:
stock[gimp-zoom-follow-window] =
{
{ images/tools/stock-zoom-follow-window-12.png, *, *,
gtk-button },
{ images/tools/stock-zoom-follow-window-16.png, *, *,
*}
}
But Gimp loads the default one.
F - Same as D and E but related with default-colors and swap-colors.
Hi again!
Working on gtkrc I have solved F bug and improve the icons visualization.
Now, looks like that:
http://www.pasteall.org/pic/show.php?id=60272
The bug D is almost done: eye icon has changed, bug when clicked, there
are no closed eye showd, so, I need help to solve this.
Thanks.

Because fake italics and bold faces are an abomination :) http://tavmjong.free.fr/blog/?p=822 I understand. I would still not remove the feature altogether. Maybe there could be a warning when someone requests a bold/italic when there is no such face and we are simulating them (GIMP does not handle this, but maybe there is a way for us to get a feedback when this happens), because I feel that the main issue is not that the feature exists, but rather that there is no feedback about this from the software. If we were to give such a feedback, the typographic erudite would know to step away from this font, or at least do an informed choice about the matter. I would personally not be against a feature request along this line. Giving the right feedback to users, and making them informed and active rather than passive in their choices, is totally my view of things. If you write such a feature request, please Cc me. :-) Jehan Jehan Alexandre ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list ___ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address:gimp-developer-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list

Re: [Gimp-developer] Next minor release?
You should know the situation for the CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) fonts. There are more than 15,000 characters to be designed, so that little font set has bold and italics face. In those countries, the bug reported above is very serious and critical. We have to have options to use simulated bold and italic for those fonts. -- sigetch 2013/10/4 Guillermo Espertino (Gez) gespert...@gmail.com El 04/10/13 05:12, Jehan Pagès escribió: It was the reason of why italic/bold could not be simulated anymore in 2.8.6 for Windows. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/**show_bug.cgi?id=708110https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=708110 In my oppinion, that's not a bug, it's an improvement.:-) Bold and Italics variants should be designed specifically and not simulated.

[Gimp-developer] layer multi-select
Hello I am going to make an effort to get a layer multi-select going. In this email I will outline what I hope to achieve and I am asking what would be the most effective way to go about submitting a patch that could get accepted. The goal is to be able to select multiple layers, and perform actions on the set of selected layers as a whole. Initially the actions would be limited to changing the visibility, changing the locked, or moving the selected layers to a group. This would be different than creating a group of layers because it would be easier to select additional layers in the layer dialog by using shift + click for a range of layers or ctrl+click to add/remove a layer from the currently selected. To implement this I want to add multi-select to the layers dialog. Then when there are multiple layers selected an action would check for multiple layers selected and act accordingly. Similar to using a layer group. I can see writing this two different ways, I am open to suggestions for more though. The first way is to use the actual layers dialog and add a multi-select to the dialog. Then modify individual actions to check for a multiple selection. The second way would be to create a plugin that makes a duplicate layers dialog with multiple selection. This dialog would allow actions that are performed on multiply selected layers. I have only briefly looked over the code, and I am open to suggestions. I think either way would be non-intrusive in the current selection model and allow some migration, such that if it works then actions can be migrate to using the selected layers instead of the active layer.
