[Gimp-user] xaos and gimp animation
xaos renders it's animations in png format, gimps mpeg encoder can't read png format though. all the rendered files are individual (up many hundreds) and i want to do post work on them in gimp and put them together with other types of animations i have made . eventually at some point i'll probably move onto film gimp but at the minute gimp can still handle to bits and pieces i'm doing. i need a script to convert x amount of png files into a single xcf file, is that possible ? also xaos outputs three types of file, png (raw image i think) and png.b and png.p, how important are these and do i need them in gimp ? if i convert some finished animations (bits of) into mpeg fromat (under gimp) will i still be able to modify them ? atm i can only view the png files by doing this command;'mplayer -fs -mf "on:fps=5:type=png" "*.png" which isn't ideal, i would like to work with these files and obvioulsy opening them one by one in gimp is considering the amount niegh impossible. are there any docs/sites where i can look up questions like this ? thanks :) sammi ___ Gimp-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.xcf.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user

The feature you are talking about is a hack that uses guides to work around the lack of a real grid in 1.2. It is implemented as a gimp-perl script.

Re: [Gimp-user] CMYK
Hi, just for your information, the CVS version does include the RGB<->CMYK conversions now and it offers a simple CMYK color selector.

[Gimp-user] Scripting for resize
Hi all, I'm just new to script-fu and gimp. I was not aware scheme is used for scripting in gimp. I loved that. :D Anyway, I've read the script-fu part of the gimp manual. I have a directory tree with about 1000 images and I'd like to resize them all to 20x20. Is there any script for doing that? If not, I checked the DB browser and I found out I need to use gimp-image-resize. How can I check which files are in a given directory? Best regards, Paulo J. Matos

Make sure your sequence has a naming scheme like foo_0001.png, foo_0002.png, etc and then use Frames to Image to put all the files as layers of a new one. In worst case, you will have to use a shell script to rename your files to something GAP likes. > which isn't ideal, i would like to work with these files and obvioulsy > opening them one by one in gimp is considering the amount niegh > impossible. GAP has a navigator and lets you apply a filter multiple times. Maybe you do not have to load all the image into a XCF. Really, you should give GAP a try, it sounds like want you want. That, and read mencoder and ImageMagick's docs more, for small editing and compression you should have enough.

Re: [Gimp-user] need gimp grid
filters -> render -> pattern -> grid. There is a bug up to gimp 1.2.3, in which the horizontal and vertical spacing inputs are swapped. Still usable, though. As for the axis, you will have to draw them by hand in GIMP. Depending on your needs with axis and such, maybe you shold take a look at GNUplot instead.
