[Gimp-user] Error saving in gimp

2005-06-22 Thread Clair
I'm using FC4, when trying to save in gimp I get the following error message:

(script-fu:23202): LibGimpBase-WARNING **: script-fu: wire_read(): error
Segmentation fault

Does anyone know what this is, and how to fix it?


Cheers,
Clair.

Sure. IIRC, there's a long-standing bug report on this. Patches are
welcome.

There are two aspects here. One is the user point of view: a cluttered
preferences dialog makes it very hard to locate the option you are
looking for. We have frequent complaints from users who claim that a
preferences option doesn't exist. Even it is definitely there, it is
simply not found. That alone is a good reason to keep the number of
preference options to a minimum. But of course they can't be avoided
entirely. I never asked for that. I would simply like to keep them to
the current number.

The second reason is maintainability. Any option you add is doubles
the amount of possible configurations which all need to be tested
regularily.

I admit that this option can be confusing but I find it very
useful. It allows you to assign dynamic keyboard shortcuts for this
particular session only. I wouldn't want to miss that.

gimp -e or some other -parameter that you can look up in man gimp?

How would you indicate to gimp that you wanted to open a "new"
instance or add to an "existing" instance?

*That* is the reason to have "gimp-remote".

It's something like 'gimp-remote'

Try searching for that or similar.

What do i need to put in the command line of gnome to open a image
when clicking on it ?

When i just put gnome it works except it loads a new gimp for each
image instead of opening the image in the already running gimp.

Yes. There is a reason for me to ignore this request: One of the few 
things in the world that requires  a single button to operate  is a 
toaster. An Image manipulation Program is no toaster, and it does 
need preferences settings to work in an optimal way. 

No one needs to find, learn and set to an optimal state the program's 
preferences in the first use, or even in the first month of use. I 
don't see any need to artifically keep the preferences down - a user 
who doesn't have a clue about why computer programs differ from a 
toaster will have a feeling of "looking at things under the hood" 
when using the preferences dialog in the first place - it won't hurt 
if all the preferences needed are there.

Besides, as I wrote clearly before - the first place I would search 
for such an option would be in "Input Devices" - even it is not the 
"right" place to put it in. There is space in the input devices 
section for this option to be added without removing anything else - 
so I thought that removing anything else just to keep the preferences 
coutn down would not be needed. 

But since you really want it, the "Save Keyboard Shortcuts on Exit"   
is something I never turned off - so as far as I am concerned it 
could be gone and remain always on.

Hi -
also, you should check if in the printing dialog, configure printer 
sub-dialog, where the "printing command"   is displayed, if there is 
no "-oraw" option.

I fit is there, erase taht option, and try printign again.

hi, i really have no idea but this page suggests if the problem is not 
addressed in their faq to ask in the gimp-print project forum, have you 
tried there ?

Judging my the lack of responses, there must be no-one using a Mac
Gimp and a epson C86 printer.

I surely could use some help, and finding out why Gimp 2.2.6,
with Gimp-Print 4.2.7 will not print.

i can tell you two places where it is not, in cvs.  i grabbed a checkout
of gimp-1.2 and gimp-1.0 and it is not there.  

perhaps it is stuck in the attic in cvs?

for updating old scripts, since gimp-1.2 most of the changes have been
logical.  i have done some updating of a few python and perl scripts, it
is generally just a few calls that need to be changed.  i am not certain
how to document this more than telling you to run the script and see
what sort of error message you get.  the error message and the scripting
tools are in most cases enough to figure out what changes need to be
made.

[Gimp-user] side-bar script-fu

2005-06-22 Thread Sven Görsmann

Hello!

I have a question: What happened to the side-bar.scm Script-Fu by Mike 
Oliphant? I used it in the older versions of GIMP (1.x), but now with 
the new 2.x GIMP versions  the older scripts  are unfunctional cause the 
Script-Fu engine changed.


Does anybody know where i can find an updated version of this ( and 
maybe other ) script ? Or can anybody tell me where to find a "manual" 
which shows how to update the old scripts to work again in the new Gimp?


Thanks in advance,

I asked you to propose a preference to remove in exchange for the new
one. You don't like that deal or is there another reason you are
