My browser has a white background and, as was suggested in the reply
sent to me, I right clicked on the blank page and saved the image to my
desktop. I opened the image in Image Viewer and there was a checkered
rectangle with a white arrow at the top right corner pointing to the
right and another white arrow in the bottom right corner pointing
downwards. There is also a pale grey arrow pointing to the right in the
top left corner and another similar arrow pointing downwards in the
bottom left corner. The 2 grey arrows were not noticeable when the image
was opened in Gimp but the checkered rectangle and the white arrows were
there.

This image uses an indexed palette with transparency information. This
is not fully supported in GIMP. The PNG loader seems to handle it
nicely, but the GIMP image display has some special code that thresholds
the alpha channel for images in indexed mode. This is because the code
was written for GIF images. The projection in indexed mode simulates the
alpha capabilities of the GIF format, where a pixel is either fully
transparent or opaque.

[Gimp-user] ftp address for 2.6.1 rpm

2008-10-18 Thread John Culleton
Attempts to download gimp 2.6.1 into Debian Lenny resulted in 2.4.7. 
 I don´t know how to fake it out further. 

So I went back to Slackware, which takes a lot of fussing but usually 
can be worked out with successive downloads/compiles of all the 
library bits and pieces. I succeeded with 
downloading/making/installing  latest babl and glib. but this gimp 
2.6.1 effort  halted when the make of gegl stalled with this error:

-- In file included from /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkspawn.h:26,
 from /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gdk/gdk.h:52,

glib.h can be included directly.
make[2]: *** [gegl.o] Error 1
--
gspawn.h is of course in various include directories.
 
So now I am down to my third option, download a rpm or other 
precompiled  version of 2.6.1 and try to install that.  When I ftp to 
ftp.gimp.org I find source files but not the precompiled versions. 
Obviously I am not looking in the right places.  Can someone give me 
a pointer?

[Gimp-user] GAP Onionskin Question

2008-10-18 Thread bhaaluu
Greetings,

I am running a Debian GNU/Linux 'Etch' distribution with The Gimp 2.2.
I have Akkana Peck's book: Beginning GIMP From Novice To Professional.

My background is in Art. I have a small Art Bronze foundry, a small
woodworking studio, a sculpture studio, and an animation studio.
I also tinker with my digital camera, a new used flatbed scanner,
and an old computer (built in 2002) that runs GNU/Linux.

What I am looking for is a tutorial for the Gimp Animation Package,
specifically, for using the 'Onionskin' feature. I don't need to make
an animated GIF, or any other type of movie format because I already
do that with other tools (ImageMagick, mpeg2encode, ffmpeg,
mencoder, bash shell scripts, and so forth).

I have a traditional animation desk where I can do 2D hand drawn
cartoon animation with a pencil and paper. Then I scan the individual
frames on a flatbed scanner. Sometimes, I need to adjust the drawing,
from one drawing to the next, and would like to use the 'Onionskin'
feature. Specifically, I need to be able to 'register' drawings with
each other so my scene won't be jumping all over the place when I
play it. I also need to be able to do 'in-betweens.'

Using the Onionskin feature seems like it would be very similar to how
I use my animation desk, which has an underlit animation disk with a
pegbar to register each drawing. I can make a drawing, turn on the
light under the disk, place a new sheet of drawing paper on the pegbar,
and see the first drawing through the new sheet of paper. I can also
place two 'key' frames on the pegbar, and add a new piece of paper
on top of those two, in order to do an 'in-between' drawing. In this
case, I can see the two bottom drawings through the top sheet.

Note: My Animation Desk and Animation Disk are not commercial products.
  I converted an old drafting table into an Animation Desk by
  cutting a 16-1/2 inch hole in it, in order to put the rotating
  Animation Disk in it. The Animation Disk is made from plywood
  and has a piece of Plexiglass inserted into it, with the wood
  beneath the Plexiglass cut away so a light can shine through it.
  The pegbar consists of three 1/4 inch dowels, placed 4 inches
  on-center, above the Plexiglass pane. I use 8-1/2 X 11 inch,
  20 pound copy paper, with holes punched in it by an office punch,
  for animation paper. Thus, this is a studio-built tool.

The 'Onionskin' feature is under the 'Videos' menu item in The Gimp.

Video  Onionskin  [Configuration..., Create or Replace, Delete, Toggle
Visibility]

The first item is Configuration...

That brings up a complicated looking dialog box with many things in it.
As I've mentioned above, I'd like to be able to do two things:

1. Place one drawing over another and see the bottom drawing through the
   top drawing so I can lasso stuff in the top drawing and 'register' it
   with the bottom drawing.
2. Place two 'key frame' drawings beneath the top drawing, and be able
   to do an 'in-between' drawing on the page on top, seeing both the
   bottom drawings through the top page.

Can you help me configure 'Onionskin' to do the above things?

Next, I need to know how to actually implement the Onionskin feature.
I currently have a 62-frame scene that I'd like to work with.
Each frame came off the scanner as a PNM image file. I've already
rotated and cropped all the images, using ImageMagick and the bash shell
scripting language.

So far, from what I've read, The GIMP can only do onionskinning with its
native file format, which is XCF. Is there any way of batch coverting
all the PNM files to XFC files without opening each one of them and
saving it to an XCF file? ImageMagick's 'convert' tool doesn't recognize
XCF image files.

I have a very basic familiarity with Python, if that would help?
Perhaps there is a simple Python script which would convert images
[101.pnm ... 162.pnm] to [.xcf ... 0161.xcf]?

My knowledge of The GIMP is also very basic. So far, I've read through
Chapter 3 in Peck's book, which means I have a rudimentary familiarity
with layers. I was not pleased with how my version of the GIF animation
exercise in Chapter 3 turned out.

I would prefer working with someone, one-on-one, off-list to get this
going. Once I get it going, I will happily detail everything I've
learned, and post it to the list as a Summary.  If a one-on-one isn't
possible, then any help at all will be appreciated, and if I'm able
to get it going, then I'll still post a Summary of what I've learned
to the list. I just feel it would be more productive to go one-on-one.

If I've missed a tutorial that already explains what I'm looking for,
a pointer to such a tutorial would be appreciated. Also, I may be
trying to translate something I do in the real world, directly to a
computer, and not realize that there may be another way to do the
exact same thing, but not know what it is called. 'Onionskin' is
what I think I'm looking for. I've also seen references to

I get the same problems while trying to build Gegl on Fedora 9.

I seem to get good results by building Gegl 0.18 on Fedora 8, and then
install it in Fedora 9.

In Gimp 2.6.1 (in Windows - I assume its the same in Linux) just open an 
image of the same size as your PNM files. In your Explorer equivalent in 
Linux select all 62 images, drag them as a group to the toolbox with the 
Layers dialog shown and drop.


Result should be 63 layers (lowest the background) and above that the 62 
PNM images named to match.  Delete the lowest one.



From there you can (for example) save as a GIF file with 62 frames or 
(I presume) do anything else you want to do with GAP-onionskin.


If you really want them saved as separate files ... this thread looks 
on-point (found with Google: [gimp save layers as files]

You might also want to open a directory and open all the images in it. Not even

try it in Script-Fu it will not work as many other SIOD function.

To solve this you have to work-around this by dumping the directory contents to 
a file and read that file instead, or you can write a Perl-Fu, Python-Fu or a 
Gimp Plug-in.

Does this mean, I will never be able to save any files in script-fu?

I have no chance to use perl or python, because perl needs gimptool, I do not
have, and python for gimp tool can not be found on the web.

 I think this is due to changes in script-fu (?) but don't know enough

This is explained in the release notes for GIMP 2.6:

[Gimp-user] Gimp 2.6.x for Mac OS X released

2008-10-18 Thread Simone

Would you mind to fix the spelling of GIMP on your web pages? The
application is called GNU Image Manipulation Program, or short GIMP,
not Gimp. Thanks.

... done.

Re: [Gimp-user] GAP Onionskin Question

2008-10-18 Thread saulgoode
I would recommend first reading the reference documentation that is included
with the source code.
Online at:
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gimp-gap/trunk/docs/reference/txt/plug-in-gap-onionskin-configuration.txt?revision=470view=markup

Next, your scanned files should be named sequentially in the form  
frame_0001.pnm, frame_0002.pnm, frame_0003.pnm, etc. The frame  
part can be different, and the extension should match the filetype.  
The numbering should be consecutive with no gaps.

Once your scanned files are named properly, you should open up the  
first one in GIMP, then perform a Video-Frames convert; specifying  
an extension of .xcf (you can change the basename and/or the  
directory path should you wish). You should then close your PNM image  
window and work with the copy.

Yes, you MUST use XCF format for onion-skinning to function properly.  
Using XCF is also necessary for other useful GAP functionality  
(masking, selections, etc).

 As I've mentioned above, I'd like to be able to do two things:

 1. Place one drawing over another and see the bottom drawing through the
top drawing so I can lasso stuff in the top drawing and 'register' it
with the bottom drawing.
Use the following Onionskin settings...

Reference Mode: Normal
Onionskin Layers: 1
Frame Reference: -1
Stack Position: 0 [From Top]
Opacity: 50%  100%
Select Mode: All visible
Auto create after load  Auto delete before save should both be checked.
All other settings should use their defaults.


 2. Place two 'key frame' drawings beneath the top drawing, and be able
to do an 'in-between' drawing on the page on top, seeing both the
bottom drawings through the top page.

Alter the above settings as follows...

Reference Mode: Bidirectional (double)
Onionskin Layers: 2

This will result in the onion layers appearing ABOVE your frame layer  
(not underneath it as you specified). This is, in my opinion,  
preferable so that you don't have to adjust the opacity of your frame  
layer to see the previous and next frame layers.

Re: [Gimp-user] script-fu-save-anim-layers

2008-10-18 Thread saulgoode
Script has been updated.

Quoting Alec Burgess [EMAIL PROTECTED]:

 Script:
 http://flashingtwelve.brickfilms.com/GIMP/Scripts/save-anim-layers.scm
 (apparently by Saul Goode 3/11/2008)

 This script was mentioned in bugzilla:
 Bug 556548 – Layer extraction script
 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=556548

 Attempts to execute it result in:

 Error while executing script-fu-save-anim-layers:
 Error: Bad syntax of binding spec in let* : ((image) (buffer))

 I think this is due to changes in script-fu (?) but don't know enough
 about script-fu to correct it. Could someone help?

 Also ... in the script comments, its not clear which directory/folder
 the files will be created?
