Your invocation of 'min(' is incorrect -- it should be '(min'. This
probably results in either 'xsize' or 'ysize' evaluating to "0" and
thus a failure of 'gimp-image-scale'.

Guile is not the same Scheme dialect than what Script-Fu is using. Did you check that floor is at all supported in Script-Fu?

Re: [Gimp-user] Batch processing resizing images
Hi, I run this command from the (linux) commandline: gimp -i -b '(batch-unsharp-mask "*.jpg" 5.0 0.5 0)' -b '(gimp-quit 0)' The response to this command is: batch command experienced an execution error If I comment out the line with 'gimp-image-scale', the batch processing works but off course without scaling. Since the 'let' statement creates local variables I also tried to put the 'gimp-image-scale' line within the braces, but this also results in the same error message. I tried to debug the script using the Scheme command display, but this was also unsuccesfull. The calculation of the scale variable works in Scheme using Guile, so that part of the script should be OK. But now I am stuck.

Thanks! What a nice thing to say. :-) I should probably mention that that LinuxChix class is old (I think it was based on GIMP 2.2) and in 2.6, the Lasso tool is *much* easier to use. You no longer have to select in one go -- you can drag for a while, stop, scroll the view, drag some more. You can also mix freehand dragging with clicking to make line segments, like you would with the Path tool. It's like the best parts of the old Lasso combined with Paths. I never used the old Lasso tool much, because I couldn't zoom in and scroll around while selecting, but in 2.6 I use it quite a lot. If you haven't used the new Lasso because you didn't like the old one, give the new one a try! (Unfortunately for me the Lasso was changed to late to make it in to the second edition of "Beginning GIMP" except as an appendix. The perils of writing books based on actively developed projects ...) ...Akkana ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
