[Gimp-user] Script which convert XCF to BMP 24 bits

2010-08-08 Thread spam . spam . spam . spam
Hello,

I am writing a GIMP script which convert a XCF file to a BMP 24 bits file
(merging all the layers).
The problem is : the output file is a BMP 32 bits (I want a BMP 24 bits).

I found a procedure which give me the type :
gimp-drawable-type
It gives 0 when 24 bits and 1 when 32 bits.

But I don't found a procedure which set the type...

Can you tell me how I can save my BMP into 24 bits file?

Thank you a lot.

This is my script :

(define
(xcf-bmp
input
output
)
(let*
(
(image
(car
(gimp-xcf-load
RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
input
input
)
)
)
(drawable
(car
(gimp-image-get-active-drawable
image
)
)
)
)
(gimp-image-merge-visible-layers
image
0
)
(let*
(
(newdrawable
(car
(gimp-image-get-active-drawable
image
)
)
)
)
(file-bmp-save
RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
image
newdrawable
output

)
)
)
)

As an occasional user of Gimp I don't have all the arcana of installation 
memorized. Where can I find gimp-help and where should I install it?

Hi John,

Have a look at http://www.gimp.org/downloads/ and see if that helps

Look for the bit that says GIMP help files are available at
ftp://ftp.gimp.org/pub/gimp/help/

It appears that the English version of the help file is corrupted. First I get 
ftp download errors (binary download) for lines that consist only of a 
carriage return.  I did it twice and got the same message.  Next when I try to 
bunzip2 the file I get 

bunzip2: Data integrity error when decompressing.
Input file = gimp-help-2.6.0-html-en.tar.bz2, output file = gimp-
help-2.6.0-html-en.tar

I can keep trying, but is this a known defect?

Select-From Path will create a selection from the active path. The  
active path is usually the last path you've created or edited. You  
can make another path active by opening the Paths Dialog  
(Windows-Dockable Dialogs-Paths) and clicking on the thumbnail  
preview of the appropriate path.

Bonus from that dialog: button(s) that convert path to selection (and
selection to path, etc) with the option of combining (add / subtract /
intersect) with current selection. Look at the tooltips to learn what
keys to hold while clicking the buttons.
