I think it's interesting. I don't use tear-off menus /very/ often, but when I do they make life a whole lot easier: Generally speaking, when you need to do the same operations a whole lot of times per image or process, if there's not a keyboard shortcut you can "tear off" a menu that's buried three deep in the hierarchy and leave it open. If nobody's interested in them, it's because tear off menus have not "just worked" for so long that nobody knows about them. :o) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Hi Mark and Helmut, I have made the following changes: Corrected the drawing of arrow heads at the end of paths that have more than 2 points Added extra controls to determine whether the wing length and brush thickness are related to the path length or in absolute pixels. This is instead of using negative numbers for relative settings and positive numbers for absolute pixel values. Added patches, supplied by Helmut, to allow the script to work in GIMP V2.9/V2.10 Removed previous edit comments and commented out code The warning about paths with more than 2 points is now only given once following an activation of GIMP or a refresh of the Script-Fu scripts Swapped the up/down cursor key actions with the page up/down actions for the LoW and BT value fields (the page keys now increment/decrement by 10 and the up/down keys by 1) I copied and pasted the changes from the diff file noted above so hopefully I have done this correctly - could you check on V2.9 for me please Helmut. The other good news is that the modified code works fine in V2.8.16 (I made sure that all 3 changes were executed by the script) The revised version is at the same link as before: http://www.programmer97.talktalk.net/Files/arrow.zip Please let me know if there are any problems. -- programmer_ceds (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Thanks again for your work. The script was really only intended to work with a path of 2 points only but I will look at modifying it to place the second arrow at the final point of the curve. Having just checked, there is also an issue if a single arrow head is drawn based on the last point of a path with more than two points - the centre of the arrow doesn't lie along the final segment of the path. The easy approach would be to only allow the script to work on paths with two points but I'll think about it. Regarding the relative/absolute values - there are two of the controls where this would have to be done if they are to operate independently and give the greatest flexibility. Again I'll think about this. -- programmer_ceds (via www.gimpusers.com/forums) ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

[Gimp-user] Bug in "arrow" plugin, possible bug with tear-off menus
After 13+ years I let my subscription to gimp-user-list lapse due to excessive bounces (don't know why that was happening). I wasn't following it too much anymore. So of course a month later I have to do some Gimping, run into problems, and need to re-subscribe. Teaches me a lesson. ;) The "arrow.scm" plugin at http://registry.gimp.org/node/20269 doesn't work under 2.8.16 -- setting the stroke width has no effect (and it doesn't use the global brush width, either). I hacked up a fix: It looks like gimp-context-set-brush-size is now required instead of or in addition to gimp-brush-set-radius. The script hasn't been touched since 2009, and the last comment on the web page is 2013. What's the protocol for submitting a patch, or should I just keep a working copy for myself? Problem #2: Tear-off menus (2.8.16 again) don't work, at least in my environment (Linux, X11, FVWM window manager). For example, right-click-and-hold in an image window, move down to "Colors >", move across to the submenu and down to "Invert" and release -- that works. But right-click-and-hold, move down to "Colors >", move across to the top "-" line and release to create a tear-off menu. Then in that new "Colors" menu/window, click on "Invert" and nothing happens. (Actually, something does -- the message area in the lower right corner of the image window changes to say "Invert the colors", but the image doesn't change.) Same (no)thing with menu items that should pop up a dialog window, like "Levels...". But doing a deeper submenu from the tear-off menu, like "Map >" and then "Alien map..." from there does work. I couldn't find this on Bugzilla. Can anyone else recreate it? I'm guessing it hasn't shown up because everyone's on Windows or some fancy Linux "desktop environment" and/or does the thing where you dock all the menus/windows/dialogs into the main image window (I don't know how to do that, nor why I'd want to). Thanks for any suggestions. Also for keeping gimp-user-list alive. Were there lots of posts about changing "File -> Save As..." back to allow saving to JPEG/PNG/etc in addition to XCF instead of having to use "File -> Export" while I was gone? ;) -- MARK markr...@yahoo.com ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
