Grid

[rich2005]

The source path grid comes from ofnuts of-path-grid.py with the two edge paths removed.
The shaper, a 4 point circle using my old favourite path-shapes.scm

   

and the result using Path Transformation -> Map shaped by a Bezier arc quadrilateral (easy)

   

Edit: As usual not reading the question properly:

Using a rectangular path as the shaper. The gray square is a throwaway layer used to get some symmetry to the shape.

rich, I thought you could set this with the plugin parameters. Not. The shaper is a logical solution. Thanks for the tip.

Did you do it in GIMP? If so how?

Hi Patrice,

Basically using a script - mhspheres, located in the Script-fu/MH menu.
I also used the Sphere Designer plugin - Under Filters - Render - Sphere Designer.
The background was made with Starry sky (not sure if plugin or script).

Hmmm I think that was it.

Hi rich2005,

Two questions:

• Regarding using the Ofnuts path-grid.py plugin, how did you manage to scale it?
  
  
• Whenever I try to generate a grid with this plugin it generates a path that exceeds the image dimensions.
  
  
• The solution I found was to create this path using a smaller image and then copying it to the larger image.
  
• In other words, I created the grid on a 400x400 image and then transferred it to an 800px x 800px image.
  

The second;

• Was the rectangular path (revised.jpg) in the last image of your post #11 made using the same plugin (path-grid) and then removing the extremes/edges or via another plugin?
  

I tried to find the manual for this plugin, but I think it's one of the few without a manual.

Thanks!

@rich, symmetry of the shaper was the key word. Otherwise the grid will be bent. Now I get it.

Ok I got it, https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-unboun...IMAGE-FILL is the one working fine, (the one from the original website does not work)
Thank you Krikor

@Pix, I did something similar to Krikor's quite a while back using a flower grid - cannot remember how though

I can imagine how nice was the effect, I hope you will recall how you did it
