  updating documentation
Posted by: jacques_duflos - 08-15-2023, 04:50 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (3)

Hi there,
I sometimes bump into inconsistencies in the python script documentation (or things that look like so to me, I'm not at all an expert). 

Here is an example : the gimp_image_insert_layer's documentation displayed in the python procedure navigator is :

Quote:This procedure adds the specified layer to the image at the given position. If the specified parent is a valid layer group (See 'gimp-item-is-group' and 'gimp-layer-group-new') then the layer is added inside the group. If the parent is 0, the layer is added inside the main stack, outside of any group. The position argument specifies the location of the layer inside the stack (or the group, if a valid parent was supplied), starting from the top (0) and increasing. If the position is specified as -1 and the parent is specified as 0, then the layer is inserted above the active layer, or inside the group if the active layer is a layer group. The layer type must be compatible with the image base type.

But specifying 0 as parent returns an error
Code:
➤> img=gimp.image_list()[0]
➤> layer = pdb.gimp_layer_new(img, 100, 100, RGB_IMAGE, "layer", 100, 0)
➤> pdb.gimp_image_insert_layer(img, layer, 0, 0)
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: wrong parameter type
➤>


after struggling a little, I found out that you should use None instead of 0
Code:
➤> img=gimp.image_list()[0]
➤> layer = pdb.gimp_layer_new(img, 100, 100, RGB_IMAGE, "layer", 100, 0)
➤> pdb.gimp_image_insert_layer(img, layer, None, 0)
➤> img.layers
[<gimp.Layer 'layer'>, <gimp.Layer 'Arrière-plan'>]
➤>
From my point of view, the documentation should be modified (correct me if I'm wrong).
It's not a bug as such, but maybe it would be useful to report it through the bug report procedure ?

  Where is G'MIC?
Posted by: Zero01 - 08-15-2023, 02:45 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

Can't get G'MIC to appear in the Filters list, I'm on a Windows 10 64-bit PC with the latest GIMP 2.10.34 (Revision 2).
Tried everything, must be missing something? Uninstalled GIMP from the Program Files directory, uninstalled G'MIC too, then re-installed (both latest versions). Set preferences, plug-in dirs etc, to no avail, still no G'MIC.. All my other plug-ins are there..
Currently deleting my brain lol..

  panoramic viewer
Posted by: denzjos - 08-14-2023, 07:07 PM - Forum: Other graphics software - Replies (2)

FSPViewer is a free viewer for spherical (equirectangular) panoramic images
https://www.fsoft.it/FSPViewer/
I've made some panoramic photos and stitch them with gimp to get a full rotated view. To make a less or more good transition I have rotate the whole panorama photo to get the left and the right side on the same level with the help of a straight horizontal path. The example is poor quality because I can't post a big photo here.

  Mass blur images via Python-Fu
Posted by: everetttt - 08-14-2023, 05:26 PM - Forum: Scripting questions - Replies (2)

Hello, I am wanting to streamline a process to blur every image (all jpegs) in a directory that I have, as doing it all manually would be extremely time consuming. I have found many people using Python-Fu, and so I believe to add my scrip to GIMP I would open any file, Filters -> Python-Fu -> Console and enter code, of which I have the following

Code:
from gimpfu import*

def plugin_blur_post(timg, tdrawable):


   new_layer = pdb.gimp_layer_copy(tdrawable, 0)
   timg.add_layer (new_layer, 0)
    
   pdb.plug_in_gauss_iir(timg, new_layer, 25, True,True)
   gimp.pdb.file_jpeg_save(timg, new_layer, (car (gimp-image-get-filename)) + "_blurred.jpg", "raw_filename", 0.85, 0, 0, 1, "", 3, 0, 0, 0)


register(
       "python_fu_blur",
       "blur-posterize",
       "*",
       "*",
       "*",
       "*",
       "<Image>/Tools/blur-posterize...",
       "*",
       [],
       [],
       plugin_blur_post)

main()
This, I hope, adds a gaussian blur with both X and Y values of 25, then saves as a new jpeg, with the name being currentName_blurred.jpg
Unfortunately, this just crashes the console when I copy paste it all in.

Finally, as I want to apply this to all files in my directory (including images within folders), I believe I have to run a similar command as found here. So, I believe I would navigate to the folder and run the command
Code:
gimp -i -b '(python_fu_blur "*.jpg" 5.0 0.5 0)' -b '(gimp-quit 0)'
As the code doesn't yet compile, I can't run the command, but in Windows Powershell gimp is not even recognized as a name. I've tried both this and this but neither allow me to call gimp.

I realize this is effectively three separate errors in one post and I do apologize for that. Thank you for any help offered, I really do appreciate it.

Video help gimp find the camera
Posted by: isayhello2u - 08-12-2023, 02:49 AM - Forum: General questions - Replies (5)

I have  acquired an old used koolertron book scanner  (without a manual or software -so far have not been able to obtain either)    my window 11 pc  thinks its a usb 2.0 web camera.   but i would like to take photos directly from gimp   (i always update so im sure its the newest version of gimp)    I can take photos with microsoft camera app then upload to gimp.  but i would like to take a photo more directly as  im working with paper too large and fragile for a normal scanner   even a hand held one.    Gimp create can find my hp printer/scanner and my cannon/scanner  but can not find any usb connected camera.     I saw a reply on a similar question that said something about twain.   but im very end user computer illiterate  and need something that says  something like  step one go here and step two click that   step three type this  etc so on and so forth.   is there any one who can advise me?

  Suddenly I can't clear the background
Posted by: earthbound_misfit - 08-11-2023, 10:42 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (2)

I was clearing the background using fuzzy tool and command+X and all of a sudden it's not working. I also tried Command+k, edit and cut, edit and clear, and I tried the eraser. The eraser wasn't working then it started work. The alpha channel is turned on. Before this happened fuzzy tool just quit working. I tried to select and the marking ants would show up but would disappear when I let go of the mouse. Then it started working but I can clear the selection.  I don't get any error messages or anything. Thanks in advance for any responses.

  Floating selection move blocked by weird cursor
Posted by: Ken Shirriff - 08-10-2023, 11:11 PM - Forum: General questions - Replies (4)

I regularly cut a region, paste it, move the floating layer, and anchor it. But sometimes the move is blocked by the mysterious cursor below. I haven't been able to figure out why sometimes I can move the layer and sometimes I can't. What is going on and what does the mysterious circle/tangent cursor mean

Thanks,
Ken
