I am a mid-newbie when it comes to gimp.
I want to make several of the buttons with the instructions from the link above in various colors , shapes (Rectangles or squares) with different patterns as needed. I would like to make the button once in some kind of a script so when I wanted a different pattern or color, I could edit the script with colors and/or patterns and it would create a new button for me. Or am I making the process too simplistic and it can’t be done.
Please,point me in the right direction. Thanks!
Typically you don't edit the script each time you want a change. You create a script that accepts parameters that define things like size, color to use, pattern to use... and tell Gimp about these in the script registration. When you call the script from a Gimp menu Gimp automaticaly builds a dialog with buttons to pick a color (using Gimp's color selector), a pattern (in Gimp's pattern collection), etc...
