N-Point deformation tool
http://www.gimp.org/ - Topic : GOOGLE SUMMER OF CODE 2013 RESULTS2013-10-04
Marek Dvorožnák implemented a new N-Point deformation tool that makes it possible to deform objects while preserve shapes consistency.
You can watch a video demonstration of the tool on YouTube : http://youtu.be/OmOyQyuiO_E
The work is based on a "As-Rigid-As-Possible Image Registration for Hand-drawn Cartoon Animations" paper by Daniel Sykora et al : http://dcgi.felk.cvut.cz/home/sykorad/Sykora09-NPAR.pdf

Samj is this a new plugin for gimp or a new tool in a 2.8 release

[YAFU]

That video demostration of N-Point deformation tool is amazing!
Thanks to all GSoC 2013 GIMP developers!

Thanks samj, downloading the virtual machine ...

[Graechan]

Samj is this for windows?

[GnuTux]

Thanks for drive image, Samj. It works fine in Fedora wth VB, a little slow but that`s expected.

This is a nice tool. It wll be very handy for animations, among other thngs.

A quick test...



I`ll play more tomorrow and hopefully do something better.

Bonjour,

You need to install VirtualBox on a 64-bit micro computer to use this virtual machine : https://www.virtualbox.org/

1- Download and install for Windows : http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualb ... 60-Win.exe

2- Unzip the archive GimpEVAL-20131020-64bits.7z

3- You need to create a new virtual machine in VirtualBox. Type : Ubuntu 64-bit type and use the disk image GimpEVAL-20131020-64bits.vdi

4- Start the virtual machine, wait for the launch and click on the desktop shortcut "EN n-point-deformation" to test the future functionality.

Notes :
You can change the keyboard type by language : Settings Manager > Keyboard > Layout tab > Add button
This version is provided (in part) for cross-compiling for Windows, I can write a small notice if people are interested.

[Graechan]

I have the vdi file, and virtual box is installed but following the directions I'm not getting anything to happen

can someone advise please

[GnuTux]

Click the green start arrow and it should boot up Ubuntu (LX Desktop) from the virtual machine. Then you should be able to run GIMP 2.9.x. There is a shortcut to the new filter on the desktop.

[Graechan]

Thanks for being around GnuTux, I,ve done that and this is what I got back

[GnuTux]

The system should boot Ubuntu automatically from that screen. if not, just hit enter and it should boot to Ubuntu

[Graechan]

Gnutux enter brings up this screen just blank

[GnuTux]

It takes several minutes for Ubuntu to boot, depending on how powerful your PC is.

Do you see any text scrolling by and does it look like Ubuntu is trying to boot?

It's possible there could be a video driver issue or some other issue preventing you from booting.

I'm not an Ubuntu user. I'm from the Red Hat (Fedora) side of the track so my Ubuntu troubleshooting skills are limited.

[Graechan]

GnuTux still no go where should the 'GimpEVAL-20131020-64bits.vdi' file be installed?

[Graechan]

But Tux I'm not the sort to be defeated easily 'Whalla'

[GnuTux]

Excellent, you're In.

[Graechan]

And I've had a little play thanks for all the help

Bonjour,

With the new version of VirtualBox 4.3.0 it is necessary to reinstall the "guest additions".
There is no package to install in Xubuntu "GimpEVAL-20131020-64bits.vdi", is already done.

On Windows
- Start "GimpEVAL-20131020-64bits.vdi"
- Périphériques > Installer les additions invité... (in French, in English ???)

On Linux Xubuntu virtual machine
- Accessories > Terminal Emulator
- With the terminal : sudo thunar
- With Thunar go to : /media/gimpeval/VBOXADDITIONS_4.3.0_89960/
- Right Clic on "autorun.sh" > Execute

Bonjour,

If you want to do some tests, here is a version of GimpEVAL compiled for 64-bit Windows.
Download link:
http://www.aljacom.com/~gmic/GimpEVAL-2 ... 0131027.7z
(92 090 350 bytes) / MD5 9ff02f8c26dab113fcfe73836a07ab5c
(95 135 065 bytes) / MD5 73ac9be77053fe74f10f7bc256d0f84d

Unzip the archive in C:\ or in the root of a USB key.

I think GEGL filters are faster.
I installed the plug-in G'MIC with modification : curl.exe is located in the subdirectory \bin . This avoids an error message.

This version is compiled under Windows 8.1 Pro. 64-bit.
It is identical to the normal version of Gimp EVAL (Gimp 2.9.1) compiled into the virtual machine.

[Graechan]

Samj it didn't have the N-point deformation tool
