I managed to successfully install the Gimp Python software.(Finally!) I then updated from Gimp 2.6.8 to 2.6.9 and it seemed fine. Then I found the error with the scroll bars and put on Gimp 2.6.10 to fix that. Python-fu is still there, but sadly Script-fu is gone!! I went back to 2.6.9 and then to 2.6.8 with no luck getting script-fu back!! What in the blazes is going on???

Oh yeah, I'm using Windows XP SP3.

the script fu menu was removed time ago from Gimp but all the scripts are still there mainly in the filter and color menu.

I'm using 2.6.10 and my script fu menu is still there.

Could you elaborate on this? Do you mean that the "Filters->Script-fu" submenu is missing? Or that you have none of the default scripts available (e.g., "Image->Guides->New Guide")? Something else?

Also, you might try running GIMP from an MS-DOS Prompt window, so that you can see any error messages produced.

because you have extra scripts that re-create that menu

But as default there is no more Script Fu menu (Xtn/ Sript fu Console is now in Filters menu , the Logo script are in File/create..the rest in the Colors and Filters menu)

I had no script-fu menu, and all of the default scripts were missing. I unistalled everything and reinstalled it 3 times. The third time truly is a charm, because I finally got it back. I have no clue how, but it's back. I have the script-fu and python-fu working. Now to find some good python filters/scripts for Gimp.

Thanks Muchly!!

This is kind of a double post. I put it the other Python thread too.

Layer Effects (layerfx.py) is a must have Python plug-in. Goes in your gimp / plugins folder.

http://registry.gimp.org/node/186

It's in Script-fu / Layer Effects.

I had to set the permissions for the plug-in to execute as a program. Don't know if that's true for Windows. I'm using Linux.

Glad you got it running PhotoMaster!
PythonFu is great to have there are so many more plugins you can use.
If you cant find one you want, let me know i have many. =)

Yes layerfx.py is a must have i agree.
It allows you to preview on the fly and the option to either merge all the layer effects together in one layer or leave it as it is.Im pretty sure those options are not available in the SCM version of the filter.

May i also suggest another set of executables called Texturizer?
I have it if you want it, it mimics the PS filter.It is a set of 8bfs that work together.
I use it quite alot.Download it here. (download each 8bf one at a time to make sure you get them all)

Just take all the 8bfs and place them in a folder called Texture, place that folder in the same folder you have PSPI, and point GIMP to the folder named Texture.

Here is a look at all the dif dialogs it uses. =)

I've grown to hate that python layer effects script. If you play with it a bit with preview etc then after that you cannot undo anything any more from that moment on in the image you're working in. Is that fixed yet?

I have not had a problem with it, perhaps you need to dl the latest Python script.
