Selection bevel and Render texture Python plug-ins

[PhotoComix]

@cecilia
don't get confused you may chose mine or mahvin link both are safe ,both will work,

[PhotoComix]

well mine don't require copy & paste command in the terminal but for the rest no much difference

[cecilia]

hmmm, as I have an "AMD Athlon ll P320 Dual Core Processor" I should avoid any "AMD64 versions" it seems to me

unless I'm misunderstanding.....

anyway, what is the difference between the GIMP I have now and the 2.6.11 ??

other than the python working....

[mahvin]

Stability. Bug fixes, enhancements, etc. They have the change log updates on GIMP.org.

Python should work with both as Mahvin said difference is bugfix

Not sure if you should avoid AMD 64: your computer is enabled for 64 bit but you may have installed a 32 bit ubuntu (not the contrary )

anyway ubuntu installer are smart if the wrong version for your computer will simply refuse to install popping a clear error message

ok, the good news is that GIMP installed fine, and the bevel thingy works (WOOT!)

and I started GIMP up a few times including vis the terminal just to see if there are still any problems:

looks like a few things need a clean up but at least I have a working GIMP

thanks guys

You can officially change your sig info now, and you're welcome!

[PhotoComix]

look all fine except

script-fu-Warning: Error while loading /home/cecilia/.gimp-2.6/scripts/ev_iccii_photoeffects.scm:
Error: unmatched parentheses: 1

a parentheses Missed In Action after copy& paste the script (usually the first or the last )

And few other scripts with messy registration paths

well, I'll deal with that tomorrow - esp as i didn't write those scripts and am not sure how to change them (without making them worse)

I'm off to bed now to dream wonderful GIMP dreams

Hi cecilia, hope you get your plugins working. I also suggest you download the new updated version of selection bevel. (note that you'll have to remove the old 1.41 file from the plugin directory if you do!)

I have now uploaded Bevel 1.5 in the registry. I suggest everyone who likes this script to upgrade asap, the preview function comes real handy.

The new version also lets you select any layer mode, instead of just 4 of them. I just tried doing a bevel on multiply, and it works nice when you add another thinner bevel on soft light on top of it... (yeah I know, it's not like you couldn't change the layer mode yourself before... but this saves you the trouble! )

[Rod]

My rubbery contribution

[dd]

Not bad rod.

How about these:

[Rod]

I really like the idea of putting in the preview that was cool.
This plug-in has really become quite nice.

[mahvin]

Would it be too much to ask for people to post a screenshot of your settings for the bevel examples? They all look so cool!

[PhotoComix]

Dd
a preview for python script ? that is rare ,compliment ,going to dl the new version

[dd]

Thank you. It's not really a "proper" preview like in plugins, it's like the one in layerfx that creates the preview on a temporary layer... but it's still useful I think.

And yeah, it took me a while to figure out how to get it to work... big thanks to paynekj for helping me out with gtk stuff.

Next, I'm planning on a feature that attaches a parasite to the bevel layer so that it "remembers" the settings it was made with, so you can redo it easily with the same settings if you want to change the shape.

But before that, I'm going to update my texture script, give it a preview & interface-revamp as well.

Here's mine. I didn't change the settings very much and wavered back and forth a little.

@dd - clever way to add a preview that works with Python. I also really like having a reset button. That's an added bonus.

[dd]

here's another with settings:



text colour is b0af6c

[dd]

And another... here I used bevel first, then curves on the bevel layer...



I'm thinking of including this curves step as an option on the bevel... it creates a nice "gloss" type effect.
