Selection bevel and Render texture Python plug-ins

[dd]

New and improved Selection bevel

Now with: Preview, and a new compact interface!

Since you guys are so great, you get to try it first before I upload it to the registry... (of course I'm hoping you'll report any possible bugs to me )

Download Selection Bevel 1.5 here:

I love the Preview and New Window!

Hello fellow GIMP's

my statistics are in my sig (which I hope shows up)

I would LOVE to have this Selection bevel but for some reason the python thing doesn't seem to be working. yes, I placed the file in my "/home/cecilia/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins" folder and made sure it was executable. And made sure it's called "bevel1_41.py" without the "txt"

what am I missing?

[PhotoComix]

hu...apparently nothing!!

Start gimp from the terminal with command "gimp --verbose" ...to check what happens when gimp load the plugins at starting time.

copy the terminal output and paste in your next message

[Willy]

*Cough* Did you install GIMP Python Package? *Cough*

I know this is needed for Windows, and I think of Simple things first

[PhotoComix]

no needs for Ubuntu

opss ...maybe you upgraded Python ?
but anyway better start gimp in verbose mode the console output should clear the problem

[Willy]

Thanks PC now I know

[mahvin]

I was thinking along the lines of Pygtk, PyCairo, and Pygobject, do the Linux distros need those? I was thinking no.

But wouldn't they have some dependencies that required the dev versions in Linux?

ok, here ya go...and I can see there are errors but no idea how to fix them.....as Doc McCoy might say, "i'm an artist, not a programmer"

It looks like your ppa version came without the gimp python dependencies. You'll need to download a more complete package that includes it.

[PhotoComix]

"i'm an artist, not a programmer"

me too

But anyway i may see what went wrong, that script doesn't work because no any of your py script works, and they cannot work because a essential part of the gimp python module or was not installed or went MIA

Now become relevant the other question, did you upgrade Python ?

As default the python included in Ubuntu should be sufficently obslolete to be compatible with gimp
but gimp can't support the most recent version (not yet)

Now the python guru here around may help you more but at least we found where exactly is the problem:
for sure , gimpfu modulo is not working
(MAYBE gimpfu is unusable because a too recent version of Python )

[PhotoComix]

Mahvin
do you remember what the higher version of python compatible with gimp 2.6 ?

since i too use Ubuntu i am sure that gimp from official ubuntu repository or from getdeb is not incomplete, i suspect that some other packadge may have requested a too recent version of python

[mahvin]

I wouldn't go beyond 2.6.6. Most older py files won't work beyond 2.6.5, but so far (knock on wood) they have been working for me (but I did recently re-install 2.6.5 so I can't vouch for any recent py files).

Python 2.7 will break your GIMP python plug-ins in 2.6, this I know from actually installing and using it.

[cecilia]

It looks like your ppa version came without the gimp python dependencies. You'll need to download a more complete package that includes it.

you have to tell me exactly what that is and where to find it.

or the exact name so I search for it in the package manager

[mahvin]

Before I make any suggestions, do you have any problem with using the most recent version of GIMP or are you wanting to stay with 2.6.10?

[cecilia]

Before I make any suggestions, do you have any problem with using the most recent version of GIMP or are you wanting to stay with 2.6.10?

I generally don't have any issues with my GIMP.....I'm not sure why I wouldn't get updates.

as long as I have a stable version of GIMP I don't care what the number is

[cecilia]

just don't ask me to compile...that's way too scary

I don't want to mess up my linux

[PhotoComix]

No worry you don't have to compile

If you are sure that you have python and is 2.6.5
(you may check from System & Administration /synaptic... just type python in its search)
then again from synaptic type gimp and mark it for complete unistall
(you may wish first
made a back up of script brush etc, i see you have a lot of extra scripts )

last i got my 2.6.11 copy from here http://www.getdeb.net/updates/Ubuntu/10.04/?q=gimp worked well and had python module included

to install...well you see the button on that page...didn't you?
Click it, give permission and will be done !

but please before unistall/reinstall gimp check that your python is NOT NEWER then 2.6.5

I use webupd8.

The link is here: http://www.webupd8.org/2010/10/install- ... u-ppa.html (this is for GIMP 2.6.11)

If you want to stick with 2.6.10 (for reasons of your own) you can read here:

http://www.webupd8.org/2010/07/gimp-261 ... d-ppa.html

Ironically, I used webupd8 because getdeb didn't have 2.6.11 available yet, when I checked at the time it was released by GIMP.org. Sometimes the GIMP geeks get things done faster than the Debian peeps, and most definitely faster than the Ubuntu crowd for sure.

If you are sure that you have python and is 2.6.5

yes, I checked the package manager

I'll check the other links, thanks.....
