Symmetry diagonal

Thu Jul 11, 2019 10:28 am

This plugin is a combination of codes and idea based by code:

- Tin Tran "Fill_rotate.py" https://gimplearn.net/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1393
- Ofnuts "ofn-symmetries.py" (2016-09-29) https://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-tools/files/scripts/ofn-symmetries.zip/download
Thank you to the coding masters. :hi5

In menu GIMP: Filters->Distorts->Symmetry->Symmetry by diagonal...

It's a bit easier to play with the effects of various symmetries - and it will be a continuation ...

Rel.2

Add options: Size of the new image, Mirror by central axis(choose an area),Remove prepared square.

This plugin can be used for various purposes (eg easy creation of seamless patterns) but it was created as a complement (to prepare the source and to process the final) plugin symmetry_tile.py (with a great option to create your own compositions using a string)

The original plugin works without any problems for Gimp 2.10 but for my own needs I modified it a bit
(I added the number of tiles and disassembled the multiply mode for individual presets).

These symmetry groups are identical to the symmetry tab in Inkscape's tiled clones dialogue.

Always thought its something the Inkscape developers made up, but the links says:

The IUC notation is the notation for the symmetry group adopted by the International Union of Crystallography in 1952.
