pm_jean_texture_embroidery_text.py

[Pocholo]

I seem around here a couple of "Embroidery efects", I want to share another own script using just GIMP filters, (Sinus filter, layerfx.py). I recreated the denim texture and the embroidery effect using "Sinus filter". Any way, comments are welcome!

Ps **Make sure you have the "layerfx.py" before you run this script.



**Multi line text added

I'm having problems with this one.

"Stroke Warning"
Getting Error: Illegal value for argument 2.

Code:

    dialog.res = run_script(params)

Little problem

[Pocholo]

It seem that the Layerfx on this particular line it's not working for Issabellas portable version and for Racer Linux?

Code:

pdb.python_layer_fx_stroke(img, copyLayer,
                     (160, 160, 0),   #color
                              40,   #opacity
                              42,   #mode-dodge
                              3,   #size
                             100,  #position
                           FALSE)   #merge

I like MareroQ multi line effect, so I added to the second version with an extra line spacing and multi lines.

[Issabella]

Sorry Pocholo, I get a new error message.

As advised by Mareroq - put your layers in legacy mode before running the script

[Issabella]

MareroQ and nelo, thanks for your help. I have one only layer before running the script. and how set the layer to legacy mode? if if it is there, the script doesn't work properly either
Thanks.

[MareroQ]

In my opinion, two changes to the code are needed because 2x the new mode was used for calling layerFX (safest as values, not name - because there are different versions).

In pm_jean_texture_embroidery_text version 2
line 115
replace:

Code:

42,    #mode-dodge

to:

Code:

16,     # LAYER-MODE-DODGE-LEGACY (16)

line 142
replace:

Code:

LAYER_MODE_MULTIPLY,   #mode

to:

Code:

3,   # LAYER_MODE_MULTIPLY_LEGACY (3)

[Issabella]

MareroQ, Thank you so much for your help. I changed the lines you said in spite of being afraid of changing a code I don't understand, I did it and ... YES!!!!!! it works great now and no problem at all. I'm happy as I like this effect so much.
Good!!!!!

[Issabella]

Thanks Pocholo.

[Graechan]

Still fails on my machine

[racer-x]

Try the new LayerFX that MareroQ just modified. It should work then without modifications.

@ Issabella, I'm glad you took MareroQ advise and got it fixed. Thanks for the comment!

I'm running the script on the original version GIMP 2.10.20 and it do not distinguish if it is in "Default Mode or Legacy Mode. But I see the error showed in Issabella and Graechan is on the Portable version. I don't know what SamJ changed in his portable version that make this constant error in the Mode option.

@ Graechan, I guess you're going to do what MareroQ explained, change the Layer Mode option to Legacy.

[Graechan]

Pocholo everything now OK, after studying the error and your file I added the layerFX-2-10 file, sorry to bother you with what I should have fixed

[Pocholo]

No problem my friend, I'm glad you fixed it.
