pm_create_a_depthmap_image.py (Test)

[Pocholo]

Hello guys! Can anyone with Linux test this plugin I just wrote. It creates a simple Depth map and It's working in Windows though.

Instructions
1. Open the image you want to work with.
2. Create a selection of the object you want to use for 3D
3. Run the plugin and Export the image as : example_depth.jpg
you need to use the "_depth" after the name and before the extension.

I guess it works here in Linux. No idea what to do with the image created however......

Racer:
I have Linux Mint. Are you using 2.8 or 2.10 ?
I seem to be having either errors or not appearing at all while using 2.8
Thank you

Running Linux Mint 20.1 and Gimp 2.10.22. Gimp 2.8 is very old, you really should move up to 2.10x.

Not going to work with Gimp 2.8 - the parameters are set up for Gimp 2.10 syntax.

fails here:

Code:

  File "/media/rich/Data/gimp-2.8-port/plug-ins/pm_create_a_depthmap_image.py", line 46, in pm_create_a_depthmap_image
    grayLayer = pdb.gimp_layer_new(img, img.width, img.height, RGB, "Gray selection", 100, LAYER_MODE_NORMAL)
NameError: global name 'LAYER_MODE_NORMAL' is not defined

Not difficult to fix, however it does use the gmic plugin and the gmic plugin also has a very comprehensive depth map filter in the Stereoscopic 3D section.

Thank you all
I am on Mint 19.3 and just loaded up to GIMP 2.10 and gmic but still having problems..
I will go to an appropriate thread for that

This is a really interesting filter. I have some Halloween images i would try and bw/color with
the depth it might look kool
Similar to making a b/w image with only one object in color

That is correct - I am in 2.10.14 now and i got Diego's A and B working just fine
but GIMP doesnt recognize this plug-in stored in the same folder path

Should work: This in my (k)ubuntu 18.04 (same as Mint 19) and Gimp 2.10.14

Usual suspects:
Is the plugin executable ?
Does gimp_gmic_qt work and is it updated ?
