Hi - I am looking for a script that can draw arrows.

Ideally it would allow for a high degree of control and customization.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

ArrowsCreator-0.3

Post subject:  Re: Draw arrow script recommendations
The only problem with ArrowsCreator-0.3 is it does not work with Gimp 2.10 The 2.8 version number is in the code, defining paths. Tried tweaking the code but IMHO over-complicated. Needs someone more interested than me. Maybe it works if you still have a legacy /.gimp-2.8 folder

ArrowsCreator-0.4 does work in linux, but a try in Win10 / Gimp 2.10.12 and fails with a general wire-read error. I suspect one of those incompatible python issues.

Which I will not recommend unless you want to spend 2 hours to understand which level of directory should be in the plugin folder!
I just spent 2 hours reading 3 times how to install it and still never get it to appear in the menu, it's a big mess of files and folders with naming in German (this makes things worse as I don't understand German) as well as .zip inside zip... :gaah

But like they said there is always a first time, thus my first time I cannot make a python plugin appear in the menu and not knowing why :hit

On the other hand, I know now when Debian 0.01 was created although in the pdf he does not tell why it was called Debian (it's Debra+Ian if you don't know), I did pass on the Manjaro history, though.
I mean... the help pdf is as cluttered as the plugin. Who need to know the History of Linux to put a plugin in GIMP?

No I did not woke up on the wrong side of the bed, just those 2 hours lost for nothing :(

Hi PixLab.

This problem seems to be only in Linux. :hehe :mrgreen: :rofl
It's just 3 simple steps (apart from unpacking):

1. Folder HN_Bibliothek to Home directory/Modules
2. Folder HN-Pfeil-zeichnen to Home directory/plug-ins
3. Folder tool-presets to Home directory.

But I agree with you on one thing - I would prefer only English names.

The way you explain it with 3 tiny sentences, I instantaneously understood, simple, straight to the point, easy peasy, :yes
Thank you so very much MareroQ :tyspin

But I did removed it, things I did not like, might be a cultural thinking/thing or workflow of mine,
for instance I don't understand if I "bend" the path why it does not follow it (screenshot above), and instead I DO need to select another "Style/Appearance of arrow" for it to work,
Also the plugin kind of never close, when I restart it after closing it GIMP tells me it is still running... :huh
