Interesting. If i use black for both grout and wall it crashes. When i select white and white i get this.Which is more of a gray on black grout. But it does run the plugin through its entirety.

Hoping to create a solid wall behind the neon effect. Doesn't seem to work with any color but white. And then that isn't really a solid color. More like a 3D grayish brick wall.

Hope that all helps for fixing the error. Great plugin though! :bigthup thx!

That is because the Brick pattern that is created before for the wall have a transparency on the shape, and black at the edges of the shape.

P.s If you want a solid color then it will be a separate option in the script.

Another problem is that the top left corner of round rectangle isn't correct, there is a slight angle:

A problem with sel2path but then such paths can be created directly.

That is an issue that I have to bring up with the Neon Sign Welder. :hehe
I guess "Rounded Rectangle" or the "Rectangle select tool" doesn't respod smoothly on corners.
When you Select to Path the selection the Path is deformed as you see in the image.

On a text layer you should get the path using pdb.gimp_vectors_new_from_text_layer(image, layer).

Yes, you're right. Thank you for pointing that out. When I zoomed it, I notice the jaggety edges and distortion. :bigthup

Probably better to use the plugin to create one image, then use the parts to create an animation. Then you can use whatever background you'd like.

Thank you for sharing this exciting plugin update! The addition of a brick wall and neon sign with three frame shape options is fantastic. The versatility offered by rounded square, square, and rounded frames allows for creative customization. Moreover, the small blinking animation feature is a game-changer, adding dynamic charm to designs. Kudos to the developers for continually enhancing functionality. Can't wait to explore the possibilities this plugin brings to our projects!


Um... Are you human?
I start to see way too much AI texts everywhere, like on Youtube (for example)...
AI(s) have a very specific way of writing, and now I could say that I can smell those from 3 km away (even when re-written), but... I can be wrong! -> thus I wanted to check...

Nice one Patrice. AI is used to write books and articles now-a-days.
