[Q] A small script mod concerning layer names?

Lumo · **Joined:** Jul 19, 2014 **Posts:** 31

I'm using Will's Merge Animation script. It's a good script, but it deletes all my layer names.

The offending line is this one:

Code: Select all

 (gimp-drawable-set-name templayer1 (string-append "Frame " (number->string (+ 1 counter))))

Does anyone know how to change it so that the script retains the name of the lower layer in each merge operation?

Thanks

Just comment out that line of code by placing a ; in front, save it and refresh scripts (or restart GIMP). It will retain the original layer names.

Well done. I'm not into making animations but I like them when well done.
