Gimp Improve/sharpen

hardy111 · **Joined:** Jun 16, 2016 **Posts:** 137

Hi there,
with my Gimp version 2.8.14 there was a script
called sharpen under filter improve. The script is
no longer available in version 2.10.12.

Is it still possible to download somewhere?

Best regards, Hardy

Taken from a portable windows 2.8.22 version.

Hello Nelo,
thank you very much that was exactly the plug-in I was looking for.
Also works without problems under 2.10.12.

Best regards, Hardy

There is no need to bring over the old sharpen filter, it's already included in Gimp 2.10x. Just search for it using the "/" key on your key-board.

You can even put it back in the menus:

Edit the pluginrc file and:

- locate the string "_Sharpen..."
- replace the "0" in the next line by "1"
- under that line insert "(menu-path "<Image>/Filters/Enhance")"

So the file should look like:

Code: Select all

(plug-in-def "${gimp_plug_in_dir}/plug-ins/sharpen/sharpen" 0
    (proc-def "plug-in-sharpen" 1
         "Make image sharper (less powerful than Unsharp Mask)"
         "This plug-in selectively performs a convolution filter on an image."
         "Michael Sweet <mike@easysw.com>"
         "Copyright 1997-1998 by Michael Sweet"
         "1.4.2 - 3 June 1998"
         "_Sharpen..."
         1
        (menu-path "<Image>/Filters/Enhance")
        (icon icon-name -1 "")
         "RGB*, GRAY*"
         4 0
        (proc-arg 0 "run-mode" "The run mode { RUN-INTERACTIVE (0), RUN-NONINTERACTIVE (1) }")
        (proc-arg 13 "image" "Input image")
        (proc-arg 16 "drawable" "Input drawable")
        (proc-arg 0 "percent" "Percent sharpening (default = 10)")))

This will even survive changes in other plugins that would cause the pluginrc file to be updated.
