Unbound variable floating-sel Help!

This is a question for any experience script-fu coders. I been having an error on the line (gimp-floating-sel-anchor floating-sel) "eval: unbound variable: floating-sel". :gaah

Thank you in advanced.

Code: Select all

(define (script-fu-create-heart)
    (let* (
        (img  (car (gimp-image-new 500 500 RGB)))
        (layer (car (gimp-layer-new img 500 500 RGB-IMAGE "Background" 100 LAYER-MODE-NORMAL)))
      (theheart (car (gimp-layer-new img 500 500 RGB "Heart" 100 LAYER-MODE-NORMAL)))
      
      
      )


      ;Create the Background
        (gimp-image-undo-disable img)              ; Disable undo during the image creation
        (gimp-image-insert-layer img layer 0 0)
      (gimp-context-set-foreground '(000 000 00))
      (gimp-drawable-fill layer FILL-FOREGROUND)
      
      ;Create the heart layer
      (gimp-image-add-layer img theheart -1)
      (gimp-layer-add-alpha theheart)
      (gimp-drawable-fill theheart FILL-TRANSPARENT)
      
      ;Create the heart image
      (gimp-image-select-ellipse img  2 60 105 385 285)
      (gimp-image-select-rectangle img  1  30  50  440  200)
      (gimp-image-select-ellipse img  0 58 143 385  215)
      (gimp-context-set-foreground '(221 0 0))
      (gimp-drawable-edit-fill theheart FILL-FOREGROUND)
      (gimp-item-transform-rotate theheart  45.00  TRUE   250.50  268.00)
      (gimp-floating-sel-anchor floating-sel)

Hello,

I suppose "floating-sel" was in the copy/paste from console.

Replace "floating-sel" by the name of layer you are using in this part of script... probably "theheart".

I'm not sure the procedure used is useful.
What do you want exactly at this moment of script ?

Have fun.

There is a floating selection created by the "Rotate tool" (gimp-item-transform-rotate theheart 45.00 TRUE 250.50 268.00) and I want to anchor or set the floating selection.

I know the saying "You cannot teach new tricks to an old horse" Thank you for your explanation JimmyMarco. I took a second look and I found what I did wrong. When I created a "selection" on the image and I filled the selection, I forgot to "Select> None". Somehow when I rotated the image without getting rid of the selection, it created a floating selection that I could not got rid off. I manage to do (gimp-selection-none img) and then rotate the image and that worked.
