This plugin creates a simple "Bottle crown cap", you have the option to change the Size and the color. You need to have layerfx.py and the "shape-path-091.scm (included in the folder) installed, before you run this plugin. Please leave comments. This plugin was created inspired by Conbagui's tutorial found here: http://fav.me/damoiiu



Revised version #2
I manage to make the Cap color clearer and added text option.

Revised version #3
With the help of MareroQ, I learned a bit how to make the script resize the text and center to the Cap. Thank yo MareroQ

From the examples it looks like a good plugin but why are the first 2 bottle caps and the last one blurry? The green one is the best one out of all four images.

Hi Pocholo.

Do You accept a tiny bit of text layer addition?

Yes MareroQ, please upload your revised version so I can compare with mine.

You know, I'm still trying to learn how to write text inside artwork and everything else. As the matter of fact, I posted the script code and tried to see who of the experienced coder will help or teach me how to do it. But no luck, I had about 80 users looking at the post but nobody answer. Maybe it's a time zone matter.

I guess, 90% of my self-learning has been looking at other scripts and trying to figure out "how to" by myself. You, at least take my scripts and add things or make it better (fix it). By looking at my scripts that you make add ons, it give me some ideas and how to make the code better . Thanks for putting some interest on my scripts.

This is my GUI version, I manage to put some text.

Typically, this type of plug-in (text + effect + decorative background) is written starting with the text.
You reversed the order - so hence a little problem.
It is difficult to fit text into a selected area with unpredictable text length, number of lines and font type.
To solve this problem, the text must be scaled to the cap size and centered (but probably for the sake of quality it is better to add the text manually - because with the layers preserved, you can further edit).
The least important note is the size of the cap's border (background) but as I wrote before = you left the layers for further editing, so simple use:
Image -> Crop to Content.
Let me know how you download the example - to remove it.

ps. An experienced programmer does not have time for this.

Edit: As announced, the attachment was removed

Thank you so much, MareroQ, I downloaded the example And used it.

I've tried all three ... but still get error. Then made it through the tutorial.
Update: It has been fixed .. layer fx was in it twice and that collides.

@Jappaloe1963

What error are you getting in Ver.3?
Maybe you haven't installed the required additional plugins?
Works flawlessly for me.

I tested out the plugin and it threw an error:

I'm not sure which version it is because I downloaded all of them but I will assume it is version 3 since they all say pm_create_bottle_cap.py.

The font Loki Cola is free for personal and commercial use:

The font used in the text, Coca Cola ii is free and can be found here and : https://fonts2u.com/coca-cola-ii.font

jappaloe1963 and Mackenzie, the plugin work fine. Download the Revised version 3. Since the all have the same name, make sure you delete the older version from your plugins folder, before placing the new so you don't get confuse.

Pocholo,
I still get the same error when using version number 3:


The version of layerfx.py, I'm using is the one for gimp 2.10 which is LayerFX-2.10.py.
Your version of layerfx.py doesn't work for me.

That is your layerfx> Color Overlay. There is something wrong with your layerfx.py.
Can you open the plugin on a text editor and copy and paste here, from line: 186 through 190?

LayerFX-2.10 works for the rest of your scripts except this one. I will try layerfx.py to see if that is the problem.

EDIT: Pocholo, your script works. Layerfx.py is what makes it work

That is the layerfx that got modified by MareroQ. I ran the plugin with the LayerFX-2.10 and I did not get any error.

@Mackenzieh.

Is Your malfunctioning LayerFX-2.10 version the same as here:
https://www.gimpscripts.net/2020/09/new ... x-210.html ?

That's the one that gave me an error but. the one you put in the folder (layerfxpy), didn't. I now have both versions.

No. The LayerFX-2.10 version, I have is from here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=18682&hilit=LayerFX+2.10 (Post #7)

Hi Mackenzieh.

These are the same versions - You can try again:
in line 190, instead of True, enter 0 (zero)

I have the .PY version of Layer-FX2.10. When I looked into the Layer-FX2.10 coding, line 190 says this: "Saturation (legacy)", LAYER_MODE_HSV_SATURATION_LEGACY,

@Mackenzie - I don't think MareroQ meant the Line 190 in the layerfx.py plugin. He meant Line 190 in the Bottle cap plugin.
Open the script in a Text editor and on Line 190 replace the word "True", with uppercase "TRUE". And try it to see if that change anything.
