Does this work with the non portable gimp? I'm using gimp 2.10.18 windows 10 64 bit. I asked this question before, and it wasn't answered.

....Soooo test it out for yourself? I don't run Windows and not really interested in this anyway, so can't help here.

I was just curious but I really don't have to test it out since it works in the original version. I do wonder if plugin, simple border (I think that one doesn't work) will ever work again.

Thank you rich2005 for your comments on this issue Post #160.
I will keep trying to find a satisfactory result to this. At the moment I have gimp 2.8.20 on an old machine so can use that if necessary.
My understanding of this Beautyfi Plug-in is that it was built some 8 years ago and has never been updated.
One day someone may come along and help out. Wishful thinking!!!

Just a curiosity:
what do they find so interesting (nice) those who from time to time recall this filter?
Which function/effect really "beautifies" an image?
I remember I played in the past with it, but never had the impression of a function "to preserve" as precious.
Just curiosity...

dinasset, in a general GIMP websearch Beautify still shows up on out-of-date websites as a "must have" "top-ten" "best plug-ins available" sort of thing. I collected the plug-in a couple of years ago when I first started exploring GIMP but after confirming that it worked I never found occasion to use it for anything.

Old plugin, useful in its day. Probably most of the effects are reproducible using other plugins such as gmic. One thing that is still broken is the 'simple-border' plugin. In linux Gimp 2.10.14 it now offsets the mask. Not much in gmic in the way of frames.

MareroQ re-mix might be used just for border effects. I did give it a try for someone and bundled some filters up on dropbox, see: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Plug- ... 1#pid17151

Of course, you can go right back to basics, hands-on using layer masks, some details here: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Easy-Edge-Masks

I found that the simple borders always came out very thin - or am I not doing something?
Never was able to download extra borders (Oh the file downloaded but I didn't see them) I too have more or less given up on it and started making my own now

I have the 'c' file which says gimp_context_set_pattern (_("Clipboard")); In gimp 2-10 it has been changed to "Clipboard Image"
Hands up who would like to change and compile for 2-10

@Graechan.
This patch for simple-border is not enough - I tried :gaah

@Rich2005 - Thanks for sharing the frames (missed before). :tyspin

I've read this somewhere this hint to avoid the usage of "Clipboard"
It can however be obtained in a name/language independent way as the first pattern returned by gimp-patterns-get-list().

In Python:
np,patterns=pdb.gimp_patterns_get_list('')
pdb.gimp_context_set_pattern(patterns[0])

The Graechan code fixes the clipboard error - but there is another bug...

Yes, I think that came in with Gimp 2.10.12 or maybe 2.10.14

Guessing it might not be a simple fix.

Wait, so there is no patch for Simple Border? I'm asking because of MareroQ's post. If there is a patch, where can we find it and how do we install it to beautify? Also, where do you find the extra borders? The only ones I have are from here: https://github.com/hejiann/beautify/wik ... s-Download

I don't know if it's worth taking the time to fix simple-border - no options and no possibility to add your own frames.

I assume you have downloaded the collection provided by Rich2005:
https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code ... o7B5yKsnTV

They are also interesting Harrys Edges:
https://thepluginsite.com/download88356 ... wnload.htm
(... You can use them for whatever you like,
but you need my permission to distribute them...)

Hi MareroQ,
No, I didn't download the collection provided by Rich2005. I didn't know they exsisted until now. I will also check out Harry's Edges. I already use Harry's Filters. :) I won't distribute them. :) Once I have Harry's Edges. and Rich2005's collection where do they go in gimp?

These are very hands on, not at all automated.

An example of use and a couple of scripts here: https://www.gimp-forum.net/Thread-Easy-Edge-Masks

I don't mind if they aren't all automated. So, they don't have a place to go, I'll assume. Just open the folder and use the masks. Am I right?
