I don't know if there is a place where gimp chat members can request/suggest scripts to be written so here it is.
Suggest/Request scripts here and Script Coders can start pumping out scripts (I guess).
Ideally, you'd suggest to automate a certain tutorial so that script coders know how to proceed.

Gimp chat members can request away/ and I guess one of the script coders can call dibs on that request and start working on it.

Mostly, I am just bored and hungry for another script to write.

Hi Tin.
Recently I came over the Frozen Text tut of Graechan.
I saw Issabella being in trouble, I tried myself and I got lost.
If you succeed in following that tutorial, could you think about writing a script to implement it?
Thanks in advance...
(I know, it looks strange to ask somebody else implementing a tut of Graechan...)

That is weird being that he's script coder I thought he'd have a script of it already.
I'll try to follow his steps once i get some time and see.

Dinasset, a very good proposal. Trandoductin be ready to sweat a little.

Graechan has already written a similar script called Frost Crystals.

Issabella, try that one, to see whether it performs what you're looking for
let's know...

Graechan's script is great! it runs perfect and no problems at all.

Sorry for the thread hijack, trandoductin.

The scripting tutorials discussion has been split to its own thread here.

Great thread, I am looking for a script where it can created dotted lines for the outline of a selection. This is mainly for connect the dots thing.

Do you need the dots numbered?

If not, just use a round brush, increase your spacing and stroke the selection.

If you want numbered, this script: http://silent9.com/incoming/scripts/RMA ... points.scm can number points of a path sequentially, and could be tweaked to make connect the dot style dots with offset numbers.... (you could use it directly in two steps, once specifying Method: "Custom - Below", specify a single period as the Custom Labels, choose the text size to get the dot you want; then on a new layer using Method "Numeric" then manually offsetting the layer to move the numbers off the periods.

RobA what a great idea yours. I've tried to do that, but how I get round ones along the edge? Do you know? Thank you so much

After making the question, I thought how I could do it. Thanks Rob for your idea.

Very nice Issabella, love the color combination. This would look cute on a flower basket.

Yes, Esper. You're right.

Molly, I'll put it on a basket, sure.

I've often wondered if a script could be made to:

1. run the "Height Offset by Value" script with a setting of x offset 125 and invert.



2. Decrease the image width by half.



3. And then run the Emboss filter on it with an azimuth value of 30.



So that I can easily get a good 3D visual image of height map images.

But maybe also give 4 different options for viewing angles. Now this first one gives a good lighting effect for the right angle but to get a left angle it would start with the "Height Offset by Value" with a setting of -125 in the x offset and an azimuth of 220 in the emboss filter. Then the top view would by an "Height Offset by Value" of -125 in the y field and an azimuth of 110. And the bottom view would have a "Height Offset by Value" of 125 in the y field and an azimuth of 300. The azimuths are 0+30, 90+30, 180+30 and 270+30. The resulting images are good representations of 3D values that can be zoomed in and out of.



colorizing the result would be cool too.





PegLeg

Very nice PegLeg. It has very good depth.

Request new scripts/plugins
As for layers - only for Paths:
Select the Paths:
- All
- Invert
- Clear
- Reverse

That is very good. Graechan's script should also show up in scriptfu - alpha to logo - frost crystals.


Have you seen the filter in File - Create - Logos - MS ice cube. I have attached it if you don't have it.
Works a treat if you use it on an appropriate text. I used 'ice sticks'

What would "Select all" or "Clear" do? What is the difference between "Invert" and "Reverse" (by the way there is a "reverse-strokes" script in my collection).
