It corrects chromatic aberrations (usually purple fringes) due to certain lens. If your RAW convertor already does that you don't need to worry. Otherwise it can be helpful.

raw converter? I use a point and shoot and all my pics come into the computer as jpg. Sounds like I don't need this unless i start seeing purple fringes!

I had a nice frame script previously and to date it hasnt worked with McGimp...it was frame with bevel....I liked it particularly as it was very smooth with no angular looking mitred corners...just a flow through thing...I'm not even sure wht it was called to tell the truth except that when I try to use it, I get the message in this screenshot. I know it gives a name but I'm not even sure thats what its called because I cant see any evidence of something called that in my scripts at all. And I've tried to locate that name via known sources to no avail as yet.

Pauline,

Can you post the script or send it to me?

Thanks,
Partha

I can't find a script with that exact name...I've been looking for it everywhere I think it must have come as part of a suite of scripts or something...but I'll keep on it till I find it....

I'm thinking it must be in the scripts file otherwise it wouldnt show up on GIMP itself so I have to figure out what its called

I have it in a script called jeschke-mats-and-frames.scm.
At line 196 of your script it should read

Yours seems to be missing the word 'get'

funny then if it was working previously up until this version. but I'll have a look as I have one called, FU_edges_mats-and-frames.scm which suggests its the same one but things just got worse when I changed it....so I have removed the changed version...and replaced it with the original and am back to square one...

There is no such function as "gimp-drawable-image". That is the error that is being reported.
Search for "gimp-drawable-image" in the script you think it is.
If you find it try changing it to "gimp-drawable-get-image".
Or attach your script here for me to have a look at it.
Do you have any tools that let you search for a string inside files. You could search all of your scripts for "gimp-drawable-image". eg: Notepadd++ has this search function, but I do not know if it is a mac program or not.

ok well for a start you need to understand that I am using a Mac and its McGimp (parthas native mac version) I am using on, in this case, Lion...ie: OS X 10.7.4...I'm going to go try it on Mountain Lion before I start fooling round with it....back soon (Notepad is not a mac thing)

Oh, and by the way...I did exactly as you have suggested in changing the line... to read exactly what you said and if you read my earlier post...it created a new problem...so its gone.

Ahogy kívánod.

Dont have a clue what that means

same for Mountain Lion using McGIMP

Pauline,

Feel free to send it to me. My email is on my website.

Done! ty

Sure thing. Let me look into it and I'll get back to you.

Thank you.

grrrr. I was going to refresh my gmic to get samj's chalk filter but today my mcgimp gmic wont work. I took a screenshot for two reasons. one is to see if anyone can figure out what I need to do to make the gmic work again. second is to show you that the mcgimp opened up giant size...larger than it was before. I did not change anything for these changes to happen...I cannot get to the little resize button so how can I make it smaller and then save that setting??? Last time I used mcgimp, the size was fine...not buried under the dock at all...and the gmic was working fine, also.

Try command - to reduce the size maybe or restart the computer ..it should give you the chance to save your work as an xcf
