GIMP Version: 2.8.14
Operating System: Windows
OS Version: windows 10
GIMP Experience: New User

i'm using colorize to change the color of a lot of icon's
each icon will be changed to 36 different color's
i have the lightness at -35 for each icon
i have the saturation at 100 for each icon
now i increase the hue by 10 per each icon
to create a rainbow like effect.
now my question, is their a way for me to copy the setting of the 36 different icon's
and be able to paste that to a different 36 icon's so this way i have less work to do.
or
is their an alternative method to do this?
keep in mind i have to do this for a lot more icon's that are on the same image.
it's an icon set. each icon is 32x32

i'm still really new at this..

Here is a "Hue" script that creates animations of hue changes.
Just select all and copy into notepad or notepad ++ and name it as animation-hue.scm and then save to your scripts folder. You will find it under Script-Fu>Animations

Code: Select all

            SF-ADJUSTMENT _"Color Step"  '(45 1 360 1 10 0 1)
            )

To use just color your first icon the hue you want it and run the script. Put in the dropdown how many changes (icons) you have to color and click ok. Save each layer as a new icon image. Edit>Copy>Edit> paste as >new image.

i'm having a tough time saving this script in the proper location.
am i looking for Script-Fu>Animations under the gimp 2 folder?
or is their a place i go to within the program itself.
i never added scripts to gimp before.

The location is C:\Users\Your User Name\.gimp-2.8
This is where you'll find the scripts folder.

Add Gimp *.scm scripts to the user folder. The path is independent of a script or plug-in menu location in Gimp.

Code: Select all

~/.gimp-2.8/scripts/
