But who knows.

Kevin Cozens knows , for sure he knows because did most of it

Not sure how much is active on the gimp mail list but in case has also a site (obviously dedicated a script fu tiny fu )
http://www.ve3syb.ca/software/tiny-fu/

A may be wrong but i have the sensation that the problem (dialogues that tend to be tall rectangles on screens that are more and more commonly wide or superwide ) still exist because nobody reported to the right person (neither to bugzilla )

Yes i was actually thinking along those same lines PC. I know Onkel has edited some C sources in the GIMP plug-in code so i wonder if he would give it a look. Maybe a hack that is quite simple. Something to automatically cause scripts to double column if sf values are a double digit? For instance if i have a dialog with 20 SF user inputs the script would auto add the second column. Causing it to have 10 value inputs under each column.

Using Graechans Blue Ice script as a reference.

Code: Select all

  SF-STRING     "Text"               "BLUE ICE"
  SF-FONT       "Font"               "Sans Bold"
  SF-ADJUSTMENT "Font size (pixels)" '(350 6 700 1 1 0 1)

  SF-COLOR      "Text Fill Color"         '(174 74 74)

Graechan - thanks for the update

It may take a little time but I'll update all my scripts for 2-10

Hi Graechan.

Have you coded anything with vertical text lately?
In my attempts, the x or y coordinate for the top of the text bounding box does not work for vertical text.
If I'm wrong, maybe you have an example when it works?
Now I have to add some extra code for the border.

Additional request - if you will update, can you include changes in naming such as:
NORMAL-MODE -> LAYER-MODE-NORMAL
ADD-SELECTION-MASK -> ADD-MASK-SELECTION
BACKGROUND-FILL -> FILL-BACKGROUND

(because I am afraid that soon Gimp will only work without compatibility mode with older versions).

Hi Graechan,

I downloaded Snow Cover.scm and installed it on my Gimp 2.10.21 Win10, but it doesn't appear in the expected Menu "script-fu-snow-cover-alpha" "<Image> / Script-Fu / Alpha-to-Logo"

I haven't figured out yet if the problem is due to a new version of the script-fu that I installed to be able to use the new version of Logo Toolbox 2.4, or if the problem would be my version Samj's portable 2.10.21.

I tested with version 2.10.12 using the same script-fu and the Snow Cover Rel 3 script works perfectly.
Thx for the update.

@Krikor

Rod is on the forum very rarely.
Create a new thread (because this is a topic about Snow Cover Script by Greachan) - we'll solve the problem and Rod won't be offended.

Thx!

Getting ready to release ICE Custom Font! :bigthup

I thought this would be a good place to pile some snow on it. :tyspin

Graechan wherever you are! :bigthup

Many Gimp Chat folks are truly missed.

One for you Graechan.

That is an awesome font, Rod thank you for shared! Do you have a script or plugin of it? Do you have a tutorial on how to create it?

Thank you Pocholo! :tyspin

The font name is - A Cut Above The Rest - FREE for personal use
https://www.1001freefonts.com/search.ph ... search.y=3

I created the effect in a 3D program Aurora 3D Maker (for text or logos). Cost is about $50.00 USD.
https://www.presentation-3d.com/products/maker-3d.html

I created each png layer as a separate image (why so big), and then edited as layers in Gimp to create the Custom Font ICE_RD. I actually cut each image down to half its size and still ended up with a huge Custom Font file. (171 MB)
https://sourceforge.net/projects/rods-c ... f/download

Although writing a script for it could be fun. :gimp

I have not messed with Gimps procedural database in quite a while.
