Metal-Text release 7 [additional menu settings]

RJKD · **Posted:** Sat Jul 09, 2016 4:25 pm **(#81)**

beautiful script Graechan, thank you, I think this will make lovely jewelry. Am I missing a trick or does the image always resize double the size after running the script ? - in Peace RJKD

RJKD, nice result. I only get the results in chrome, too. Please, could you check if it works in another metal type? and if added a 3D effect, it does it? and another thing more, if click on keep selection size, it duplicate always the size ? I have problems with these settings and I don't know if it's only me. Thank you so much.

Very pleasing text results - in Peace RJKD

Issabella & RJKD the 'metal finish type' setting in rel6 definitely works for me in both Scripts

Graechan, thank you so much for your indication. I may have something wrong as it continues producing the results in chrome. What can it be?

Issabella could you post a copy of your script so I could look it over

Thank you Graechan. This is my copy

Oh dear, oh dear there is no way the colors should fail, below↓ is the relevant part or the script

Note!a selection is in place either yours or created by the script
(if (= metal 1) (gimp-context-set-foreground '(255 215 0)));gold
(if (= metal 2) (gimp-context-set-foreground '(192 192 192)));silver
(if (= metal 3) (gimp-context-set-foreground '(250 180 150)));copper
(if (= metal 4) (gimp-context-set-foreground '(166 125 61)));bronze
(if (= metal 5) (gimp-context-set-foreground tint-color));colored tint
(if (> metal 0)
(begin
(set! tint-layer (car (gimp-layer-new image width height RGBA-IMAGE "Tint" 100 MULTIPLY-MODE)))
(gimp-image-add-layer image tint-layer (car (gimp-image-get-layer-position image image-layer)))
(gimp-edit-fill tint-layer FOREGROUND-FILL)
(gimp-selection-invert image)
(gimp-edit-clear tint-layer)
(set! image-layer (car (gimp-image-merge-down image tint-layer 0)))

I usualy do things simply

Thanks Graechan, but I don't understand what you say. What must I do? or Am I doing something wrong? Thank you so much.

Mine didn't even finish. Was supposed to be bronze with a brown grunge background.

Graechan,
I suggest you post HERE the version you work with, there is certainly something different with the one used by other Gimp-chatters

MareroQ · **Posted:** Fri Jul 15, 2016 3:35 am **(#92)**

Hi Issabella.

Graechan made an amendment in line 169:

It was(old):

Code: Select all

(gimp-image-add-layer image tint-layer -1)

It is to be(new):

Code: Select all

    (gimp-image-add-layer image tint-layer (car (gimp-image-get-layer-position image image-layer)))

Now there is no problem.

Thank Graechan.

Thank you so much MareroQ. I didn't understand what Graechan said as I don't understand about codes. :tyspin

Thanks Graechan for solving the problem. :tyspin

It works great! Thank you Graechan and MareroQ. :hi5

I think the metal mesh would be very nice!

I removed the old script and installed the new one.
Look what happened.
