Here I didn't get the right effect.

I also installed it and got the same result as Issabella.
I once made it myself via a tutorial.

OMG I'm soooooooooooooooooooooo sorry. :bawl

I did it again. I put the wrong py file in the folder. That was the test that you and 15 more users have.

*** I reuploaded the right file this time

Please please please.... Download it again and use it.

Well done! I'm not a fan of multi-colored gradients, so I changed that.

Thank you Racer. Yes, you can use any color. I just chose the colored gradient to emphasize the look, but any color should be fine.

Is there a possibility to add another gradient in the script?

In case you have not see your PM, uploaded version_2. Added an option for gradients.

It works fine, thank you!

Hey Pocholo, have you considered allowing the plug-in to map to all 4 options? I've gotten it to work on 3.

0, 1, 2

I have not tried cylinder yet. This is sphere. Of course it needs the correct sphere inputs but...

I had to omit the rotation with Map object on the second version, because it was running too slow to rotate the text in the angle I wanted it. So I use the Rotate tool and the Scale tool to do the trick and it runs faster on the text. Anyway, thanks for the input. :coolthup

Ps. I'm glad you're messing around with my plugins. Sometimes I thing, not too many users are interesting on them here and they just went to the "forgetting drawer". :hehe

Actually it's really great to see folks still interested in creating new filters for Gimp. :bigthup

Thank you Pocholo for all your hard work. :hi5
