Ok, I am having quite a time with the bg, I hit B for the red bg and if I let go of of the B the dots turn green. I have to go over areas several time because some of them keep coming back. I haven't got the dark cleared from the hairline yet but I guess I need some more practice.
Other than that, I think it will be great if I can do that



Feel free to give it a try to get the dark from the hairline anyone.

Does this new filter allow for partially/transparent pixels also? Looks like you are having problems with those Molly. For instance the hair.

Also how did you folks get the 32 bit beta to work in GIMP-2.8.10 64 bit?
I tried placing the plugins and dll files in the 32 bit folder but that didn't work. Placing them in the user/.gimp-2.8/plug-ins folder causes a 64 bit error.

I don't know you first question Rod. I didn't see anywhere that gave that feature
The second question is I downloaded the link that grosood posted back a couple posts.
It didn't say what it was for but I installed it in my Fedora (64-bit) plug-ins and it showed up right away.

It's on my to do list to learn python. I've played with modding some scripts, but with mixed results, so my contributions beyond the occasional tutorial when I figure something out I haven't seen posted, are in the future, I'm afraid.

Actually i am trying to install 32 bit G'MiC-1.6.0.1 Beta into my 64 bit GIMP-2.8.10.

Partially transparent pixels refers to areas such as the hair in your image that have some colors that you deem FG and some you deem BG. So the hair FG colors you place a "green" dot on will remain and the rest will be transparent.

Ok i have compiled from the GIT repository ( 64 bit G'MIC-Beta-1.6.0.1) and i still have no reset button on the dialog but i now have (upon hitting Apply) an unresponsive G'MIC. As if it is trying to build the interactive window. No errors at all though.

I could try that Rod. can't hurt, she already looks like a plucked chicken.

This filter could really benefit from zooming in to get the dots on the correct pixels for FG or BG selection. According to David this could take a while to implement. This is an amazing addition to G'MIC though.

This is amazing! So the new code allow to interact in a new window?. Great, a lot of new possibilities for G'MIC.

The filter is very intuitive and easy to use. I'll try the filter on the hair, which is where most of these foreground extraction algorithms suffer a lot.

Thank you very much for the new filter and new features in G'MIC!

Try it on my girl Yafu, I am still playing around with it and it is getting more chopier all the time. grrrr

Finally, I've figured out how to code the zoom feature as well.
It's almost ready, mouse wheel and arrow keys will be used to zoom in/out and navigate in the zoomed view.
'Page down' and 'page up' keys will be then used instead to increase/decrease the background opacity.
Stay tuned

Yep molly, the filter can do a good job in this photo. But this kind of hair and with that background is the real challenge:

So, here are two links to experiment :

Thanks Yafu, I did want to do it with Mia, but I will try the wind blown ones later, I think the script works quite well but has a way to go yet.

I am attempting one more compile with the GIT src files for G'MIC-1.6.0.1 Beta.
David have the GIT src's been updated with this new code?

It's about 4 am CET (+0200) as of this writing. Could be he's taking a nap.

I'm starting a build myself, but nap-time beckons here as well. I'll see what state the toys are in the morning. G'nite, all.

Seems the latest build from GIT doesn't work either. Clicking on Apply only adds a new layer. No new window.
I have tried the src from Sourceforge also and that one actually hangs upon clicking the Apply button. I guess we wait for a possible Samj build. Although i believe she gets src from GIT also. Not sure if it's a DLL issue or something else entirely. Normally you would need only change the gmic-gimp executable file. The DLL files would stay the same.This is what i have done. Pulled all the needed DLL files from mingw's 64 bit directory.

Graechan does the filter crash G'MIC or does it just create a new layer and no new window?

Have you set the options for output for active layer and new layer? When i did this i got a new layer but no new window. If i don't set the options for new layer i get the same results you do. I believe the problem is that the filter can not open a new window. The filter works and adds a new layer but because it receives no FG and BG input the image stays the same. Perhaps something in the new adjustment window code needs to be changed for 64 bit?

Funny thing is the tar file on G'MIC's download page compiled as 64 bit just crashes after clicking Apply or OK.
Totally different results.
