But what is more Important, the original radius requested or the original Image size?

Who says you cant have a predetermined radius, and if the user is off, by chance, just throw out an if-then-else statement?

I believe it is more Important to keep the original Image size if possible and in this case it is by changing radius to 'nominal radius'
also (width (car (gimp-image-width image))) could be (width (car (gimp-drawable-width layer))) and add the new layers above the active layer rather at top

Okay,
I put drawable's width and height as suggested.
And I put -1 as default radius if radius is -1 It'll try to fit the shapes to the active layer's width.
updated post #1 to release 4.

Will it also add the new layers above the active layer

whoops forgot that, just added it now release 5. :hehe

[align=center]above and in the same layer group
(gimp-image-insert-layer image newlayer (car (gimp-item-get-parent oldlayer)) (+ (car (gimp-image-get-layer-position image oldlayer)) stack));stack 0=above 1=below ;oldlayer= the active layer

or (gimp-image-insert-layer image newlayer (car (gimp-item-get-parent oldlayer) -1)

I just did a house then circle then realized they combine to make a tombstone shape so i added "Tombstone" shape. (Release 6, in Post #1)

Sweet!

And Halloween is just around the corner too.

Hey if you can create a triangle you can add a circle and get a ice cream cone. :hi5

added Ice cream cone shape (I tried triangle but the left and right of triangle is so narrow couldn't really see text so I didn't add it).

Shame you can't add the triangle just yet. But the cone is cool!

Thanks Tran.

Any chance this can be made to work for any selection instead of a pre-determined shape?

trandoductin · **Posted:** Sat Sep 10, 2016 11:07 am **(#36)**

nope at least not by me...i don't know how to calculate arbitrary shapes.

trandoductin · **Posted:** Sat Sep 10, 2016 11:08 am **(#37)**

here's something to think about, instead of (gimp-edit fill) for the bkg offering a translucent effect with gimps Xach effect

I could show you how to add this to the script
