Not been active lately - new home in the family - new baby in the family - lots of jobs to stop me from having this sort of fun. Just had time and will power to see what others were up to. Seems to have been a very productive time for filters, scripts and general creativity since GimpChat returned to normal business.

Just begun to work on an extra feature to incorporate into the next version of my joined up text script. I wanted to add a trail type effect to gradually enlarge or decrease the text as it flowed along a path. Starting to get somewhere but I have found the lack of general information about manipulating paths a big hinderance. Thank goodness for Ofnuts and Trandoductin - without their scripts to use as tutorials I would have got absolutely nowhere!

Anyway - a couple of images to show the (limited) progress so far...



and...

Looks good. Hope you get it working soon!

Knowing your determination and dedication, it won't be long before we have this function at our disposal, IMO - this will be a great feature.

Pretty soon you will get similar results to Pingotec. Cool stuff.

Lyle, do you know how that is done?

Hiya....sounds great. Where can I find your first script of joined up writing please?

Luljk:
Interesting - new to me - very interesting.
