They differ only in the way they crash

Okay i changed the density and that worked.
I can not run the script over 26 in density or it will error.

Hope that helps ofnuts.

I will download 02 and see if that works.

Okay i installed the new 02 version and ran with the defaults - ran perfect no errors.
So i decided why not flip through randomly and make some changes (shown ), and run it again to be sure and i get this error again.

I shouldn't have said "it quits" actually it just throws the "9" error, and then leaves the image in an undo state.

Sorry about that ofnuts.

Hmm. The only file the script handles (implicitly) is the gradient it creates on-the-fly for each ellipse. The gradient is called "#Random ellipse#" (and if it exists already, Gimp renames it to "#Random ellipse##1","#Random ellipse##2"... etc). Anything special with your gradients directory?

Nope just a few added SVG gradients.

WAIT! - i do have a number of gradients with a name like "sepia-#1" , 'Photo-Palladium-#1"
Would that make a difference? cause i can just rename them.

Normally that shouldn't make any difference...

I also got the error (Windows XP + GIMP 2.6.7) running it on the default new image (640x400) and default values for the plug-in.

By removing your "try... exception" code and just running with the r=randomEllipseRenderer r.run code I then got the traceback:

Code: Select all

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\lib\gimp\2.0\python\gimpfu.py", line 692, in response
    dialog.res = run_script(params)
  File "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\lib\gimp\2.0\python\gimpfu.py", line 353, in run_script
    return apply(function, params)
  File "D:\Profiles\xxxx\.gimp-2.6\plug-ins\random-ellipses-0.2.py", line 259, in randomEllipse
    r.run()
  File "D:\Profiles\xxxx\.gimp-2.6\plug-ins\random-ellipses-0.2.py", line 224, in run
    ellipse=self.newEllipse()
  File "D:\Profiles\xxxx\.gimp-2.6\plug-ins\random-ellipses-0.2.py", line 123, in newEllipse
    print 'New ellipse: %s' % ((x,y,size,flat,tilt),)
IOError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor

So I commented out the print 'New ellipse: %s' % ((x,y,size,flat,tilt),) line and it ran without error.

Thanks Kevin.

- even at a density of 93 it works very nicely ofnuts.
I went ahead and tried many variations and all are excellent.

Hey i tried it in Windows XP 32 bit Gimp versions 2.7.4, and Gimp-2.6.11 and it works in both.

Thanks Ofnuts.
