I also tried removing all the MrQ mangers to see if their was a problem there.Still didn't work.It loads fine but doesn't initialize.
B&P's first WordArt.py (version 1.0 for Gimp-2.6), did this too.When Sam removed all the gimpfu.py scripting that was embedded it ran fine in Gimp-2.8. B&P had to actually embed the entire gimpfu.py inside the script for the interface to work.

First thing i did was change code's menu path to Image/Filters - i don't like my main menu getting too crowded.
It didn't show up, anyway. As for the B&P's plugins, I installed from their website and don't remember having any problem.
(didn't know there was sam's version).

I believe it was Sam that corrected it for Gimp-2.8 RC version.It ran fine in Gimp-2.6.

Getting it to run in Gimp-2.7

Has anyone gotten this plug-in to work with Gimp-2.7 versions?
If so how did you edit the script?

Re: Getting it to run in Gimp-2.7

Yes I have. You have to start with removing everything from the beginning until you reach: plugin starts here except the import from rows. Add of course the two lines always necessary for pyhton plugins at the top. Add " from gimpfu import * " .
Change the menu row (register section) to your needs and after that and running your plugin you will get a lot of depricated warnings so change that too.

Really? Thanks for that mate! I cannot imagine how it is possible though. Will look at the code and test it tomorrow. The reason I brought gimpfu in is because I wasn't able to override one of its functions. You say, just delete it... then how the hell dialog will appear, as it is defined before "Plugin starts here..." line? i.e. inside gimpfu module code.

I am amazed.

I just installed GIMP 2.7 portable today and some of my plugs work normally, but this one. Thanks again, will learn something here for sure.

Re: Really? Thanks for that mate!

Which function do you mean??

After deleting all the code (and a few modifications) before the line "plugin starts here" the plugin works for me with a nice dialog but if you want another dialog try using Glade or code the plugin in C/C++. For a Glade example look for instance here: http://registry.gimp.org/node/24503.

I was just saying i installed plugins from the dev's website and had no clue there were other versions.
I personally prefer sam's builds but if the stuff's working I don't usually look for other versions. And it this case I didn't.
But if i knew there was sam's or somebody else's version that worked better I'd probably got them. I did not mean sarcasm
or anything, my apologies if i made it sound this way Rod.

Well I did move the gurm menu entry to the to the Image menu, sorry again everyone. Just lazy i guess or maybe 60.

Mikechat · **Joined:** May 23, 2012 **Posts:** 150

to change GURM back to filters menu
start notepad++ open gurm.py file
at the bottom of the file line number 438 in my file

where it reads menu="<Image>/GURM")
change back to menu="<Image>/Filters/GURM") #or depending on the Theme you are using
change back to menu="<Image>/Filter_s/GURM") #or depending on the Theme you are using
change back to menu="<Image>/Filte_rs/GURM") #or depending on the Theme you are using
Save file.

No No i didn't take it in a wrong way or as sarcasm. I was just saying yup i thought it was Sam but i was wrong.

Basically kind of an apology to Sam.

Sadly no.I think i am sticking with MrQ's version.

sallyanne · **Posted:** Tue May 07, 2013 11:04 pm **(#49)**

Just downloaded this. I have never used it before. Where do I put it?

Graechan · **Posted:** Tue May 07, 2013 11:11 pm **(#50)**

Sallyanne I do not think it is ready yet and I would stay with your old gurm for now

Rod · **Joined:** May 16, 2010 **Posts:** 16175

Sally can you copy and paste your old paths from the GURM you have now here in code blocks?
Just a section of your brush paths from the ini file, and the path in the gurm.py file will do.

Thanks.

sallyanne · **Posted:** Tue May 07, 2013 11:49 pm **(#52)**

If I have it already I don't know about it. Where would I find it?

Graechan · **Posted:** Wed May 08, 2013 12:01 am **(#53)**

Sallyanne you can get Gurm from Here

Please read the Install instructions carefully and understand them

sallyanne · **Posted:** Wed May 08, 2013 12:10 am **(#54)**

Thanks

I was hoping to get an OLDER path set of GURM already being used and viable or working.Maybe get an idea that way of why the new one doesn't.
If someone still has GURM 7 installed what are your INI paths and gurm.py path to the ini file.

Graechan · **Posted:** Wed May 08, 2013 1:01 am **(#56)**

Graechan have you tried copying and pasting these into your new GURM ini file?
You know one thing i did notice is the extension area is empty.Should we put the correct extension in there?

Code: Select all

extensions = .pat,.jpg,.png,.tiff,.bmp,.gif,

Rod That looks like the old gurm, if you want gurm download the file from Here, this version works well and I use it in all my 10 gimps, with the one set of resources.
