New G'MIC filter 'Patterns / Weave'

Having read the very nice tutorial from ek22 about applying a weave effect for image, I couldn't stop myself trying to automate it as a G'MIC script.
So here it is, a new filter located in 'Patterns / Weave' that does the job (not exactly the same steps as the tutorial but looks close anyway) :

Thanks ek22 for the nice idea. Hope you'll like this version as well.
The filter should be available after a filter update.

Can't have too many methods for creating weaves David. Thanks.

Yeah, this is pretty awesome. I approve of this message. Amazing how you get this from my incoherent illustrated rambling.

I've done some improvements on this filter, so now, the rendering can be also very close to the one natively provided with GIMP. But with G'MIC, you have the preview !

Cool; hoping the lines (striations or whatever you call it) would be added as an option.

This is a really nice plugin.

I played with it a little the other day. Thanks David!!

I've done a small update of the filter so that you can orient the pattern, like this :

It better handles RGBA images as well.

Ha, as I said in another thread, sometimes it is easier to write code than doing it by hands :mrgreen:

My word! You turned this script into a new dimension. Now I need this in my G'MIC.

tried to do the weave thinner but 'lost' the image

very pretty sallyanne. I love the way the red shows through.

Nice one Sallyanne !
If you reduce the thickness of the stripes, then I suggest you raise the Density slider as well, to get more image informations available on the final rendering.

I've done another small update that allows to create curved weave patterns, like this :

I find it to be looking very nice like this.

This one has lot's of possibility.

G'MIC Patterns/Weave, duplicate layer
Top layer, Overlay mode, Transform horizontal
Background layer, G'MIC Colors/Abstraction

This background was used above.
Sphere pattern, G'MIC Artistic/Dream smoothing.
MathMap, Map, Sphere.
