Request: Update scripts

d4rkheart · **Joined:** Jul 21, 2012 **Posts:** 103

Hi to everyone.
Is possible update two interesting scripts for gimp2.8?
http://gimpfr.org/pub/scripts-2.2/alan_ ... s-view.scm
and
http://gimpfr.org/pub/scripts-2.2/alan_ ... -align.scm
Thanks.

They probably were useful scripts back in the day (circa gimp 2.2 - 2.4)
Today: First script functionality is realized in Shift-click on 'eye' and 'link' icons to show/hide/link/unlink all layers/current layer.
Second script has become the Align Tool.

yes, but first script is interesting because you can make visible automatically the first, third, fifth, seventh, ninth layers hiding the others layers or vice versa (second,fourth, sixth, eighth, tenth..etc), with second script you can change align pixel, see image...

These scripts works only on gimp 2.2.

sorry for my english.

You're right, it's not possible to hide/unhide every other layer with Shift-click.
Still don't understand what's so unique about second script. Can you define 'pixel'? Is it a selection?
As far as script goes, it moves/aligns layers. No?

With the first script your can make all layers visible (save the active one) or invert the visibility of layers, but you can't from a stack of all visible layers, show only every other one. At some point you have to manually select every other layer yourself. Surprising it doesn't work in 2.8. But just a SMOP in Python (the longest bit is the registration, the rest is mostly one-liners). A good project for someone who want to start coding python scripts

Adding an entry to select every other layer is left as an exercise.

Nothing in the second script that cannot be done with guides, the align tool, and moving a layer pixel by pixel using the cursor keys.

A little video that explain utility of second script
@Ofnuts, About second script you're right but i'm laze :oops:

, i search every script that make all automatically. :oops:

But Gimp already has that in Layer->Transform->Offset (or Shift-Ctrl-O)

Q to activate Align tool, Shift-Ctrl-O to offset. Much faster, IMO

"Layer offset" offsets the layer contents within the same layer boundaries, and the script moves the layer by changing the layer offset within the image.

For layers-view.scm i get a

Code: Select all

Error: (<unknown> : 68888668) eval: unbound variable: looked

Which is weird because that is in the comment block.

When i remove the comment block i get an unbound variable "image" error. :hoh

For align helper i get a

Code: Select all

Error: (<unknown> : 69372792) eval: unbound variable: define

Must be the way the procedures are being called that causes the errors.
Deprecations?

This is not the same script you have here.
http://gimpfr.org/pub/scripts-2.2/yourg ... helper.scm

Code: Select all

(script-fu-register "script-fu-layer-set-position"
          "<Image>/Script-Fu/Layer Align/Set Position"

Can you post the contents of the script in code blocks please?

Not to be pedantic, but if you change the code, you should add a comment about this (and maybe chnage the script date...). Right now the Internet will have to manage two versions of the script that only experts can distinguish...

I thought you'd all come to the conclusion that it was pointless and that the functionality was now in GIMP anyway

or even better, in one of your Python scripts.

Although I made it not error, it probably needs re-thinking in the light of layer-groups and I don't want to take any responsibility for it.

This is probably a wise idea.

This has nothing to do with the current (perceived) usefulness of the thing: ) After all they number Windows versions to identify them...

paynekj, with your code only link set show doesn't work correctly but for me is perfect, thanks for update. I'm sorry for all my requests, i don't know how to write scripts/plug-ins and I ask here because i'm sure to find best scripters, thanks for great work of everyone.
