Textured Glass

sallyanne · **Posted:** Wed Mar 23, 2016 12:50 am **(#1)**

Whenever I use the textured glass preset it doesn't save. In fact the image is blank after it has been saved (as a png)? Is there something else I need to do.
I thought the 'glass frame' script from dinasset would also use this but it is saving :gaah

. So am I doing something wrong or?

I did a quick test now, for me it works (Gimp 2.8.16 and G'MIC 1.6.9)

original

Lovely. I currently use the G'MIC 1.6.8
I can update it but doesn't your script use the filter from G'MIC?

yes, it does

A (probably useless) warning: the filter DOES NOT TEXTURIZE A TOTALLY TRANSPARENT AREA.
Thus, if you make a selection and the current selection is the transparent area, not texturize occurs

the centre is shown black but it's a transparent area selected

NEITHER IT DOES OVER A TOTALLY WHITE AREA

MORE IN GENERAL: THE FILTER DOES NOT GENERATE A TEXTURIZED PATTERN ON ANY FULLY UNIFORM BASE;
was this the case, Sallyanne? did you try to texturize a uniformely coloured area?

I tried it on the blue/green image after I overlayed with a transparent layer, coloured with a gradient and reduced opacity. It generated but didn't save.

Flattened the image and it worked

Thanks. I tried to do this earlier on the circle art but couldn't. But the glass frame script work (Go figure!)
