Wow, this is awesome!
Don't know how to download and install a script
Call me stupid but I have no experience in this. The script looks like a text so what should I do with it? Copy the text to some file? Please help, thanks!
look
look http://wiki.osphoto.org/index.php/GIMP_scripts
Thank you
Well call me stupid again, my problem is understanding the "download" instruction when there is no file to download, when I click the *.scm link, another webpage opens and the script is just a text ( for me ). I have options to save it as mht, html or text . I understand the rest of the procedure, but cannont figure out how to have a script file in gimp script folder.
Thank you in advance for patience!
"scripts" ARE text , if not
"scripts" ARE text ,
if not why would be called "script"?
BUT you have not to save with a txt extension, but as "all Files"( that is the Windows term meaning save as it is don't reformat)
Anyway now that you know that is fine for scripts look as text you should have no more problem to follow the instrution on the link
Thanks again
I am not from English speaking country so did not realize the script-text connection. There is no "all files" option when saving, I'll try to right click the link, "save target as" option saves it as *.scm . But will do it in the afternoon as photos and gimp are in another computer.
Anyway, if I remain silent, you've got rid of me :-)
It is a bit hidden
Where you see the option to save as txt, that IS A DROPDOWN LIST
First most visible option is the wrong one you already saw, hidden below (click to expand the list) the right one
I am not english too, no problem
PS for similar question you will get more chances of quick answers (well in this occasion you was lucky ) on gimp forum as
www.gimpchat.com
www.gimptalk.com
also there we may reply with screenshoot, images may be more clear that word, even more of words in a foreign language
Right click
When you right click to Save Target as...
If at this point you see "Darla-PurpleFringe.scm.txt" just remove the .txt portion from the filename. If there is no .txt extension, you should be fine.
Change extension may work but
Change extension may work but not always
Save as text may reformat , as example breaking the inline
suppose this 3 lines in a script:
(gimp-image-add-layer InImage CopyLayer -1)
;here we merge down the layer in Addition mode
(gimp-layer-set-mode CopyLayer ADDITION-MODE)
were line 2 is a comment so must begin with ";"
now if the lines get messed up as
(gimp-image-add-layer InImage CopyLayer -1);here we merge down the layer in Addition mode (gimp-layer-set-mode
CopyLayer ADDITION-MODE)
the script may not work anymore and that may happen saving as txt (not too often but happens)
Thank you both
For some reason ( I have vista in my office ) there is no "all files" option when saving stuff from web. Believe it or not but it is true.
Just came home, saved it as scm and it works!!!!
Awesome, thanks people!
