What is interesting, programm recognize properly externally added scripts - as in user folder (in gimp/scripts file) as added to the main Bin\Gimp\share\gimp\2.0\scripts folder. 3) For those using liquid plugin - it wont work applied according creators guideline - you have to put exe file directly in User\Gimp\plug-ins file - then work fine Does anybody know how to fix point 1 and 2 permamently? I hope my short review will help a little for other gimp enthusiasts please share your experience as well best regards JackL | ||

I think.... Replace X-Gimp.ini and X-Gimp.exe (please let me now if ALL problems are fixed). x-gimp_fix.zip JackL wrote ... 2) somehow, fu-scripts originally conteined in X-Gimp_2[1].4.0_rev4\Bin\Gimp\share\gimp\2.0\scripts directory, are only partially visible in menu under filters/alpha to logo - but even there it is inactive ... unless you click "xtns" menu in main window and there in "script-fu" you click "refresh scripts" option - this activate fu scripts in alpha to logo menu. What is interesting, programm recognize properly externally added scripts - as in user folder (in gimp/scripts file) as added to the main Bin\Gimp\share\gimp\2.0\scripts folder. For the point 2 read this: -Link- Redesigned menus The user interface has been redesigned, especially the top and context menus. There is now a seperate menu for colors, and the ScriptFu and PythonFu menu are no longer available. All filters and plugins can now be found in the Filters menu. For instance: Script-Fu -> Shadows -> Drop Shadow is now located at Filters -> Light and Shadow -> Drop Shadow. This is much more intuitive. [ Edited Fri 26 Oct 2007 - 00:49 ] | ||

Why? Because: -Link- JackL wrote ... perhaps it's only my experience but still to activate scripts in menu under filters/alpha to logo - you have to click "xtns" menu in main window and there in "script-fu" you have to click "refresh scripts" option. Sorry but if it is a bug, is a bug of Gimp. The normal-install Gimp version works in the same way and have the same "problem"... | ||
