gimp_image_add_layer deprecated in gimp 2.7/2.8

Sun, 18 Dec 2011 20:12:26 +0000

I've noticed that gimp 2.7 throws an ugly error-dialog stating that gimp-image-add-layer
is deprecated everytime the plugin tries to add a layer. I've fixed this for the fedora
package of the liquid-rescale-gimp-plugin by replacing the function calls using
the following patch:

Sorry, this forum is specific for a GIMP plug-in, not for GIMP in general and even less for X11. Plus, I don't own a mac so I cannot help in any way (other than suggesting you to find an X11-specific forum). I'll remove this thread in a while.

Trying to update my X11

Sat, 12 Nov 2011 12:19:40 +0000

I have an older version of X11 2.3.6, on my iMac OSX Snow Leopard, and I think it is contributing to Gimp's crashing on me. I upgraded from a Tiger to Snow Leopard, and I guess forgot to install the upgraded version of X11. How do I do this? I went to Apple support and even joined Apple Developer and they mentioned an X code- I tried to download it but no go. is that the same as X11? I really would appreciate a response, because I'm tying to download GIMP, and I have a project coming up.

I assume you are working on Windows. My advice, which is based on my lack of knowledge of that operationg system, is:

open the file explorer
go to the folder C:\Programmi\GIMP-2.0\share\locale\it\LC_MESSAGES or something similar¹
delete the file gimp20-lqr-plugin.mo, or change its name to something else like gimp20-lqr-plugin-backup.mo or whatever

I hope this helps.

Re: problems with loading a file

Sun, 19 Dec 2010 10:46:40 +0000

This doesn't seem to have anything to do with the Liquid Rescale plug-in.

From what I read, the problem is with the plug-in which is used internally by GIMP to open jpeg files.

Therefore, you should better ask for help on the official GIMP channels.

I believe that the problem is the incompatibility between 64-bit and 32-bit applications. The plugin is compiled for 32-bit versions only.

Bug Report:

I have GIMP 2.7.1 (Development Release), it is installed in
"C:\Program Files\GIMP 2.7\" while the _REGULAR_ GIMP (non-development) is in
"C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.7\" (Notice the "-" in the pathname). The dev version
does NOT have intl.dll so I had to copy it from the other directory. I think it may
be optional so the 'Installer' would need to check for it and NOT assume it is present.

1. I downloaded http://liquidrescale.wikidot.com/local--files/en:download-page-windows/gimp-lqr-plugin_0.7.1-liblqr_0.4.1_win32_setup-1.exe .
2. First the "Installer" said that GIMP was not installed but I could continue ONLY if I specified the Folder, I said it was in "C:\Program Files\GIMP 2.7" and the "Installer" completed properly.
3. When I started GIMP the 'pyconsole' ran to detect new plugins but ultimatley I got a message that said:

"
gimp-lqr-plugin.exe - Unable to Locate Component
(X) This application has failed to start because intl.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
"

After copying the '.dll' from the non-dev to the dev's directory the plug-in shows up in the bottom of the Layer menu.

Re: LqR 0.7 won't install on XP with GIMP 2.6 [solved]

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 01:25:02 +0000

This seems like the right subject-matter thread for my question, although it's not quite the same as the OP's original question.

My problem is this: I am running the x64 version of GIMP 2.6.8 on the 64-bit version of Vista. My registry does contain the entry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\WinGimp-2.0_is1\InstallLocation" and the value is the one listed: "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\" however, here is what happens when I tried to install the .71 version of the plug-in.

First, the installer said that it couldn't find the installed copy of GIMP, and that I would have to manually point to the folder where GIMP was installed. I did that, and then the installer appeared to work. However, when then tried to fire up GIMP, I got several errors stating that the plugin had terminated; I got the error dialogue window twice, clicked through it, and then when GIMP had finished starting up, the plugin entry on the Layers menu was not there.

The error log entry that I found in the Vista event viewer says this: "Faulting application plug_in_lqr_iter.exe, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x4c10d2d1, faulting module ntdll.dll, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e03824, exception code 0xc000007b, fault offset 0x0006f04e, process id 0xdf4, application start time 0x01cb3f3a866ffb55."

Is it possible that this is related to the fact that I'm running the x64 version of 2.6.8 (which I understand is considered experimental, so I understand if that applies to this plugin as well), and that the GIMP installation is therefore installed in the Programs file for 64-bit applications instead of being installed to the Programs folder that Vista reserves for 32-bit applications?

You may consider giving the command

Re: compile lqr plugin

this is wrong

 LQR_CFLAGS=/usr/include/lqr-1/lqr.h

it should be

 LQR_CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/lqr-1

If you look at the command line and the error message of make, you'll see that, because of the wrong flag, it's trying to compile 2 files at once, lqr.h and main.c.
(BTW you shouldn't be needing any additional flags normally, ./configure should be able to take care of the liblqr flags.)

Re: Palette switching back to black when creating a preservation layer

Fri, 11 Jun 2010 11:25:55 +0000

The intended behaviour is that the colour changes when entering in mask editing mode and goes back to the previous state when exiting that mode.

If this is what you're observing, then it's not a bug (and I believe that this behaviour makes sense).

If, however, the behaviour is different from this (and from what you see in the linux version, for example), please be more precise in the description, because I can't reproduce the bug, and I don't know what the problem might be.

There is a weird bug in the Wikidot upload system, the file doesn't change even if I delete it and upload a new version, or overwrite it.
So I had to change the link name, here it is: http://liquidrescale.wikidot.com/local--files/en:download-page-windows/gimp-lqr-plugin_0.7.1-liblqr_0.4.1_win32_setup-1.exe.

A new release of the plugin is available. It fixes a bug which caused a crash at GIMP startup on Windows. The new Windows installers are also available, here.

Hi CarloB, No, I never tried version 0.6.1, but I would like to give it a try. My XP Service Pack is 2 on the computer in question. (Although I know there is a newer Service Pack available, I have avoided having to mess with putting the computer on the internet.) Thanks very much for all the work you've accomplished in developing this advanced plugin and making it available for all.
Respectfully, Dave Kettrey

I'm aware of this problem and I'll try to solve it as soon as possible.
In the meanwhile, avoid sending error reports via Windows, even if you're connected to the internet.

Now for some additional questions:

Did you test the previous version of the plugin, 0.6.1? Did it work?
What is the service pack version of your Windows XP?

I'm moving this report here:

Hello Carlos, I downloaded and installed your latest Windows release of this amazing plugin. I have GIMP 2.6.8 on Windows XP. The installation went well and gimp-lqr-plugin.exe is in the proper place in the plugins folder. But when I start GIMP, and it's "querying new plugins", a Microsoft Error Reporting dialogue pops up saying that "gimp-lqr-plugin.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." I never send the error report because the computer I use is not connected to the internet, so after clicking "Don't Send", the dialoque closes and GIMP resumes a normal startup, but without Liquid Rescale showing in the Layers Menu. Do you have any ideas what could be causing this error condition? Thanks for your help and ideas!

I have just uninstalled GIMP and installed it again and verified that it indeed writes to that location in the registry. So I'm a bit puzzled.

Maybe you have upgraded GIMP from a previous version (like previous to 2.4)? In that case it might be that it's using some old location I'm unaware of.

Things you could do to find out (and help others with maybe the same problem):

Search for the correct key:
1. open the registry again and make sure you're at the top of the tree
2. go to "Edit"->"Search"
3. type the string "C:\Program Files\GIMP-2.0\" (be careful to add the final backslash) in the search field
4. Untick "Keys" and "Values" and tick "Data" and "Whole string" (I hope those names are correct, I'm translating from Italian here; anyways it's: untick the first two boxes, tick the last two)
5. Hit search and see if it finds an "InstallLocation" entry; if it does, figure out its path and report it here, so that I can fix the installer.
Uninstall GIMP (from the Control Panel, of course, hoping it will clean the registry) and install again the last version, and see if the plugin installs

Did you install GIMP using the standard Windows installer?
The plugin installer looks in the Windows registry for this entry:

 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\WinGimp-2.0_is1\InstallLocation

This is based on my installation, and I took it for granted it is standard, but it looks like it doesn't find it in your system.

In order to find out for sure, can you please

open up the Windows registry (use "start"->"run…" then type "regedit" and hit OK)
navigate to that position specified above (it's easy, it's just like a big directory tree) and look for that entry?

If you don't find it, do you find at least something similar? (i.e. some GIMP entry inside the "Uninstall" branch)

Windows version for release 0.7.0 available

Mon, 24 May 2010 13:11:57 +0000

The latest version of the plugin is now available for Windows.

As previously announced, this time the translations and the help files should be working correctly (so you have no more excuses for not helping with the translations!)

Furthermore, the files you download are now true Windows installers, which makes installation (and uninstallation) safer and easier.

As always, there are versions for both standard GIMP and for GIMPPortable.

You'll find it in the Windows download page (Italian version here).

Forum thread: Windows version for release 0.7.0 available

Version 0.7.0 released

Mon, 24 May 2010 03:47:00 +0000

After a long time, a new version of the plugin is finally out.
Mainly, it has improvements in the user interface which help the workflow, plus a couple of additional features and some (minor) bugfixes.
Furthermore, the long-standing issue of the localization under Windows should now be finally solved (and a Windows installer will be available very soon).

By the way, many translations are now very outdated and need to be updated! Please, consider helping with this if you can, thanks.

Here is the full list of new features:

Added new option: output on new image
Added new energy functions based on luma instead of brightness
New edit masks mode:
- Added edit buttons for aux layers
- Switch to smaller, always-on-top interface while creating/editing aux layers
Added info icons for aux layers
Added text to some buttons
No longer use extra layers to create the image thumbnail (this means no more "flashing" in the layers toolbox when staring the plugin or creating a new aux layer)
Modified behaviour to make it more consistent:
- After creating/editing aux layers the focus goes back to the layer which is to be rescaled
- If an aux layer is deleted during or between sessions, it is not substitued by another one, and the corresponding setting is made inactive
- Pressing "Back" in the interactive dialog saves the plugin values for later recalls
Bugfix: finally fixed Windows localization
Bugfix: fixed some minor issues arising when working on a new layer and going back and forth through interactive/non-interactive modes

It now requires GIMP 2.6 and the latest version (0.4.1) of the liblqr library, which you can find here.

Go get it from the Download page!

Yes but I didnt find something like contact…
I tried to contact the author but he won't answer.

yeah image segmentation seems to be the hardest part of it…
You are right. CA-fill is based on patch match and this is the part were my script should work better. Because with patch matching(which will also be used for the subdivided areas - this is the part of the resynthesize plugin) you get horrible artifacts on the edges of these areas. Once I figure out a good balance between much and sparse division the rest should be easy (nearly everything then is done by resynthesize).

Thanks for your answer

Re: Content aware fill

Actually, I can't see why you're posting this request here: this wiki is about the Liquid Rescale plugin, which is indeed distinct and very different from the Resyntesizer plugin.
Therefore, you should either contact the Resynthesizer author or maybe try the GIMP plug-in registry site (or any other site about extending GIMP functionality, provided it's more general than the present one).

Let me just note that dividing images into areas (also called image segmentation) is in general far from being a trivial task.

Also, the CA-fill feature is much probably based on something like patch-match (google for it if interested), rather then image segmentation.
