The Continuous Droste effect is a great effect and I am enjoying playing with it.
It’s located in Deformations>Continuous Droste. The Continuous Droste is unable to create the standard circular Droste. In Mathmap it works normally, but in G’MIC it comes up rectangular and is unable to create the standard circular Droste. When you select ‘No Transparency’ in Mathmap, you get the standard Circular Droste. When selecting ‘No Transparency’ in Continuous Droste you get a cropped rectangular Droste instead of the circular Droste. I did post screenshots on GimpChat showing the issue in more detail. I’m new here and don’t know if I am allowed to post a link to the post with the screenshots on GimpChat.
Initially I posted the issue on Flickr’s G’MIC page and then on GimpChat. I was told to post it here because this is where it would be seen and looked into.
Absolutely you may post a link to the flickr/gimpchat threads. It’d be helpful if you posted it here too, that way if other people find this post, they don’t have to crawl all over the web. @David_Tschumperle is here often answering questions, but it is the weekend.
@PhotoMaster, I’ve contacted @Souphead about this issue (he is the one who converted this Mathmap script to G’MIC). I think we need to wait for his answer
Here is a link to the GimpChat page that I posted the screenshots on. http://gimpchat.com/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=14150&start=52
In the mean time I will see if I can figure anything with the G’MIC coding. I’ve never written for G’MIC, but I did code for MathMap. I need to figure how to look at the code for G’MIC filters.
Sorry it took so long - had ‘life things’ taking my times. It should be good now. G’MIC should be built within 2 hours of this post with the fix. Refresh your filters and it should be there!
Kind of subtle but obvious when you think about it. Surprised the bug was undetected for so long actually. Any further weird stuff, let me know.
I tried hitting the update filters, but the update isn’t showing. I’ll try again in a few hours.
I also tried G’MIC Online and it’s not updating there either.
I’ve uploaded the updated filters on the G’MIC server.
It doesn’t seem to change anyway for me in the Continuous Droste filter, not sure if I’m doing something wrong.
Ah really ? That is not normal.
Could you try to re-install latest version of the plug-in from the G’MIC web site to see if that still happens ?
Thanks for your help.
I had the same problem with the update not staying (the machine I had was 1.7.2_PRE). I updated to 1.7.4_PRE and the update stays. Not saying there is a problem with 1.7.3 - I simply didn’t try that one. This is on Windows.
