Hi, I have posted a bug regarding the perl call to gimp_path_get_poin ts (it doesn't work in perl -- the number of points is not returned, and a final array seems to have zero length), but this is only a related question. Is there a way to find out how long the active path is? I have seen people use error catching in script-fu to detect overruns when doing gimp-path-get-point-at-dist, but I would really like to know how long the path is so that I can place copies of the active selection at equal intervals along it. Depending on error conditions seems clumsy (although I am working on a binary search to get the length). Any ideas?
