Have a look here: http://developer.gimp.org/writing-a-plug-in/2/index.html When you have initialized a region, you can access it pixel by pixel, row by row, or tile by tile, depending what you want to do (I guess each method has advantages, according to the filter you want to write). -- Frédéric http://www.gbiloba.org
