I suspect this is not so much a bug in the example code, which as you say is just an example, but in gimp itself. I have already submitted bugs comments indicatiing significant drift in scaling with NONE interpolation, there is residual drift in lanczos that I dont believe comes from the scaling code , there are fiddle factors to correct offsets in a number of areas. Rather than dismissing this report, it may serve as a useful means of triangulating to find the root cause of some of these drifts. If scaling, rotation and now plugins show drift it should help eliminate the superficial code and enable tracking this back to the problems in the core. This is only gut feeling on my part but it seems that the evidence is mount to confirm what I suggested six mounths ago when I first started looking at lanczos. Thanks to Luis for taking the time to notify the apparent error. gg _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
