PyGIMP question: saving PNG and XCF versions of the same image

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a Python Gimp question.  I don't know if it belongs on the user or developer list, but my feeling is that the people with the knowledge are more likely to read this list.  Let me know if this is the wrong list to post to.

I have written a script to create PNG and XCF versions of an image I want to save.  I have a certain layer whose visibility I want to turn off before I save the PNG but I also want the XCF to give me more editting power if I want to alter the image later.  I have this working fairly well, but the problem is that when my script finishes, I am looking at the flattened PNG version of the image.  At that point, I would need to close the PNG and re-open the XCF if I want to edit the file.  This is less than ideal.  I think it could be solved by simply doing one undo step after saving the PNG (since flattening was the last thing I did), but I don't see in the procedural database a way to undo from a script.  Is there a way to save a flattened PNG and then save an unflattened XCF of the same image and leave the XCF open?

Here is my code:

from gimpfu import *

def my_save(img, drawable):
    ind = find_graph_ind(img)

    if ind:
        img.layers[ind].visible = False
        filename = save_as(initialdir=folder, initialfile=new_name)#<--- get filename from Tk dialog
        print('filename = ' + filename)
        if filename:
            pne, ext = os.path.splitext(filename)
            xcf_path = pne+'.xcf'
            pdb.gimp_xcf_save(1, img, drawable, xcf_path, xcf_path)
            flat_layer = pdb.gimp_image_flatten(img)
            pdb.gimp_file_save(img, flat_layer, filename, filename)#<--- filename ends in .png
            #pdb.file_png_save(img, flat_layer, filename, filename, \
            #                  0, 0, 0, 0, 0, \
            #                  1, 1)
            #pdb.gimp_image_clean_all(img)
            #gimp.displays_flush()


Thanks,

Ryan
