pdb.gimp_layer_set_offsets
There is nothing in the pdb browser for moving a layer, you have to offset it.

OK, so following Alexia's suggestion, I am going to plan on selecting ahead of time the rectangle I want my text to paste into. The upper left corner of this selection will then be the upper left corner that I want to paste my png to. How do I do that? I thought about creating a layer the same size as the selection rectangle and pasting to (0,0) on that layer. I see in the pdb how to create a layer with a certain width and height, but I don't see how to specify the offset. And I don't see how to paste to a specific set of coordinates. Can this be done? If I use pdb.gimp_edit_paste_as_new, can I get the coordinates of the pasted selection and then move the floating selection before anchoring? What is the right approach?
Thanks,

I would like my Latex enabled approach to act like the regular text tool. The main thing I don't know how to do is allow the user (me) to click on a spot on the current image and pass those coordinates to PyGimp so that I can use that as the top left corner of my png. Does my question make sense? Is there an easy way to allow the user to click on a spot on the image and get the coordinates from PyGimp?
In various scripts when I have needed to indicate a location on a canvas Ive used selections. Id say using an upper left corner of a selection you draw first is as good as its going to get...
