Since I haven't seen any other responses: I don't think there's a way to add a formal preview area in Python. But Python does allow you to write any UI you want -- you have the full pygtk library available. So you could make a scaled-down version of the image, do your preview operations to it, and show it in a drawing area. I'm not sure if there are any good examples of Python scripts that do this. It would be great if someone would try this, write an example and contribute it as pygimp documentation. There are lots of examples for displaying images in pygtk -- I've found that simple to do in other programs -- so it's mostly a matter of getting the GIMP image into a format pygtk can display, and I don't know how hard or easy that is. If you try it, please post a followup here. ...Akkana _______________________________________________ gimp-developer-list mailing list List address: gimp-developer-list@xxxxxxxxx List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer-list
