I posted this to Gimp-User awhile ago and got no response. Hoping for more here. :) Also, thanks Kevin for your earlier response! :) ---- Earlier message: I am trying to turn on script tracing in Gimp 2.4 so I can track the progress of a test script I wrote. Though I have called (tracing 1) as indicated in the tiny-fu documentation I am seeing no tracing occurring. I have checked the console log file, the script-fu console and looked for other output as well but have seen no tracing output. Is there something I am missing? Where is the tracing output supposed to show up? It there another step that I'm missing? The script I wrote is below. Thanks. :) --- Script: (define ( script-fu-text-box inText inFont inFontSize inTextColor inBufferAmount ) (let* ( (theImageWidth 10) (theImageHeight 10) (theImage (car (gimp-image-new theImageWidth theImageHeight RGB ) ) ) (theText) (theBuffer) (theLayer (car (gimp-layer-new theImage theImageWidth theImageHeight RGB-IMAGE "layer 1" 100 NORMAL ) ) ) ) (tracing 1) ( gimp-image-undo-group-start theImage ) (gimp-image-add-layer theImage theLayer 0) (gimp-context-set-background '(255 255 255) ) (gimp-context-set-foreground inTextColor) (gimp-drawable-fill theLayer BACKGROUND-FILL) (set! theText (car (gimp-text-fontname theImage theLayer 0 0 inText 0 TRUE inFontSize PIXELS "ProFontISOLatin1") ) ) (set! theImageWidth (car (gimp-drawable-width theText) ) ) (set! theImageHeight (car (gimp-drawable-height theText) ) ) (gimp-image-resize theImage theImageWidth theImageHeight 0 0) (gimp-layer-resize theLayer theImageWidth theImageHeight 0 0) (set! theBuffer (* theImageHeight (/ inBufferAmount 100) ) ) (set! theImageHeight (+ theImageHeight theBuffer theBuffer) ) (set! theImageWidth (+ theImageWidth theBuffer theBuffer) ) (gimp-image-resize theImage theImageWidth theImageHeight 0 0) (gimp-layer-resize theLayer theImageWidth theImageHeight 0 0) (gimp-layer-set-offsets theText theBuffer theBuffer) ( gimp-image-undo-group-end theImage ) (gimp-display-new theImage) (list theImage theLayer theText) (tracing 0) ) ) (script-fu-register "script-fu-text-box" "First Script" "Creates a simple text box, sized to fit around the user's choice of text, font, font size, and color." ;description "Me" "Copyright 2007" "June 25, 2007" "" ;image type that the script works on SF-STRING "Text:" "Text Box" ;a string variable SF-FONT "Font:" "Charter" ;a font variable SF-ADJUSTMENT "Font size" '(50 1 1000 1 10 0 1) ;a spin-button SF-COLOR "Color:" '(0 0 0) ;color variable SF-ADJUSTMENT "Buffer amount" '(55 0 100 1 10 1 0) ;a slider ) (script-fu-menu-register "script-fu-text-box" "<Toolbox>/Xtns/Me") --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
