This is a suite of revised and new resynthesizer plugins.

I have assumed maintenance of the Resynthesizer from the original author Paul Harrison.

This is version 1.0.

The source is now at github.com (a public repository like SourceForge). Search for user "bootchk", repository "resynthesizer." For more information, see the README and ChangeLog and NEWS files there (you don't have to download them.)

!!! The attached executables are Linux files. DO NOT download them for Windows. Also do NOT download the Python scripts for Windows (they won't work with the old resynthesizer.exe.) I have built the resynthesizer and tested on Windows, but have not finished an installer for Windows. If you are adept at building, download the source and build Windows executables yourselves.

A short summary of changes for users is:
- bugs are fixed
- alpha-agnostic: less hassle with alpha channels
- its bundled: most plugins that use the resynthesizer

For programmers:
- rewritten in C and Python, in Gimp style
- GNU build tool makefiles
- engine separated from the GUI control panel

Sharpening seems to be slow, when enlarging, but all other options, styles, healing, and textures are certainly faster and more consistent. Enlarging impressed me, but then waiting for sharpening to complete was the downside.

Transparency healing, wow, that worked well for me. I am very impressed, overall.

Glad to hear that Mahvin; clicked here in the first place because of your thread at GIMPChat (didn't post there since I'm doing so here) so thanks for that too. I'm also excited that bootchk fixed the alpha layer bug (only a bug if source/target layer has an alpha channel and the other doesn't). Still good news that it's going to be maintain since Resynthesizer is one of the cool gems in GIMP for sure. :)

Just tried on Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit, using GIMP 2.6.11, and it works great. Thanks, bootchk!

Hello,
I recently installed GIMP, Python 2.7, then copied in C:\Documents and Settings\xxx\.gimp-2.6\plug-ins the ten files from the .zip file.
Filter
Now the "Heal Selection" filter appears in the Filters -> Enhance menu, but not the "Heal transparency".

How do I get the "Heal transparency" filter to appear?

Please forgive me as I am quite new to GIMP...

Emilio

P.S. It seems I posted my comment at the wrong level of the discussion... Sorry...
