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

The issue was the old and new versions created had different file names for the plugin (resynth for the old, resynthesizer for the new) but registered with the same pdb name and even had the same number of parameteres, but behaved differently.

Now that you mention the PDB issues, could this have been related to why I could not successfully use 0.16, because I possibly had both resynthesizer files in the plug-ins folder. I've never gave the idea of having two files any thought. I would think it would have thrown errors, before actually working.

I'd experiment and test this theory, but I'm happy with the newest version.

Bonjour,

@ ffaat
Can you remove the image (..../2011-05-31_091945.jpg) of your tests that does not correspond to reality?

If you want to use the 2 versions simultaneously you can download from this page :
http://registry.gimp.org/node/25339
Sources are in the archive.

I see no way to edit an existing post from a previous session, this might have to be done by the site manager.

Bonjour,

Excuse me, I was wrong on the name of the author.

I removed it.

Bonjour,

Thank you very much!

Too bad that the 2 versions are not compatible...would be no sufficent change the plugin name in the plugin registration block to avoid conflict ?

The new version work better in most cases but as Lylejk wrote , there are corner cases that the older was handling better

That's why I've kept the old resynthesizer too. New one that works with the Python and the old one that works with the script-fu (better for healing imo). The new version has it's good sides, but it doesn't work well for healing or when I want to feel outside a container the contents thats on the inside of the container (hope I'm describing that right). Haven't decided yet to hose the new Resynthesizer yet Rob. They both work happily together so leaving it that way for now. :)
