Installing plugins

installing plugins

I would also like to know how to installplugins.
For example .scm files in gimp running under Ubuntu Linux, specifically watermark.scm.

http://registry.gimp.org/node/6703

I have read what there is on plugins in Gimp help and what I could find here that mightof use. But no joy.

installing plugins

scm are "script" no plugin and same can be used in windows as in linux or mac

just create a new folder where is handy for you call as "extra-script" (or how you like ) and from gimp Edit/preference/folder/ script add the path from that folder...click ok

and when you want add more script put them there

same you may do for plugin brush, pattern,gradients...

Installing on Windows

To install these scripts on windows using Gimp 2.6 simply copy the files to the following folder:

%userprofile%\.gimp-2.6\scripts

Gimp now works with Limited User Accounts.

Installing scripts

First, thank you for your reply and help. I followed your instructions and something did seem to happen. But when I went to the location where the tool is supposed to be after installation, "Script Fu", sadly no new folder and no tool.
(Path given being ScriptFU/my scripts/watermark.)

Eureka! Sorted it!Thanks again for the help! Confusion caused by the split screens-sorry but ! do not like this aspect of Gimp having come from Paint Shop Pro.

Installing scripts

i do not understand the part on the split screens (?) but i am glad that worked

Installing scripts

Sorry-I meant the 2 floating parts-tools and workspace. I have since downloaded v2.6 on my Window$ comp-I am slightly more comfortable with it- but years of Paint Shop Pro are hard to forget.
