This plug-in prompts for a directory then exports your channels as individual PNG files. This could be useful for preparing artwork for screen printing (silkscreen).

How to use:
1. Open the channels dialog
2. Create a new channel, selecting opacity and fill color
3. Perform creation/editing on channel
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as needed.
5. Run the filter

Remove the ".txt" extension from the file, and linux users be sure to flag the file as executable.

This plugin allows you to unseparate (recombine) individual PNG files (up to 6 files) and preview them in GIMP as they would be printed - for example on a 6-color silkscreen press. This is useful when preparing 1-color screens in GIMP or other programs, since you can get a reasonable representation of how they will look when printed atop one another.

This plug-in requires Python. Please do not ask how to install Python support for GIMP - search the forum (I'm looking at you, windows users ;)

Short description:,
The Guillotine-into-Layers plug-in is a variation on the Guillotine plug-in by Adam D. Moss. It is intended to address a shortcoming of the original: Too many windows opened! There is, however, a trade-off.
