Simple Borders not working in Gimp 2.10.14

Open ivanfet opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

I just installed Beautify in Gimp 2.10.14 running on Linux Mint 19.3 by following the instructions. Most of the effects work except for the Simple Border. After the border is selected and OK clicked, Gimp gives the following error

Calling error for procedure 'gimp-context-set-pattern': Pattern 'Clipboard' not found

An orange border with grey strips is created. Any ideas how to get the selected borders to work?

Cheers Ivan

Found that comment

This is likely because in 2.10, the Clipboard pattern has been renamed Clipboard Image. However, AFAIK this name is language dependent, which means that the plugin wouldn't run if Gimp is set with a different language. It can however be obtained in a name/language independent way as the first pattern returned by gimp-patterns-get-list(). In Python: np,patterns=pdb.gimp_patterns_get_list('') pdb.gimp_context_set_pattern(patterns[0])

But for such a change someone has to build/compile beautify again, correct?

Ok - rich2005 repackaged the borders part to a completly new plugin. One part of the borders are the above mentioned "Simple Borders" - and with this new plugin they work! 👍

Hello, I just love to use Beautify since I discovered this plug-in. Is there any possibility for linux users to be able to compile Beautify normally and use correctly "Simple Borders option" with Gimp 2.10 and above please ? Best regards
