Preview Windows in Python-Fu - Do they exist?

I've been searching the net for a couple days to see if Python-Fu supports Preview Windows in plug-ins. Depending on the search strings I use in Google, I get thousands of hits, far too many to find anything useful. I haven't found anything useful in the the hits I did read.

So, if someone could point me to a useful link, I would be very grateful.

TIA,

Jim

No, it doesn't. PyGimp does, though. This means that if you want a preview window, you need to construct the GUI yourself -- you cannot rely on PythonFu to construct it automatically for you.

In the 'gimpui' module, look up the help -- see 'GimpPreview','GimpAspectPreview', and associates.

Thank you David.

Next question ... is there any GUI generator, like Glade that does a decent job of building interfaces like that?

TIA,

Jim

Hi Jim!

You can use Glade to create Python GUI's and as described it's also possible to create complete new Glade widgets in Python...

Custom PyGTK Widgets in Glade3 http://unpythonic.blogspot.com/2007/03/custom-pygtk-widgets-in-glade3.html

I havn't done this by myself but want to try it as soon as possible - please keep me up to date if it works for you or if there are more questions... -> forum@dolchonline.net

best Regards

Danko
