installing patterns

Hi,

I'd like to install some patterns in the Gimp version 2.0, the server version.

The manual says that the patterns should go in system patterns dir. This is one of the two locations.

Is this the location:

/usr/share/gimp/2.0/

If yes, then I can copy some old patterns from ver 1.2 and use them, right. In ver 1.2 they should be installed here: /usr/share/gimp/1.2/

Thanks,
Andrei

Hi Andrei,

Do you use GIMP 1.2 at all? If not, delete that second directory! it is irrelevant and is obviously the cause of your confusion. IIRC nothing changed about pattern fileformat between 1.x and 2.x, so you should be able to copy them across, yes :)

Cheers, David

installing patterns

Hi,

No, I don't have 2 dirs. I have 2 machines: one running 1.2 and the other one 2.2.

So I guess I can safely copy the patterns from one server to the other. Actually the sys admin will do it as I don't have the necessarily rights.

Thanks, Andrei
