Need a script to output position of images within image.

This discussion is connected to the gimp-user-list.gnome.org mailing list which is provided by the GIMP developers and not related to gimpusers.com.

This is a read-only list on gimpusers.com so this discussion thread is read-only, too.

Need a script to output position of images within image.

Hello,

I created a jigsaw puzzle from an image. All the pieces exist in different layer.

Is there a way to get the position of the pieces (a script or a menu command)? I realize I could use the ruler, however, I would like something that would be more exact and less tedious.

Thanks, Stephen

With only one image open, from the python-fu console:

img = gimp.image_list()[0]

for layer in img.layers: print layer.name, layer.offsets

I was curious to see how the forum has hooking to the mailing list these days, and I'm sad to report that it munged the spacing on that psuedo-code. You'd be better off subscribing to the mailing list directly. Anyway, it should be like:

img = gimp.image_list()[0]

for layer in img.layers: print layer.name, layer.offsets

Where means indent via Tab key or spaces.

Well, I give up. The forum ate that too.

Fantastic! that works.

Where is a good place to learn more about the functions that are accessible through scripts?

Also you can do stuff like this in the console:

dir(gimp)

img = gimp.image_list()[0] dir(img)

etc.

I'm not sure anything exists to do that but you could write a script. If you autocrop each layer you could then get the layer offset for each piece (ie. layer).
