This tool requires information on the paint application mode, and the fill mode, which can either be in the foreground color, or in the currently active pattern. If there is no selection, a seed fill is executed at the specified coordinates and extends outward in keeping with the threshold parameter. If there is a selection in the target image, the threshold, sample merged, x, and y arguments are unused. If the sample_merged parameter is non-zero, the data of the composite image will be used instead of that for the specified drawable. This is equivalent to sampling for colors after merging all visible layers. In the case of merged sampling, the x,y coordinates are relative to the image's origin; otherwise, they are relative to the drawable's origin.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_clone

Returns: nothing
This tool clones (copies) from the source drawable starting at the specified source coordinates to the dest drawable. If the "clone_type" argument is set to PATTERN-CLONE, then the current pattern is used as the source and the "src_drawable" argument is ignored. Pattern cloning assumes a tileable pattern and mods the sum of the src coordinates and subsequent stroke offsets with the width and height of the pattern. For image cloning, if the sum of the src coordinates and subsequent stroke offsets exceeds the extents of the src drawable, then no paint is transferred. The clone tool is capable of transforming between any image types including RGB->Indexed--although converting from any type to indexed is significantly slower.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_clone_default

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The affected drawable
INT32	num_strokes	Number of stroke control points (count each coordinate as 2 points)
FLOATARRAY	strokes	Array of stroke coordinates: { s1.x, s1.y, s2.x, s2.y, ..., sn.x, sn.y }

Returns: nothing
This tool clones (copies) from the source drawable starting at the specified source coordinates to the dest drawable. This function performs exactly the same as the gimp_clone function except that the tools arguments are obtained from the clones option dialog. It this dialog has not been activated then the dialogs default values will be used.
Andy Thomas; 1999

gimp_color_balance

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The drawable
INT32	transfer_mode	Transfer mode: { SHADOWS (0), MIDTONES (1), HIGHLIGHTS (2) }
INT32	preserve_lum	Preserve luminosity values at each pixel
FLOAT	cyan_red	Cyan-Red color balance: (-100 <= cyan_red <= 100)
FLOAT	magenta_green	Magenta-Green color balance: (-100 <= magenta_green <= 100)
FLOAT	yellow_blue	Yellow-Blue color balance: (-100 <= yellow_blue <= 100)

Returns: nothing
Modify the color balance of the specified drawable. There are three axis which can be modified: cyan-red, magenta-green, and yellow-blue. Negative values increase the amount of the former, positive values increase the amount of the latter. Color balance can be controlled with the 'transfer_mode' setting, which allows shadows, midtones, and highlights in an image to be affected differently. The 'preserve_lum' parameter, if non-zero, ensures that the luminosity of each pixel remains fixed.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1997

gimp_color_picker

Input:

IMAGE	image	The image
DRAWABLE	drawable	The affected drawable
FLOAT	x	x coordinate of upper-left corner of rectangle
FLOAT	y	y coordinate of upper-left corner of rectangle
INT32	sample_merged	Use the composite image, not the drawable

FLOAT	average_radius	The radius of pixels to average
INT32	save_color	Save the color to the active palette

Returns:

COLOR

color

The return color

This tool determines the color at the specified coordinates. The returned color is an RGB triplet even for grayscale and indexed drawables. If the coordinates lie outside of the extents of the specified drawable, then an error is returned. If the drawable has an alpha channel, the algorithm examines the alpha value of the drawable at the coordinates. If the alpha value is completely transparent (0), then an error is returned. If the sample_merged parameter is non-zero, the data of the composite image will be used instead of that for the specified drawable. This is equivalent to sampling for colors after merging all visible layers. In the case of a merged sampling, the supplied drawable is ignored.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_convert_grayscale

Input:

IMAGE

image

The image

Returns: nothing
This procedure converts the specified image to grayscale with 8 bits per pixel (256 intensity levels). This process requires an image of type RGB or INDEXED.

INT32	num_cols	the number of colors to quantize to, ignored unless (palette_type == MAKE_PALETTE)
INT32	alpha_dither	dither transparency to fake partial opacity
INT32	remove_unused	remove unused or duplicate colour entries from final palette, ignored if (palette_type == MAKE_PALETTE)
STRING	palette	The name of the custom palette to use, ignored unless (palette_type == CUSTOM_PALETTE)

Returns: nothing
This procedure converts the specified image to 'indexed' color. This process requires an image of type GRAY or RGB. The 'palette_type' specifies what kind of palette to use, A type of '0' means to use an optimal palette of 'num_cols' generated from the colors in the image. A type of '1' means to re-use the previous palette (not currently implemented). A type of '2' means to use the so-called WWW-optimized palette. Type '3' means to use only black and white colors. A type of '4' means to use a palette from the gimp palettes directories. The 'dither type' specifies what kind of dithering to use. '0' means no dithering, '1' means standard Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion, '2' means Floyd-Steinberg error diffusion with reduced bleeding, '3' means dithering based on pixel location ('Fixed' dithering).
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_convert_rgb

Input:

IMAGE

image

The image

Returns: nothing
This procedure converts the specified image to RGB color. This process requires an image of type GRAY or INDEXED. No image content is lost in this process aside from the colormap for an indexed image.

If the drawable does not have an alpha channel, cleared pixels will be set to the background color. This procedure only affects regions within a selection if there is a selection active.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_edit_copy

Input:

DRAWABLE

drawable

The drawable to copy from

Returns: nothing
If there is a selection in the image, then the area specified by the selection is copied from the specified drawable and placed in an internal GIMP edit buffer. It can subsequently be retrieved using the 'gimp-edit-paste' command. If there is no selection, then the specified drawable's contents will be stored in the internal GIMP edit buffer. The drawable MUST belong to the specified image, or an error is returned.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_edit_cut

Input:

DRAWABLE

drawable

The drawable to cut from

Returns: nothing
If there is a selection in the image, then the area specified by the selection is cut from the specified drawable and placed in an internal GIMP edit buffer. It can subsequently be retrieved using the 'gimp-edit-paste' command. If there is no selection, then the specified drawable will be removed and its contents stored in the internal GIMP edit buffer. The drawable MUST belong to the specified image, or an error is returned.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_edit_fill

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The drawable to fill to
INT32	fill_type	The type of fill: FG_IMAGE_FILL (0), BG_IMAGE_FILL (1), WHITE_IMAGE_FILL (2), TRANS_IMAGE_FILL (3), NO_IMAGE_FILL (4)

Returns: nothing
This procedure fills the specified drawable with the fill mode. If the fill mode is foreground, the current foreground color is used. If the fill mode is background, the current background color is used. Other fill modes should not be used. This procedure only affects regions within a selection if there is a selection active.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-2000

gimp_edit_paste

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The drawable to paste to
INT32	paste_into	Clear selection, or paste behind it?

Returns:

LAYER

floating_sel

The new floating selection

This procedure pastes a copy of the internal GIMP edit buffer to the specified drawable. The GIMP edit buffer will be empty unless a call was previously made to either 'gimp-edit-cut' or 'gimp-edit-copy'. The "paste_into" option specifies whether to clear the current image selection, or to paste the buffer "behind" the selection. This allows the selection to act as a mask for the pasted buffer. Anywhere that the selection mask is non-zero, the pasted buffer will show through. The pasted buffer will be a new layer in the image which is designated as the image floating selection. If the image has a floating selection at the time of pasting, the old floating selection will be anchored to it's drawable before the new floating selection is added. This procedure returns the new floating layer. The resulting floating selection will already be attached to the specified drawable, and a subsequent call to floating_sel_attach is not needed.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_edit_stroke

Input:

DRAWABLE

drawable

The drawable to stroke to

Returns: nothing
This procedure strokes the current selection, painting along the selection boundary with the active brush and foreground color. The paint is applied to the specified drawable regardless of the active selection.

gimp_equalize

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The drawable
INT32	mask_only	Equalization option

Returns: nothing
This procedure equalizes the contents of the specified drawable. Each intensity channel is equalizeed independently. The equalized intensity is given as inten' = (255 - inten). Indexed color drawables are not valid for this operation. The 'mask_only' option specifies whether to adjust only the area of the image within the selection bounds, or the entire image based on the histogram of the selected area. If there is no selection, the entire image is adjusted based on the histogram for the entire image.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

gimp_gimprc_query

Input:

STRING

token

The token to query for

Returns:

STRING

value

The value associated with the queried token

This procedure is used to locate additional information contained in the gimprc file considered extraneous to the operation of the GIMP. Plug-ins that need configuration information can expect it will be stored in the user gimprc file and can use this procedure to retrieve it. This query procedure will return the value associated with the specified token. This corresponds _only_ to entries with the format: (<token> <value>). The value must be a string. Entries not corresponding to this format will cause warnings to be issued on gimprc parsing a nd will not be queryable.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1997

gimp_gimprc_set

Input:

STRING	token	The token to modify
STRING	value	The value to set the token to

Returns: nothing
This procedure is used to add or change additional information in the gimprc file that is considered extraneous to the operation of the GIMP. Plug-ins that need configuration information can use this function to store it, and gimp_gimprc_query to retrieve it. This will accept _only_ parameters in the format of (<token> <value>), where <token> and <value> must be strings. Entries not corresponding to this format will be eaten and no action will be performed. If the gimprc can not be written for whatever reason, gimp will complain loudly and the old gimprc will be saved in gimprc.old.
Seth Burgess; 1999

gimp_help

Input:

STRING	prog_name	The plug-in's executable name or an empty string
STRING	help_page	The location of the help page

Returns: nothing
This procedure loads the specified help page into the helpbrowser or what ever is configured as help viewer. The location of the help page is given relative to the help rootdir. The help rootdir is determined from the prog_name: if prog_name is NULL, we use the help rootdir of the main GIMP installation, if the plug-in's full executable name is passed as prog_name, the GIMP will use this information to look up the help path the plug-in has registered before with gimp-plugin-help-register.
Michael Natterer <mitch@gimp.org>; 2000

gimp_histogram

Input:

DRAWABLE	drawable	The drawable
INT32	channel	The channel to modify: { VALUE_LUT (0), RED_LUT (1), GREEN_LUT (2), BLUE_LUT (3), ALPHA_LUT (4) }

FLOAT	std_dev	Standard deviation of intensity values
FLOAT	median	Median intensity value
FLOAT	pixels	Alpha-weighted pixel count for entire image
FLOAT	count	Alpha-weighted pixel count for range
FLOAT	percentile	Percentile that range falls under

This tool makes it possible to gather information about the intensity histogram of a drawable. A channel to examine is first specified. This can be either value, red, green, or blue, depending on whether the drawable is of type color or grayscale. The drawable may not be indexed. Second, a range of intensities are specified. The gimp_histogram function returns statistics based on the pixels in the drawable that fall under this range of values. Mean, standard deviation, median, number of pixels, and percentile are all returned. Additionally, the total count of pixels in the image is returned. Counts of pixels are weighted by any associated alpha values and by the current selection mask. That is, pixels that lie outside an active selection mask will not be counted. Similarly, pixels with transparent alpha values will not be counted.
Spencer Kimball & Peter Mattis; 1995-1996

INT32	low_output	Intensity of lowest output: (0 <= low_output <= 255)
INT32	high_output	Intensity of highest output: (0 <= high_output <= 255)

Returns: nothing
This tool allows intensity levels in the specified drawable to be remapped according to a set of parameters. The low/high input levels specify an initial mapping from the source intensities. The gamma value determines how intensities between the low and high input intensities are interpolated. A gamma value of 1.0 results in a linear interpolation. Higher gamma values result in more high-level intensities. Lower gamma values result in more low-level intensities. The low/high output levels constrain the final intensity mapping--that is, no final intensity will be lower than the low output level and no final intensity will be higher than the high output level. This tool is only valid on RGB color and grayscale images. It will not operate on indexed drawables.

Returns:

DRAWABLE

drawable

The newly mapped drawable

This tool performs a possibly non-affine transformation on the specified drawable by allowing the corners of the original bounding box to be arbitrarily remapped to any values. The specified drawable is remapped if no selection exists. However, if a selection exists, the portion of the drawable which lies under the selection is cut from the drawable and made into a floating selection which is then remapped as specified. The interpolation parameter can be set to TRUE to indicate that either linear or cubic interpolation should be used to smooth the resulting remapped drawable. The return value is the ID of the remapped drawable. If there was no selection, this will be equal to the drawable ID supplied as input. Otherwise, this will be the newly created and remapped drawable. The 4 coordinates specify the new locations of each corner of the original bounding box. By specifying these values, any affine transformation (rotation, scaling, translation) can be affected. Additionally,these values can be specified such that the resulting transformed drawable will appear to have been projected via a perspective transform.
