Nicolas BENOIT - GIMP Formulas Plugin
Overview(Edit)
The Formulas Rendering Plug-In for the Gimp 2 is a simple plugin that allows you to change the values of each color channel of each pixel of a layer by using mathematical expressions.
It is able to handle RGB* and Gray* images. Available operators are: +, -, *, /, , and %.
There are many functions available, such as sin, cos, sqrt, abs, min, max.
A few constants are provided (pi, e, j), and a lot of pre-defined variables are usable (w for image's width, h for image's height, x and y for cartesian coordinates in the image, etc.).
Last update: 14-Nov-2010
GIMP Formulas Plugin 0.9.8
- Added support for arbitrary pixel accessor: red(x,y), green(x,y), blue(x,y), etc.
- Fixed GUI design glitches and preview rendering.
- Fixed minor compilation issues and warnings.
