GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 472027
Foreground extract color overlay not working with zoom<100%
Last modified: 2007-08-31 10:07:22 UTC
Please describe the problem: If the zoom level is <100%, the color overlay is displayed in a very strange way. The extraction process itself is not affected. Steps to reproduce: 1. Start the foreground extract with a zoom <50% 2. draw the initial outline 3. Actual results: You get a display as in the attached screen shot. Expected results: Does this happen every time? yes Other information:
Created attachment 94674 [details] Screenshot showing the error.
Indeed, the tool is not usable if you zoom out. Using the tool produces hundreds of warning messages on the console: Gimp-Display-WARNING **: bpp=1 not implemented as box filter This comes from app/display/gimpdisplayshell-render.c, in the function box_filter(). I am not sure if the bug is in box_filter() or in the calling function render_image_...(), so I hope that Øyvind can fix that.
2007-08-31 Øyvind Kolås <pippin@gimp.org> * app/display/gimpdisplayshell-render.c: (render_image_tile_fault): use nearest neighbour resampling when rendering for a 1byte per pixel drawable (ony happens when interacting with the SIOX tool, and then the buffer is a indexed; not a greyscale buffer), fixes bug #472027.
