GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 486977
Add PDB procedure to scale an image with given interpolation
Last modified: 2008-09-24 17:12:20 UTC
As I understand bug #477218 is not a bug, but a feature related with another anti-aliasing approach, I mean supersampling. So only the possible way to scale an image in script exactly in the same way as Image/Scale does, is gimp-image-scale, which uses the default interpolation. The default interpolation cannot be changed within a script, so in all my scripts I must use the same interpolation and change this preference manually when needed. It is not very useful. I suggest to add new PDB procedure similar to gimp-image-scale but allowing one to use explicitly given interpolation. Thanks.
gimp-drawable-transform-scale allows you to scale the individual layers. This is not quite as comfortable as scaling the image in one go, but for most use cases it should be good enough. Without a patch and any progress on this request, let's close it as WONTFIX.
Please, reopen the bug according to #550783. Thanks!
2008-09-24 Sven Neumann <sven@gimp.org> * tools/pdbgen/pdb/layer.pdb * tools/pdbgen/pdb/image.pdb: added new scale procedures that allow to specify the interpolation explicitly. Fixes bug #486977.
