In Part One of this article we looked at running GEGL plug-ins as live filters, using the GEGL Operation dialogue. GEGL plug-ins are super cool and have live on-canvas preview. Now in Part Two we’ll take it to the next level and look at the more powerful GEGL Graph GIMP plug-in.
If
you don’t know about GEGL plug-ins for GIMP, you’ve been missing
out. There’s not many of them, but that’s changing with more
people writing them. And they offer flexibility and power you didn’t
know GIMP had.
This three-part article first shows some of the gegl plug-ins that are available, and how to get them going (it’s easy, don’t worry)
Then, in part two, we’ll look at the GEGL Graph plug-in you can use as a way to make your own super-powerful filters.
Finally, we build up to writing a simple GEGL plug-in in C, written for people without a maths or programming background.
