The @file{trunk/Identity/Brushes} directory exists to organize GIMP
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
brushes used inside @value{TCPCVI}.

A brush is a pixmap or set of pixmaps used for painting through an
|
|
|
88355d |
image manipulation program like GIMP. Inside the repository, brushes
|
|
|
88355d |
are initially created in @file{.xcf} format and later exported to any
|
|
|
88355d |
of the brush formats recognized by GIMP (e.g., @file{.gbr} or
|
|
|
88355d |
@file{.gih}) using the same name of its source file.

The @file{trunk/Identity/Brushes} directory contains no file, but the

following organizational directories:

In order for brushes to be loaded by GIMP, they should be stored in
|
|
|
b4d413 |
the @file{~/.gimp-2.2/brushes} directory. This location is out of
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
@value{TCAR} and doesn't provide version control by itself. To be able
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
of using version controlled brushes inside GIMP, we store brush
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
related files inside @file{trunk/Identity/Brushes} directory and
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
create links to them from @file{~/.gimp-2.2/brushes} directory.

The entire link preparation and maintainance of brushes inside the
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
working copy is automated by @code{prepare} functionality of
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
@command{centos-art.sh} script.
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
Inside the working copy, brushes might be created individually in
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
different locations, but they all need to be linked from one unique
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
location (i.e., @file{~/.gimp-2.2/brushes}). This configuration may
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
provoke brush overlapping if a consistent name convenction is not
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
implemented correctly. In that sake, file names used for brushes
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
are combined with the directories they are stored in order to build
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
unique identifiers.
|
|
|

|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
Brushes produced with GIMP has a description field associated that is
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
shown in the Brushes panel of GIMP. This description is set when the
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
brush is created as @file{.xcf} file and can be updated when it is
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
exported either to @file{.gbr} or @file{.gih} format. It wouldn't be
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
too useful to have two or more brushes using the same description so,
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
we also make description of brush files unique, too. In that sake, use
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
the file name as description but without including the file extension
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
(e.g., if we have the @file{centos-flame-3.gbr} brush, its description
|
|
|
a6fcb1 |
would be @code{centos-flame-3}).
