Gimp Plugin: A better lazy man's city?

[RobA]

OK - noticed a few oddities.

Instead of undo enable/disable, wrap the plugin code with gimp_image_undo_group_start and gimp_image_undo_group_end. THis will let you "undo" the plugin as one step, as it is now I can't undo the plugin.

You also leave a layer mask selected at the end. It is nicer to leave a layer selected.

An option to both merge visible and delete non-visible layers might be useful.

looks good.

Any way you can hollow out the center shapes automatically?

ie. create courtyards

Yes, definately going to be an option. Do you want just one layer of houses, then?

I did use undo_group_start and undo_group_end, but I ran into trouble because I'm doing a huge number of gimp_edit_blend, and it just blows away memory on the undo info for some reason. I was going to ask you about that, actually.

I'll try and fix the selection at the end, and the two options you mention, sure thing.

I wonder if a house size jitter would help with the uniformity... will have to look into that. Maybe a placement jitter as well? Hmmm...
