WARNING If you have an old version of my GEGL Effects Layer Effects plugin before May 2023 this will break GEGL Effects, once this plugin is installed. Check to make sure the version of GEGL Effects you are using was released May 2023 or onward. If not update here to the latest version. https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/GEGL-Effects---Layer-Effects-in-Gimp-using-GEGL/releases
To confirm test if GEGL Effects is working after the update, install Gold Text binaries and then see if “inner glow and or bevel” in GEGL Effects still work. If they are not, the update in the link above will fix GEGL Effects.
A Gimp Plugin where GEGL transforms plain text into Gold. Go to releases section for Binaries. https://github.com/LinuxBeaver/Gimp_Gold_Text_Plugin/releases
(THEY DO NOT GO IN THE NORMAL PLUGINS FOLDER)
C:\Users(USERNAME)\AppData\Local\gegl-0.4\plug-ins
/home/(USERNAME)/.local/share/gegl-0.4/plug-ins
/home/(USERNAME)/.var/app/org.gimp.GIMP/data/gegl-0.4/plug-ins
To compile and install you will need the GEGL header files (libgegl-dev
on
Debian based distributions or gegl
on Arch Linux) and meson (meson
on
most distributions).
meson setup --buildtype=release build
ninja -C build
The easiest way to compile this project on Windows is by using msys2. Download and install it from here: https://www.msys2.org/
Open a msys2 terminal with C:\msys64\mingw64.exe
. Run the following to
install required build dependencies:
pacman --noconfirm -S base-devel mingw-w64-x86_64-toolchain mingw-w64-x86_64-meson mingw-w64-x86_64-gegl
Then build the same way you would on Linux:
meson setup --buildtype=release build
ninja -C build
