Smooth Path plugin for the GIMP

By Marko Peric

http://registry.gimp.org/node/20069


Appel du plug-in : Dans la fentre "Chemins", slectionner un chemin, faire un clic droit et valider "Smooth Path..."

Call the plug-in: In the window "Paths", select a path, right click and validate "Smooth Path..."

This plugin will take the active path and smooth it, using a Bezier
interpolation algorithm. If you've ever wanted to define a bunch of
points, and then have the GIMP draw a smooth path through them, this
plugin is for you. There is the option to smooth corners between a
range of angles.

Settings include:

    Smooth only specified corners: If checked,
    only corners whose interior angles lie between the two settings below
    will be smoothed.
    Minimum angle: Corners blunter (greater) than
    this angle will be smoothed.
    Maximum angle: Corners sharper (less) than this
    angle will be smoothed.

This plugin creates a new entry in the Paths dialog right-click menu.

For details of the algorithm used in this plugin, see here:

Be sure to read the readme.txt file for installation and user help.
