**Raises hand** What's the difference? EDIT - I see the difference. Never mind, insomnia.

I usually work with vector softwares for this sort of thing. I set up the document in inches, and place them into the document, then I use Scribus to prepare print (that may be overkill when all you want is the picture). I never printed from a raster graphic program again after learning about this.

There could be legacy pdn export mode as a option. At each layer, new blending mode will instead be a flattened copy then remove the blending mode layer. Normal mode is not gonna solve everything. Also for the OP, doing something in head and programming is different. Very different. Source - I coded over 20 blending modes for Krita like XNOR, OR, Modulo, Reflect, IFS Illusion modes.

News, I will not be doing filters in a good while. Last update for now - https://github.com/dtschump/gmic-community/pull/196 Stitch is the new filter on 2.7.0.

2.7.0 seem to be coming according to the G'MIC maintainer at discuss.pixls.us.

Well, looks like the tiles_shape will be on hold. I decided to make it even faster, and awaiting skip bug fix on g'mic. Meanwhile, I made the g'mic version of object pruner though it might need more work. Is anyone interested into alpha based on shape separation and their size? I might extend the g'mic version to support filter object based on mode of colors rather than plain black and white. I guess Object Pruner can be extended this way, but I can't speak for the developer of it. @MJW Decided to call since I'm sharing idea here, and made something based on the principle of the Object Pruner plugin. Early code development of g'mic version of object pruner (not representative of current code). I also can make the alpha depending on pixel size. I'm sure that can be of use. vv is just going to be used to determine if alpha variance is the same, and therefore skip the code if variance is zero. I can't explain the begin thing or the >i in f blocks, I was just testing values and seeing how they work, but I don't know how as I copied from blend_shapeaverage0 code found in user.gmic. The rest is easier to understand. f is basically equivalent to function most of the time. Label assigns unique number to shapes of repeating values, and shapes are also treated as object. rm removes layers. channels is used to extract a channel. sh created a linked copy where specified number is a channel or ranges of channel. val_a=0 val_b=.01 minv={min($val_a,$val_b)} maxv={max($val_a,$val_b)} vv=0 +channels {s-1} f. i==0?0:1 . f[2] "begin(A = resize([ 0,(s-1)/s ],s,3));I+A" norm[2] round[2] 0.01 label[2] 0 {iM+1},1,1,{0,1} f[1] ">i(#3,i(#2,x,y,z,0),0,0,c)+=i;i" map[2] . rm[1,3] n. 0,100 sh[0] {s#0-1} f. ma=$minv*iM#-2;mb=$maxv*iM#-2;(i#-2<ma)||(i#-2>mb)?0:i rm[1,2]

A lot of variations already exist. You could look into source code of open source software like RawTherapee for example. I'm sure there's other resources out there too. G'MIC has variations of it too, and that doesn't require Paint.NET at all. It can work in Krita, GIMP, Natron, Paint.NET and Blender.

New filter is in work Based off TR Tiled Pixels. New features would be: - Custom tile width and height - Subpixel processing - Rotation of shape / Flip Shape - Alter how much shape fill the tile - Support for custom shapes, you have to make a new layer and use grays only for this(more on that when released to github) -20+ shapes support It's a bit slower than @TechnoRobbo filter when subpixel processing are done. I haven't looked at his algorithm or source code, but this filter of mine is based off weighted averaging using shape, and the last channel is treated as shape cropped. GUI filter will convert to rgba if 3 channels are used, but that only affects GIMP.

More updates coming. New Filter named Stitch. Based off the principles of @pyrochild Stitch Paint.NET plugin. There's more features to the G'MIC version that I have made than the stitch paint.net plugin. You can have 12 stitch angle, make stitching random or uniform, anti-aliasing, change subpixel processing level, change the repeat level. - Here how it looks like below -

Why not use Object2Colour? The easiest solution?

Even though 2.7.0 is not available for Paint.NET and you won't see this update, during the meantime, I"ll post changes that'll be coming. New Changes: 50 new palettes, fixes to distortion filters - For details - Fixes to distortion filters, and 50 new palettes #196 EDIT: Next up, I"ll probably make a way to export those palettes. But, it's more likely I"ll work on modulo and continue into developing the concrete texture.

Here's something I thought of in G'MIC-QT. Open G'MIC-QT. Go to code[global]/code[local]. Paste this code. input_glob "" #Type in your location (No spaces allowed, not my fault or null54 fault)# r2dx 200%,5 #Resize 200% by bicubic interpolation# fx_smooth_bilateral 42.7,13.2,1,0 #Spatial Variance, Value Variance, Iteration, Channels and Color Space Option# output {name},{format} #Please change name to your desire, and use the right format# What this does is import images, and then output images. They're not applied to layers.

2.7.0 when? That's the version that actually updates as evidence by removal of my own Spiral Matrix Transform (replaced with Testing->Joan Rake version). Also, G'MIC seem to be getting AI learning though it is being developed. - https://mobile.twitter.com/gmic_ip/status/1148684715047694336

ImageMagick or G'MIC as a cli app. They can perform batch editing. Plugins cant access more than 1 layer. So, the alternative are these two.

Decided to extend my existing Color Modulo Texture after reading more of @MadJik thread. I was basing my older version off the one that I had. Now, here's the cli options. #@cli rep_color_modulo_texture: 0<=_modulo_method<=5,_maxmod>0,_endmodvalue>0,0<=_angle<=360,_value_shift>0,_centered= { 0=Not centered | 1=Centered },_negate_mod= { 0=normal | 1=inverted },_normalize_bool= { 0=Do not Normalize | 1=Normalize },\ 0<=_modulo_method<=5,_maxmod>0,_endmodvalue>0,0<=_angle<=360,_value_shift>0,_centered= { 0=Not centered | 1=Centered },_negate_mod= { 0=normal | 1=inverted },_normalize_bool= { 0=Do not Normalize | 1=Normalize },\ 0<=_modulo_method<=5,_maxmod>0,_endmodvalue>0,0<=_angle<=360,_value_shift>0,_centered= { 0=Not centered | 1=Centered },_negate_mod= { 0=normal | 1=inverted },_normalize_bool= { 0=Do not Normalize | 1=Normalize },\ 0<=_modulo_method<=5,_maxmod>0,_endmodvalue>0,0<=_angle<=360,_value_shift>0,_centered= { 0=Not centered | 1=Centered },_negate_mod= { 0=normal | 1=inverted },_normalize_bool= { 0=Do not Normalize | 1=Normalize },\ _diagonal_flip= { 0=not flipped | 1 = flipped },_subpixel_processing_level>0,0<=_interpolation<=5,0<=_colorspacemode<=12,_contain_alpha= { 0=no_alpha | 1=alpha },\ 0<=_channel_num<=4,0<=_channel_num<=4,0<=_channel_num<=4,0<=_channel_num<=4 And a image to go with the upgrade of my own Color Modulo Texture. That's CMYK color modulo texture with everything centered and no angle change using continuous divisive modulo mode. Beautiful, huh?
