MacClipboard Description

Port of the winclipboard plugin for Gimp 2.0 to Mac OS X MacClipboard is a port of the winclipboard plugin for Gimp 2.0 to Mac OS X. After installing this plugin you will be able to copy Gimp layers and paste them into Macintosh programs and paste images into Gimp from Mac programs. Gimp doesn't normally use the system clipboard for cut-and-pasting images,probably due to X11's traditionally cryptic clipboard system. The Windows portthough has for some time shipped with a plug-in to add this support.Access to system services for screen capture and scanning will also be provided upon installing this plugin. Requirements: · Gimp 2 Limitations: · Right now you can only paste directly into RGB and grayscale images; you cannot paste into an indexed-color image (but you can copy from one). · Indexed images will always be copied as RGB; an indexed image won't be associated with its color palette. · Many classic and Carbon apps (such as Photoshop) will ignore transparency copied from Gimp; you'll get ugly black backgrounds. Pasting transparency from eg Photoshop or GraphicConverter *into* Gimp should work, however. · Transparency should work with most Cocoa apps also, but partially transparent areas may accumulate rounding errors due to conversion between premultiplied and non-premultipled alpha. · May be slower than necessary and hog memory on large images. · Sometimes the marching ants around the pasted selection show weird patterns instead of what you'd expect; it clears up when you move the selection. What's New in This Release: · Added support for loading PICT files · Fixed disabled undo on 'acquire from clipboard'
