Error on script-fu

Hi,

I'm new to the world of script-fu writing, and I'm trying to make a
script for repetitive actions I need to make.

Here is my script:
(define (make-pion-3d image calque)
(let *
(
(newCalque (car (gimp-layer-copy calque TRUE)))
)
(gimp-image-add-layer image newCalque 0)
(script-fu-add-bevel 0 image newCalque 30 FALSE FALSE)
)
)

(script-fu-register
"make-pion-3d"
"Make pion 3D"
"Creates a 3D pion"
"Didier Bretin"
"Didier Bretin"
"2009"
""
SF-IMAGE "Image" 0
SF-DRAWABLE "Calque du pion" 0
)
(script-fu-menu-register "make-pion-3d" "<Toolbox>/Xtns/Script-Fu/Pion")


And when I try to apply it on a layer, I got the following error:
Erreur d'exécution « Make pion 3D » :
Error: Procedure execution of gimp-image-get-active-drawable failed on
invalid input arguments: La procédure « gimp-image-get-active-drawable »
a été appelée avec un ID erroné pour le paramètre « image ». Très
probablement un greffon est en train d'essayer de travailler sur une
image qui n'existe plus.

The french error message tells that I use a false ID for the parameter
"image". Probably a script is trying to work on a image that doesn't
exist anymore.

Any idea which error I make ?

Regards.

It would seem you are executing the script with no image open. I would
recommend moving the command from the <Toolbox>/Xtns menu to the
<Image>/Filters menu, and also using a constraint of "*" (in the line
just before SF-IMAGE ...). This will ensure that an image exists when
the script is executed.

Is it possible to do an autostart script on gimp...

something that e.g. minimize the empty image or even move it out of my
viewport...

Hi,

Nobody can help me with this issue ?

I searched on the web, but I can't find an example which can help me
with this :(.

Thanks for your help or tips.

What about the first reply you got - didn't this help?

Not at all. Now my plugin is in the right menu, but I have the same error.

You should report back on whether a suggestion works, else people
might assume all is copacetic.

Looking deeper at your script, the problem is with the call which adds
the bevel:

>> (script-fu-add-bevel 0 image newCalque 30 FALSE FALSE)

When a Script-fu calls another Script-fu, you need to omit the
RUN-MODE (when calling a plug-in though, the RUN-MODE is needed). Your
call should be emended to:

>> (script-fu-add-bevel image newCalque 30 FALSE FALSE)

Yes you are right, sorry ;).

Great it works !

I will look deeper in the documentation to see if it's write somewhere.

Thanks again for the answer.
