Phatch 0.2.5 is pretty close to the dev trunk. Please file this bug in the bug tracker and attach a tarball with your actionlist and an example picture. If I can reproduce the bug, I can fix it.

This is essentially filing a bug, but it seems that the bug tracker only supports the dev version, and I'm not using Ubuntu. So I guess this is the best place. I am running 64-bit Debian Squeeze/testing and got phatch from the standard repository; the version installed is 0.2.5-1.
I give in a very simple Action List: the only items are scale and save. Upon executing the window suddenly closes, and this is reproducible… meaning I effectively cannot use Phatch. I decided to run it from the terminal to get some feedback:
~$ phatch
Traceback (most recent call last):

The first 8 lines, up to and including AttributeError are produced when specifying the JPEG quality.
The last four lines are caused upon execution. Note that I specified an absolute path under the "save" action item, because I would like to process 80 GB in over 200 directories; which I don't want on the same partition as the source, since it wouldn't fit. It might well work without specifying an absolute path beyond what phatch specifies; but I need to specify a different partition.

Hi Roger,
Thanks for feedback. Nadia and I, both phatch developers, are now busy preparing a talk for pycon 2010. I can't answer all your questions now. If you want to get involved in phatch development, please say hello on the phatch development mailing list:
https://launchpad.net/~phatch-dev
The image object is of PIL:
http://www.pythonware.com/products/pil/
The photo object is a phatch object.
We are always looking forward to new contributors. What would you be interested in?

In the contents side pane 'Developpers' has a typo: it should contain just 1 p. I saw it written like this elsewhere on Phatch-pages, too;
Now I remeber: the forum category.

In the contents side pane 'Developpers' has a typo: it should contain just 1 p. I saw it written like this elsewhere on Phatch-pages, too; maybe you can grep the pages to find them.
On the Contribute page, you might want to refer to the Extensions page as well.
After creating a wikidot account I still could'nt edit any page, is this correct? Or did I miss the 'edit this page' link/button?
The page that explains how to write actions,
http://photobatch.wikidot.com/writing-actions
states that the user place to store actions is
~/.phatch/actions/
whereas on my machine (Ubuntu9.10, installed via your ppa) it is
~/.local/share/phatch/actions/
Below 'Info and metadata', photo.get_info() should be used to look up info. But it is not clear where photo is obtained from. Should this be image.get_info()?
The save.py module in phatch/actions still uses photo.info()
Also, when I try to use photo.log in my action, I get an error that it is an unknown attribute. Could you please expand on this 'photo' object?
Likewise, how can a developer find out more about the 'image' object? It took me quite some time to find out that it has an attribute size.
Some more typos:
The tutorial also mentions a web page at
http://trac.gbiloba.org/phatch
which is (still ?) unavailable (HTTP 404 error).
Finally, are user submitted extensions reviewed very, very carefully?
Because it would be very easy for some Evil Person to wipe out all the files of a user by executing a Python script, wouldn't it?
The user submitted action 'Conditional Transpose' does not work currently.
It wants to import an unknown function 'new' and defines an (IMHO) outdated function 'values' since the function condtitionaltranspose could just query image.size.
Best regards,
Roger
What do you mean exactly. Can you give a sample input and output image?

Which I can do in Gimp - one at a time… :-(
I just started with Phatch yesterday - is wonderful.
Thanks

<year>, <month>, <day> are not exif variables, but file attributes. Please use the exact exif variables names instead.
Hi,
I use Phatch just to save photo in this format /dir/<year>-<moint>-<day>/. But sometimes, photo are saved in a directory dis-according with exif data.
For example, i have a photo with this date in exif data (i use exif tool include in Phatch to read this) : sunday december 2009, but image is saved in directory 2007-1-28.
What's wrong ?

Stani, I love your software. It has really saved me a ton of time. I am going to write software to automate Icon processing and would appreciate any input I can get from you.
I created a "Lava Theme Pack" for linux and used Phatch to convert the icons for resizing. You can read more about that here. My ultimate goal is to have a single scalable SVG Iconpack, is this possible in Phatch? Imagemagik is not cutting it and its SVG support is limited at best.
I did say I was going to write software; I have written a USplash Maker, a GDM Maker & XSplash maker Ultimate Edition Nautilus Scripts. I am eventually looking to write GUI themeing tools from top to bottom (totally automated). A icon conversion tool is next in line. I am looking to write a nautilus script mime typed to index.theme right click the icon theme file and Icon conversion tool is launched, user input for hex values of fore and back colors converted as user input as your colourise plugin does; output as svg. Recreation of index.theme.
Any pointers you can provide would be greatly appreciated. I thought I would let you know Phatch is included in Ultimate Edition 2.5 it has been released and is being enjoyed by many a user, including me ;)
Thanks & Merry Xmas,
TheeMahn

Phatch doesn't currently support that. We can add an option with a slider to the color to alpha action. That will allow you to change the opacity threshold and remove semi-transparent parts.
Would you like to file a blueprint about this?
Thank you for using Phatch

Interesting feedback. So what would you propose? That the first time in droplet mode the dialog is shown and that afterwards it assumes the same settings? Please describe in detail how you want it to work. No promises however.
Repeat image will repeat each image n times. This can be useful with python expressions to put eg different texts on the same image.

We're working on an easy version for Windows. If you want to beta-test please contact Nadia:

Also I'd like to thank the developer(s) for making this awesome application! It's one of the most useful picture-editing-related things I've ever downloaded. (I would donate if I had a job!)

Does setting the height to '600px' and width to '100%' in the Scale action work?

Hi all
I'm resizing photos for a digital photo frame and they all have to be 600px high, but will have varying widths. I'd like to specify the height but have Phatch choose the width accordingly based on constrained proportions.
Is this possible?
Any help much appreciated :)

When using Phatch as a droplet (view —> droplet), which is a great feature by the way, it is often convenient to drag images one at a time, for example when sorting, onto the droplet. The inconvenience is that every image dropped results in the 'drag and drop' dialog box appearing, allowing you to specify options and file types. Is it possible to tell Phatch to simply start - otherwise you have to click 'Batch' every time you drag and drop an image.
Also, is there any documentation for this dialog, I'm not sure what the option 'Repeat images' does!
Thanks for your help.

Thanks for reporting. In phatch 0.2 the action lists from the tutorial are shipped in the library (File>Open Library…). I've updated the text to reflect this.

The action list for the "Rounded thumbs with 3d perspective and reflection "-tutorial (and possibly others) doesn't work with Phatch 0.2.4.
Can you please update those action lists.
Thanks

I had no problem installing on Mac OS X Leopard (10.5), the macport way :
sudo port install py26-pil py26-wxpython
If you didn't install it previously, it will fetch, build and install python2.6, among other dependencies.
Then launch Phatch from its directory :
python2.6 phatch/phatch.py
PS Phatch is a nice piece of software, my best regards to the devs.
