Using Phatch 0.1.6 for Windows

Color to Alpha is new in Phatch 0.2, which is not officially released yet besides in Debian/Ubuntu. If you use another os, it is temporarily available from:
http://sd-2469.dedibox.fr/photobatch/download/package/phatch-0.2.4.tar.gz
What Phatch version are you using?
I have quite a few actions available to me, but not the one I need. I cannot find Color to Alpha.
Can you copy & paste all warnings?
in discussion Users / Support » Got it running but ...
I had to download a new version of one of the dependancies because it failed to install first time. However the DOS window reports "…\phatch\core\lib\formfield.py:272: Deprecation warning: Base exception.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6 self.message = message".
When the program runs other errors or warnings come up but it does at least do the watermarking successfully. I have not tried the others yet.
Advice welcome

It looks like PIL-1.1.6.win32-py2.6.exe is not properly installed. If you are sure you installed it, please remove it.
Afterwards download it from here and try again:

I did as you suggested, but the command "python phatch.py" gave an error stating that "python" was not a valid command. By entering simply "phatch.py", the below error came out, which I believe is the same error that appears briefly after I double-click on the phatch.py icon:
c:\phatch\phatch>phatch.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

No the phatch directory can be anywhere. To keep it simple put it as "C:\phatch" Open in the start menu of windows the "Run" entry and type "cmd" (or open the DOS command prompt in another way).
Go inside this folder:
cd C:\phatch\phatch
and start phatch:
python phatch.py
Paste back the error you get.

Heya. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.
I downloaded the first link under Windows on the "Install" wikidot page - "phatch-dependencies-win32-py26.zip", and installed the four dependencies in the order noted in the readme, then installed the 3 "optional" programs, too.
These files are saved in C:\Python26
Does the "phatch-0.1.6" directory need to be saved in a particular place?

What downloads did you use to install phatch?

I believe I followed the instructions to the letter, but now when I double-click on the "phatch.py" icon, a black command prompt appears for a second, some text runs down it, then it closes, and nothing happens.
- One thing that may have impacted, is that, when installing wxPython, there was a checkbox at the end, which "changed all .py files to .pyc". I'm not sure if I should have left this checked, or if I should have changed phatch.py to phatch.pyc. -
If neither of those appear to be the answer, I'm keen to uninstall and re-install to try again - would the normal Windows "Add/Remove Programs" be applicable here, or would it be more in-depth?

It looks like you want:

Please subscribe to the blueprint. The more subscribers, the more we will take it in consideration.
Some questions:
- You don't want the images deleted from the images folder right?
- Does your images folder has subfolders?
- What condition should be used? filename, modification time, …

Hmm… which node editing branch? The only one which I might have talked about was to integrate Blender node editor into Phatch. Unfortunately this is problematic with Blender 2.4X We've looked at it but decided to base the work on Blender 2.5 I hope at the Blender conference to talk with the Blender developers about it.
Could you post me in a private message who you are?
in discussion Developpers / Development » Following the developpment
I've been looking for information on how trying the node editing branch, but found nothing. May be i missed it, but could somebody point me to any server (svn or so) or any archive i could download. Since i've talked about it a lot with stani even at LGM and RMLL this year, i would be really please to follow this and report as i can.

Hi everyone.
I'd like to explain my idea about what I miss in Phatch, but before I'd like to thank to everyone that contribute this great tool.
I mainly use Phatch to make a "copycat" version of /images folder, into a /light_images folder. Why? I use it to quickly see my photos from other computers in my network. You know, WiFi, Disk, 10Mpix photos,…everything counts to slow every picture load.
So that, from my 50% photos folder, I can quickly run F-Spot, Picasa or whatever visor very well.
I'd like Phatch to "detect" that new photos have been loaded into my /images folder, and automatically resize and copy them to /light_folder.
Would be possible? Useful? It least, YES to me.
Thanks
Regards,
^_Pepe_^

Interlaced pngs are supported in the upcoming version 0.2.2
in discussion Users / Support » Exif image orientation, EOS 450D
Sorry for the delay but I can confirm that the version (0.2.1-4) in Debian Testing (squeeze) handles 450d EXIF orientation in a correct manner! Awesome!
This really made my day… :) Thank you, lots!

Ha, interesting a Mac user. Interesting! With Phatch 0.2 we would like to offer better cross platform versions. So we need your feedback.
Could you send me your email in a private message? You have to click the top left combobox where it is saying select. The crop action is available in phatch 0.2 which release is already finished and stable but only available through bazaar:
bzr branch lp:phatch
I can email it to you if you want. Phatch 0.2 has many new features and I would recommend it strongly over Phatch 0.1

Hi,
I am running OSX 10.5 and have found that only a handful of actions appear in the GUI add to list - whereas I see a lot more in the actions folder.
How do I get to use all actions?
BTW, I notice there is no crop.py - should there be?
Many thanks.

I had not heard of it until today, you can count on it being in Ultimate Edition 2.4, I have uploaded it to our repository. You did an awesome job. We get tons of traffic. I'll make you famous ;) I seen 1/2 a Petabyte of traffic last month, not including mirrors. 1/2 of which is repo traffic. I have taken it one step further. I have added it to the currently unreleased Ultamatix as soon as I upload Ultamatix -8 release to the Repo all UE users will have it at their disposal:
Sorry about the large image, I have a 22" widescreen. I will add your website to the bottom of the description in Ultamatix prior to release.
Thanks again,
TheeMahn
