The Formulas Rendering Plug-In for the Gimp 2 is a simple plugin that allows you to change the values of each color channel of each pixel of a layer by using mathematical expressions. It is able to handle RGB* and Gray* images. Available operators are: +, -, *, /, ^, and %. There are many functions available, such as sin, cos, sqrt, abs, min, max. A few constants are provided (pi, e, j), and a lot of pre-defined variables are usable (w for image's width, h for image's height, x and y for cartesian coordinates in the image, etc.).

Changes: This release has an improved and cleaned up formula parser (support for multiple arguments functions, precalculation, etc.). New functions were added (min, max, rand, sign, log2, and atan2). New values were added (r and t for polar coords; red, green, blue, gray, and alpha now stand for original pixels). The help has been improved and a 'Reset' button is now available.


Changes: This release adds a help file with a screenshot, repairs the rendering on Gray* layers, and cleans up the formula parser (it now uses GLib HashTable). There are minor fixes and clean-ups. The name of the binary file has been fixed again.


Changes: A preview inside the plugin dialog has been added. 2 important bugs inside the formula evaluator have been fixed. The sinh, asinh, cosh, acosh, tanh, and atanh functions have been added. Default plugin formulas are 'r', 'g', 'b', and 'a'. The name of the binary file has been fixed (please read the README if upgrading). There are various cleanups.

I think this plugin is neat because it updates the preview in real time as you are typing the formulas in. It's nice just to see what happens. Very cool.
