Lobster,
Close Plogo and then try it again.
I also have problems at times with the color not being sent correctly and sometimes a restart of the program works.
I just tried it with the font (thank you Joe Bass!) that your capture shows with a color picked from my desktop and it worked fine.
You can also use the colors example from gtkdialog.
Run it and then select a color from there for Plogo.
I am running Puppy Lupu 520 and that is what I used trying to determine if I could duplicate your session of using Plogo.
So if you get no color when you select Create, it is a glitch.
Read further back in this thread for the posts concerning this.

Plogo, IM and glitches
Dear puppians,
I will revisit plogo - look at it again and try to determine why the colour setting stuff sometimes bombs. I do not see anything in the code that would interfere with the setting routine, but I will look again. As for the saving of logos in other locations, it is possible, but, when conceiving plogo, I wanted images in one place along with the log file so that new pics could be recreated again with the same settings. I have made use of that facility. I imagine a copy button could be included (reducing the width of the existing buttons) that would launch a file dialog. I'll look into that as soon as I finish writing a streaming radio player that is now occupying much of my time.
With kind regards,
vovchik

Lobster, I do not know for sure if this will do it for you. But I had the same problem in Slacko 5.3.1 with missing libraries.Lobster wrote:Using Racy 5.2.2
Downloaded the fonts from Joe Bigbass
added imagemagick from PPM
. . . then I sobbed - for I had no Plogo
Command line gave me:
Code: Select all

They are actually for PMagic but the main thing is they work.
So extract the attached file to /usr/lib and Plogo should work.

Thanks guys, well I have the fonts in root .fonts# plogo
--------------------------------------------------
GTK font name: Abduction
IM font name: +++ NOT IDENTIFIED +++
Font color: #D34545
3Dcolor: #834343
Shadow color: #CDA2A2
copied them to the main font directory
so not sure why not identified . . .
Still nothing.
Dear puppians,
Some fonts do not show up because of the way GTK and IM interpret font names. They are what I call funky TTFs. You can actually go in with fontforge and change the font name and then it should work. I discovered that font names containing punctuation chars always cause problems, and a lot of Win fonts contain punctuation symbols. There are also so-called "bad" fonts that have overlapping glyphs - also a problem, but that can also be fixed in fontforge.
With kind regards,
vovchik

Due to circumstances of extreme security laxity (downloading undressed prawns from pirate bay again) I experienced the unbeknown (until now) - white screen of death
So I am now in a pristine Puppy
Installed imagemagick and Plogo as per Vovchick advice
Joes fonts
and nothing
. . . and then 8 bits suggestion . . .
I have plogo
Joy and rainbows. Puppys frisking in the streets.
Happy days are here again . . .
