Hey Devs!
Event: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/64/ Attending: Martin, Mike, Philip, Tav, Willy Next: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ (TIME HAS CHANGED!)
Mike has been working on making the newer spin button widget used in the rest of the project. Migrating over the UnitTracker and various widget fixes.
Willy is trying to fix 1.4.x: text tool pop-over Spinbutton changes, pop-over closes. and Command bar collapsing issue.
Pbs talked about animation and live preview, some time was spent discussing the preview functionality and what we can do to allow changes to be previewed without modifying the document or abusing the rendering engine with extra changes at unexpected times. This discussion was quite long.
RPATH issues in our build systems are ongoing.
Tav has been working on macOS bugs and crashes where jpeg files are not accessable from finder, this involved learning a lot of how macOS works for depevelopers. and color font support and getting the tests all smoothed out.
Talking about the late meeting situation, looks like the best time is 2 hours after the early meeting. Which is about 3 hours earlier than currently set. 6pm France, Noon in Boston, 1am Asia etc.
Pbs and Martin talked about the filters engine work and the need for clearing up the premultiplicating situation in bilinear interpolation for various different spaces.
Martin has been working on harmonising spin button user experience.
Thanks for coming everyone!
Best Regards, Martin Owens
