Hi Robert, Could you submit this as a bug report? Thanks, Bryce ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 20 Nov 2003 20:28:21 -0500 From: Robert Crosbie <swingincelt@...19...> To: inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Inkscape-devel] transformation innaccuracies I noticed the transformations applied to objects is quite inaccurate: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="100.000000" y="100.000000" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Opening the transformations dialog and applying 10 horizontal gives this: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="112.500000" y="99.9999695" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Also, If I take that original square and rotate it 10, I get this: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="62.2319183" y="131.691177" transform="matrix(0.984808,-0.173648,0.173648,0.984808,0.000000,0.000000)" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Why have my x and y changed? Shouldn't the matrix handle all aspects of the transformation and leave x and y as they were?

mouse wheel
by Yemu 23 Nov '03

23 Nov '03

i've just updated my copy of inkscape and i have one suggestion concerning mouse wheel support. inkscape now uses wheel to move vertically, ctrl+wheel to move horizontally and shift+wheel to zoom in/out. in other applications (mozilla, opera, abiword, openoffice, corel draw) ctrl+wheel zooms (i know, i know in gimp shift+wheel zooms :-). so maybe it would be possible to have ctrl+wheel zoom? or both ctlr+wheel or shift+whell zoom, and for example alt +wheel move horizontally. one more think i noticed is a fact that when scrolling, some black horizontal stripes blink during refreshing of a document. this doesn't happen when zooming. best regards yemu

svg icons
by Robert Crosbie 21 Nov '03

21 Nov '03

Just to confirm. Our preference is to try and load our icons from svg first and then default to xpm? I seem to remember reading something contrary to that in a code comment, not sure where now. Currently, I'm only looking at the xpm images when adding to the IconFactory, but I was planning on fixing that tonight.

cvs update
by Mael 21 Nov '03

21 Nov '03

Hello, when I browse cvs (http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/inkscape/inkscape/src/) everything is at least 5 days old, why can't I see the last changes ? I'm trying to update my local cvs to try Robert Crosbie changes concerning icons but can't get recent files (CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@...54...:/cvsroot/inkscape). What am I doing wrong ? M

cvs snapshots
by Kees Cook 21 Nov '03

21 Nov '03

While the original "download" webpage was fairly empty, the addition of the cvs-snap/ directory might make it more meaningful. At present, there isn't really any other good place to put a link to the nightly tarballs. What do the web folks think about putting download.php back into service looking something like: Sourceforge Releases -------------------- http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438 Nightly CVS Tarballs -------------------- Current: http://www.inkscape.org/cvs-snap/inkscape-current.tar.bz2 Historical: http://www.inkscape.org/cvs-snap/ -- Kees Cook @outflux.net

transformation innaccuracies
by Robert Crosbie 21 Nov '03

21 Nov '03

I noticed the transformations applied to objects is quite inaccurate: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="100.000000" y="100.000000" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Opening the transformations dialog and applying 10 horizontal gives this: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="112.500000" y="99.9999695" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Also, If I take that original square and rotate it 10, I get this: <rect width="200.000000" height="200.000000" x="62.2319183" y="131.691177" transform="matrix(0.984808,-0.173648,0.173648,0.984808,0.000000,0.000000)" style="font-size:12;fill:#808080;fill-rule:evenodd;stroke-width:1pt;" id="rect562" /> Why have my x and y changed?

Website broken links and stylesheets
by Alan Horkan 20 Nov '03

20 Nov '03

http://www.inkscape.org/ "November 13, 2003 - Tvon is working on the look and feel for the website. A version without CSS <URL:http://home.etria.org/nocss.html> is also available, as well as the original mockup. " The link i've inlined in the text above does not work, I would suggest putting an editorial note [Broken] to indicate the link is no longer available. As the web page designer is willing to provide a no CSS version it would be great if (s)he could specify a title for the style sheet and specify default/alternative so that users of Mozilla and Opera can easily turn off the stylesheet by choosing View -> Use Style. (I've just learnt CSS recently, dont ask me any difficult questions please :) In future would you prefer if I posted a bug report instead of emailing the list? (or is there a web maintainer I should mail directly, the is none indicated in the usual place, at the bottom of the page). Sincerely Alan Horkan http://advogato.org/person/AlanHorkan/ (this was another mail left languishing in my drafts folder all week, the webpage has switched over to the new design since then and it is sweet)

menu layout - small suggestion
by Yemu 20 Nov '03

20 Nov '03

i've just tried BORKEN branch and i like it a lot. i have a small idea though: i think that first menu item called "Inkscape" now, should be renamed to "About" and moved to the right end of the menu bar. cause in most applications "File" is always the first menu item, and this is what users are used to (me too :-) thanks to all developers for great improvements! when do you plan 0.36? best regards yemu
