Seems the problem is this rather evil bit of code in sp_dtw_desktop_shutdown: > if (doc && (((GObject *) doc)->ref_count == 1)) { Guess I was right about having exposed an existing bug. This is wrong for two reasons: 1. objects other than SPDesktops can reference SPDocuments, and there are non-inter-object-reference uses for refcounts: the wrong value being used for the wrong concept 2. GObject::ref_count is sort of an internal field (in the words of the glib API documentation, "All the fields in the GObject structure are private to the GObject implementation and should never be accessed directly.") The most obvious fix is to specifically keep a count of related active desktops in the SPDocument, and do a similar test with that. However, should we count SPDesktops, or more generally all SPViews (for example the preview view)? Is SPDocument necessarily the place to actually keep track of that, or should it be e.g. the Inkscape Application object? -mental

Inkscape::NSApplication ?

What's the 'NS' in NSApplication for? Some kind of Hungarian notation? I'm not particularly fond of it... -mental

Bleah, I can't seem to find the code for the actual close confirmation dialog. Could someone please direct me to the right place? -mental

Urgency and spirit
by Felix Rabe 15 Feb '05

15 Feb '05

Hi all, I agree that the CVS code should remain usable, but (not blaming anyone!) I don't think it is a productive way to then put everybody under pressure to fix every crash by yesterday. I just want to remind you (as an outsider and non-developer; I actually don't have any say here) that this project came into existence to grant more freedom to its developers. If you expect to have every bug fixed ASAP in (by nature) shaky code, you will start to drive people away again if you get used to this behavior. Just want to remind you *before* it becomes a serious problem. Greetings and happy hacking, - Felix

Selection in text editing
by Aewyn 15 Feb '05

Hi, I run into trouble again ;) How can I select text (some characters) while editing on canvas? I can, however with ctrl+shift+T, but it would be much easier on canvas. Thanks, Aewyn

Comment to bug 1077213
by Praktikant 15 Feb '05

15 Feb '05

Hi, This is the attachement I wanted to append to bug 1077213, but I didn't find out how to do it. This attachement is a snippet of the 300dpi export I did. Hope it helps. The dot is also missing at zoom levels between (ca.) 400% - 450%, among others. Inkscape 0.41 WinXP cu, Felix Rabe (aka xitnalta@...360...)

Update on Inkscape presentations
by Bryce Harrington 14 Feb '05

14 Feb '05

Hi all, We've got two proposals in for OSCon - one for a 90 min presentation by Ted and I about extensions in Inkscape, and a paper proposal by me and Kees on the Inkscape project methodology. In addition, it sounds like we may have someone who could do the SVG Open presentation (Piers, who lives there in the Netherlands). Rejon is working with him on trying to put it together. Bryce

[Fwd: Re: [Inkscape-devel] No more Brazilan Portuguese update?]
by Ludi Maciel 14 Feb '05

Ok. I and Fred will take it now.The Scribus and InkScape have the same translators for pt_BR now. I think that is good so now we can have a same guideline for the both apps and work close to Gimp translator too. Thanks.

I don't have any information on the guy (Juarez) who used to do the translation, but you could probably contact him (address in the PO file). It would be great if you could join him or take the stuff over from him. Arpad Biro __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
