ERROR WITH INKSCAPE 0.43-2 (this one has the screenshots-sorry.)
by Anonymous User 05 Jan '06

05 Jan '06

I am using Windows ME to try to load INKSCAPE 0.43-2 after installation - but it crashes. All that I get instead are the following error messages back to back: PANGO ERROR**:file shape.c:line 75 (pango_shape): assertion failed:(glyphs-> num_glyphs > 0) aborting... "Then after that I get": PANGO ERROR**:file shape.c:line 75 (pango_shape): assertion failed: (glyphs-> num_glyphs > 0) aborting... Pango warning (recursed)**:Couldn't load font "MS Sans Serif 8" falling back to Sans 8" aborting... I am attatching screenshots of these errors as they appear on my screen. WHAT IS CAUSING THIS AND HOW CAN I MAKE IT STOP? - IS THERE A CORRECTIVE PATCH OR SOMETHING? I can't even get INKSCAPE to load - PLEASE HELP ME! Thank You - oddball_arty_guy@...36... --------------------------------- Yahoo! Photos Ring in the New Year with Photo Calendars. Add photos, events, holidays, whatever.

export dialog breakage
by bulia byak 05 Jan '06

05 Jan '06

Lately the export dialog got broken: you can't click on Selection, it always goes back to Custom with some wild w/h values. It's basically unusable because of this. There were no suspicious commits to export.cpp so the problem is elsewhere. I'm very busy with work right now and cannot investigate further. I would really appreciate if those who did many commits lately (especially rwst and cth103) could check if some of their changes were the reason. Thanks! -- bulia byak Inkscape.

ZINK documentation removed
by Pim Snel 03 Jan '06

03 Jan '06

Hi, In the discussion about the store-as-zink-plugin I was advised to create good documentation so people know how to install and use the zink-plugin. I created a Wiki page at inkscape.org with the first documentation, but the link to the page is now removed from the frontpage in the revision: Revision 504 . . (edit) December 25, 2005 5:53 pm by pool-70-22-95-197.balt.east.verizon.net [despamming] Is it possible to have it back again. I hope to go on with the development, adding more compatibility and security and also hope the code will be added to CVS. Pim Snel

NEW: user's templates
by bulia byak 02 Jan '06

02 Jan '06

Document templates (listed in File > New) are now first searched in the templates subdirectory of the user's profile directory (on Linux it's ~/.inkscape/templates), then in the system-wide Inkscape templates directory. This allows you to add your own templates on top of the list of standard templates, as well as override the default template with your own one (the default.svg in the profile directory has priority over the system-wide one). -- bulia byak Inkscape.
