Swatches Scrollbars
by Jon A. Cruz 19 Feb '06

I did a minor re-work on the panel stuff, and got the horizontal scrollbar to disappear on the swatches when it's embedded in the main UI. Take a peek and see if it helps any.

Message from Inkscape submission form Please note, that the submitter may not read this list. CC your answer to the submitter name: Adrian email: adrian.adm@...1182... submitted the following: I would like to check with you if you have any objections to our distributing some of your software on CD. We have found that many students have only access to a dial-up internet connection (or none at all), and so would like to be able to supply our students with a CD of the software that they may find useful as part of their studies. We have chosen the following software from your organisation to go on this CD: Inkscape You can find more information of the (fledgling) web site at www.springstep.co.uk. We hope we have made it clear that we have absolutely no rights over this software, and are providing links back to your web site for license terms, updates, and possibly, to purchase the paid-for version. All serials, registrations etc. would be handled through your web site in the normal way, as we will only be supplying the installation executable. You may, at the moment, see your software listed on the web site - please be assured we have released no discs so far that contain software to which you have not expressly agreed. We hope we will be able to provide the software shown above, and to be able to encourage and teach students in the use of it. Thanking you in advance for your consideration, Adrian

Strange behaviour of translation
by Lucas Vieites 18 Feb '06

18 Feb '06

Hi, from some time ago I'm having trouble testing my translation of Inkscape. I update from svn and the po file is completely translated (only a few strings are missing, but they belong to a filter/effect). I do the usual $ ./configure --prefix=/var/opt --with-perl --with-python $ make $ make install And when I run /var/opt/bin/inkscape I find that many of the strings that used to be OK in previous versions are now in english. I checked that the correct inkscape.mo file gets loaded, this command: $ strace inkscape 2>&1|grep open.*inkscape\.mo shows this: open("/var/opt/share/locale/es_ES.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/opt/share/locale/es_ES.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/opt/share/locale/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/opt/share/locale/es.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/opt/share/locale/es.utf8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/opt/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = 4 open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/es_ES.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/es_ES/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/es.UTF-8/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/share/locale-langpack/es/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) So the only file it finds (/var/opt/share/locale/es/LC_MESSAGES/inkscape.mo) is the correct one. Most of the strings I find in english are in the "Document Properties" dialog, see screenshot here: http://www.asixinformatica.com/files/inkscape_properties.png I hope it's no big probem ;-) Cheers, -- Lucas Vieites Fariña <lucas@...212...> Web: <http://www.asixinformatica.com/users/lucas/> Blog: <http://www.asixinformatica.com/blog/>

SCALE Inkscape Booth
by John Taber 16 Feb '06

16 Feb '06

Gareth, The Inkscape project would like to really thank you for the extra effort you made to get an Inkscape booth. We had lots of visitors and many were exposed to Inkscape for the first time. The show was so well run and the operations guys did an outstanding job with supplying us an extra table, extra power cords, and keeping internet connections going. Also having it at a hotel was extremely convenient. Hope to see you next year if not before. John
