This revision needs to go away, for some reason SVK decided that my older copy of the repository was the correct one and backed out everyone's changes today. Does anyone know how to delete a revision? --Ted -------- Forwarded Message -------- Revision: 10845 Author: gouldtj Date: 2006-02-05 21:38:08 -0800 (Sun, 05 Feb 2006) ViewCVS: http://svn.sourceforge.net/inkscape?rev=10845&view=rev

by bulia byak 06 Feb '06

06 Feb '06

How do I get the tree on the given date from svn? Following the instructions does not work: $ svn update --revision {2005-12-19} svn: REPORT request failed on '/svnroot/inkscape/!svn/vcc/default' svn: Cannot replace a directory from within Or do I have to go back to CVS for dates before the conversion to svn? -- bulia byak Inkscape.

I think the only session that I'm 100% out on is the last session on Saturday, I have to leave early. I want to see the keynote on Sunday, but that is before the exhibition floor opens anyway. Any other presentations would be fine, but there is nothing I need to see. So, if it's you and me, we can go to the bathroom :) I've also got another friend who may come, not an Inkscape or Linux person, but just loves conferences. We'll see how that pans out. I'm still trying to convince the Wacom rep for LA that he should loan us tablets for the computers. Then people would only be beating on those :) Otherwise, I think it would be wise to pick up some cheap USB keyboard/mouse combos. I don't personally have a desktop, I think that would be better. I'll ask around if I can find some to borrow for the weekend. I don't think we need anything that modern. > Having done a bunch of these, live art is cooler, hanging art is more > initial work (getting posters printed) but a whole lot easier at the > conference.

If nothing else I can open some entries from OCAL, and turn on the node editor so it looks like I know what I'm doing ;) Or, we can just put up the about screen when people aren't using the computer. --Ted

Qudos!

I don't think anyone's already pointed it out, but Inkscape's been mentioned on iStockPhoto! The article can be read at http://www.istockphoto.com/article_view.php?ID=156 (it is only a brief mention, but a mention's a mention, isn't it?!) Keep up the good work! Dave.

Snapping guides lines to objects...
by Jiri Tyr 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

Hello, I would like to use Inkscape for serious work and I'm missing one think, is it snapping guides lines to the objects. It is very importent think if you want to draw some object in similar possition to the other object. Please try to add this imporvement to the next version. Btw. I have to say, that Inkscape looks very interesting. Best Regards, Jiri Tyr

scripting bug
by Mathew James Oakes 03 Feb '06

03 Feb '06

osx 10.3.9, python 2.3, Inkscape 0.4.3 (Inkscape_20060120.dmg) installed PyXML-0.8.4 successfully nothing happens when you go: File >> Execute Python in the script dialog starting inkscape from command line gives only this error when that command is executed: interpretScript: error starting Language '(null)' I do other python stuff, and was looking forwards to generating complex artwork from algorithms in a form that was human editable later. cheers Mat
