combo in extensions
by Alexandre Prokoudine 24 May '08

24 May '08

Hi, I'm looking at several recently added extensions (especially "3D models", but also "Perfect Bound Book") and wondering if we can use comboboxes instead of radiobuttons. That would shrink dialogs vertically a lot. Alexandre

making inkscape xembeddable
by unknown＠example.com 23 May '08

23 May '08

Hello, I tried to make inkscape xembeddable with the following in main.cpp: int socket_id=atoi("67108897");//xargv[1]); Gtk::Plug w(socket_id); printf("plug id:%d socket_id:%d\n",w.get_id(),socket_id); main_instance.run(w); that is, I just tried to pass a Gtk::Plug initialized with a gtk_socket in another process to main_instance.run(). This doesnt work. Any hints as to why? The context is that I'm working on a patch to allow applications to be xembeddable in an emacs window. This works with other apps than my patched inkscape. The goal in this case is to provide an alternate command based gui for inkscape using emacs. -- Joakim Verona

Modevia will be regenerating their SSH host keys sometime tonight. I was actually informed of this a few days ago and I kept forgetting to forward it to the list. Sorry for any inconveniences. I'll respond with the correct key fingerprints as soon as someone tells me. Aaron Spike

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Accessing individual nodes in a path
by Bob Jamison 22 May '08

22 May '08

If you look at the SVG-DOM spec, instead of defining the nodes, they defines the path segments: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG11/paths.html#DOMInterfaces SVGElement implements SVGAnimatedPathData, which has getPathSegList() and its variants. And the list holds the segments, each of the subtypes of which has the node data. bob -----Original Message----- >From: Maximilian Albert <Anhalter42@...173...> >Sent: May 21, 2008 9:20 AM >To: inkscape <inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net> >Subject: [Inkscape-devel] Accessing individual nodes in a path > >Hi, > >for a couple of applications I have in mind it would be very desirable >if one was able to access and refer to individual nodes in a path in a >way that is unaffected by future insertion/deletion of other nodes (in >much the same way as accessing the members of a linked list is >unaffected by insertion/deletion of other elements). > >How easy would it be to achieve this, especially considering the change >of path representations to 2geom?

Path intersection, union, difference code
by Frederich, Eric P21322 21 May '08

21 May '08

Hey guys, I'm writing a program that generates SVGs. I realized how big of a pain paths are. Right now I am basically just doing straight lines. The curves that I do have are radii and they're all 90 degree semi circles. Those were a pain too, luckily I stumbled upon http://www.whizkidtech.redprince.net/bezier/circle/ and I can create them in my paths. Anyway, I'm at the point where I need to start doing some more complicated things. I can do these things easily in Inkscape but I'm finding it difficult to generate the path data directly. I am wondering where in the source of Inkscape I can find the routines that do the intersection, union, and difference of paths so that I can incorporate it into my code. Thanks, ~Eric

Accessing individual nodes in a path
by Maximilian Albert 21 May '08

21 May '08

Hi, for a couple of applications I have in mind it would be very desirable if one was able to access and refer to individual nodes in a path in a way that is unaffected by future insertion/deletion of other nodes (in much the same way as accessing the members of a linked list is unaffected by insertion/deletion of other elements). How easy would it be to achieve this, especially considering the change of path representations to 2geom? What would be necessary to implement it? Can this be easily integrated into existing path representations? Max

NEW: SVG Output preferences
by unknown＠example.com 20 May '08

20 May '08

Hello all, I have exposed the SVG Output preferences in a new tab in the preference dialog. Because of some of the preferences I am not too sure what they do, the tooltip text might be wrong. I hope someone who does know can fix them. The "allowshorthands" option seems not used anywhere in Inkscape code. Does anybody know what happened with this option? (I have commented it out, so it does not show up in Pref dialog) Thanks, Johan

categorisation of LPE
by Alexandre Prokoudine 20 May '08

20 May '08

Hi, There are 15 LPE in the combobox currently and at least Lattice Deformation LPE is going to hit 0.47. Then pluggable LPE are coming. Should we start thinking about catogerisation of LPE before the poor little combobox is overpopulated? ;-) Alexandre
