Filters zoom problem solved
by Ivan Louette
While cleaning up the filters from unuseful primitives I removed some blur redundanceswhich caused that some Bevel filters display badly at full page zoom.
I commited the file some minutes ago.

Guide editing by mouse
by Maximilian Albert
Hi,
as a kind of test for some other things I have in mind I added better
support for editing guides by mouse. You will notice that the anchor
point of guides is now displayed on canvas as a small dot. You can
still move guides as you used to, but now you can also rotate them
around the anchor as well as move the anchor along the guide. What I'm
not really happy with, though, is the way in which the various
functionalities are accessed. So I'd like your help in this respect.
Currently it works as follows:
1) dragging the anchor moves the whole guide (and the anchor with it)
2) pressing Shift and dragging the anchor moves it along the guide
(while the guide itself stays in place)
3) dragging the guide anywhere outside the anchor rotates it around the anchor
4) pressing Shift and dragging the guide outside the anchor bypasses
rotation and moves the whole guide (as in 1.)
Does this make sense to you? Do you have better suggestions as to
which functionality should be accessed in which way/with which
modifier?
Thanks for your feedback,
Max

[NEW] Icon theming
by Krzysztof Kosiński
All icons used in Inkscape should now be themable. You can find out the names
by looking at the IDs in icons.svg, at icon names in in
share/icons/hicolor/scalable/*, or at the file src/ui/icon-names.h.
All names are defined in a new file, ui/icon-names.h. This file should be
used for all icon names used in Inkscape. I also removed stale files which
attempted to do the same but weren't used universally (ui/stock.h,
ui/stock-items.h, inkscape-stock.h).
Right now Inkscape uses the discrete SVG icons. I timed "hot" startup (using
"time inkscape --verb FileQuit" twice and noting the second run) and it
seems that it's actually faster (9.281s) than using icons.svg (9.799s),
probably because the RSVG renderer which renders the SVG icons in Gnome is
faster than ours.
Regards, Krzysztof Kosiński

markers
by jf barraud
Hi,
I've had to use markers in inkscape recently and found them very
frustrating: putting the markers in the middle of the semgents instead of
intermediate nodes is much better in many cases.
Consider a path made of horizontal and vertical segments: to show an
orientation on it, you'd like to add little arrows at the middle of the
segments, definitely not at the corners.
I know this contradicts the svg specification, wich has good reason to do so
(in patricular, I guess the middle of a segment is not so well defined...)
Then I came to the following minimal suggestion:
would it make sens to refine the svg spec to avoid/allow markers at
smooth/angular points?
Even in this case, this wont be a perferct solution: in many cases, I'd like
to have only one arrow at the middle of each smooth piece, even if that
piece requires many points to be drawn.
I don't see any svg compilent way to achieve this.
Any suggestion?
we could have lpe generated markers, more or less like what "pattern along
path" does, with improved placement of the pattern (= markers),
but I don't like this solution, as it is not natural to use lpe to do a
"stroking decoration"...
Cheers, jfb.

Draw freehand lines and Markers - Color
by Fantomas
Hi,
why is it 'Draw freehand lines' 'Start Markers' and 'End Markers' only
the color black?
Markers should be the same color as the Line...
or wrong?
Thanks Martin

it would be great if we had one student and mentor in Inkscape + one
student and mentor in Cairo working on the same feature. These 4
people could then put some effort in the development of ICC, each one
working on its own project and giving feedback to the other project.
Last year I had to interact often with cairo and pango guys because my
project did depend on a new feature of these libs (userfonts). But
they didnt seem to have clear deadlines for this feature. Even
nowadays we still dont have userfonts feature integrated into
libpango.
Having "sister SoC projects" could be a way of addressing this kind of issue.
