clipboard
by Alexandre Prokoudine 10 Jun '09

10 Jun '09

Hi, According to ChangeLog last July there was support for Windows clipboard introduced. However on Linux copy/paste of paths still doesn't work between instances and Inkscape doesn't seem to announce it sent something to clipboard for other apps as well. GIMP does support pasting SVG paths from clipboard, but ironically the only application that is supposed to do that in fact doesn't do it. Amusing, eh? :) So, what can we do? Alexandre

Hi all, Shouldn't we add this "remove all guides" extension to Inkscape?

LGM 2010 - Vote on proposal
by Louis Desjardins 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

Hi, Several location were mentioned for LGM 2010, but only one has lead to a formal proposition. After the few mails we have read on this list, we now propose that we have a vote if we accept it or not. LGM would take place in Brussels, May 6-9 2010, hosted by the local non-profit organisation Constant, represented by Femke Snelting. The details of this proposal and the discussions around it have all been posted on the Create Mailing List. So, before announcing this officially, we need a clear support from the LGM participating teams. You are the heart of LGM! :) Your dedicated LGM organisers would like to move forward asap with an enthusiastic support on the decision. Please speak up now! :) Cheers! Louis -- Louis Desjardins Organisateur principal / Main organiser Libre Graphics Meeting 2009 - Montréal 6-9 mai 2009 www.libregraphicsmeeting.org/2009 +1 514 994 9351 (cell phone) +1 514 934 1353 (office phone) HAE / EDT GMT -5

version details
by Jon A. Cruz 09 Jun '09

09 Jun '09

I was fixing the bug about the svg version attribute not always being written, and came across two issues. The first is minor, but the second is one for a bit of collaboration. First is that I found our default version we've been adding is "1.0". Thus we end up with <svg = "1.0", whereas it really needed to be updated to "1.1". That bit of code has not been touched since Mental first imported things, so I'm very sure it is just an oversight. The second is that we are still adding this to every file: sodipodi:version="0.32" Is it safe to remove that now? I'm pretty sure we don't need to keep compatibility with SodiPodi anymore. I'd like to be about to clean up our use of the "sodipodi" namespace altogether... but that is really a large and involved task and most likely not one for now.

UC 1.1.4 is out
by Alexandre Prokoudine 08 Jun '09

08 Jun '09

Hi, UniConvertor 1.1.4 is out and among other things (PLT importer/exporter, which is useful to plotters users among our users) it features win32 build with VisualStudio 2008 which specifically addresses some of Inkscape's concerns :) It would be great if our Win packagers started using 1.1.4 from now on. Do you want me to create .inx for PLT? Alexandre

Hi! Sorry I might be missing something but I have not seen an official "string freeze" announcement. It seems like today is branching day? Would commits of translations be OK after today? Thanks. Marcin Floryan

multiple desktop use cases
by Glimmer Labs 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Do you ever use multiple Inkscape windows simultaneously (or know people that do?) If so, how, and under what circumstances? I am working on an Inkscape scripting API through GSoC and am trying to decide how to abstract the desktop concept. I would like to do this for two reasons. One, if it is not at least partially hidden virtually every method would need a desktop argument, incresing complexity without much tradoff in terms of flexibility. Two, the concept is not one that I think script writers should need to worry about and the terminoligy only makes it more confusing for the uninitiated. Of course I'm not everyone and so I want to get opinions on how working with multiple desktops simultaniously is useful for people so I can figure out how much functionality to expose. When I have a draft layout of the API finished (soon) I will ask for more general feedback on use cases people feel are not supported. Thank you for your feedback, -Soren Berg
