The win32 build, which was broken for the weekend, is working again. I just made a "manual autobuild" again, so that we can see how it looks on Windows: http://troi.titan-aeu.com/~rjamison/inkscape/builds/ Bob

Problems building on Ubuntu 16.04
by mathog 24 Apr '18

24 Apr '18

Upgraded the Ubuntu 14.04 system which had endless build problems to Ubuntu 16.04. It doesn't seem to like 16.04 much better. Different problems, but still problems. Cleaned out the build directory and did: cmake .. which failed at ... WITH_OPENMP: ON WITH_PROFILING: OFF WITH_YAML: OFF ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND. Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files: POPPLER_INCLUDE_DIR used as include directory in directory /usr/local/src/inkscape_trunk used as include directory in directory /usr/local/src/inkscape_trunk used as include directory in directory /usr/local/src/inkscape_trunk used as include directory in directory /usr/local/src/inkscape_trunk <SNIP many lines> -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

to-do list for interface issues?
by brynn 09 Jul '17

09 Jul '17

Hi Friends, As I've seen mentioned in this mailing list recently, it seems like a lot of new work is planned for improving the interface, in the near future. We come across issues all the time in forums. So I'm wondering if someone is maintaining a to-do list, or list of issues that need to be addressed? It would be easy for us to help you identify issues, by adding items to a list, if you would find it helpful....if there is such a list somewhere. Thanks, brynn

Update (merge request) for bool LPE
by Michael Soegtrop 03 Jul '17

03 Jul '17

Dear Inkscape Team, I did a merge request for an updated bool LPE. See the merge request comments. What I still need is a method to check if a PathVector is closed or open. I want to issue an error message if the operands are not as expected, but I couldn't find a way to do this. Jabier wrote that there is some isClosed() function, but I couldn't find anything around a PathVector. Any help with this is appreciated. Best regards, Michael

Git Critical Issues?
by Ted Gould 01 Jul '17

01 Jul '17

Hello, I get the feeling that we're all in good shape with the Git repos, but I wanted to ensure that there aren't any critical issues before starting to clean up the Bazaar repos in Launchpad. Last call for critical issues. Anyone? Thanks, Ted

GitLab Subgroup
by Ryan Gorley 30 Jun '17

30 Jun '17

Over the past couple weeks I've been exploring the best location(s) to organize the Inkscape outreach and marketing team (a.k.a. Vectors). The team will need some access to GitLab in any regard for storing collateral, however the Issue Board <https://about.gitlab.com/features/issueboard/> could be an excellent project management and communication area in its own right. In order to explore that option I would like to create a "vectors" subgroup. I've already requested access, but I'm not sure who manages that and could grant my account sufficient permissions to manage that subgroup and perhaps create additional subgroups within the vector subgroup. Will whoever has this capability take a minute to help me out? Thanks! Ryan Gorley @ Dijt <https://dijt.co/>

How to propose patches
by Daniel A. Wagenaar 28 Jun '17

28 Jun '17

I created a patch to improve the selection toolbar. It creates two new pull-downs. One determines whether the "X" coordinate refers to the left of the selection (as normal), or the center, or the right; and whether changing the width keeps the left, center, or right edge in place. The second does the analogous function for "Y". Several years ago, I had write access to the inkscape archives, but no more. Can someone please explain where I should send a patch, or if there is some other procedure? Thanks! -- *Daniel A.
