Website update: current status
by Maren Hachmann
Hi there,
Martin, Bryce and Travis from our friendly hosters at OSUOSL have worked
on switching the inkscape.org website to the newer version this evening.
In some parts of the world, due to DNS propagation, you might not yet
see the new page, but you will soon (it looks pretty much the same,
though, just the backend is newer).
It now features a new shiny django (yay!).
Unfortunately, it currently has problems with page edits, news edits and
resource uploads.
Please hold off editing anything on it, to not lose any work.
Martin is working on fixing things, and will let you know when it's good
for editing again.
Downloads and viewing the pages work as usual (except for viewing pasted
texts), so most people won't be affected by the issues.
Kind Regards,
Maren

About knots selection
by Antonio Ospite
Hi,
I was looking into fixing
https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1707919 and, after compiling a
recent Inkscape version I noticed that the behavior of knot changed wrt.
selection and dragging compared to 0.92.x.
After some research on the mailing list I found the change mentioned
here:
https://inkscape.org/en/news/2017/07/12/what-happened-hackfest-2017/
I can see the benefit of keeping knots selected to be able to move
them with the keyboard but I still find the new behavior a little
unintuitive, at lest for shape editing:
1. The colors of the mouse-over and selected states are the same,
maybe the coloring scheme of node paths can be copied: where
mouse-over color is different from the selected and dragging colors
which are the same.
2. Previously selected knots look still selected when _another_ knot
is dragged without pressing Shift.
Steps to replicate:
1. Change size of a rect using one corner.
2. Then change the size using the opposite corner.
The firs corner looks still selected.
3. Shift-click does not really select arc knots for ellipses, or
rounding knots for rects, because this action is already used for
something else, e.g. to close the arc instead.
Would it be possible to use Ctrl-Shift-click for the current
function and leave Shift-click for the normal select behavior?
IMHO this would be more consistent.
4. Dragging with the mouse only affects the last selected knot, even
if multiple ones are selected, but this is not a big deal, the
behavior is different compared to path nodes, but both make sense
IMHO.
I'll resume working on https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1707919
after the details from above are sorted out, to avoid overlapping
problems.
Thanks,
Antonio
P.S.
When verifying 1. I also noticed that path nodes change their size when
clicked the _first_time_ but then get smaller again if the object
is unselected and re-selected; however this is unrelated to the message
above, I'll file a separate bug report for that if it can considered a
bug, what do you think?

Problems attempting to compile inkscape-0.92.3 for Mac using Mojave (REPOST)
by Bryan Dunphy
I received no replies regarding this issue the first time I posted this so I’m trying again.
I followed the directions in /inkscape-0.92.3/packaging/macosx/README.txt
The last step "LIBPREFIX="$MP_PREFIX" ./osx-build.sh a c b -j 5 i p -s d” returned the following error messages at the end of the output
Configure failed
Package requirements (cairomm-1.0 >= 1.9.8
glibmm-2.4 >= 2.28
giomm-2.4
sigc++-2.0 >= 2.0.12
) were not met:
No package 'cairomm-1.0' found
No package 'glibmm-2.4' found
No package 'giomm-2.4' found
No package 'sigc++-2.0’ found
I captured all of the output to a file if it would help for me to post it somewhere.
How do I fix this?

Font attributes not available in Inkscape
by Ivan Louette
Hi
Often after designing a font with FontForge the attributes (Italic, Bold or others) are available in LibreOffice or Scribus but not in Inkscape (even in latest Trunk releases). And sometimes it happens to commercial fonts too.
Is that a naming question ? And what is absolutely needed to make the attributes available in Inkscape ?
Thanks in advance,

Default Palette
by unknown＠example.com
Dear devs,
I've had some complaints that Inkscape's default palette isn't that
welcoming to new users. It's too harsh and varied. A number of users
have asked me personally why we don't use the Tango palette as our
default palette and move Inkscape default to a new name.
I don't actually know which palette would be the best to have as the
default. Would a poll be a useful way to find out?
To aid, I've committed a soc2gpl script so we can have a look at
LibreOffice palettes for comparison.
Best Regards, Martin Owens
