Agreed, but this needs some support from Jon too. Jon, can you implement a way to optionally represent the spinbutton toolbar control as a slider? -- bulia byak Inkscape.

mid release tarball
by jtaber 05 Sep '07

05 Sep '07

There's been a lot of great changes (image magik stuff, tweaking, dockable dialogs ....) - since there may not be an official release for several months - what about a more or less stable tarball (and maybe ubuntu pkg) - for many users to try out and give feedback - akin to a Ubuntu alpha release.

paste lpe?
by bulia byak 05 Sep '07

Johan, can you implement a "Paste path effect" verb, so that the LPE of the copied object is applied to selection (which may include multiple paths)? It would make using LPEs much more convenient. -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

Inkscape has a default theme on OS X
by jiho 05 Sep '07

05 Sep '07

Hello everyone, As of revision 16000 (yes I like round numbers, I think I also did commit number 15000!), development versions of Inkscape have a default GTK theme on OS X (no more of these ugly dark grey windows!) It is probably impossible for GTK to reproduce Aqua exactly, hence the theme does not aim at being an Aqua clone as other themes tried (and in my opinion, did not succeed). It rather tries to "fit" correctly with the rest of the interface. The theme is based on Clearlooks-Quicksilver which already features light gray colors, menu and text highlights and a smooth 3D feel. Further improvements were added such as: - aqua scroll-bars - Lucida Grande font - highlight and scroll-bars colors that use Mac OS X Appearance settings (aqua vs graphite, or blue vs grey vs graphite vs...). However you need to restart Inkscape for colors to change after you changed them in OS X preferences. In addition, Inkscape won't override the local theme preferences you may have in a ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file (so if you want to see the theme in Inkscape, temporarily move this file somewhere else). Some screenshots: - With OS X blue and blue highlights (OS X default) http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape_blue.png - With OS X blue and orange highlights (subtle changes) http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape_blue_orange.png - With OS X graphite and silver highlights (my personal favorite) http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape_graphite.png - And the old look, just to compare http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape_old_look.png There is probably room for improvement: the scroll-bars tips are not perfect, the text and background highlight colors can be differentiated (as in OS X), the icons are still gnome defaults and so on and so forth... but well I hope that this is at least better than before. NB: there is a devel build, on modevia, for you to test this out: http://inkscape.modevia.com/macosx-snap/?C=M;O=D sorry, only for Intel... the direct link is http://inkscape.modevia.com/macosx-snap/Inkscape-16002-i386.dmg Cheers, JiHO --- http://jo.irisson.free.fr/

Inkscape is a staff pick at Apple downloads
by jiho 05 Sep '07

05 Sep '07

Hello everyone, Looking for something else I just passed cross this on Apple's site: Inkscape is marked as staff pick by Apple currently. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/index_sp.html I don't remember that it was before so that's great news, given that the interface is X11 (which Mac users typically don't like), and not very pretty by default (which mac users usually care much about). However it seems to be a little lower in the most downloaded counts: it was in top 10 and is now 17. http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/unix_open_source/index_top.html But no doubt that the 0.46 release will bring all that up. Congratulations anyway. I've some GTK themes which look OK when integrated with OS X. Now if someone could tell me how to use GTK2_RC_FILES I'll be glad to try and use them in Inkscape. Cheers, JiHO --- http://jo.irisson.free.fr/

"make check" tests
by Jon A. Cruz 04 Sep '07

04 Sep '07

Guys, We need people to start running "make check" again, and trying to keep things up to date. If invoked from the src directory, it can check the main code without running through some of the other things such as translations. Anyway, I just fixed style-test.h so that the tests should compile again. Running it does show a lot of problems with attributes, though.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Crash on Win XP, cannot get backtrace
by Diederik en Rezi 03 Sep '07

Hi Johan, Not only does it crash when starting from within gdb, but also when I start Inkscape directly, without trying to debug it. I guess I was not clear on that. If it were only a gdb issue then I probably wouldn't have bothered ;-). It would be great to know whether it's reproducible, or maybe you are able to get a backtrace. You're programming on Windows, right? I'll try the file on my linux-machine at home and see where it leads to. The file will be sent in a separate mail to you personally, I'd rather not have it published on the mailing list as it's somewhat confidential.

Crash on Win XP, cannot get backtrace
by Diederik en Rezi 03 Sep '07

03 Sep '07

Hi, On opening one of my own recent Inkscape SVG files on my Windows XP machine at work, Inkscape apparently gets stuck in a loop (100% CPU usage). When I subsequently click on its main window, it crashes. It looks like it is stuck while redrawing the screen, as I can see part of my desktop and part of my SVG file. When starting through gdb however it also gets stuck, but it won't crash. How do I get some useful information from gdb to help debugging? Currently, I only have "unknown software exception 0xc00000fd" at "0x672ddbd9". I'm running Inkscape0709022056, as provided by ishmal. Diederik

menus
by Alexandre Prokoudine 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

Hi, With lots of additions overal last year menus become quite busy. A couple of observations. 1. We have both "Effects - Images" and "Effects - Raster" menus. Do we keep "Images" submenu for any possible effect not altering contents of raster images or just embedding/disembedding? If it's emdedding related only, should we probably then rename submenu? btw, I'm not really sure that the current way of dealing with embedding/exporting raster files in SVG document really optimal. See, opening an arbitrary file I can't tell if an image used there is embedded or not without looking into source code.There's no indicator to tell that. An improved hint in status bar could probably be the first step in the right, IMO, direction. Something like "Embedded image A x B size in layer N" and "External image A x B size in layer N". What do you think? 2. Text case altering commands live in "Effects - Text". Should it probably belong to "Text" menu? As user of applications like Scribus or OpenOffice.org (sorry, Scribus guys :)) I don't perceive those as effects --- this is rather altering of text that its look'n'feel. Same goes for "Replace text..." --- to me it rather belongs to "Edit" or "Text" menu, not speaking about some kind of clash with "Edit - Find...". Comments? :) Alexandre

Connecting to signals
by unknown＠example.com 02 Sep '07

02 Sep '07

I've had some struggle in signals and stuff. I found this in the code: _close_button.signal_clicked() .connect(sigc::mem_fun(*this, &LayerPropertiesDialog::_close)); (dialogs/layer-properties.cpp) Why is this connection not saved? Is that not necessary? It seems to me that this is buggy. When the layer window is deleted, the connection is not disconnected and when the signal is emitted it will call _close with a corrupt "this" value. (this will never happen probably because the button is on the dialog itself, but still) Thanks for some light on this, Johan P.S. Why is there a function signal_clicked() to get the signal? In my code I just make the sigc::signal public (see /ui/widget/random.h). Is that bad?

It appears that as of tonight the build is broken due to a missing dependency. The update to the 2geom code brought in a dependance on gsl. If someone could look into that and then update configure.ac with a check for the needed version, that would be helpful. Just FYI, on a Mac here I have version 1.8.

Changing layer opacity affects other layers
by microUgly 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

I'm creating a set of amimated cursors which involves exporting each frame from Inkscape. One of the animations involves reducing the opacity of a number of layers for each frame. I'm finding when I change the opacity of one layer then select another layer this layers opacity will also change. Quite frustrating as I've exported the frames for an animation 5 times now and each time I've found there's been a mistake with opacity on a layer :) I'm not sure if the problem is related to the amount of time Inkscape takes to redraw the image after changing opacity - I think if I select the next layer before the redraw is finished the setting is carried across. I've used blur so the redraw can be a little slow. I'm currently experiancing this in the dev build but I was having the same issue on another PC where I think I was running 0.45 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Changing-layer-opacity-affects-other-layers-tf4339104… Sent from the Inkscape - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Odd size of imported bitmaps
by Dan H. 31 Aug '07

31 Aug '07

Hello, I've imported a 400x400 pixel TIFF image into an inkscape drawing, and it comes out as 112.89 x 112.89 mm, which translates to a resolution of roughly 90 dpi. Where does this number come from? Shouldn't inkscape honour the dpi information that is embedded in the TIFF image? Alternatively, for images that don't have a "built-in" resolution, inkscape should ask for a "native" size of the image or use a changeable default resolution. Also I noticed that some imported images have width and height xml attributes while others don't. All this came to my attention when I worked with a SVG file with 20 imported images of about 10MB each (TIFF uncompressed) which bogged down my computer. I tried substitutung the TIFFs with scaled-down (by .25) working copies, which worked fine for those images that had width and height attributes (the others came out a fourth of the size), I'm just wondering how Inkscape arrives at the "native" size of an image, and I wanted to know if others agreed with my notion that in a vector drawing program the resolution of imported bitmaps was of high importance. It would also be nice if Inkscape could somehow reload image properties if the original bitmap had changed (by scaling or cropping, for instance). Thanks, --Dan

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Curve Stitching first steps
by unknown＠example.com 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hey Josh, (CC to devel) The pentool bug is a good one :), yep I only thought of using the node tool for editting paths doh! Stacking is definitely planned. But... at this moment it will not help you a lot. The problem is that the path-along-path effect has its inputs switched around: path-along-path: svgd input = path to put something along (can only be one path, probably cannot contain gaps or anything) parameter input = path to put along the other path The stacking will work like this (because this is simple to implement [1]): output of one effect goes to the *svgd input* of the next one. As you can see, this will not function as desired for stacking curve stitching and path-along-path. "So why is path-along-path made this way? It is also not handy for applying it to groups!" The problem now is that only the svgd input can be editted on-canvas. The parameter paths cannot. So imagine having that fish bend along a curve, and then not being able to nicely edit that curve :S On-canvas editting of path parameters has very high priority on my list, but it is not so easy. This curve stitching thing was really easy to implement (just look at the code), and it seemed fun :-) Cheers! Johan [1] probably I should also add a method to pass the result of an effect as path parameter; it will start looking like the whole filter thing then. Perhaps it is better to make the SVG2 vector effects first. ________________________________ From: Josh Andler [mailto:scislac@...400...] Sent: donderdag 30 augustus 2007 2:57 To: Engelen, J.B.C.

See the mailmessage below from the translator list. const EnumData<NR::FilterPrimitiveType> FPData[NR::NR_FILTER_ENDPRIMITIVETYPE] = { {NR::NR_FILTER_BLEND, _("Blend"), "svg:feBlend"}, ... }; Does this kind of C++ initialization work for translations?

They will probably discard my request anyway, since Inkscape is already there, but it would be nice to know: - who subscripted as Apple Developers under the name "Inkscape developers" and hence posted Inkscape for the first time? - could this person update the information on the site. I can provide the information I wrote (taken from the front page an release notes), so it'll just be copy-paste, and here is my screenshot: http://jo.irisson.free.fr/dropbox/inkscape/inkscape.png Cheers, JiHO --- http://jo.irisson.free.fr/

Gradients.

Hi, I wonder why gradients in inkscape doesn't look smooth. When I look on them I see that they compose from regular lines. Can't gradients look so smooth like in photoshop or gimp ? --- Kind regards. Kobi.

I suspect that this is a bleeding edge problem, because the OCAL dialogs are under active development. Hopefully these problems will be resolved within a day or two (although you may be unlucky and run into some new ones - there's maybe 25% chance of that). Welcome to inkscape!
