0.43 branch created
by Peter Moulder 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Remaining serious bugs: - Some inkboard crashes, one of which may indicate a security issue. Inkboard isn't enabled by default, so I suggest we merely mention these in the release notes but not let them hold up the release. - Various Windows issues. I'll let someone else comment on whether any of these should hold up the release. - Connector crashes. One of these (out-of-date bboxes) may require significant change to fix properly. For the release, I suggest just changing it from a crash to a misbehaviour bug (choose an arbitrary point if !in_svg_plane(p); #include "libnr/in-svg-plane.h"). It's good to test in_svg_plane(p) before updating reprs even in absence of a crash, because inf and NaN can't be expressed in SVG. I haven't yet changed anything in the newly-created branch like changing version numbers. See http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?CreatingDists for a list of things to change now that the branch has been created. Release notes seem OK from a brief scan. There's an entry there marked `pjrm' which I'm just addressing now. Still need to transcribe to NEWS, but this can wait until ReleaseNotes (http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes) is quiescent. Bulia notes: 1 Ask everyone on jabber to read http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes, copyedit, fill what is missing, spell-check. 2 Do elinks -dump -no-numbering -no-references http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes > NEWS or in any other way convert it to plain text in the NEWS file. 3 Commit NEWS to CVS. Screenshots: I'm not up-to-date on this yet. There has been some progress reported over the last couple of days, but I don't know where we stand. Updated tutorials: Patch tracker items still open in places where HTML hasn't been put in inkscape_web/. One of the open patch tracker items is where we're waiting on the source XML file for an SVG version. (For the moment I haven't even put the generated SVG file into CVS, in case the XML file is changed in the meantime, but we could use the given SVG version if we don't get the XML file soon.) pjrm.

On screenshots
by bulia byak 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

The scarcity of screenshot submissions is an alarming sign. Inkscape must be (1) fun to use and (2) fit to do professional work. If it is, users will be motivated to show off their Inkscape fun and/or their professional Inkscape work. If we don't get enough submissions, this might mean we are failing at (1) and/or (2). For a user, screenshots are perhaps the most important resource at inkscape.org. It's what most people look at first. New users don't like to read descriptions; they want pretty pictures. Existing users considering upgrade don't like to read release notes; they want pretty pictures. Besides, our screenshots are borrowed by a lot of other sites and thus end up all over the web. All this means that screenshots must be as good as Inkscape itself, if not better. The lack or poor quality of screenshots means the entire project's bad health. A few notes: * The best screenshots are made by the author of the corresponding feature. Nobody knows the feature better than him. In fact, if you contribute a major feature, you are pretty much supposed to submit a screenshot of it in action, much as you are supposed to describe it in release notes. * However, we also in badly need of high quality screenshots showing professional Inkscape work. If you are doing something complex and/or artistic and it turns out well, please take a moment to shoot the Inkscape window with your work. * The screenshot should be dense and informative. 1280x1024 (the preferred screenshot size) is a lot of space, so don't waste it on just one or two bits. When doing a feature screenshot, combine the various aspects of the feature, add captions and descriptions, demonstrate all relevant tricks and nontrivial things that you can think of. When doing a work screenshot, find the best zoom/view of the document, and consider doing a double view of the same or different documents (as here: [http://inkscape.org/screenshots/gallery/inkscape-0.41-CVS-linux-davinci.png]). In both cases, open the relevant dialogs, switch to relevant tools, and do a selection so that the statusbar message adds more useful info to the picture. * When submitting a screenshot, please also submit a blurb that will accompany it in the gallery. Briefly describe the feature you are demonstrating and the most nontrivial aspects of the screenshot. Try to be witty but comprehensive. All of the above also applies to the head graphic on the new site design. I also vote for #5, and I like the idea of the head graphic being a rotated image (at least once per release). We'll need to make an SVG template for this image and elicit submissions of impressive graphics to be put into the template, probably in a cut-out/zoom-in/composite form (similar to the way the flag is displayed in the draft). I'm willing to do this at first, but I need your help. So this is a call to all Inkscape artists: please send me your work that you would like to see used on the front page of inkscape.org. I also created a wiki page with the above: http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MakingScreenshots -- bulia byak Inkscape. Draw Freely. http://www.inkscape.org

kids "coloring book" function
by Ruud Steltenpool 09 Nov '05

09 Nov '05

Hello Inkscape developers, As i'm always looking for opportunities to spread SVG i think i found a pretty good one that Inkscape can help take advantage of This got me the idea: Within the *.pagina.nl framework that has millions of visitors a day, http://kleurplaat.pagina.nl gets so many visitors that nr1 sex.pagina.nl doesn't even manage to quadruple it. "kleurplaat" is a drawing of black lines that is meant to be filled in by using coloring pencils. A whole stack of them combined in a book, being called a "coloring book" in english i was told. The idea: Inkscape having a function maybe called "B&W lines" (B&W being black&white), or "kids coloring book" or something that turns whatever you have created into just that. It's probably not always straightforward, but i think in many occasions setting the fill to "" and the stroke to "black" will do most of the trick. The bigger idea: If you implement this function into sth. that generally works, it might be a good idea to have openclipart.org offer this special version of every drawing (maybe generated on demand). Hope you like it, Keep up the good work, Ruud http://svg-whiz.com/wiki/index.php?title=Ruud_Steltenpool

inkboard/whiteboard connection issue

Hi, It looks like Inkboard/Whiteboard is quite selective about jabber servers, making Inkscape crash if it doesn't like the server it tries to connect to (please refer to http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1349761&group_id=9…) Is there any precise information on jabberd versions etc. users should be aware of? Should it be mentioned at http://wiki.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?ReleaseNotes ? Alexandre

Hi all, it's first time a write in this list. I'm an italian guy and I use inkscape (also with the gimp and scribus of course) not only for fun but also to do something usefull for my job. For example, I've designed my computer school's sign with IS and I think result is good! Here you can look a screenshot of IS with sign's design: http://www.ipercollege.org/inkscape/progetto.png and here, you can look at final product: http://www.ipercollege.org/inkscape/insegna.jpg Thanks for all guys, I love this software :-) Ciao Danilo Di Moia

The inkscape object and the inkscape_application_init( ) function
by Ben Fowler 07 Nov '05

07 Nov '05

I have been discussing this with Ralf off -list, and it is possible that these issues will be dissolved away when Gtkmmification is finished, but in the mean time, I have a question. Is the inkscape object and the inkscape_application_init( ) which creates it intended to be a Singleton pattern, or a Factory pattern, allowing more than one Inkscape::Application object, perhaps parameterised (or something else)? I might not have brought this up now, but my memory was jogged by the comment at the top of page 2 http://www.thedailywtf.com/forums/48173/ShowPost.aspx (and elsewhere). inkscape_application_init( ) is called in three places, in main.cpp, exactly once at application start-up; by SVGPreview::SVGPreview() when we want to provide a preview of an SVG file in a File->Open dialogue and by ImageIcon::init(), probably for similar reasons. I am assuming that the code is not wrong (the new-gui is intended to run with inkscape being NULL), but I suspect that it need to be better commented documented. If this is worth doing, could some kind soul post a few hints and I will do it Ben

New example files for XML repair service
by jiho 06 Nov '05

06 Nov '05

Some time ago I started a wiki page about a possible XML Repair service to be implemented in Inkscape, following bug reports and a feature request. A key point of this page was to have a lis of "wrong" files. I have posted one file to the invalid files section (=some files that inkscape cannot parse). I also added some files to the weird files section. I seems that many free scientific softwares output eps files which, after beeing converted to svg by pstoedit, behave strangely in inkscape. Vector graphics are very important in scientific work and requested by all scientific journals and it would be great if Inkscpae, being the great vector graphics editor it is, could help produce them. Thanks in advance. -- JiHO --- Windows, c'est un peu comme le beaujolais nouveau : a chaque nouvelle cuvee on sait que ce sera degueulasse, mais on en prend quand meme par masochisme. ---

0.43
by bulia byak 06 Nov '05

06 Nov '05

I'm really concerned that 0.43 seems to be moving so slow. We don't have any real stoppers now, so why the delay? Let's do a pre2 now and aim for the release at the end of the week. What do you think? Release mainatainers (Peter & Jon), if you don't have time to work on that (patches, pre2, final release), please report, so we can work around that. Overall I must say I'm rather disappointed by the performance of the release maintainers this time. Unfortunately I can't now be on Jabber because I'm having Internet connection issues, but I'll do what I can to help push the release. I have about 120Kb of diffs in my local tree and I can't wait to merge them in. This "short release" seems to have consisted mostly of a very long freeze :( Here are the most important outstanding issues: - Several patches in the tracker. If any of these goes in, we need to do another pre with them. If not, we can release right away after pre1. - Several tutorial translations in the tracker (Scislac, will you do this?) - Screenshots: -- Node editing by Scislac: almost there, waiting for a final version with more stuff -- Connector tool by Alexandre Prokoudine: waiting for a combined shot with 2 diagrams and a blurb (if you can't do this, let me know and I'll post what I have) -- Drawings with pressure sensitivity by Popolon - does anyone have contact info for him, as I haven't heard from him since he agreed to do this screenshot (more than a month ago)? -- Anything else? -- bulia byak Inkscape.

Connect two objects with connector tool. 2. Add one or two obejects between two other ones. 3. Select them 4. Switch to Connector tool again 5. Mark these objects as avoidable 6. Switch to Selection tool 7.
