I don't think this approach is going to scale, since it becomes a significant amount of cut-and-paste work as the number of translations increases. Bryce

Hello from Windows land.
by William Swanson 08 Oct '05

08 Oct '05

Hi, When I was browsing the Project Status page on inkscape.org, I noticed the call for Windows developers. I don't have much free time, but I'm willing to contribute a bugfix here and there to my favorite piece of software. I've checked out the CVS, but am still setting things up to compile. Once I get things running, where is a good place to start hacking? Also, assuming I create a patch for some problem, where do I send it? -s_tec __________________________________ Yahoo!

Hello, all! This post from the Spanish user list is saying that perhaps the Mailman messages should be in Spanish too, given that is the nature of the mailing list. Someone with admin rights on the lists might be able to change that. Greetings!

Hi! Sorry for my offtopic question, but there was a thread (at this mailing list) about bugzilla, and I hope, somebody can me help;) How can I list all bug by a given component? I can use only search, but I dont want to specify any keyword. So I want to list all the bugs what is reported to ubuntu>xserver-xorg-driver-nv (avoid duplicate bugreport). Sorry again for my offtopic. Khiraly

compile error on os x 10.4.2
by jiho 07 Oct '05

07 Oct '05

Hi, I have a linking error on mac os X with latest CVS (checked this 3 hours ago) and I think I have all dependencies right (because it worked last time with these packages = two weeks ago, when I compiled inkscape). But since I have changed system and now I use 10.4.2 with latest developer tools and fink up to date.

Now we changed that, so that it is sent to this list. I thought that everytime a update affecting the translations is made, the one who did it should use the webform to tell the translators to update that. Webmasters should be encouraged to filter webform messages to a special folder, maybe. But you can never expect that all translations will be up-to date within 24h. On many pages, there will be english messages if no translation is available (e.g. screenshots, news, status) As i am pretty new, i don't know how the changes to download.php look like. If there are mostly updates to links, then i'd suggest to place them in variables in download.php and <?php echo $lnk_release ?> in the include files. caliga

Generating improved EPS/PDFs for transparent bitmaps before PS/PDF supports transparency
by Tom Epperly 06 Oct '05

06 Oct '05

I wonder if you've considered an interim solution to generating better EPS files and PDFs for Inkscape drawings with transparent bitmaps. I would like to run and idea past you. I am unfamiliar with Inkscape from a developers perspective, so it may be worthless. In case it's not, here goes. If we exclude bitmaps which are rotated or skewed, it seems that one could use Inkscape's SVG -> bitmap capability (demonstrated by the PNG export) to resolve the transparency and generate a resolved bitmap that could be used instead of the original tranparent bitmap when producing the EPS/PDF. If a transparent bitmap covers the rectangle defined by its corners (x1, y1) to (x2,y2), you can calculate the dots per inch of the in the x and y dimension taking into account any scaling applied by the user. Use Inkscape to render a bitmap of the rectangle (x1,y1) to (x2, y2) at the maximum of resolution (perhaps min {300, max {x_resolution, y_resolution}}). Use this bitmap instead of the orignal when creating the PDF. Of course, this idea can be improved upon. For example during the bitmap rendering phase, it would be better to render only the bitmap and elements below it (i.e., things that could actually appear in the transparent parts of the bitmap and not things above). If SVG's bitmap renderer can have different x and y resolutions, match the original bitmaps x and y resolutions. Alternatively, you could render the bitmap at a higher resolution to make sure the background elements that show through the transparent parts appear smooth at reasonable printing resolutions. I suppose you could even handle scaled, rotated and skewed bitmaps by rendering at high resolution a box that includes the whole scaled, rotated and/or skewed bitmap. Then take the resolved bitmap and undo the scale, skew and/or rotation to generate an unperturbed bitmap that when scaled, rotated and/or skewed will produce the contents that the renderer produced. I am guessing that in 90% of the situations, bitmaps aren't rotated or skewed, so it may not be worth solving the general problem. Well, what do you think? I recently made a poster with a radial gradient as the background and several logos (tranparent bitmaps) were on top of the gradient. I ended up exporting as a high resolution PNG, converting to TIFF and then converting TIFF2PDF. Inkscape looks like a fine program. Tom

Paper on testing and open source
by Bryce Harrington 05 Oct '05

05 Oct '05

Hi all, Next week I'm going to be presenting at the Pacific Northwest Software Quality Conference regarding combining traditional and open source practices for software testing. The paper focuses mainly on my involvement with the NFSv4 testing community, but it tries to identify some general principles that may be of use in other testing efforts as well. http://developer.osdl.org/bryce/papers/nfsv4_pnsqc.pdf Bryce

Patch for WWW::SourceForge mailing list stats
by Bryce Harrington 05 Oct '05

05 Oct '05

Hi again Kang-min, The enclosed patches add a feature to your WWW::SourceForge module to allow display of mailing list statistics. This allows for example: $ ./sfnet --list-mailinglists stp List Members Posts stp-announce 4 11 stp-devel 13 2628 stp-support 9 130 stp-tests 9 96 $ ./sfnet --list-mailinglists inkscape List Members Posts inkscape-announce 284 28 inkscape-cvs 13 14252 inkscape-devel 213 13006 inkscape-tester 31 114 inkscape-tracker 11 8604 inkscape-user 310 3802 inkscape-user-es 37 59 inkscape-wiki 16 164 I noticed that SourceForge.net recently changed their HTML format slightly. They've added some whitespace here and there, and so forth. I modified the main regexp in WWW::SourceForge::Project to be able to deal with this change, but there's probably more discrepencies that you might want to investigate. Also, I noticed when running your test suite that it gives a couple warnings on lines 62 and 66 about uninitialized values. Not sure what's causing that. Oh, and regarding the downloading of files from SF, thanks for the advice, you're right, and I'm re-thinking the approach for that. I may be able to do it directly to a mirror, without any need for screenscraping, which would be superior for obvious reasons. Bryce

FOP (SVG2PDF)

This looks like it might be interesting: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/ Sounds like it's able to take input from SVG and produce PDF. If anyone's interested in svg2pdf, this might be worth experimenting with to see if it's any good. It's available under the Apache license. Bryce

But when he prints over the network there comes an Runtime error: 10H in Modul msvcrt.Dll bei 0197:7820ea8f So printing for him is not possible. He asks whether it is possible to store in a format like *.DXF *.Hpg or *.plt. He has a pantograph milling machine that can read those formats best. Then he posts a RFE Inkscape should also StarOffice compatible file format. so far Thomas. -----Original Message----- From: inkscape-devel-admin(a)lists.sourceforge.net on behalf of thomas Sent: Tue 10/4/2005 17:12 To: Inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Inkscape-devel] Inkscape und Drucken Ich habe mir das Programm auf meinem Rechner gespielt, weil das was ich gelesen (im internet) habe sich gut anhörte für mich.

--new-canvas?
by Ralf Stephan 04 Oct '05

04 Oct '05

Hello, regarding C++ification, I've reached a point with Desktop where the class would be suited for inclusion in a Gtkmm environment, were it not for its dependency on SPCanvas etc We have now three possibilities: 1. forget about Desktop, incrementally improve the code in UI::View::Edit, first by separating Edit into Edit/EditWidget. After that, steal from Desktop what's needed. 2. Separate EditWidget from Edit. Discard rest. Rename Desktop to Edit. 3. Before worrying about 1/2, implement Gtkmm canvas under Desktop, enabling it via --new-canvas for testing. After that, goto 2. I have questions for those in the know: Is it technically possible to have everything as is, plus only a Gtkmm canvas? If so, would you prefer having a Gtkmm canvas tested first, instead of the Gtkmm UI? I have made a branch CXXIFICATION_VIEW_AND_WIDGET for work until now. As the next steps might not fit this description, should I create a second one GTKMM_CANVAS and merge them back later separately? (This appears cleaner to me.) ralf

0.44 goals? (was Re: New Inkscape Goals?)
by Bryce Harrington 03 Oct '05

03 Oct '05

I'm working on getting the roadmap up to date for us. Assuming that we shoot for the usual 2-3 month development cycle for 0.44, what things are people hoping to focus on working on? Three features that have come up repeatedly in this thread are interapplication cut/paste, layer dialog, and ps/eps/pdf import support. Is anyone interested in working on one of those features for 0.44? If we could get progress made on one or two of those features for the next release I think it would make a good achievement. Bryce

Libre Graphics Meeting

Hi all, A few weeks back, I sent a call to arms for a conference I'm organising with David Odin in Lyon next March. Since then, a lot's happened - we've confirmed the dates and location - CPE Lyon, the 17/18/19 March 2006. And we've started assembling a line-up. The main purpose of the conference is to get the developers of different projects in the same place, and talking. The other main purpose of the conference is to have the developers of those projects meet their users (and vice versa), and in general to chill out, maybe get some work done, and have a good time. Jon Phillips will be giving a talk on Inkscape, OpenClipart and creative commons, someone from Blender will be coming to present Project Orange (I hope), and there will also be presentations of Scribus from mrdocs and MrB, and the GIMP, although I don't know by whom yet. The current plan is to have 2 very light days of presentations on Friday and Saturday, and to consecrate Sunday completely to impromptu BOFs, hackfests, demos, brainstorming sessions, whatever happens. Should be fun, and I'd really like to see a good showing for Inkscape. Can people interested in attending please add their names to teh GIMP wiki at http://wiki.gimp.org/gimp/LibreGraphicsMeeting (we'll have a better site soon). Cheers, Dave. -- Dave Neary bolsh@...85... Lyon, France
