12 Apr '04

Hello! I was going to check out the new icons for toolbars announced a while ago... but here's what I see. Artemio. P.S. Due to a lack of time to read, I unsubscribed from the devel list. So please CC me if you want to tell me something ;-) -- KDEvibes ::: audio environment for KDE ::: http://kdevibes.artemio.net/ [local time 19:55:32 (GMT +3) 12 April 2004] [system uptime 1 hr 59 min]

Hm, I suspect line 27 of "tools-version.sh". I bet BSD's "m4" isn't expecting "--version" and maybe waits for input. What does "m4 --version" do on your system? If it hangs, does m4 --version </dev/null NOT hang? Maybe I can put that fix in if it helps. -- Kees Cook @outflux.net

Updated spanish trans & icon problems
by Lucas Vieites 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

Hi, I haven't been around for the last four days so I was quite surprised when I got to work this morning and saw all the action that has taken place these days. I've updated the spanish translation, which is attached, and I updated my local cvs version to try it out. Compilation went right, but when I ran inkscape all the icons were out of place (screenshot: http://www.asixinformatica.com/archivos/inkscape_icon_rampage.png) on the same image you can see the basic tutorial completely screwed up.

POTFILES.in
by Arpad Biro 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

Hi, It seems the following file should be added to POTFILES.in: src/extension/internal/eps-out.cpp and the following 2 should be removed from that file: src/extension/menu.cpp src/extension/menu.h Of course I will do it if others agree. (Technical details: "../intltool-update --pot" tells us about files that should be removed, and "../intltool-update --maintain" lists files that should be added.)

The Item Properties dialog is really meant to be a debug tool. It will likely be removed when we have all of its functionality is recreated in other places (mostly in the top panel; it's already almost done for shapes). And meanwhile, I don't think its labels need to be translated at all, since they literally match the corresponding sodipodi: atributes. > "Could not create sodipodi-svg-doc factory" It's in the currently-disfunctional bonobo code, and nobody knows what it's supposed to mean. When someone gets interested in bonobo and revives this part, remind him/her to make all user-visible messages comprehensible. > "Role:" > "Arcrole:" > "Title:" See the XLink standard for explanations of these (although, as said above, I don't think we need to translate them). > "Em square" Not sure about "square". It's just the em unit, see CSS for more info. > "Base radius to tip radius ratio" The ratio of the base radius to tip radius in a star. > "gradientUnits" > "gradientSpread" These just need to be reworded. Test them in the Fill&Stroke dialog with a gradient fill and propose short and concise labels that would be straightforward to translate. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Premium includes powerful parental controls and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht…

autogen disaster
by Jason Dusek 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

Hi Everyone, I made some modifications to the Inkscape code and tried to compile it on BSD 4.9 and autogen.sh has been running for more than a day. What is going on here? Is the source from the CVS tree simply uncompilable on BSD? Do I have to do my hacking by twiddling with the port? - - -- \\ // -- --- \\ // --- ---- jason x ---- --- // \\ --- -- // \\ -- - -

rest of the icons
by Jonathan Phillips 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

Thanks to Kees and Bulia (and micelf) and others, we have almost put in place all current menu icons. We need however 3 more. After these are completed, then we can move on to replacing XPM icons in the interface. The following need to be created: File ==== * Open Recent Edit ==== * Paste in Place * Paste Style The menu items that do not need icons because they are getting replaced: Dialogs ======= * Item Properties * Tool Options -- Jon Phillips Graduate Researcher Visual Arts Department PO BOX 948667 LA JOLLA, CA 92037 USA cell.858.361.2811 jon@...235... http://www.rejon.org

Re: [Inkscape-devel] insensitive, xml editor

>But isn't it on the otherhand inconsistent to have an attribute that >can't be set to "false"? And isn't it more like that sodipodi should >change that aswell? We're not planning to do any work on per-object sensitivity, just keep it as it is in Sodi. Instead when we will have layers we will be able to switch sensitivity and visibility per layer, which is much more convenient. When this is done, we'll likely remove the sensitive/insensitive per-object stuff from the UI. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN Premium.

New Markers code
by Bryce Harrington 12 Apr '04

12 Apr '04

I've just committed the patch from John and Carl for improving the markers support. There were a few build issues, but with some kludging the code compiles. It's buggy on my box, though, so is going to need more attention; I figure since there's 4 of us working on it, it'll be easier having the code in CVS than passing around patches. Meanwhile beware that playing with the marker widgets on the stroke style dialog may lead to a crash. But at least this moves us a good step closer to having markers available. Bryce

Translation comments
by Arpad Biro 11 Apr '04

11 Apr '04

Hi, A note to translators: the following string #: src/dialogs/object-attributes.cpp:61 msgid "T0:" is not "to", but "t-zero" (see Spiral Properties). I just recently noticed this, and I personally had to correct my translation. Taking a look at other translations, I suspect at least 4-5 other people made the same mistake - I'm almost sure about the German and French translations being incorrect. Maybe we could also add a comment into the code for translators? If this is possible, then I also have other candidates for adding comments to: "Could not create sodipodi-svg-doc factory" "Role:" "Arcrole:" "Title:" "Em square" "Base radius to tip radius ratio" "gradientUnits" "gradientSpread" (For my personal comments on the above strings, see "po/hu.po".)

ps-export

Where is the fun about ps-export when neither gradients nor imported pngs nor transparency attributes are being exported? Alright, it just that this would be handy for me right now. And speaking of it, ps2pdf always creates A4 documents, as ist seems. Does anybody know how to have it export A3 or any customized format? Or does anybody know another app for it? David

Hi, > Was there some bad documentation or missing directions that we should > update so others can avoid this problem in the future? Actually I have not read any Inkscape-related documentation on this; just automatically used the "pserver" method, since that was what I got accustomed to earlier. Taking a look at the Wiki, I realize you have a very good documentation on using CVS. Arpad Biro __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!

verbs and "help" menu
by Kees Cook 11 Apr '04

I was toying around with making some icons for the "help" menu, only to discover that hooking it up would prove difficult.

Hello all, Well, the wiki for the new open clipart project has been activated. Please spend some time looking over the content, and adding your own. Instructions for getting account access for the wiki are at the URL below. Anyone interested in the project should head on over to the site and get added to the mailing list. http://freedesktop.org/Software/clipart or http://clipart.freedesktop.org/ This project is at an early stage, but the Open Office.org (OO.o) development community and various SVG editor camps are merging together (basically) to create this project. OO.o has 20-30 million users! If you are into this type of project and/or want to get in on the ground floor and help shape the future, then you should jump in now...
