path not finishing where selected
by Robert Crosbie 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

I found this oddity while playing with inkscape tonight: Draw path AB and end it by pressing enter Press 'a' to add nodes Draw path from node B to new node C then back to B and press enter What you end up with is a path ABCA (triangle shape) instead of ABCB. You actually see the path jump from B to A when you finish it. This was from CVS checked out about 10:00 EST.

Peter, we appreciate your cleanup and refactoring work, but could you please hold it on until after the release? We're now in feature freeze, and _only_ bugfixes, preferably low-impact and preferably only for user-visible bugs, are supposed to go into the CVS at this point. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?

translation special-cases
by Kees Cook 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Bryce and I were talking today, and I mentioned all the fun I had reading the "gettext" documentation on the various "special cases" that need attention when coding. He asked me to send in the sections I had noticed, just in case other folks hadn't seen these: Formatting with re-ordered printf-style elements http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_mono/gettext.html#SEC18 Plural forms beyond just english "one" and "more than one" http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_mono/gettext.html#SEC150 GUI menu contexts http://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_mono/gettext.html#SEC151 Since I'm the average one-language-speaking American, I found these three sections very enlightening. They are all probably pretty obvious to anyone trilingual in Polish, German, and English, though. ;) -- Kees Cook @outflux.net

Hi, I can see it now: the following files are not present in po/POTFILES.in: src/widgets/sp-color-wheel-selector.cpp src/dialogs/filedialog.cpp So if these get included in the file, we do not have to hack by hand.

True, but sp-color-wheel-selector has static const gchar* nameset[] = {N_("Wheel"), 0}; My understanding is that N_() prevents the string from being translated on the spot but sill pulls it out into .po.

Another note on localization
by Arpad Biro 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

Hi, Another note to translators/Bulia: It seems the following 2 strings (used when opening or saving a document) are not extracted automatically from the sources: "Append filename extension automatically" "File type:" This means that for the time being, we have to append the appropriate msgid/msgstr pairs to the PO file (this will make them localized).

Localization of color selector strings
by Arpad Biro 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

Hi, A note to translators/Bulia: It seems the official PO files do not contain the string "Wheel". This means that if you want the color selector tab title "Wheel" (in the "Fill & Stroke" dialog) to appear in your local language, you (as a translator) will have to append the following string pair to your PO file by hand: msgid "Wheel" msgstr "translation_of_Wheel_in_your_language" (this hack is currently needed because src/widgets/sp-color-notebook.cpp internationalizes a _variable_: tab_label = gtk_label_new(_(str)); ) Arpad Biro __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

bug: Inkscape opens files in a new instance, the first instance leaves itself useless
by Artemio 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

Hello everybody! Sorry, sourceforge gives me "forum not found" when I try to go to "inkscape-tracker" list. I know this happens sometimes, but here's a little bug anyway. When you launch Inkscape, and, right away, use the "file->open" dialogue to open an existing SVG file, Inkscape opens another instance of itself and shows this file in there. This makes the first instance useless, you can't use it to open a file in it (you can use it to start drawing a new one). So, instead of opening a new window, Inkscape should open the given SVG in it's very first instance. Apologees if this has already been fixed.

Hi, "Extension to save document (%s) was not found." (file.cpp) What kind of extension does this mean? As in "Quark extension", or "file extension"?

Two features I would like
by Carl Hetherington 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

Hi, There's a couple of things that would take inkscape from the "interesting" to "useful" stage for me ;-) 1. Arrow heads. It looks like some work has been done on these. Anyone know the current state of play? In a previous message, Bryce discussed how they can be implemented with SVG markers; the message seemed to imply that the rendering support is already there. 2. Export to EPS. For my purposes, this would just have to get paths, text (though not necessarily font information) and fills right. Would there be any objections to a patch for this? Thanks Carl

exporting page background needed!!
by David Christian Berg 02 Apr '04

02 Apr '04

I'm kinda angry, cause I messed up 150 A3 color laser prints, 'cause inkscape does not give you the option of not using transparency while exporting. Point is, I made a plakat for a party at my university and when converting a png with transparency to cmyk, the transparency is lost and it's the color as solid. Since I only made the png and was not there when printing I didn't notice that I forgot to put a white rectangle in the background. You see, I actually had encountered about the problem before, but had just forgotten to draw that rect, cause you don't notice the difference in inkscape and don't always think about that kinda crap. It cannot be that hard to make a check box in the export dialog, that allows you to reduce the image without transparency. Gonna file a bug on this. Hope it'll be in 0.38. David

Besides, yesterday I finished adding _() to many strings which were not gettextized before, so these are all now in .po and need to be translated. We also have lots of new strings added since 0.37. And if anyone is working on translating tutorials, it would be nice to have some before the release too. To hook up your translated tutorial, you just need to "translate" the corresponding filename in your language's po file, for example: #: src/interface.cpp:684 msgid "tutorial-basic.svg" msgstr "tutorial-basic.ru.svg" and submit the file tutorial-basic.ru.svg with your tutorial translation. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Premium: Up to 11 personalized e-mail addresses and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht…

The current setup with "save as" seems a bit >clunky and I think is confusing to people coming to Inkscape for the first >time. This is such a basic area that it should work easily and intuitively. Please be more detailed. With the recent changes in this area, and with the differences between linux/windows, it's difficult to understand what you are referring to. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your messages with MSN Premium.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] win32 save as problem

>Are we on the same wavelength? Inkscape has been auto adding extension svg >for ages. For example in build 29 March. It certainly did not do that on Linux until today. So this should have been a Windows-only artefact :) Anyway, the newly added functionality (controlled by checkbox) is the preferred way to do it because it can be disabled, and that preference is saved. If a Windows build does not have the checkbox or does not obey it, please file a bug and/or contact Ted Gould who authored this. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the MSN Premium and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht…
