by Bob Jamison 21 Sep '04

21 Sep '04

My server still can't ssh out to get the cvs tree for autobuilds, so I am still doing it manually. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. Here is the build for this morning: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/builds/Inkscape0409211102… I updated the make.* files again. Bob

Try out on windows
by Lucas Vieites 17 Sep '04

17 Sep '04

Hi, I would like to show Inkscape to some people but they only run Windows XP. Which Windows build should I use? Does the Inkscape-0.39-1.win32.exe on sourceforge work well? I mean, I wouldn't like it to crash while I'm showing off, he he ;-) Thanks -- Lucas Vieites Fariña Dept.

Minor upgrade to autotracing
by Bob Jamison 17 Sep '04

17 Sep '04

A few weeks ago, at the suggestion of one of our fine users, I added a Potrace image-to-vector tracing engine to Inkscape. Initially, it just traced the image according to a hardcoded brightness threshold. Later I added a threshold adjustment. Today, there is a new toy, "Canny Edge Detection", also sometimes called "optimal edge detection." This should help with the tracing of more subtly colored images, and not just by simple brightness. Check it out: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/potrace.png Play with it, break it, etc. Have fun. BTW: Here is the kind of image that 'pov-out' export can make. Our lovely logo, Simpson's-3D style: http://troi.hous.es3.titan.com/~rjamison/inkscape/files/ispov.png Bob

I also submitted a new Freshmeat announcement of it that should be going up soon. https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=93438&package_id=130… This is version 0.1 of mod_rsvg that tvon (Tom von Schwerdtner) gave me in 2003. It works with Apache 1.3. I don't plan on maintaining it, but if anyone wishes to submit patches, can roll new releases of it. Bryce

Inkscape helping OpenClipArt.org
by Alan Horkan 16 Sep '04

16 Sep '04

I noticed that we don't have anything to tell Inkscape users that they can get more patterns from the openclipart.org site. Long term there is great potential for collaboration in all sorts of different ways, but I have a simple idea to start with: Presumably Inkscape will ship with at least a few templates, perhaps five small sample gradients, and five small sample patterns. Here is where helping OpenClipArt.org bit comes in - why not just put in a pattern that points people there? It'd be easy to set up, and non-intrusive since only users already looking at the patterns would see it. http://matrix.netsoc.tcd.ie/~horkana/dev/jasc/webdraw/openclipart.org-adver… The whole pattern is a link to http://www.openclipart.org/ Please let me know what you think, I really hope you will accept this suggestion. And thanks Bryce for your help (he knows why, say no more). Sincerely Alan Horkan http://advogato.org/person/AlanHorkan/ Inkscape, Draw Freely http://inkscape.org Free SVG Clip Art http://OpenClipArt.org

NEW: "transform with object" toggle buttons
by bulia byak 16 Sep '04

16 Sep '04

* The preferences that control scaling of stroke widths and rectangle corners, as well as transforming gradient and pattern fills with the object, are now represented by four toggle buttons in the selector's controls panel for easy access. * Gradients no longer behave weird when a path with gradient fill is transformed. Now gradients either transform with the object or remain unmoved, depending on the user setting (toggle button in selector controls). This setting affects grouped objects too.
