Sometimes I just >need a part of my inkscape drawing, then I like it, that the image isn't >resized. Sometimes I like it that inkscape keeps my working area just >scaled down and I have a overview about the image. I still don't see why you need to have to switch between the modes often. Can you describe a single sequence of actions during which you need to have it both ways? That's apart from the fact that, unlike Sodipodi, Inkscape does not bury its dialogs under the document window (and has less dialogs overall) and therefore requires much less moving around and resizing of the document window. In the majority of cases, the Inkscape window is just always maximized, with some dialogs floating at the fringe. If you want to have two programs on screen, let each one just take hald of your screen. There are many ways to zoom and scroll (middle button, keys, etc.) that are much more convenient IMHO than relying on autozoom when you resize the window. Or rather, I can understand why you may want to have it always zoom on resize - this behavior may be liked by some people and not others, hence the global switch. But switching this back and forth during work is something I don't understand. >Thats right, then put it at the same position where sodipodi has it, >direct above the right scrollbar. The ruler isn't needed there. OK, I don't want to seem stubborn, and that place is indeed unused, so I put it there. The global setting is now used to set the initial state of the button when the window is created, so those who prefer this to always be one way or the other will be still able to set the global preference once and forget about it. And note that the button will disappear if you hide the scrollbars (I always hide them, they're just clutter given all the other ways to scroll). But I'm still not convinced :) _________________________________________________________________ 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…

RE: [Inkscape-devel] My first marker
by bulia byak 28 May '04

Thanks, it's a nice marker to have, so I added it to our markers.svg. Just one note: when creating markers, try to optimize your shapes because they will be potentially reused by many documents. Using Simplify and some manual tweaking, I reduced the size of your marker in half, by removing unnecessary nodes. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Premium with Virus Guard and Firewall* from McAfee� Security : 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?pgmarket=en-ca&page=byoa/prem&xAPID=1994&DI=1034&SU=ht…

by Bryce Harrington 28 May '04

28 May '04

We tried installing the Inkscape snapshot from 5/26 on a SuSE 9.x system but when running make ran into an error that the is_fullscreen method was missing; we're going to try again tomorrow - is this fixed in current cvs? Bryce

Re: [Inkscape-devel] rect improvements
by bulia byak 28 May '04

>1: Create two equal squares >2: round the cornern, so that you get a circle >3: Scale one of the squares horizontal and the other one vertically Just tried this: - when I scale by selector, I get two ellipses - when I "scale" by the bottom right handle in rect tool, I get two rects with circular ends In both cases, there's no difference between the shapes (except for direction). So please check again and report in more detail how you managed to get the result you describe. _________________________________________________________________ Free yourself from those irritating pop-up ads with MSn Premium.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Re: [BUG] PostScript saving (Locale issue: 961568)

>Also, I think as a side-effect from the image-in-a-rect work going on, >the PS output no longer seems to include images; but that doesn't seem >to be from my changes, I don't think. Now that is serious. It will be a pity to lose the shaped images capability because of PS being unable to handle pattern fills. We really need a PS expert to do a facelift of our PS export code. Can we get any help from Scribus on that? _________________________________________________________________ Free yourself from those irritating pop-up ads with MSn Premium.

[BUG] PostScript saving (Locale issue: 961568)
by Gustav Broberg 28 May '04

28 May '04

Ok, I think this issue has been discussed before in this list/newsgroup, but I couldn't find any report in the bugtracker. The locale issue with file saving was fixed for the SVG-format, but remains for PostScript. If the locales (LC_...) are set to a language which use comma-sign (',') as decimal-separator, the PostScript file will use them as such. This is wrong -- it shouldn't be localized, but fixed set to dot ('.'). Therefor, setting LC_ALL=C solves the issue temporary. I've added this to the bugtracker, item 961568. Tried version: snapshot 20040526 / Gustav excuse my poor english..
