inkjar default?
by Kees Cook 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Is there a reason why "inkjar" is not built by default? I looked through the archives, and it wasn't mentioned. Also, there do not appear to be any excessive dependencies for compiling it (zlib isn't a "strange" dependency, IMHO). Just curious! -- Kees Cook @outflux.net

unified XML and layers dialog?
by MenTaLguY 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Once we've got this bug-fixing release out the door, I'm planning on putting more work into user-visible changes again. One of the ones that we've been slated for since the fork was a layers dialog. I've been thinking -- would it make sense to combine the layers and XML dialogs (maybe have them be on different tabs)? It seems to me that there's not much need to have them both displayed at once, so it might make sense to reduce the amount of screen real estate required by combining them. Obviously this would require that the XML dialog could be made smaller, though -- perhaps make the right hand side collapsable? What are your thoughts? -mental

Locale question, was: Re: Spanish translation
by Lucas Vieites 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Hi, Daniel Díaz and I (Lucas Vieites) are discussing the spanish translation and we are thinking about having separate translations for "Spain spanish" (es_ES) and "mexican spanish" (es_MX). Is this a mayor issue, or just uploading two files: "es_ES.po" and "es_MX.po" would solve it? NOTE: this is also an invitation for other translators to have their own country-specific translations (es_AR, es_VE, etc). And now for something completely different...

Naming gradients
by Arpad Biro 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Hi, Not a big deal, but all gradients, including radial ones, are named "linearGradient" when they are created. Arpad Biro __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Small Business $15K Web Design Giveaway http://promotions.yahoo.com/design_giveaway/

Calligraphy Pen
by Jason Dusek 03 Apr '04

03 Apr '04

Hi Everyone, I'm interested in adding another calligraphy tool. I'm a calligrapher by way of a hobby, and I think it'd be fun to make a tool that behaved more like a broad-edged pen. What parts of the code do I need to copy and edit so as to make my new pen? And what parts of the code control how I will interface with my new pen tool? (i.e. how do I give it an icon and a button?) -- --~:~\\ Jason Dusek \\~:~://|||//|||| ---~:~\\ The Hydra Project \\~:~://|||//||| ----~:~\\ The University of Iowa \\~:~://|||//|| ----

Thanks! I edited it a bit, see attached. In general, please try to be less formal when translating, express the thought freely, just as you would when talking to a friend. And don't use "Vy" with a capital :) >Updated translation of ru.po will be soon. OK, I'll commit the tutorial and the new translation together. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your messages with MSN Premium.

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
