Since icons.svg was created long ago, it doesn't show that. More granular style management will be possible when we have AST (a new internal representation for XML and CSS) that's being worked on. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your messages with MSN 8.

Mozilla SVG support info

I saw this posted on /. http://www.mozilla.org/events/dev-day-feb-2004/mozilla-futures/title.html Use the <-- and --> keys to navigate. It would be absolutely wonderful if Mozilla supported SVG by default. Bob

I've been trying to get us on w3.org, but look at one of the responses from their list. I guess we should look at the RFE's some more, but man we have a ton of RFE's!!!

Problem with saved files in system with non UTF-8 locales
by Okhremenko Andrei 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

I use Fedora Core 1 with russian locale ru_RU.koi8r. When I saved file (SaveAs) with russian letters in filename I have some problems. 1. I don't see filename in header of program. 2. When I closed inkscape and start it again I have message /home/oau/.inkscape/preferences.xml either is not valid xml file or you do not have read premissions on it. Although inkscape will run, you are neither able to load nor save preferences. I viewed filename.svg and preferences.xml files and I found what Inkscape write some attributes in tags in koi8r locale, non utf-8. Example filename.svg tag <svg ... sodipodi:docname - koi8r locale sodipodi:docbase - koi8r locale preferences.xml tag <document ... uri - koi8r locale name - koi8r locale It's wrong. Andreo P.S. Sorry my english is so bad.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] DTD
by bulia byak 03 Mar '04

Wait a second. What is the bug here? The namespace URI does not resolve into DTD? It doesn't have to. It must be formally correct URI but it must not necessarily correspond to any page. Besides, only the Sodipodi namespace alludes to a DTD, Inkscape's does not, and we cannot add a DTD to sodipodi.sf.net even if we wanted to. We may eventually provide a schema for the Inkscape/Sodipodi SVG extensions, but it is not top priority now, and it may not be a DTD (there are much more flexible and powerful schema languages than DTD). >From: Jonathan Phillips <jon@...15...> >To: Wendall Cada <wendallc@...248...> >CC: inkscape <inkscape-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net> >Subject: Re: [Inkscape-devel] DTD >Date: Tue, 02 Mar 2004 13:14:42 -0800 > >Cool...could you file it in Inkscape as a bug. > >Jon > > >On Tue, 2004-03-02 at 13:06, Wendall Cada wrote: > > I filed a bug with the Sodipodi project quite some time ago, it can be > > found here: > > > > Date: 2003-11-29 11:29 > > Sender: lauris > > Logged In: YES > > user_id=19294 > > > > No, DTD does not exist, because nobody wants to maintain > > it (and unmaintained DTD is much useless). > > Also, W3C guidelines only say, that xmlns indicator has to > > be valid URL, not really existing document. > > Also, there is 'plain-svg' saving option and --export-svg > > command line option, that should create pure W3C variant. > > So I move this to feature request category from bugs. >-- >Jonathan Phillips <jon@...15...> > > > >------------------------------------------------------- >SF.Net is sponsored by: Speed Start Your Linux Apps Now. >Build and deploy apps & Web services for Linux with >a free DVD software kit from IBM.

DTD
by Wendall Cada 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hello, Accidentally sent a post earlier, the admin can disregard. Anyway, I posted a SR on sf.net some months ago that can be found here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=742081&group_id=4054&atid=… Anyway, I came away with the impression that lauris didn't much care about the spirit of the W3C documentation and interpreted it to the letter whenever convenient. I didn't bother to argue the fact that the DTD does need to exist, and as mhnoyes points out, the DTD provided by W3C could just as easily be used. Date: 2003-11-29 11:29 Sender: lauris Logged In: YES user_id=19294 No, DTD does not exist, because nobody wants to maintain it (and unmaintained DTD is much useless). Also, W3C guidelines only say, that xmlns indicator has to be valid URL, not really existing document. Also, there is 'plain-svg' saving option and --export-svg command line option, that should create pure W3C variant. So I move this to feature request category from bugs. Anyway, I disagree that this is a Feature Request. This is a problem, not a feature I'm looking for. I realize that valid files are created, but the DTD's are part of the process. I and am wondering how this with be addressed with InkScape? Wendall -- "Only the ideas that we really live have any value." --Hermann Hesse (Demian)

tutorials + renaming menu items
by Jonathan Phillips 03 Mar '04

03 Mar '04

Hello, 1.) After we get a couple more tutorials, how hard would it be to make a big Tutorial menu item with the sub-menu arrow to like our normal tutorials, a tutorial on how to create an icon, and lets say a tutorial a tips and tricks tutorial? If we can do this, I'd be interesting in plowing on these. We have a nice template already of what to do (thx to bulia), and we might as well make use of them. I will start these tutorials if someone (bulia?) makes that hierarchical Tutorial menu item with just the standard tutorial in it for now. 2.) NJH mentioned that we should rename the Import... menu item to "Place..." I thoroughly agree as place just places an absolute reference to a PNG file. A true import implies that a file is converted and put into the current document that a user is working on, right? If we agree to this, I'll change it. Jon -- Jonathan Phillips <jon@...15...>
