Please change the subject line if appropriate.
by Alan Horkan 08 Feb '04

08 Feb '04

Rather than ask anyone person directly I would like to politely request that people try to change the subject line a little more often. I'm finding it extremely confusing to try and follow all these different threads with the same subject lines. (It would probably be easier if did something to break up the list digest and got my mailer to thread everthing nicely but I would still very much appreciate it). Thanks in advance. Replies offlist please if necessary. - Alan PS I first wrote this message Feb 8 but didn't send it as I was hoping that if I concentrated really hard it my just happen due to my physic powers but it seems they have failed me.

Inkscape Feature Freeze
by Bryce Harrington 07 Feb '04

07 Feb '04

At this time we are temporarily closing the codebase to new features or other significant codebase changes until we are ready to cut the release branch. Until that time, please focus on bug fixing, testing, and packaging/documentation enhancements. Code cleanup work, including removal of the 'if 0' code, conversion of tabs to spaces, cleaning up compiler warnings, etc. should either be postponed or completed soon and with great care and testing. In general I would encourage everyone to set aside feature development or code cleanup work to focus on testing the application and fixing critical bugs. The sooner we can work through this process, the sooner we can have the release completed and be back to regular development. :-) If instead you'd like to continue with development or code cleanup, please do your work on a branch and plan to merge it subsequent to the release. Thanks, Bryce

The rest look less like release blockers, or are too hard to fix at this time. Also there's a nasty bug 891852, but that one I'll try to fix myself today. _________________________________________________________________ Protect your PC - get McAfee.com VirusScan Online http://clinic.mcafee.com/clinic/ibuy/campaign.asp?cid=3963

prerelease
by MenTaLguY 07 Feb '04

07 Feb '04

Since some folks seem worried about us being "scooped" by the upcoming Sodipodi release... How would you all feel about doing an Inkscape prerelease -- that is, take a known-good CVS snapshot this weekend, make a dist tarball from it, call it .. 0.37-rc1, and put it on the site with something like the usual announcement and release notes. As it's a prerelease, we won't need to worry about filing (all) the rough edges off or packaging for other distros, but we'll still have put our stake in the sand. Maybe that way we could focus better on getting the final release out quickly, without feeling so much pressure to rush. -mental

Thanks for the icon shift report, I'll have to change that because font alignment across systems is obviously unreliable. As for shorts, I wanted to post them on the site. Your Windows shots are even better for that, because they will show off both the tutorial and the windows port. So please send a couple screens showing the entire window with all tools and decorations, with perhaps the first "page" of the tutorial and then with some nice graphics down below. I will then put them on the site (or if you have CVS access you can do this yourself, see http://inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?WebsiteEditing) >https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=859364&group_id=9… >I do not get this bug on my machine.

I think I have since fixed that mysterious bug. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=dept/bcomm&pgmarket=en-ca&RU=http%3a%2f%2fjoin.ms…

about screen
by Jonathan Phillips 07 Feb '04

I think something I will do is adapt the nice graphical ledger at the bottom/top of the TUTORIAL for our about window tomorrow. Good job BULIA/NJH and others on that! Jon -- Jonathan Phillips <jon@...15...>

text undo bug
by MenTaLguY 07 Feb '04

07 Feb '04

Bulia, you were right. Not only was the bug in the undo code, it was in the Repr transaction logging stuff. The problem was that, on reversion of the log, content change events were pulling from the wrong union member, and erroneously "reverting" to the "after" state rather than the proper "before" state. Fixed in CVS. -mental

I may be misunderstanding you. What you say may be correct, but it does not apply to this bug as far as I can tell. What needs to be logged here is nothing but a repr change, namely a change in the content of the text node inside tspan. This is what is broken. The fact that undo does not know about cursor movements is irrelevant - it must simply restore the previous content of the node, and that's what it cannot do properly. The fact that the behavior is the same no matter whether you edit the text node by the text tool or directly in the XML editor proves that the text tool is not the problem, the problem is inside the undo system. >I do have a rough sketch in my mind for a new undo abstraction -- >basically a generic undo stack and a 'log entry' base class that variuos >subsystems can subclass for undoing/redoing specific things. > >We could even use it for the next/prev zoom feature (i.e. use one of >these generic undo stacks for document editing history, and another for >zoom history). It's very nice, but currently I'm concerned about this particular bug. I think it must be fixed before the release, because it's pretty annoying. Sometimes (I couldn't figure exactly when) editing text even breaks undo completely, i.e. I get "operation did not complete transaction" and cannot undo any more. _________________________________________________________________ Tired of spam?
