transient dialogs
by bulia byak 13 Nov '03

13 Nov '03

I've just checked in an updated dialogs/object-properties.c which makes this dialog (ctrl-shift-f) transient. This means it always stays on top of the canvas window (if there are several, it attaches to the one which was current when the dialog was created) and minimizes/maximizes together with it. What can I say? I'm absolutely astonished by how simple it turned out to be, and really baffled by the fact that nobody did it before. It's been in the Sodipodi programming tasks for ages, and it's actually just two lines of code. The difference in usability however is enormous. Judging by the fact that GIMP's interface, despite being almost universally hated, has never attempted to use transient windows (at least in the stable series, I did not try their development series) made me think that this problem is somehow unsolvable on linux - but no. At least, it works for me (on KDE 3.1). Please test the CVS HEAD with this change and report any problems you may have with this dialog (ctrl-shift-f). If there are none, I will make all other dialogs and the toolbar transient too. And by the way, the dialog can now be closed by esc - please test this too, and if there are no problems with that I will change all other dialogs likewise. Misc: I made the zoom field (in the bottom right corner of the canvas) unfocusable, so it never steals focus any more. Now arrows should work reliably. I also changed the treatment of keypad arrows - now they hopefully work both with and without shift (so far only in selector). Please test this and report any problems. If anyone can test this on Windows or Mac that would be great. -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Search Smarter - get the new eXact Search Bar for free! http://www.exactsearchbar.com/

Please review my writeup on transient windows and related issues: http://www.inkscape.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?InkscapeTamed Comments, additions, answers welcome. Several more dialogs are transientized today. More to follow. -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup Search Smarter - get the new eXact Search Bar for free! http://www.exactsearchbar.com/

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Bug: Number type warnings
by Robert Crosbie 12 Nov '03

Similar to my last post, You will loose precision when casting from float to int or NRShort (whatever that is). In desktop-snap.c if all the code is doing is figuring out the slope, then perhaps dx? and dy? should be floats as well. What happens if the slope is less than 0.5? Would we catch it? I don't know what dx and dy are used later for, so maybe it has to be this way. When doing transformations you want to keep numbers as floats for as long as possible and only convert them to ints when they finally need to be plotted to the screen. Otherwise you loose precision and you may find that after a few rotate transformations, your object is not only rotated, it has also shifted position slightly.

Font fix patch
by T Ingham 12 Nov '03

12 Nov '03

This patch is taken from the fink unstable branch. Perhaps someone can evaluate it to see what it's doing? I believe Pogma wrote it. Currently I can't use fonts at all in Inkscape. -thomas

arikkei-token.c:83: `malloc' undeclared

I got this error when trying to build the code this evening. I fixed it by putting an include for stdlib.h in arikkei-token.c. arikkei-token.c: In function `gchar* arikkei_token_strdup(const ArikkeiToken*)': arikkei-token.c:83: `malloc' undeclared (first use this function) arikkei-token.c:83: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) make[3]: *** [arikkei-token.o] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/bryce/src/Inkscape/inkscape-integration/src/libarikkei' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 $ cvs log src/libarikkei/arikkei-token.c RCS file: /cvsroot/inkscape/inkscape/src/libarikkei/arikkei-token.c,v Working file: src/libarikkei/arikkei-token.c ---------------------------- revision 1.3 date: 2003/11/11 20:03:20; author: magnethead; state: Exp; lines: +1 -2 Patches to make compile on OSX/Darwin. malloc.h replace with unistd.h and Wl in src/Makefile.am removed at --export-dynamic ---------------------------- Looks like this was introduced due to the OSX/Darwin patch.

Recent additions include new keyboard shortcuts, alternate node joining method, ability to apply text to multiple text objects, an Open Recent menu item, and more. The codebase has also been modified to allow it to be compiled with either the gcc or g++ compilers. See the Release notes for more info: http://www.inkscape.org/release_0_35.html Please download the code, try it out, and report any bugs found to the Inkscape bug tracker. Congratulations to the dozens of people who have helped put this release together and get this project off the ground.

Win32 build
by Mael 12 Nov '03

12 Nov '03

Hello, I managed to build inkscape cvs on win32 (with Msys/MsysDTK/MinGW) A screenshot : http://195.221.122.126/tmp/inkscapewin32.png The configure.in doesn't care about win platform (Unfortunetely I don't know much about autoconf/automake) so I had to change some settings, and did a couple of modifications to Makefile and to some sources (if someone want more details ask me). Also Inkscape crashes if the latest libxml2 dll (2.6.2) is used I've not done too much tests: some icons seem to vanish, a test export to png was successful.. I'm not skilled enough to maintain a win32 port but I really hope someone will :-/ M
