isometric grid
by Robert Crosbie 10 Nov '03

10 Nov '03

Just wanted to say that the new grid system pictured on the website is an awsome awsome awsome idea. I can't wait to try it out. It would have been particularly useful when I was drawing triangular celtic knots.

icon.c
by Robert Crosbie 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

What direction is inkscape taking, expand use of icon.c generic subroutines, or use direct gtk calls? ie, do we expand use of: img = sp_icon_new(...) gtk_widget_show(img) or use img = gtk_image_new_from_file(...) gtk_widget_show(img) I'm looking into the bug where if you open the transformations dialog twice, inkscape will crash. The bug lies in the use of the icon.c routines. The transformations dialog is the only dialog to use the icon routines. I think we can quickly get rid of the crash by not using sp_icon_new. Otherwise I need to hunt more in the icon routines and see why the sp_icon_destroy is segfaulting.

more keys
by bulia byak 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

Still more keys today. See the wiki page. Notably, esc now deselects and cancels rubberband selection. Also, lots more ways to switch tools and call dialogs. The program is becoming actually usable :) Actually, the bulk of the Sodipodi shortcuts programming task is now ready. However, quite a few bits remain, and still more are in my plans. It's addictive :) Sorry I've been committing all this right before the release, but I think it's unlikely to break anything. However, anyone please test the new keys before making a release. -- __________________________________________________________ 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/

about_text.svg versus about.svg
by MenTaLguY 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

I'm afraid I made some changes to about.svg and committed before I noticed about_text.svg there, but I don't seem to have the same verion of the font bryce used... For now, I've removed about_text.svg from glade/, since about.svg has gotten out of sync with it and merging the changes back has proven non-trivial. Longer-term, we should probably consider either bringing back about_text.svg and including the font used as part of the source tree (licensing permitting), or leaving the version number as text... -mental

0.35 Release Status
by Bryce Harrington 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

We're nearly ready to cut the 0.35 release. The major change is of course the update to compile using g++ (or gcc). We've closed the bugs and integrated the patches posted to SourceForge. The code passes 'make distcheck' for Mental. A new About dialog has been created (http://www.inkscape.org/screenshots.html). We've got one more bug reported by mrchapp, that Mental is working on. Ted, would you like have the honor of cutting and posting the 0.35 release when Mental gives you the thumbs up signal? Bryce

patch to disable NRTFFT2_DEBUG output
by Robert Crosbie 09 Nov '03

09 Nov '03

I figure by default, this debug message should be turned off. It will remove the spew of console output when you select Inkscape->About Inkscape or work with text in general. Placing a "no" in front of the define seems to be the convention used elsewhere.
