He tenido el problema de convertir un trazo cerrado a objeto y la herramienta de construcción de formas me ha solucionado la vida, ya que seleccionas todo el trazo y luego la herramienta, posteriormente haces click en el elemento y MUY IMPORTANTE luego clikeas en la herramienta selector (cursor flecha) y ya se convierte el trazo cerrado en objeto

Developer Meeting March 20 Present: PBS, Jonathan, Jabier, Mikekov, Tav, Vaibhav, Martin Event: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ ----- GTK4 branch: - close to getting merged - migrate existing threads into meta-issue https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4802 - Build documentation can be unchanged since it automatically buils GTK4.14 for you - 1.4.x was branched a few days ago - decision should be up to Marc, added as reviewer - do we need to review it in-depth? - testing is more important, but that can happen after merging - other CIs except Linux will be fixed in the future - CI situation should improve once GTK4.14 makes its way into the repositores - upstream Windows MR: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/pull/20311 1.4.x backports: - if they target master, backporting will be a pain as soon as GTK4 is merged - instead forward-port, reduce risk of regressions in 1.4.x by rebasing "behind" GTK4 - Label to mark those "Forward port required" created Bugfix Accelerator Program and Inbox: - will happen with Vaibhav, Tav and Martin - 1.4 milestone needs more issues, and Inbox is not in a very good state - Inbox is not in a very good shape, 1000 issues that need attention for triaging - Bugfix Accelerator people need to help - Ask vectors to recruit help Device program: - Windows for PBS, Mac for Tav, Mac for Vaibhav - PBS plans to sort out Visual Studio integration to on-board Windows developers Google Season of Docs - Ideas are welcome! Needs to have measureable objectives, and we need a 3-4 page proposal within two weeks. - a lot of work to mentor someone if it includes the Inkscape codebase - Wiki clean up? - Vector's style guide? - Documentation for extension authors? - Replacing Tav's manual? Host Tav's manual on inkscape.org? - fine with Tav - needs to be done before 1.4 - it didn't support HTTPS before - could be put into a repository? https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape-docs/tavmjong-manual Legal issues need to be resolved, i.e. the license for contributing, but we can make it readonly for now source is in DocBook (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/DocBook) Toolbars issues in master: 1. Several expander next to each other 2. No icons for the expanders 3. Lots of hardcoded expanders in the UI files. I've managed to dynamically manage the expanders and in the coming days I'll be working on adding icons to the expanders dynamically. With the latest changes, to make a child move between popovers and the toolbar, just adding the "tag" style class would do. ----- Big thanks to those that came and took notes as the meeting progressed. Best Regards, Martin Owens

Dear Developers, Thanks everyone for coming to this week's meeting. We had a short meeting and then worked through a bunch of really old merge requests. If you had an MR which was not marked as draft but had it's last activity more than 7 months ago, we might have closed your MR to keep things clean. Reopen branches and mark them as draft if you are still working on them. Some were also reviewed and approved. We're down to 58 open merge requests. ---- Meeting: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ Attending: Jonathan, Martin, Tav, René, Vaibhav, Elendil (Krlr17) # Bug Accelerator Program Jonathan Has tried to contact pono who is the third people in the hiring committee to finalise the process. May have to create tickets and move forwards as best as we can. # Machines for Developers Sent out a poll if people need a windows or macOS machine for their work. 2 responses. Will be approved case by case basis by the PLC since there won't be very many requests. # Website issues Martin was working on spam protections this morning. No further issues with DDos this week. # MacOS Rene has made it possible to get log files in the macOS tests on the CI. Probably an oversight in how it was created. The good news is that it's as fast as it used to be, under 5 minutes instead of 20 minutes. Achieved by downgrading to a previous os version likely a gtk issue. # Windows Wants to work on the Gtk4 windows builder. It's not ready yet, but expected int he next couple of days. # Gtk4 Tav has started working on a couple of different things. Doing the preview in the export dialog in the Gtk4 branch. Vaibhav is working on bug fixes on the Gtk4 branch this week. # Release Mikekov is looking at discrepencies between master and 1.3.x to see what is happening and what might need be fixed. Especially for the migration work. Made some MRs to adjust those small things, maintly cosmetic. Elendil - Reports an unstream windows issue with Pango which is fixed upstream but needs to make it's way to our msys2 builds. Will report it to msys2. # Other items Martin continues his work on the Color branch, not breakthroughs to report as of yet. Thanks everyone, see you all next week!

Announcement: The Inkscape 1.4 About Screen contest is upon us!
by Maren Hachmann 03 Mar '24

03 Mar '24

For each new version of Inkscape, we invite all Inkscape artists, newcomers and seasoned professionals, to submit an artwork for the "About Screen" contest. The About Screen Contest is about more than the About Screen. Contest artwork is also frequently featured in news articles about the release, on the inkscape.org download page, and in other locations. Each and every submission also helps us test the newest version of Inkscape. The topic for this year's contest is "GROWTH". We're excited to see what great art is submitted this year! We're looking forward to your contributions, to helping spread the message about the contest, and helping us select a winner!

Developer Meeting: Feb 25th 2024
by Martin Owens 25 Feb '24

25 Feb '24

Dear Devs, Big thanks to everyone who came to our meeting and all the new faces who came to talk about their work this week with us. Also thanks to everyone who stuck around for 2 HOURS! We got through some deep talk and a bunch of merge requests in our backlog (see below) Meeting: https://inkscape.org/cals/event/1/ Attending: Martin, Mansi, Marc, MikeKov, pbs, Rafael, Siddhant Agarwal, Tav, Vaibhav Malik, Ishaan Next Meeting: March 4th 2024 = Website DDOS Situation Martin talked about the DDos attack against the website and reported what happened and what things have been put in place to help bring it back. The website is still being attacked today. (two days) = Gtk4 Work PBS builds a Gtk4 app image and we can get the CI to build it. Currently we use an old ubuntu for app image and a newer ubuntu for other builds. We can actually get over this if we use a new tool introduced for building app images. Philip would like to hand this work onto another developer if we can find someone who's interested in the work. Some bugs fixed in the gtk4 branch. There's some bugs which were fixed in gtk4 branch but not merged into master and he's working on finding them and porting them. = Testing PBS reports that since we upgraded to C++20, the 2geom code coverage isn't working any more. It'll need to be fixed or disabled. = Release Schedules We talked a lot about release schedules, if other teams are seeing our plans and are in sync with us. How hard our deadlines are and why we use strctured releases in our project to help keep things moving and keep contributions going out to users etc. Many more details were covered casually. Vaibhav wanted to talk about test coverage and how we can improve our automated testing. He's also been working on some regressions related to toolbars migration and regressions related to context menu selection logic. = Packaging Marc is working on a complete rework of the debian packaging stuff, separating stuff in multiple packages, no more "inkscape-trunk" incompatibilities, no more "separate branch" with deps. = Color Refactoring PBS, Mikekov and Rafael helped reviewing Martin's large color refactoring merge request and work through some of the issues as well as explaining how it's structured. Martin made a video to explain the outline and the other developers were able to review the various issues and how it needs to be improved going forwards. = Other Work PBS wants to finish the command line bitmap tracing branch for 1.4, somebody made a fork of inkscape and replaced the gui with a command line and someone else then tried backporting that back into inkscape to give us command line bitmap tracing. Mikekov has pushed a bunch of small bug fixes. There are so many things that have changed in 1.4 and there's some concerns that the refactoring will cause instability and we may not have the bug fixing resources. Mansi will be wrapping up revamping of filter gallery with one more mr :) (most of them have been fixed). Apart from them diving deep into rendering of selection tool and trying to figure out the cause of the issue - selection tool corner handles off by a small amount Siddhant wanted to ask about livarot functionality and the lib2geom GSoC and wanted to know what work had already been done. = Group Activity: Merge Request Review We work on our merge requests backlog as there is a large number of merge requests (90!) that need to be either merged or closed. We got through 9 of them today. --------------------------- Best Regards, Martin Owens

[Call for applications] Bugfix accelerator 2024
by Jonathan Neuhauser 21 Feb '24

21 Feb '24

Dear dev team, upon request of the dev meeting, the PLC recently voted [1] for another round of the bugfix accelerator program! Experienced contributors can now apply to fix issues for the 1.4 release, and get paid by the project! As per the vote [1], 5 merged MRs in inkscape/inkscape since the 1.3 release (July 23, 2023) are required. *Please read the document attached to the vote carefully if you plan to apply.* Contractors are expected to set aside at least 10hrs per week for the program (last year’s experience has shown that doing the contract in parallel to a full-time job is not sustainable). The application should contain * your gitlab username * how much time per week you can allocate to the program * specific areas of expertise * experience with contracting work Send your application as reply to this email (directly to me). I'll respond when I see it. *Deadline for applications: Wednesday Feb 28, 23:59 UTC* Best regards, Jonathan [1] https://lists.inkscape.org/hyperkitty/list/inkscape-board@lists.inkscape.or…
