Here's a crashing .svg file
by Miguel Lopez 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

I'm just gonna leave a crashing .svg file here for developers to look at since it been crashing upon opening, and I was using mirror, rotate copies extension. It crashed when I attempted to scale the entire watch, and then I couldn't open earlier version of the watch. Oh, and I think that arrange tool might need a "center of page" instead of having to type in axis for the rotate part. That would make this watch a lot easier. Other than that, I'm really liking where Inkscape is getting at. I must say that I am using it alongside with Illustrator to get the best of both world.

Dear inkscape developers, We have undertaken a task to assess code complexity triggers and generate recommendations for developing simple and understandable code. Our intension is to share the results with you, developers, so everyone can learn the triggers behind complex software. We need your help for rigorous results. My request to you is - if you get 5-10 min. time, would you please consider to answer the questions of this survey on code complexity? https://goo.gl/forms/h9WXZ8VSEw7BUyHg1 You are welcome to learn preliminary results through this link: https://www.facebook.com/SoftwareCodeQuality/photos/?tab=album&album_id=163… The results will be shared in a public webpage and everyone possible will be invited to learn and discuss them. Your knowledge and experience is vital for achieving substantial and generalizable results, and your effort is much appreciated!

CMake now working on Windows
by Sebastian Faubel 05 Sep '16

05 Sep '16

Hello everybody, I submitted a merge request of my Inkscape branch yesterday. Thanks to Marc it has already found its way into trunk - big thank you for the quick review. The branch I submitted now has full support for compiling Inkscape on Windows with 32-Bit and 64-Bit environments. It also supports out of source builds and should also work with Unix llike command lines such as Cygwin and MSYS. After weeks of investigation I managed to get locales to work and have an executable icon along with all application icons. Actually, the only thing that it distinguishes from a btool build now is that it does not (yet) produce the inkscape.com console binary. However, that should not be a big deal. In all other regards it should be ready for testing and packaging. I already updated the Wiki page with the new compilation instructions. Again, thank you Marc and hopefully we're a step closer now to a 0.92 release on all platforms. ~Sebastian *Semiodesk GmbH | *Werner-von-Siemens-Str. 6 Geb. 15k, 86159 Augsburg, Germany | Phone: +49 821 8854401 | Fax: +49 821 8854410 | www.semiodesk.com This e-mail message may contain confidential or legally privileged information and is intended only for the use of the intended recipient(s).

Re: [Inkscape-devel] [Bug 1258842] Re: No page for vectors vs. Bitmaps

@Martin Owens https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape-web/+bug/1258842 You are not as disappointed as I am with you. Irregular is right. How dare you speak to me this way. You were clearly told, before you went ahead and made the page live, that I did not have a working picture plugin. I am not responsible if you do not provide the tools needed to upload image files. It was and/or ought to have been clear to anyone with eyes to see, that the test page relied on external links, and you were directed to this fact. Further, I did not ask you to download files from my web-site. In fact you downloaded the said files without asking, and without my consent. Is this how you generally behave, and treat artists? If so, shame on you, and shame on you for doing it to me. I provided links to those resources only, and not the resources themselves, Inkscape have no claim on them, or right to host those image files. Please remove them, and please refer this matter to the Board. It seems to me, it was a very small thing indeed, especially in the circumstances to ask that someone replace dirty files with clean ones, not least because I did not have the tools, and/or permissions to replace them at that time. We were so close to getting the thing right, and your hostile reaction is totally innapropriate. I have put a lot of hard work into this project, and I have had few thanks for doing so. As a reward for my effort, you have taken artwork which does not belong to you, and in addition you removed my editor priviledges. I cannot trust, or work with you again. Whatever your problem is, it should be with yourself with who you are disappointed, and to be treated and spoken too, by you in this way, is wholly unacceptable. Thanks to you, I have deleted, the guides, and viewBox extension files from my resources directory. I am more dissapointed than you can possiblt know, or imagine, and you can of course file your own bug report. I will not be the assignee for the 'No page for vectors vs. Bitmaps' bug, thank you. -u ---- On Fri, 02 Sep 2016 16:23:22 +0000 Martin Owens <doctormo@...400...> wrote ---- @ugajin - The files you provided on the page were published as live. I'm disappointed that you have come back to me now, after the publish time, to tell me the graphics were not the final versions. This is highly irregular and I will not change the files at this time. When we come back to this page in the future, we can update the graphics. But I have committed the page in it's current state and with that I complete this long bug report as Fixed Released. Please open another bug report to update the graphics. Maren if you need to track the svg picture plugin issue, or a bug report to make our own plugin, please go ahead. ** Changed in: inkscape-web Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: inkscape-web Status: New => Fix Released ** Changed in: inkscape-web Assignee: (unassigned) => rant (ugajin) -- You received this bug notification because you are subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1258842 Title: No page for vectors vs. Bitmaps Status in Inkscape-website: Fix Released Bug description: This page here: http://quasdar.deviantart.com/art/Bitmaps-vs-Vectors-323184682 Looks like the kind of information we may want on the website.

Inkscape Board Meeting Sep 2nd
by Bryce Harrington 29 Aug '16

29 Aug '16

Hi Inkscapers, For September's board meeting, I'd like to plan on getting together this Friday, September 2nd, at the usual time, noon Pacific, in #inkscape-devel. http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Board_Meetings Last meeting we discussed hackfest locations. My wife's been helping me scope out some awesome places in the area, and we have a good option to present. We'd also talked about sending a few folks to a GNOME event this fall; this meeting will be the last opportunity to get that underway if we want to do it. Another important agenda item is to follow up on the Inkscape Forum transition, and discuss follow up tasks. I've also started working on setting up an Inkscape account on Spreadshirt and put some Q's in to SFC regarding bank info and taxes, but am hoping that will be ready for usage soonish. So I'd like to chat with Mc and anyone else that would like to participate in getting that off the ground. Bryce
