Re: [Inkscape-devel] [LGM] Fwd: LGM 2016: Call for Participation
by C R 03 Jan '16

03 Jan '16

I'm working on some proposals for talks this weekend. These are things I can talk about as a graphic designer who works with opensource software as a primary toolset. Inkscape will be featured in several of these talks, but I also desire to help the Inkscape Project with any materials and ideas for talks. What I'd like is to have (for the Inkscape Project) is a series of short videos where our current contributors to the project talk about what motivates them to contribute to Libre software. I will then compile these into a video (5-10 minute) video about Inkscape to present at LGM. This is a way for some of us who can not make it to London to talk about their role in Inkscape as a developer and/or professional user. To make it easy for the camera-shy among us, I'd suggest we do it in a format that resembles this mini commercial I did recently for a small Italian Restaurant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmPQ8FjRqr8 Something to notice is that the question comes up as text in the video rather than having a presenter ask questions, which makes it easy to ask and answer the questions as a regular conversation, rather than just an interview. Notice at no time did Carlo (who is tremendously camera-shy) have to look at the camera. He was always looking at me (off camera), and just answering my questions while ignoring the camera entirely. In this way I'm able to mix in relevant graphics, and cover mistakes or pauses to produce a professional quality edit with key points of interest. I will provide all editing, compositing, music, captioning (in the case where translation is needed). All materials will be provided in open formats as well for your tinkering pleasure. Any interest in this idea? -C On Sun, Jan 3, 2016 at 10:26 AM, Femke Snelting <snelting@...2319...> wrote: > All the best for 2016! > > ... and don't forget to submits your proposal for the upcoming LGM in > London! > > Deadline: *Sunday January 10th* > > > -------- Forwarded Message -------- > Subject: LGM 2016: Call for Participation > Date: Thu, 3 Dec 2015 15:46:29 +0100 > From: Femke Snelting <snelting@...2319...> > To: libre-graphics-meeting@...626... > > *Libre Graphics Meeting 2016: Other Dimensions* > > http://libregraphicsmeeting.org > > > The eleventh annual international Libre Graphics Meeting 2016 will take > place Friday 15th until Monday 18th April 2016 in London, UK.

Extension to export objects or layers to individual files: looking for testers/feedback
by su_v 03 Jan '16

03 Jan '16

Motivated by a request here on the mailing list wrt support for preparing animation frames from within Inkscape based on paths generated with Inkscape's 'Interpolate' extension, I began working on an extension to export a group of paths, or a selection of objects, to individual SVG files in November last year. Recent testing and feedback by Jabiertxo Arraiza Cenoz (thanks a lot!) introduced more features: export of layers or sublayers to individual files, additional export file formats (PNG, GIF) and optional creation of an animated GIF image of all exported objects (for bitmap-based export formats only). It also introduced a dependency on 'convert' from ImageMagick for the additional file formats. A snapshot of the current state of the extension can be downloaded for testing from the report in the bug tracker: * Bug #1530380 “Extension to export objects to separate files for ...” https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1530380 Some known issues and limitations are mentioned in the report description (and later comments) - any further feedback would be appreciated (I'm sorry for the lack of documentation / tutorial at this stage). Regards, V

Colour Mixing
by Martin Owens 31 Dec '15

31 Dec '15

Dear Ink-devels, My friend has just complained that Inkscape doesn't have colour mixing. He's the first person to mention this functionality to me and I believe from his description the idea is that the colours can be mixed off canvas, where two color stops are selected and then a slider can move between the two. Has anyone ever heard of this? Best Regards, Martin Owens

Questions about EllipticalArc, BezierCurve, and Path
by Papoj Thamjaroenporn 24 Dec '15

24 Dec '15

Dear Inkscape-devel, I would like to convert a path that internally stores EllipticalArcs into a path with a bunch of BezierCurves. Is there a method that already does this? One way I think can be used is to convert path to pwd2, and convert back again to pathVector using path_from_piecewise() because internally it only uses Bezier curves, but I am wondering if there is a more direct way to do this. If I have a PathVector structure, and I know all Paths inside are connected to each other, is there an easy way to convert such PathVector into Path? Thank you. Regards, _______________________ Papoj "Hua" Thamjaroenporn papojt@...3117...

Jenkins administration
by Johan Engelen 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Hi all, Jenkins, our CI system, has been down for more than a month. It looks like the disk has filled up, and we need to do clean up / the build tasks should clean up after themselves better (I suspect it has to do with storing the results of too many older builds instead of just the current one plus a few recent builds). We need an administrator for Jenkins. Currently, I think only me and Bryce have access, which is not good enough. Who is interested in maintaining the automatic build/testing system? Of course, you can tailor the system to your own likes; there is much to be improved and I think all are open to whatever crazy plans you may have :-) http://jenkins.inkscape.org/ regards, Johan

Different sizes when cut and paste between Inkscape Trunk or Stable and FontForge
by Ivan Louette 23 Dec '15

23 Dec '15

Hello, Because of hardware problems with my main PC tower I went to my laptop where Inkscape 0.91 stable was installed while I mainly use Trunk usually. I noticed a difference in size in cut and paste from FontForge (the version 2 from Ubuntu 14.04 repositories) between Trunk and Stable 0.91. And I don't know if this is due to changes in units in Inkscape, and intentional or not. Thus I hesitate to fill a bug. However I will fill it if necessary. I ask me also if some settings I changed in my Trunk could cause this change. - if I cut a glyph in FF and paste it in Inkscape Trunk, its size in Inkscape is equivalent to this glyph typed at 750 pts - if I do the same to Inkscape Stable it's equivalent to the same at 800 pts ivan

Rounder Extension
by Jabiertxo Arraiza Cenoz 22 Dec '15

22 Dec '15

Hi to all, I just made a new extension to round to a fixed decimal position some data in SVG. Currently it round optionaly: Nodes, with another optional check to move handles along Handles Stroke width Height Width Position X Position Y https://inkscape.org/en/gallery/item/7126/ Ping me if think some atribute important to add( ex:transforms, viewbox...) Cheers, Jabier.

How to properly fix bug and commit to Inkscape trunk
by Papoj Thamjaroenporn 17 Dec '15

17 Dec '15

Dear Inkscape-devel, I would like to fix a simple bug I found in src/helper/geom.cpp::pathv_to_cubicbezier(). The control points are not set correctly: Geom::CubicBezier b(cit->initialPoint(), cit->pointAt(0.3334) + Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap), cit->finalPoint(), cit->finalPoint()); where it should have been: Geom::CubicBezier b(cit->initialPoint(), cit->pointAt(0.3333) + Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap), cit->pointAt(0.6667) + Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap), cit->finalPoint()); or more precisely: Geom::CubicBezier b(cit->initialPoint(), cit->pointAt(1./3.) + Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap), cit->pointAt(2./3.) + Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap), cit->finalPoint()); (The Geom::Point(cubicGap,cubicGap) shouldn’t really be there, but that’s a separate issue I described in another email.) I am not sure how to properly submit this. Do I follow the practice for bzr here <http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Working_with_Bazaar#Test_branches_b…> and simply merge my fix (without a need for someone to review)?
