Inviting you to LGM and Inkscape Hackfest in Toronto
by Bryce Harrington 26 Feb '15

26 Feb '15

Hi all, I would like to invite you all to join me in attending the Libre Graphics Meeting in Toronto! It is held April 29 to May 2 at the University of Toronto. Inkscape will also be hosting a Hackfest the three days prior to this event, April 26-28. If you've done any development on Inkscape, and wish to help us plan our future, then definitely please come! ~=> Please let me know ASAP if you can attend! <=~ We have sponsorship available on a limited basis to Inkscape contributors, first come first served, so make sure to RSVP with me quickly. Our community has been coming together with donations specifically to enable developer attendance. We've got $10,000 set aside for this event, and with this hope to assemble 10-12 developers there. Maybe more depending on how the fundraising goes! Speaking of fundraising, please help us spread the word that our project needs more cash donations for this event. Point folks here for details: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfest/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * The Libre Graphics Meeting is the major event of the year for FOSS graphics application developers and users. I've only been once myself, but Inkscape has attended many times. It's a great way to network with our peer projects, share ideas, and get inspired. * The Inkscape Hackfest is new this year. It's rare for us to have dedicated time face-to-face to work on Inkscape. We're going to use this valuable time to design some major new features and to plan out a roadmap that will take us to 1.0. Other topics I hope we can work on include designing a new extension system, re-thinking our UI design, improving our pdf/printing capabilities, and all the other things listed as 'Future' on our current roadmap page. Personally, I'm hoping to experiment with running Inkscape with cairo-gl, and test getting Inkscape running as a Wayland client. * Are you located in Toronto and available to help Inkscape? We're looking for someone who can assist with local logistics. Please contact me and let me know your availability. * Sponsorship amounts will vary according to your history with the project. We definitely want everyone but in particular we're hoping to encourage high volume, long term contributors, so will try and skew sponsorship their way. So if you're a long term contributor, you really need to come! Bryce

SCaLE related
by Josh Andler 26 Feb '15

Hey all, So, for those that don't know, SCaLE is the Southern California Linux Expo, it's the largest annual open source conference of it's type in North America (we had over 3,000 registered attendees this year). Just for transparency, I am one of the conference organizers (the Arts Chair), so I wanted to put that out there. Jon Cruz probably has a much better feel for how the booth activity was, but from the time I was there it seemed like the expo attendees were really interested in Inkscape as usual. The mix of people who know about Inkscape and those that have never heard of it was about the same as previous years from what I can tell (about 50/50), Jon could probably better comment on that since he spent far more time in the booth than I. Probably some of my best interactions were where people were users that couldn't figure out how to do things, and teaching them on the spot. I did want to say that the banner that we got for the booth made a big difference in terms of an appearance of professionalism. There was also an 18"x24" sign for the hackfest (which SCaLE paid for) which contributed to the booth appearance. Jon could give you numbers on how many of the Moo mini cards went out, but I think stickers will be a must in the future (people love free stuff, and I want to see people's laptops decorated with our logo). Anyway the items we had were definitely a great first step imho, but there are other components which we might want to look into for future years. Table skirt or much larger banner/booth backdrop for example. Note: The banner we have is great for the front of the booth, we just need something for the back as well. Anyway, just wanted to drop that little bit of info. I'm still kind of drained and not running on all cylinders again yet, so if I think of more, I will add it to the thread. Oh, and I just donated $5 to the hackfest via paypal because someone gave me a $5 bill in person at SCaLE. Cheers, Josh

I do have the one photo of me with the family in front of it. You can see a little of the booth (one computer with my Wacom), and the banner shows up.

Re: [Inkscape-devel] [Branch ~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk] Rev 13946: Isolate components of libgc
by Krzysztof Kosiński 25 Feb '15

25 Feb '15

Just a few notes: 1. This change is asking for trouble. "gc" is already used as the library name of Boehm GC, which we are linking to, so these internal GC components should be called "libinkgc" instead to avoid possible naming conflicts. 2. The convention so far was that "lib*" directories in the source tree are for in-tree forks/copies of third party libraries (except "libnrtype").

Inviting you to LGM and Inkscape Hackfest in Toronto
by Bryce Harrington 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

Hi all, I would like to invite you all to join me in attending the Libre Graphics Meeting in Toronto! It is held April 29 to May 2 at the University of Toronto. Inkscape will also be hosting a Hackfest the three days prior to this event, April 26-28. If you've done any development on Inkscape, and wish to help us plan our future, then definitely please come! ~=> Please let me know ASAP if you can attend! <=~ We have sponsorship available on a limited basis to Inkscape contributors, first come first served, so make sure to RSVP with me quickly. Our community has been coming together with donations specifically to enable developer attendance. We've got $10,000 set aside for this event, and with this hope to assemble 10-12 developers there. Maybe more depending on how the fundraising goes! Speaking of fundraising, please help us spread the word that our project needs more cash donations for this event. Point folks here for details: https://inkscape.org/en/support-us/hackfest/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ * The Libre Graphics Meeting is the major event of the year for FOSS graphics application developers and users. I've only been once myself, but Inkscape has attended many times. It's a great way to network with our peer projects, share ideas, and get inspired. * The Inkscape Hackfest is new this year. It's rare for us to have dedicated time face-to-face to work on Inkscape. We're going to use this valuable time to design some major new features and to plan out a roadmap that will take us to 1.0. Other topics I hope we can work on include designing a new extension system, re-thinking our UI design, improving our pdf/printing capabilities, and all the other things listed as 'Future' on our current roadmap page. Personally, I'm hoping to experiment with running Inkscape with cairo-gl, and test getting Inkscape running as a Wayland client. * Are you located in Toronto and available to help Inkscape? We're looking for someone who can assist with local logistics. Please contact me and let me know your availability. * Sponsorship amounts will vary according to your history with the project. We definitely want everyone but in particular we're hoping to encourage high volume, long term contributors, so will try and skew sponsorship their way. So if you're a long term contributor, you really need to come! Bryce

Gnome 3 integration
by Gez 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

Hi, I noticed that some type of dialogs in Inkscape have troubles with Gnome 3. The problems became more visible in Gnome 3.14. The most annoying issue is caused by the default behavior of modal windows in Gnome, which is blocking interactivity in windows below the modal dialog and darkening the background. I guess it makes sense for a modal window to behave like that (after all, the idea behind modal windows is to interrupt the workflow until an action is performed), but it clashes with some uses of modal windows in inkscape, like live preview of effects and extensions. Under gnome 3.14, turning on live preview puts the extension window in the center of the screen and blocks the underlaying UI elements, making it impossible to perform required actions as picking colors from the artwork. The window can't be moved, which means that sometimes it also covers the region the user wants to edit. I took this issue to the IRC channel yesterday, and su_v pointed out that it's really a window manager problem, which is absolutely true. The problem is that even though this default behavior creates problems in inkscape, it wouldn't be accurate to say it's a bug in Gnome, since it's a design choice to make modal windows act actually as modal dialogs. So, this is the situation: Modal windows act like that in Gnome and that affects adversely some features in inkscape. It's quite likely that both parties will suggest that the other party is doing it wrong if this is presented as a bug, so my intention here is open a discussion about possible solutions for this issue. Is there another type of GTK dialog that could be used for extensions and effects during live-preview instead of modal windows? Is it possible to override that behavior? Do you think it's sensible to ask Gnome developers to allow applications to override that behavior? In this bug report Ryan Lerch added some information about the problem (see comments #7 and #9) https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/649441 This is not the only issue with the latest GTK+: Some windows have no decoration, so they can't be closed except by right clicking on the top (color pickers in document properties, preferences). It is a wm problem, but since Gnome is one of the flagship DEs of libre software, it will be affecting a lot of users, so it would be nice if something can be done to mitigate these issues. Kind regards, Gez.

Inkscape.org now using oauth2 for google
by Martin Owens 23 Feb '15

23 Feb '15

Dear Developers and docs, Please be aware that because google are decommissioning their openid services, we've moved the inkscape.org social auth login from openid to their oauth2 service. If you have trouble logging in using the new service, or find that when you do, you have a new account instead of your original one. Please let me know. Martin,

Fwd: Automatic pixel art cleaning
by Krzysztof Kosiński 22 Feb '15

22 Feb '15

I finally have something that mostly works. Attached are example input and result. The algorithm I designed works as follows: 1. Compute a sum of Fourier transforms of each row and each column of the image. 2. For both sums, look for the 'base frequency', i.e. the size of the pixel grid. There are two variants here: if the pixel art does not have grid lines, the base frequency is indicated by periodic values very close to zero ("antipeaks"), and if it does, there are periodic peaks. Spacing between peaks / antipeaks corresponds to the number of pixels. I use an empirically derived scoring scheme. 3. Sample the image at the center of grid points. Currently I use bilinear sampling at the center of the pixel, but something more clever would be better to remove defacements. For instance, doing cluster analysis and picking the average of the most numerous cluster should work. 4. Quantize colors. I wanted to avoid having to specify the number of colors in advance, so I used single-link clustering in Lab color space. Complete-link would probably work better. 5. Output the resulting image as PNG. The only tunable value in the algorithm is the clustering diameter; everything else is automatic. A value of deltaE = 8 seems to work fairly well. The algorithm works very well if the following conditions are met: 1. Pixel size is at least 5-6. 2. Image borders are aligned with the pixel art grid. 3. There is no skew or other deformation of the image. We can handle small pixel sizes, e.g. 2-5, by simply checking whether the art pixels given by these grid parameters contain approximately uniform colors. Limitations 2 and 3 could be lifted by preprocessing the image before the FFT step. The Python script posted earlier in this thread can detect the edges of the pixel art, but it doesn't work well in some cases, for example in the case of sketches where the individual squares have jagged edges. However, I think the approach of doing a Hough transform to detect lines and then finding a projective transformation that straightens the image could be promising. Another idea is to find areas of approximately uniform color, mark them using something like flood fill, and then process the edges. I will soon post the code publicly and then integrate this into Inkscape as an optional step in the Trace Pixel Art dialog, but can't give an ETA yet. I think late March is realistic for integration. I will need to factor out a few things which are more universally useful, e.g. conversion to Lab color space and color quantization, or use an external library such as Babl or LCMS. Regards, Krzysztof

Needed: Hackfest Coordinator
by Bryce Harrington 21 Feb '15

21 Feb '15

We'll be having a hackfest for the 3 days prior to the Libre Graphics Meeting in Toronto. I'd like to put out a call for a volunteer to serve as event coordinator for this. Responsibilities will include coordinating expense reimbursements, liaising with the LGM coordinators, and handling other misc. tasks that come up. I'll be attending and will be available to help, but I'd like to focus more on technicals so would appreciate a dedicated events person. Contact me off list if interested and we'll sort out details. Bryce
