0.92 milestone now registered
by Bryce Harrington 21 Oct '14

21 Oct '14

Bug reports and blueprints can now be targeted to the 0.92 milestone. I've also opened a 0.91.1 milestone. Please review bugs currently milestoned against 0.91 and re-milestone them to either 0.92 or 0.91.1 (or both). For 0.91.1 we should look for issues which are either severe problems, or that have unambiguously correct fixes. Severe problems include compilation issues, installation breakage, crashes, startup failures, functional regressions, data loss situations, and the like. Unambiguously correct means either by code inspection or mechanical testing we know with great assurance there can be no possible bug in the patch. Everything else should be pushed to 0.92. Also, don't be shy about just deleting milestones on bugs you think are not severe, not easily fixed, and not otherwise pressing issues. Bryce

0.91 About Screen Contest Results

We have a winner! http://prudentity.deviantart.com/art/Eisvogel-485536813 If there are any changes or suggestions, please let's try to collect them into one thread so I can then request all modifications at one time. The first one I have will be to use the traditional Inkscape & Draw Freely text from our branding file. Cheers, Josh

Wiki account
by Maren Hachmann 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hi everyone, I saw that this Wiki page: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/WebSite needs an update, and I'd like to do that, so that when the next version of the website is released, translators will have a current guide to follow. Could the person responsible for the Wiki accounts add an account for me (preferred username: Moini)? Thank you, Maren

patterns
by Jabier Arraiza 20 Oct '14

20 Oct '14

Hi to all. I'm going to work in patterns to: * If pattern change for example is a clone the pattern is updated. * Make patterns updatable by some live effects -envelope-perspective, envelope, lattice1/2... basicaly deform LPE like experimental do whith clips and mask If any question about, tell me. Regards, Jabier.

Powerstroke - interpolation change
by Johan Engelen 19 Oct '14

19 Oct '14

Hi all, Jabier has found a fairly common case where LPE Powerstroke is behaving unintuitive / unstable / scale-dependent. See the attachment. Both paths are exactly the same, except for a very slight (y-coord) change in the right-most width control knot. This instability happens because of how the interpolation between width knots is done. [*] The fix I propose, and committed to experimental in rev. 13620, is to do the interpolation in a 'proper' coordinate system, using the length of the path as a scaling factor for the width knot offsets. This removes the unstable behavior, and also removes the scale-dependent output (noticeable when scaling the path: the result changes if the width points scale with the same factor). Please test if you like this behavior better. (Compare the attached file in trunk and experimental.) The problem is that for some cases, this will change the result of powerstroked paths dramatically. Can we apply such changes so shortly before release? An alternative is changing it after release, which would be even worse in my opinion. regards, Johan [*] It's technical, but here goes quickly for who is interested. Knots are treated as [offset along path, width] points. The offset along path is the segment number + the location along that segment. The width is (may not be true, but for ease of discussion) in canvas coordinates. This means that the interpolation is performed in a *very* compressed coordinate system, where the x-coords may range from, say, 0 to 5, and the y-coords from 0 to 2000. This is also scale dependent; changing the scale of your path and scaling all widths accordingly will change the look of your path. (The implementation of this scaling is implemented by Jabier and I will commit it shortly.)

Procedural template for tesselation
by Jabiertxo Arraiza Cenoz 18 Oct '14

18 Oct '14

Hi to all. Attached are a procedural template for teselation. I need help testing, improving and put better strings. Also not sure if procedural template, extension or both. Procedural templates are located in experimental branch into share/extensions. If no object i put on experimental to try. Later make the same as extension for 0.48. Regards, Jabier.

Templates in experimental branch.
by Tavmjong Bah 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hi, I've replaced a large fraction of the templates in the experimental branch by "procedural" templates. This unclutters quite a bit the Templates menu as well as offering overall more options. Please test your favorite templates and give me feedback. Thanks, Tav

Daily builds - with static analysis
by unknown＠example.com 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hi all, I have set up a daily build system that checks if trunk still builds (on Ubuntu) and, more importantly, runs clang's static analyzer using scan-build. You can find the results here: http://ec2-54-69-235-61.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:8080/ After some clicking, you will find these interesting pages (links may become obsolete after a new build) http://ec2-54-69-235-61.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:8080/job/Inkscape_t… and http://ec2-54-69-235-61.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:8080/job/Inkscape%2… As you can see, there are still some nasty bugs in trunk. For example http://ec2-54-69-235-61.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:8080/job/Inkscape_t… -Johan (currently I run Jenkins on free-tier EC2, but we are working on getting something more permanent. Expect a longer email with plans in the near future)

Release Notes reminder
by Josh Andler 16 Oct '14

16 Oct '14

Hey All, This is just the occasional reminder to make sure the release notes are up to date. Given that development on 0.91 is getting late in the cycle if people could go over the release notes [1] for it and double check all noteworthy changes are listed that would be great. Given that a number of things have landed or changed in Experimental, we need to document these things while they are still relatively fresh in people's minds. It would be helpful if authors of any new features or fixes could create a temporary release notes page for staging this information before anything gets ported to trunk (after 0.91 is forked). Cheers, Josh [1] http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/0.91
