Fix for #771957: interleaved text and graphics in pdf+latex output
by David R. Bild 27 Aug '13

27 Aug '13

The current implementation of pdf+latex renders all text objects (LaTeX) above all graphical objects (PDF). I needed to export a figure with text interleaved with graphics---essentially bug #771957---so I implemented a simple fix for it. I'd like to see this (or, more likely, a modified version) merged for 0.49, but I'm not sure who maintains the pdf+latex renderer. Please let me know how to help. The code is at https://code.launchpad.net/~drbild/inkscape/multilayer-pdf-latex-output -- David -- David R.

Fwd: Modifications to RecolorWheelPrivate

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Arshdeep Singh <moduli16@...400...> Date: Mon, Aug 26, 2013 at 1:22 PM Subject: Modifications to RecolorWheelPrivate To: Ted Gould <ted@...11...>, Krzysztof Kosiński <tweenk.pl@...400...> Hi, I added a map object by the name 'nodes' to RecolorWheelPrivate: std::map<std::string,RecolorWheelNode> nodes; I then added this snippet for painting recolor nodes from the map: for (std::map<std::string,RecolorWheelNode>::iterator iter = priv->nodes.begin(); iter != priv->nodes.end(); ++iter) { dist = (*iter).second._color[1] * outer ; xx = center_x + cos ((*iter).second._color[0] * 2.0 * G_PI) * dist; yy = center_y - sin ((*iter).second._color[0] * 2.0 * G_PI) * dist; (*iter).second.x = (gfloat)xx; (*iter).second.y = (gfloat)yy; r = (*iter).second._color[0]; g = (*iter).second._color[1]; b = (*iter).second._color[2]; hsv_to_rgb (&r, &g, &b); } I added this snippet to performUpdate() in the recolor-artwork-widget.cpp : void RecolorArtworkWidget::performUpdate() { if ( update || !desktop ) { return; } if ( dragId ) { // local change; do nothing, but reset the flag g_source_remove(dragId); dragId = 0; return; } update = true; Inkscape::Selection *selection = sp_desktop_selection(desktop); GSList const *items = NULL; //int selObj = 0; if ( selection ) { items = selection->itemList(); //selObj = g_slist_length (const_cast<GSList*>(items)); RecolorWheel* wheel = (RecolorWheel*) (((RecolorWheelSelector*)(rsel))->getWheel()) ; RecolorWheelNode temp; for (GSList const *i = items; i != NULL; i = i->next) { SPObject *obj=reinterpret_cast<SPObject *>(i->data); Inkscape::XML::Node* obj_repr = obj->getRepr(); SPCSSAttr* obj_css = sp_repr_css_attr( obj_repr , "style" ); guint32 rgb32 = sp_svg_read_color( sp_repr_css_property( obj_css, "fill", "#ababab") , 0xF0F8FF ); SPColor color = SPColor (rgb32); float rgb[3] , hsv[3]; sp_color_get_rgb_floatv (&color, rgb); sp_color_rgb_to_hsv_floatv (hsv , temp._color[0] , temp._color[1] , temp._color[2] ); add_node_to_recolor_wheel (wheel, obj->getId() , temp ); } } update = false; } There seems to be some runtime error. Opening the RecolorArtwork Dialogbox crashes inkscape. Running gdb shows the warning that "HEAP: Free heap block a90b8f6 modified at a90b8f6 after it was freed" . Can't figure out whats making the application to crash. I have uploaded this branch too.

[Units] Analysis of SVG Units
by Matthew Petroff 25 Aug '13

25 Aug '13

Sorry for my recent lack of updates. I was out of the country without a computer for a little over a week, was further delayed by a flight cancellation, and just got back. I had meant to post this update prior to leaving but didn't quite finish writing it in time. I have carefully read the SVG specification with regards to units, coming up with examples and a plan for implementation of real world units. http://www.mpetroff.net/archives/2013/08/24/analysis-of-svg-units/ -Matthew

[Recolor] Progress Report
by Arshdeep Singh 24 Aug '13

24 Aug '13

Hello all, First of all apologies for being out of touch for so long. There was a placement drive in my college (which took place in October every year but was pre-poned to August this year) and hence I was busy studying. I resumed work on the project from 17th August. In a previous discussion with Ted and Krzysztof , it was concluded that making an all-together separate ColorSelector class for RecolorWheel would be better and much more convenient to code. I was busy doing that this week. Now what remains is to hookup the signals for the recolor wheel. The class nesting of Paint-Selector, GimpWheel etc has me caught a bit right now. I'll figure those out soon. Thanks. -- Arshdeep Singh Third Year, Computer Engineering Delhi Technological University Ph: +91-9654115614 https://sites.google.com/site/adsingh1729/home

Image question

On import of a 10 x 10 color 3 color bitmap from EMF (intrinsically "sharp") it is converted to the following SVG (sorry about the wrap): <image y="374.99722" x="404.997" xlink:href="data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAoAAAAKCAIAAAACUFjqAAAAUElEQVQYlW2OwQ3AMAgDrxJjwP6DAXO0j1QJQfiFMGfzvBBKKG7DIAGgjIrfni4SQPwsrHJLmy4ZZdVsyKulhm/utBT6ytHbzv74uhDvXJV9Tw0bLHsWOIMAAAAASUVORK5CYII=" height="14.999889" width="14.999889" transform="matrix(1,0,0,1,0,0)" id="image4597" /> When viewed in Inkscape on either Linux or Windows there is what looks like a compression artifact, 1 pixel wide, all the way around the square. However, when viewed in Seamonkey, Firefox, or Opera it is sharp, with the colors just as expected from the original bitmap. (Opera is best for this, because it can zoom in further than the other two browsers.) What accounts for this? Is there some switch one can throw in Inkscape to disable whatever it is doing (anti-aliasing, maybe?) to cause this effect? Thanks, David Mathog mathog@...1176...

Points can be selected in groups which can be transformed (scale, shear, rotate, translate etc.). Simple orthogonal routing and straight routing work.

Solving bug #166371 - SAX parser
by Krzysztof Kosiński 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hello After fixing the XXE vulnerability, Inkscape can no longer read SVGs that use entities in URLs. Notable cases include SVGs saved from Adobe Illustrator. There does not seem to be a way to replace these entities without reintroducing the XXE vulnerability. https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/166371 I just wanted to point out that the best way to solve this would be to use libxml2's SAX parser or the newer XmlTextReader parser to directly construct the tree of Inkscape::XML::Node's, instead of postprocessing the XML tree obtained from the DOM-like parser. With this approach, we could intelligently substitute only string entities and ignore entities that point to URLs or external files. An additional bonus would be a reduction in memory use and load time, since the libxml2 DOM tree would not be created. http://www.xmlsoft.org/xmlreader.html Regards, Krzysztof

EMF import on Linux
by Krzysztof Kosiński 21 Aug '13

21 Aug '13

Hello I know that there is working EMF import on Linux, and you can paste things from e.g. ChemDraw. Is it possible to make this code also work on Linux, using e.g. libemf, or would it require writing a completely new input filter? Regards, Krzysztof

Quoting Josh Andler <scislac@...400...>: > If it's already in use in 2geom and liked, I'd vote for it just > because of that alone. > > Cheers, > Josh Yes, Google Test and Boost Test are close enough that the use by 2geom might be a strong deciding factor. To summarize some of the differences: Google Test: * does not use exceptions. Among other things this means that if a function is called that might result in a test failing, the calling test will need to add an extra line to check status afterwards. * intended to be copied into the using project's source tree * needs the additional 'Google Mock' library for certain things such as comparing collections Boost Test: * uses exceptions to terminate tests * use is with pre-built libs/source that are not copied in-tree (which is an external dependency on that Boost library) * does not have an academic/artificial distinction between 'Mock' objects and general fakes/stubs So as long as it looks good to switch to Google Test, I'd suggest copying in Google Mock to our source, since it is a superset and contains a copy of the full Google Test sources. We should keep the actual gmock use to a minimum (even Google themselves warn against Mock overuse), but the collections support alone is extremely useful.
