Hi. Im starting whith a branch for made B-Splines in inkscape. I have a problem compiling effects-cpp whith the "-" symbol. I check another Live Effects whith the same problem but im not sure about what is better. The name of the lpe is "B-Spline" but i want to ask whats better use 2 kinds of name (ex- "B-Spline" && "B_Spline") or use another name like "B Spline" && "B_Spline" or "BSpline" && "BSpline". Its a basic cuestion but i want to start ok. Finaly the cuestion are: What is better? BSpline BSpline Thanks and sorry for my bad english.

> Cairo does the job fairly fast and you can set up multithreading in Edit/Preferences/Rendering/ I set the number of threads to 8 some days ago and I was a bit disappointed to see no enhancement at reboot. Just forgot I set inkscape preferences file to be read-only. Fool. Now it's better :) > Basically, each filter primitive constitutes a very expensive copy of the image. Yes know that. By the way, is there any chart about CPU consumption of each primitive ? (say for 1px wide). I would say lighting is the more CPU intensive, am I right ? >(if you're really interested, I'd recommend searching the archives). Is there any other way to search the archives than the sourceforge web interface ? The UI is crappy and inefficient (or maybe I missed something obvious) > all these problems are non-trivial to solve. Maybe it lacks at least one trivial optimisation. It looks like Inkscape render all primitives even if they're not "connected" to output. Exemple Create new filter. Add a Fill => rendering is lightning fast. Add 50 blur stages with a 100 px radius => it should be slower or way slower or ssslllloooowwwweeerrr (depending on your hardware). Logical. Move the fill at the last stage of pipeline. Still slow. It shouldn't. It's uneccesary to compute any blur stage at all. You'll ask why the hell do you add unnecessary stages ? When I design filter I often ask myself "what will it looks like if I disconnect these block of 5 primitives " As adding primitive is very slow with the current interface (*) I don't remove the block but I only disconnect it. As time goes by there are more and more dead blocks and I sometimes forget to remove them. I'm not 100% sure but I think I saw dead blocks in filters fitting with inkscape * any news about this blueprint ? http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/SpecFilterEditorUI No ? So I should think about buying a new monitor. Mine (1920*1200) is too small for designing filters. lol

Compiling on Windows 7 x64
by Arshdeep Singh 27 Oct '12

27 Oct '12

Hello, Unfortunately, there is some problem with the build file or something wrong with the inkscape.exe. I have tried compiling on another machine on Windows 7 x64 only to face the same problem. The problem is: the build process completes successfully without errors but the inkscape.exe runs for a few seconds (seen in the task manager) and then quits. No windows opening, no send error report messages. Just a 'inkscape.exe' process in the task manager. Compiled by following the below page word to word: http://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Compiling_Inkscape_on_Windows Compiler: TDM-GCC 4.7.1 Mingw32 bit edition and not the experimental 32 cum 64 bit one. I am new to development and can't seem to debug the .exe properly using gdb.exe. Please, can someone look into this. -- Arshdeep Singh

Coefficients in FeColorMatrix, Fecomposite (limits, behaviour with neg val...)
by pennec victor 26 Oct '12

26 Oct '12

Hi, I think I'll be a little bit off topic but I don't know where to ask (my question about svg on inkscapeforum are left unanswered) Can someone point me to reference papers (or friendly forum) about coefficients in FeColorMatrix, Fecomposite ? Something that could answer the following questions : What are safe values ? For exemple inkscape UI allows x10 for k1,k2,k3,k4 in FeComposite, can I push to 255 ? 256 ? 1000000 ? I don't see anything in SVG spec about max values for those coeffs. What about neg values ? When does clipping occur ? Particularly for k4. What is the effect of a <100% opacity source or dest ? (On clipping for exemple) I try to port svg2 PorterDuff operations in svg 1 and I often get strange results (to me) with inkscape. Is there some known bugs in rendering fecomposite with neg values in inkscape ? Thx. V. Bonus question : why is inkscape so slow at rendering filters ? ;)

Setting Up in Eclipse-CDT
by Arshdeep Singh 26 Oct '12

26 Oct '12

I intend to use Eclipse-CDT for working around the source code to understand things. If anyone can help me with it ? I import it. The C/C++ Code ananlysis results in lot of errors/warnings. I was wishing I code jump b/w linked files like we do for smaller projects in IDEs similar to Eclipse. Is something of that sort possible ? -- Arshdeep Singh Third Year, Computer Engineering Delhi Technological University Ph: +91-9654115614

Rendering cache committed
by Krzysztof Kosiński 25 Oct '12

25 Oct '12

Hello I committed the rendering cache work in revision 10579 of trunk. If you encounter serious problems, you can turn off caching completely by defining the environment variable _INKSCAPE_DISABLE_CACHE. For example, run inkscape as: $ _INKSCAPE_DISABLE_CACHE=1 inkscape By default, each drawing will use up to 64 MB of memory for rendering data. It can be set in the "Rendering" page of the preferences (renamed from "Filters"). As usual, problem reports are welcome. Regards, Krzysztof

Hi All, Am I missing something... I can't see anything that includes the "sp-color-gtkselector.h" header. Anyone know what's going on here? Cheers, AV
