It looks like I may be able to package Inkscape in a dmg. The procedure is refreshed version of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/inkscape/+spec/inkscape-quartz It has been compiled on Moutain Lion (64 bits) from trunk. You should be able to give is a spin from: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/49834266/Inkscape.dmg Let me know if it works for you and/or if it is worth pushing this further. Regards, -Gellule

Re: [Inkscape-devel] Understand Code

I am sorry, I know the question is vague. But, I am new to inkscape development and owing very little in-code commenting and guiding sections, the project seems to intimidating and big to understand by sheer hit-and-trial. Till now I have figured out this: 1.) src\dialog contains all dialog boxes' codes. I happen to have fixed a bug recently, Bug-773228. during the course to figure it out, I understood "dialog" contents. 2.) Your direction tells me, "display" is handling the rendering part. 3.) The "widget" directory happens to handle basic functionality types land tools. I really don't know what I need right now, but I was looking for a general understanding of how the code handles what to render on the canvas and then save it there and still enable editing. Maybe you mean, the code is abstracted onto Cairo's code, so we need not get behind the curtain. If that being the case, I would like to know, is there any general source for me understand these workings ? Sorry, if the questions are stupid, I am not that bad at understanding code in general, but without any kind of documentation and help it becomes a little obscure. -Arshdeep On Mon, Oct 29, 2012 at 8:51 PM, Jasper van de Gronde <th.v.d.gronde@...528...> wrote: > On 29-10-12 10:57, Arshdeep Singh wrote: >> Can you shed some light on SP Classes ? > > Can you be more explicit about what you want to know? > >> Also, where can I get to know what inputs are passed on from Inkscape >> code to Cairo for various purposes like when I'm drawing a bezier or a >> rectangle ? > > I think you are probably more interested in the src/display directory, > as that's where the actual drawing is done (or Cairo is called at > least).

Hey All, I'm happy to announce that Tavmjong Bah & Johan Engelen have been elected and have accepted their positions on the board. A few people had voted off-lists, however, it does not affect the results in the end (they actually had more votes including those). So, to Johan & Tav, congratulations and welcome aboard! :) Cheers, Josh

Build broken (gtkm 2_24)...
by Johan Engelen 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

Hi all, I just fixed the windows build. With the current devlibs, we need "#define WITH_GTKMM_2_24". If this is not correct than please revert devlibs first. Verify the revert using the online launchpad tool, then fix build.xml. Ciao, Johan

Select file to save to defaults to UPPERCASE
by Andrew Pennebaker 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

For some strange reason, the first time I go to save new SVGs, Inkscape defaults to UPPERCASE file names. It's like my Caps Lock key is working opposite of how it's supposed to. Specs: * Inkscape 0.48 * Windows 7 -- Cheers, Andrew Pennebaker www.yellosoft.us

margin when exporting to pdf
by Johan Engelen 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

Hi all, When I export to PDF, I generally use "area is drawing", (that has now been renamed to "exported object's size" but should be "selected object's size" I believe, or in case nothing is selected "drawing size" or something that current users will recognize). To create a little bit of breathing room for the drawing, I would like to add a little margin to the area of the drawing. Does this make sense to you to add to the export options? "Extra margin: 10 px" or whatever unit. Cheers, Johan

Hi. Im trying to optimice the spiro live curves. My first effort is to use the value in "/options/dragtolerance/value". But i need to know the previous position of p in SPEventContext. Could be posibol make a global var or is better save to a file? Or another option to save data temporary outside a function? Thanks in advance.

Thanks Johan. There are another posibility, is to calculate the spiro line in function of 2 vars, position and time, instead now is in every movement. The optional show of spiro could be another posibility but first test this option. The spiro calculation is a very big step to me now. Too i see the node tool for look his calculation of redraw the livepaths effects. I see how to implement and post. Hi.
