This is an output extension for color separation. I have a feeling that it is somewhat inadequate, but I'm unsure. Maybe the color experts here can give us a hint. JonCruz?! http://www.cimcomunica.com/site2/ Felipe Sanches

C++ string conversion
by Jon Cruz 09 Jun '12

09 Jun '12

Hi, I finished a simple writeup of converting C strings to C++ strings for our codebase. A couple of people asked me for this, but I thought it might be more generally useful. A shorter summary probably will be appropriate to get on the wiki at some point, but for now http://codewideopen.blogspot.com/2012/06/refactoring-c-to-c-part-2-strings.…

GtkObject stuff
by Alex Valavanis 08 Jun '12

08 Jun '12

Hi All, I've created a branch at lp:~inkscape.dev/inkscape/gtk_object_removal [1] in which I have started trying to rebase SPCanvasItem on GObject rather than GtkObject. I don't really know what I'm doing with Glib/GObject so I have made some (un)educated guesses about how to replace bits of the functionality! The code compiles and gets rid of a huge number of the remaining GTK+3 build errors, but there are major runtime issues (lots of crashes & Glib warnings). Please could someone who knows about Glib memory management take a look at this and give me a couple of pointers about what I'm doing wrong? Am I completely on the wrong track here? Thanks, Alex [1] http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/gtk_object_removal/chang…

Regarding variable thickness lines
by Sharad Dixit 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

hi, I am new to inkscape development . I'm not sure I have all the definitions perfectly clear, but I'll try to explain my query as well as I can. Is this functionality already exist in inkspace i.e to create a line of variable width which would allow us drawing curves but where each node could have its width set so that the line width changed from node to node. I've also tried a couple of other vector graphics programs, such as Illustrator and Xara but this functionality doesn't exist. Thanks a lot -- Sharad

Pass original file path to script extension
by Gerrit Karius 06 Jun '12

06 Jun '12

Hello everyone, I'd like to reference external svg files in my document and process them via an extension. I know that Inkscape will not render them, but I am using an external call to the Apache Batik framework which can resolve external dependencies. The problem is, extensions are called on a temporary copy of the current document (usually in some temp folder), so all relative path references are broken. Is there any way to make an extension call on the original file, or somehow pass that file reference to the extension as a parameter? I only found this forum thread where people are guessing that this is not possible:http://www.inkscapeforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1156 Does anyone of you devs know a workaround? Many thanks in advance,Gerrit

Verb for swap fill and stroke?
by Chris Mohler 05 Jun '12

05 Jun '12

Hi there. I thought it would be nice to add a verb to swap fill and stroke, but alas - I can't figure it out. I've pasted my feeble attempts below in case anyone has pointers. I barely dabble in C/C++ so I might be barking up the wrong tree entirely... Thanks, Chris Tried adding something like this to verbs: case SP_VERB_SELECTION_SWAP_FILL_STROKE: Inkscape::UI::Widget::SelectedStyle *ss; ss->on_fillstroke_swap(); break; But get this: ui/widget/selected-style.h:223:10: error: ‘void Inkscape::UI::Widget::SelectedStyle::on_fillstroke_swap()’ is protected verbs.cpp:1136:27: error: within this context

Layer verbs
by Kris De Gussem 03 Jun '12

03 Jun '12

Hi all Anyone who knows what happened to the verbs SP_VERB_LAYER_TOGGLE_LOCK and SP_VERB_LAYER_TOGGLE_HIDE? They are defined at lines 2450-2454 in verbs.cpp but do not seem to be used anymore. Could they be deleted or is some other change needed here? Kind regards K.
